*** WARNING *** about new server - Progression server...Follow

#1 May 14 2006 at 3:14 PM Rating: Decent
As I understand the new progression server will be like EQ Day 1. If the loot rules still apply then I just wanted to make a comment on some of the new players that never played EQ back in the old days.
If and only IF this rule will apply:

Back in the days when you died you could consent and have other players pull your corpse for you just like today... HOWEVER if you give them consent they could loot your corpse as well unlike how it is today that they can only "Pull" your corpse and not "LOOT" it.

Just thought I would give some of the newer players a heads up on this if the rules will apply and changes are put back to EQ day 1 rules.

Anyone else remember any tidbits for this for the newer players?
Cant remember any more off the top of my head but this was one of the most important ones I could remember.

I'm pretty sure they're not reverting back to all the rules of the old days. I believe they're simply removing all of the zone access to the stuff that existed post-old world.

i don't think some people realize how simple this is going to be. It ISNT going tp be EQ day 1. It is what Brudish said, EQ like it is today, with zones blocked off for later expansions.

They are not reverting back to the stupidities of the old eq back when it first came out.

The whole point of it is to progressive where u unlock the other expansions by beating certain encounters. Whether each player will have to do it or it just needs to be done once, I have no idea how they will implement it.

There is NO ONE who said anything about making the game like it was back in the old days where u can loot players corpses and have charm spells with fixed duration, having to sit and open your spell book to med, use of boats for transportation, and all of the other crap that people would just quit the server if they had to endure again. As I remember it, didn't corpse have something like a 30 min timer before rotting? Surely they wont go back to that.

Nice try but the only thing I got out of this post was a few laughs.

I am assuming that the BST won't be available until Luclin is unlocked though.

I could be wrong though.

Correct, devs have stated that races (i.e. frogloks, iksars) & classes (i.e. beastlords, berserkers) that were not available until later expansions will not be available until that expansion is unlocked.

/rant

Please stop making lengthy threads that repeat the same crap about the progression server.

Get off your lazy ***** and do a forum search!

I swear this same thread has been written 4 times now, just with a different name.

/rant off

I really hope this one gets deleted.

does that include the race/class combo as well as the xp penalty for hybrid/knights?

as for search, that is only available for those who have a prem. account. i refuse to pay any money to a company that is owned by the same company that owns IGE.
