Sorry folks for the site downtime. Our web server died on us and we had to order a new server, configure it, recover all the data and transfer it offsite to a backup location and then put everything back on the new server.
We're still working on getting lucy up and running and there are some issues with uploaded images not displaying. We'll get all that fixed soon.
Thank you all for your patience and being supportive of us!
We do have plans to move the site to a better hosting solution soon that gives the site more flexibility and redundancy in case of a hardware failure happens again in the future.
Edit: Lucy is up and so are uploaded images.
In this update, new comments were caught up to tonight.
Some Distillate potions expansions were corrected to this post on the Daybreak forums. I'm still going through all of them. Some that have been changed already are not listed in the below updates.
Also we need some help from folks doing Ring of Scale content. For those running the item collector, we need folks to activate the Ring of Scale personal tribute effects for a quick second and then can deactivate. This will upload an invisible item to lucy that has the stat of the tribute effect you activated. I'm trying to update the Tribute page for Ring of Scale effects and I need the cost of each one and the required level.

For those that play on Coirnav, Ruins of Kunark is opening tomorrow at 2pm PT. We have plenty of info about Kunark here on the site.
Checkout our progression wiki for Kunark where we have some info on it. I just added a section showing where all the agent of changes are located for all the raids. I'll work on adding some more information on that page.

I just finished up work on the spell history database tables and will be updating this large table probably sometime this week over a few days to spread out the workload. The updates address some limitations that existed in the main spell table and the history table that cut off spell information. The main spell database has already been corrected but those corrections won't be visible until we run the spell parser again which will happen when the next eq patch hits.
