not being able to fight back when you are getting pked may be the dumbest idea ever in the history of horrible pvp ideas in eqemulator to be honest

Smedy 08-08-2006 09:20 PM

i have to agree here, not being able to fight back is bad. Sure its hard winning a fight as a lvl 30 vs a lvl 50, but think about it, if youre 3-4 good lvl 30 vs a lvl 50 and you know what youre doing, you could easly beat the lvl 50, that what was so good about EQ, skill applies to pvp

easyest way to solve everything i would say FFA only that its a 10/10 level range up/down that you can attack.

So at lvl 50 you can attack minimum lvl 40 and at lvl 10 you can attack maximum lvl 20 etc...

Hows the server coming? Dont wanna stress but it would be cool if we could get a idea on how kind of a big issue you guys are having with the server. That would maybe give us the ability to figure out the ETA ourselves..

exactly, one on one, as a level 30, i'm screwed by a 50, even if he is a retard. by the mechanics of the game... but say i'm in a group... and some 50 comes walking by and attacks one of us... say the cleric... thats pretty crappy the the rest of the group can't help defend their guy...

magemali 08-09-2006 04:14 AM

So is this the logic?

- a 30 can't attack a 50 to provoke him from attacking back and losing the level?

Anyway,

I cringe when I ask this because I know the guy with the red name is going to jump down my throat but, it would be great to get some kind of eta. We all know how thankless running an EMU can be so i ask the question not out of impatience only curiosity. Oh, and burning desire for old school eq pvp.

I have a feeling the news isn't good.

Does anyone know if the lucid vision server is going live end of the month?

klamath 08-09-2006 05:21 AM

Ok a change. if a 30 attacks you your free to kill him without pvp debt.

i know this want the best idea.

klamath 08-09-2006 05:22 AM

And aftar reading PEQ forums i am going to give them our quest pack once we done some touching up. so it should help everyone out a little bit.

mattmeck 08-09-2006 05:52 AM

Locked due to the request of the server owner.

He will start a new thread when the server is ready.

mattmeck 08-21-2006 12:15 AM

klamath 08-21-2006 04:36 AM

joedan 08-21-2006 10:30 AM

Silenteer 08-21-2006 05:00 PM

joedan 08-21-2006 05:38 PM

klamath 08-22-2006 05:19 AM

joedan 08-23-2006 02:41 PM

Any more info?

MrBlueberry 08-24-2006 05:00 PM

got a few Q's dont really want to look throuugh all the pages sorry but

Will this server have the "Noob" armor quests?

The dmg cap on weapons will it be old school like at lvl 20 dmg cap is off instead of like 35 like it is now in live?

Also will you be able to "Bind" yourself in the server? at a soulbinder or off a player's Spell: Bind Affiny?

Thanks these are very important to me

craig069 08-26-2006 06:33 AM

Remove another article of clothing, already !!!







(to those curious, no, I'm not meaning that literally.)

joedan 08-27-2006 02:57 PM

Did he disappear again? :o

klamath 08-27-2006 07:04 PM

I have not gone just trying to avoid the thread a little why we get work cracked on. i don't want all any eta's and stuff yet. the thread was open to post your suggestions and what you would like to see in the server. We are not ready to give out an ETA yet.

Smedy 08-27-2006 10:35 PM

woah, that problems gotta be huge, hope you guys get it solved

craig069 08-28-2006 05:54 AM

on xp gain
 
I'm just curious as to people's preference to having such high xp gain that they're 50 inside of a week, 2 tops.

a) doesn't that make the vast majority of the world pointless to be in?

b) I've seen the arguments, "i don't want to wait for months for people to be lvl 50 to PvP with..." and "we all have leveled up several characters to max levels already, so don't want to repeat the process..." . In response to that, why even have leveling at all then, just start a server with 4 zones that drop all the crazy loot you want, and make everyone the max level at character creation so everyone can pvp at once, and everyone will be in a 4 zone radius.

I just don't get the point of having a huge world with all the available zones, that are mostly going to be filled with green mobs you don't pay attention to, hell you probably won't go into those zones at all.


PvP if fought throughout the entire leveling process makes the server that more interesting and fun. Where leveling (and the mobs) are as hard as in original EQ, then PvP deaths are agonizing, create deep emnities, etc.... PvP deaths on a server where it takes 10 mob kills to get a level and a half don't matter at all, and people bragging about ganking on such a server seem trivial .....

I'm trying to grasp where a lot of people are coming from here, toss me a bone, please?

(example, I started a necro on sullon zek here, and was level 20 inside of a few hours, and only had to purchase about 8 spells during that timeframe.... wtf !?! ... thats cheezier than Oblivion after you goofed around for half an hour in god mode, transporting yourself to quest targets because you're sick of the long travel times....man did that ruin the game for me)

MrBlueberry 08-28-2006 07:22 AM

long travels are fun they are an adventure in themselves thats what me and my friend did in RZ, id like maybe 1.5 zp gain i dont mind leveling its cool but no gear fresh server? leveling takes Forever...maybe half would not make it so long, but also not may it so easy.


but ya I get what your saying

ill play either way don't matter to me =)

joedan 09-01-2006 04:23 PM

Any news? Thread has been opened a while

A) No, it dosnt make the vast majority of the world to be in pointless.. did you even play eq on a pvp server? There are things called factions, where you raise or decline for killing certain mobs. People on real pvp servers tend to stick to one area as there "home turf" and get max faction there. Secondly, who wants to run around in four zones?! There are so many ways to have interesting pvp all over norrath I think that is just limiting.

B) Four zones? With all the loot you want? No! Then groups of 5 could run in circles and kill anyone trying to level up AKA ruining the game. Even if you enabled some sort of no ganking rules that would still suck. There would be 0 point to even playing this version due to lack of "hunt and chase", no effort to getting items you want (i.e. FBSS, SMR, FBR, JBoots ect.). Thus lowering the ammount of time taken from your character when I kill him and take his items. Alot of the players on sullon zek are old school pvpers, they don't want "deathmatch mode" pvp like World of Warcraft or Guild Wars! That type of pointless "don't care if I die" mentality is what drove us away from those games.

Last, you played a necro. The #1 solo class in the game. If you think the game was too easy.. roll a ranger or warrior. Get back to me when you make 50 with one of those non solo class characters k thnx =)

EverCrackAj 09-02-2006 04:50 PM

Umm Just Woundering
 
Umm i was just woudnering. I've been reading up on this thread for a while. and i never did see a link to any website. and i was just woundering if this server ever went up. or if they got a website working yet. some information would be great. this sounds like the best server made. and i would really like to play :-)

mysticalninja 09-03-2006 04:14 PM

Still being working on? God Damn this would wtfpwnomgz.

Any new news? been over 3 weeks now, thought we'd atleast know what's going on by now

EverCrackAj 09-06-2006 05:36 PM

oh well
 
Oh well. if its as good as they say it is going to be then it is worth the wait. and untell then and even after its release back to zebuxoruk. :-) the server that will always be best in my heart

Smedy 09-06-2006 08:16 PM

wait is kinda long, im saying, dont wait just check back on the forums every once in awhile, if it opens, it opens... if not, well then no difference..

my intuition says that it wont open as it was suppose to open 2 months ago, and my guess is that the problems theyve faced might be to huge to solve over a few months time

can always hope for a chance though, but these people are doing this for free, so dont expect anything..

EverCrackAj 09-07-2006 04:35 AM

umm
 
Ummm. yeah what i said only worded better :p now back to zebuxoruk.

klamath 09-07-2006 05:43 AM

Progress is still going on but we thought we would have it up by now to tell you the truth but the wait will be longer then planed. The main coder as gone on holiday for 3 weeks so we just doing little bits with out him there but hes got a ton of work todo when he gets back. Like smedy said just keep checking back to this topic.

Thanks for your time. and it will be worth the wait. but just enjoy other servers untill we open thanks.

Z.Wylde 09-26-2006 03:44 AM
