The Irreverent - Solo Server

Irreverent · #1 05-29-2007, 10:45 AM

Greetings,

We have setup a new server that is semi-legit. The game is based of the most recent version of PEQ. It has been highly modified, with the spirit of "everything can be done solo". HOWEVER no one will have GM rights, so you have to earn it the old fashioned way....through fighting. Always wanted to solo Vox, clear to the top of PoA? Now you can, with some rules modified(like death touch removed) we are trying to bring everyone together, with a different mentality. You can still group, as well as get a bonus, but that is up to you. You're in our world now...

Update:

First part of beta:

We're running two servers, one under minilogin(sorry!), but the live one is the down-tuned database. The minilogin server is running the peq database, but we added a unique charm-slot item, per class, and am trying to balance it's progrogression(rec'level of 70) so it scales in a way that the item will keep your level soloable against solo-lvl mobs. Obviously we've still twinking the non-solo fun like death touch.

But visit us and give us feedback in our forums!

A warning for anyone that wants to try this server.

The Admin is reffered to as "vicious" and "lethal" by other players on the server (in /ooc) and quick to pass judgment on anyone suspected of any kind of "sneaky behavior".

While not trying anything sneaky at all, just asking a question, in a calm rational fashion i was banned from their server without warning.

I tried to voice what had happened with the misunderstanding, again in a rational manner , with the GM on their forums, and i was again banned from their
forums.

Asking a guide about an item disappearing from your inventory should not be grounds for banishment. That's what happened to me, i had been lagging like crazy, running 2 different clients on 2 different computers on 2 different accounts, and a few items poofed, 1 of the items was a very recent gift from a fellow player there. I asked about it, and suddenly i am convicted and banned for simply bringing it to the admin's attention.

But hey, it's their server they can run it any way they want to. This is just my heads up for anyone who plans playing there so they do not waste their time like I did.

Isolated incidents happen. No need to be trying to cause a panic in the community about it. If it was unfair, it happens, move on. I have been playing there, and I enjoy it. Irreverent is very quick to look into and fix any problems you might have. All of the players I know are great people, always willing to help people, always looking for fun and new players.

For everyone reading this thread, please don't let the ramblings of one disgruntled player dissuade you from coming in and having a chat with us. We look forward to meeting you all there.

Cheers Irreveant for getting your server going. Took a look at your site and It looks pretty sweet. If you keep on top of it and provide good support you may be able to keep it going for a while. Most people just start a server and say here ya go. Good to see you take the time to create a website and make some internet precense for your server.

Just on a side note though. Dont make it TOO easy as it can get boring once people start to top out at end-game situations. Make some challange for people to go through, but dont make a grind machine like EQ was.

Anyhow, Cheers again and good luck!

I'm going to let everyone know how the GM/Admin people treat players there and how irrational they behave. and Yes i have moved on.
The truth stands, as i told Irreverent in the post on the forums, treat everyone this way, and i assure you, your player population will stay low and easy to manage.

servers down, just wondering if it will come back up today... im beginning to have withdraw symtoms, thanks!

Irreverent · #9 07-17-2007, 12:19 PM

Hah, sorry! Every morning there is basically a patch. So you probably were on during that time. However, yesterday was a huge patch.

-Mobs have a major overhaul and now scale their HP in the same way PCs
-All the temp-fix charms have been removed, so now its more like EQLive where you rely more on your gear than fighting behind your charm.

Hopefully you like the changes because now how the server is tuned more appropriately in the long run. The charm, while nice and powerful, was way too nice and powerful. It was basically the only gear you needed. So now hopefully we can go back to focusing on the game, and get that solo experience we've been looking for.

I've been getting the urge to play EQ. I think I might stop by and see how things are on the Irrelevant server. Judging from peoples' experiences plus reading the FAQ on the website, it looks very interesting.

Oops. I misspelled Irreverent. My bad.

Irreverent · #12 07-20-2007, 08:42 AM

Well we're looking forward to seeing you! It is a unique experience, that has finally become the final version of the solo version that everyone enjoys.

(And don't worry, I type too fast sometimes and mispell it too)

SourCelery · #13 06-13-2008, 12:10 PM

Sounds like an interesting server, but I can't find the FAQ on your site... I sincerely hope you don't mean the FAQ link at the top of the page, as that's only a FAQ for the forums, and has nothing at all to do with your server.

First off, this server is a blast.

You can solo your epic. I have a lvl 70 ranger I recently leveled up and geared in time (if you get a good duo you can clear time in an hour). I just completed my 1.0 tonight (my 8th on the server). I have also done four 2.0s and will be working on my 5th.

1.5 and 2.0 quest pieces do require a good group in the single custom zone in the game.
