I'm just about to start playing and I'm looking for the same thing. I want an old school classic eq, I was thinking about joining the pvp server but I would also like a good old pve old school server. Any suggestions? Please help me decide.

Most of the classic servers are only PvP, as the classic aspect of the game doesn't hold many PvE players since you can literally run through the whole thing very quickly with the knowledge that is spread across the Internet. You can find a classic PvE server, but it won't have a playerbase.

The PvP aspect of EverQuest was actually extremely balanced, considering many other MMORPG's attempt at PvP. I wouldn't recommend the TVZ server though.

I have been working on a PVE classic server for a couple months now and have a few people testing. It meets the criteria of your list.

I plan to keep it in beta until everything that is fixable per database and source is done. You are welcome to come check it out. Maybe catch some things that we have missed and make suggestions for a good pve classic.

Server name is appropriately.. "testing do not play yet"

Just finished building a classic cazic thule zone and I'm quite proud of it.

Other things of interest..
progressive through velious
almost complete classic runnyeye, pre-pickclaw invasion.
correct loot drop %s!
rare and very rare classic mobs included.

Hope to see you soon or upon release.

Spells are also available in the original level spans...for example, spells for robe casters were 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 29, 35, 39, 44, 49. This server uses that formula. Nilbog has done a great job so far.

Yeah, Testing Dont Play Yet is the best server out there. We have worked hard and are working hard to make sure it is the best!! Nilbog is a hero! 3 Cheers for Nilbog!
