Figured I would chime in here! Here's some info on NL:
Main Idea of the Server: Progression is character based. You are stuck in classic until you unlock Kunark for yourself by destroying all of the bosses of the old world. We only opened 3 weeks ago, but the quest to unlock kunark is open and ready. All of our content is soloable or duoble at worst except for whichever the latest expansion that is available. So as soon as Kunark is released next friday, all of Classic and planes becomes soloable. This helps new players catch up faster, gives casual players the chance to explore and advance at their own pace, and gives our hard core guys intense group/raid content at the higher end. All content through POP is an old school nostalgic romp through Norrath. All expansions after POP are custom creations of our team.
Here are a few things about the experience that makes NL different:
Hub Zone: Guildlobby with clicky server charm to go there
Porter, Buffer, Guildleaders for each class, banker and merchants in hub zone.
Easy Mobs: Mob strength has been reduced to 80% hp, maxhit, str, dex, agi, resists etc. at hghest expansion level. Reduced farther for under 30 mobs.
Mob casters can only use spells that are 4/5th their level even at high level
No corpse recovery: You spawn with all your gear. Corpses are just for xp rez.
No downtime. Out of combat HP, End, & Mana regen is 20% per tick
No camping. Placeholders are removed in most areas! All named spawn!
Learn faster: Skills are learned at 400% live rate.
Ding-Saves: When you level, your hp and mana automatically go full!
Criticals!! Everyone can crit melee and spells at 2% rate. Some classes are 4%!
Boxing okay! You don’t need to box; ,but you can box 1 extra character if you like
Active Forums: Almost 600 posts in 200 topics in only 3 weeks!

Medal of Honor Quests: Headhunter-style optional quests give you the opportunity to re-live all of the encounters you fought in original eq for nostalgia and nice rewards!

Class Enhancements
We take immersive roleplay aspects of each class and fuction in game to make EVERY class more fun and better equipped to Norrath. For example, we have a high damage line of Bows for Ranger that offer severe ranged power at an AC cost, so they become TRUE ranged DPS when choosing the longbow line as a weapon! For a complete view of how we have made each class more playable and enjoyable please check out
