Anyone ever had any luck recovering very old accounts? I don't think I have the CD keys anywhere, and god knows what email address I was using in 1999. I tried every possible combination

JakeP posted:Yeah, I did yesterday, and posted about it. The account I recovered was last played in 2004 Hmm... sadly I don't even have a clue what is the email address tied to it, but they gave me a list of ~ 7 things + the secret question. I don't know the CC nor the cd key. Hopefully the answers to the rest is enough.

So is eqplayers gone? I was trying to search for some old characters there but it just redirects to https://www.everquest.com and I don't see anyway to get to the eqplayers site from there

I somehow have 1000 station cash. Is it worth buying that 20 slot 100% WR box for 800 SC off the market place? Is there anything like that in the game? Is there a list somewhere of everything you can buy in the market place besides in game? Vomik fucked around with this message at 15:30 on Mar 22, 2012 |

xZAOx posted:I'd say no. Then again, I'm against paying money for in-game items period. In the OP he mentions how you can get like a 14 slot 100% WR light bag for like 5k. Yesterday someone finished all of the anniversary quests for some year and got like a 26-slot bag or something crazy. Well I wouldn't be paying any money for the items as I already have the station cash. I think it is on sale from 1500 to 800, but didn't know if there was something better to get

Does anyone by chance know a good AA guide for necros? I searched around but couldn't find anything... I'm also not sure how old something can be and still be relevant. In the same vein, should every class get innate run speed 5 as their first AAs?

Stack of Scabs posted:No loving way someone is that stupid. If you aren't even trying to go for the easy rear end anniversary augs, which are better than most augs from actual content, then just uninstall. Also, if you aren't stacking heroics on said augs then definitely uninstall. I literally don't know what any of this means. What are anniversary augs? I'm only level 56... should all my gear have augs in it? I haven't found any good ones nor do I have any money. What does "stacking heroics on augs" mean?

Merc slots are on sale for 800 SC each down from 1500. Yes you have to buy them from the marketplace. I don't think there is any other way.

So I was looking at my aa list and remembered dire charm (necro version). Did they end up keeping it up to date or is it only useful at 60? If so are there any good guides out there for places to use it? edit: for everyone's edification I looked it up and apparently it's awful and just left to flounder after POP Vomik fucked around with this message at 15:32 on Apr 4, 2012 |

I was thinking about starting an alt to my necro and was considering either Rogue or Monk. Are rogues completely unable to solo for xp/aa? I think monks are pretty good at it correct? Also, are monks capable group tanks at high levels? I kind of like the idea of playing a rogue but don't want to be forced to find a group just to get some aa at higher levels. I keep hearing about rogue poisons... does anyone know a guide to the ones that are creatable? I was hoping it would be in the allakhazam rogue spell/skill list but it isn't.

Archery is definitely less dps, but it can be kind of enjoyable to just shoot arrows with your tank merc tanking. It can break up the melee grinding. Especially because if I'm in melee range I always take aggro from my merc. Does anyone know when headshot gets useful? I have the first couple ranks and I went into Nurga and it was pretty slow compared to the non-stop grinding I can do in BFR. Occasionally I would kill the mob with all arrows and headshot wouldn't go off once.

MrTheDevious posted:No idea since I haven't been on in a week, but if the 12th anniversary group mission is still in, it's still possible as long as you have a high level character to mass slaughter level 65s for your shrouded PL bros. drat... I miss all the good stuff. On another note.. So as a ranger is it better to be dual wielding or using a 2hander? What are the advantages of each? Also, do people actually tank with a 1h+shield? I kind of remember that not being the case but that was a long time ago. AND last question... rangers are capable of tanking correct? I don't mean for high-end raids or anything of course.

DeathTongue posted:Yeah - up until now, it's been an enjoyable F2P MMO. Now, it's definitely feeling more like a classic rapeful MMO. Man do I miss EQ Release level XP penaltlies. No, not really. Ignore hot zone suggestions and those little mail things to "adventure here now that you're level X." Some are over-tuned and almost all are typically designed such that a full group of players is doing them, not solo/molo. Stick to the leveling guide in the OP or people can offer up alternatives if you don't want to do them.

Devor posted:Is there an easy to use combat parser (preferably with instructions on how to find the logs, etc)? I want to experiment with swapping out my second tank merc for a rogue / wiz and see how the damage compares. I know the recommendation was for a wizard merc for dps - but I've got so much haste / procs going on with my shaman and bard it seems hard to believe that a rogue wouldn't be competitive. Especially since right now (mid 60s) fights are so much shorter. In the 70s in Paw the rogue merc blows the wizard merc out of the water. Fights last literally half the time with the rogue. I have no clue how that compares at level 100 or J1 vs J5.

I might consider it, but my issue is eventually everyone is going to do it and then Sony is going to address it somehow. Once that happens there goes any work you put in on Test. That's my worry. I'm Lasombr (SK) Nosferaj (Shaman) Nephandi (Mage) Horkos (Nec) - Never log him in anymore Sombra (Ranger) - Never log him in anymore all on Luclin currently.

Medullah posted:Didn't they already do that a few years back? They allowed paid transfers off of Test for a period of time I believe last year (I think it corresponded with the move to FTP.) Additionally sometime in classic or maybe kunkar/velious they wiped the entire test server. A lot of people were upset (because people had test as their main server even back then), so they restored the characters (minus the equipment.)

MrTheDevious posted:This did not happen. They let us freely transfer off to a live server the one time Test changed at all and have NEVER wiped the server of higher than level 10 characters. If they change the Test status, they'll let us transfer again due to the large Test pop that would vanish overnight otherwise. The "paid" transfer came after me and a few others missed the free period and raised hell, that's it. Actually they did wipe the test server in 2000 about a year after launch IIRC. If you google it you'll find some mentions, but obviously that was 12 years ago so I don't think it's an indicator that they will wipe it again soon. And, like I said, they ended up restoring people's characters (minus equipment.)

JustJeff88 posted:Planar Power is an AA for all classes that raises the non-heroic stat cap for all ability scores by 5 points per level purchased. There are twenty levels each which are purchasable once per character level starting at 61 up until 80. The first 5 levels are 2 points each, which is fine. However, levels 6-20 are 5 points each, despite giving the same reward? Why? If I'm reading that guide to how experience is calculated this actually makes sense. Experience is based on some formula of mob level etc, but presumably as you're higher level you're killing higher level mobs therefore each mob is worth more xp / kill. The amount of experience required for one AA is constant, so if you had 0 aa and were level 100 and killed a level 100 mob vs level 60 and killed a level 60 mob, the level 100 would fill up his AA bar more. This doesn't take into account speed of killing nor zone experience modifiers obviously. Probably why The Hole and POF are so good at 70 and 80. Also it doesn't make much sense because I've seen AA lines that go 3/6/9/3/3/3.

How do you know testcopy isn't working? Will it send an error when you try to /testcopy or is it just it doesn't actually copy? I hit /testcopy last night but didn't really have any time to play so I thought it went through.

JustJeff88 posted:Okay, I must be thick, because I am more confused than ever. So the pre-nerf circlet is only usable by SK/Necromancer, but is instant-cast, no cooldown, 20 minute duration, but the post-nerf one has a longer casting time but can be clicked from inventory by anyone? I know that I am making a meal of this, but I would like to know why people bang on and on about this. It was in the game for like one patch, it was the first ever (?) instant cast invis and it worked for 2 of the 3 classes that could feign death. It also predated all AAs. It's a very rare item and people love collecting. It's not much use now once an SK/Nec gets the cloak of shadows AA.
