With a bard as your CC, I would say consider building a melee oriented group. I also like the idea of using actual accounts, and down the road as Sic mentioned consider a krono or two or three.

I hope this helps. https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/getting-started-on-the-test-server.82550/

Nothing but positive thoughts and well wishes to the new team. I saw the banner message is still up, so I am guessing there could be some challenges. Keep the faith people.

I did not realize that Project 1999 actually had an agreement with EQ. I guess that made it a semi-official/unofficial project. Now I can understand why DBG hired some of the P99 folks to work on EQ Legends. It was like P99 was the minor league development, to borrow a baseball analogy.

On Live and Test, I have been running an SK tank for my caster group. Was thinking about doing the same when I try emu. I have used both frogs and gnomes on Live and Test, but on regular EQ racial differences don’t seem to really matter. Not really into running an Ogre or Troll SK. Maybe I just...

@questor56 I am not too far behind you, so I can definitely relate to what you are saying.

Sorry for being so general and vague. If I give Emu a whirl, I think I am leaning heavily towards Lazarus but I was keeping my options open and did not want to close any doors before the appropriate time. Appreciate the help and feedback. I think I definitely want to use RGMercs, so for me...

Stupid question of the day. Does racial choice have a major impact on attribute stats when playing on Emu servers? Aside from being KoS in some areas and appearance, I has wondering how much the choice of race played on gameplay on the Emu servers. On Live, the stats from gear more than make up...

OK. I wasn’t sure if servers in each group had common features or content or whatever to make them similar, so I guess the groupings of Legends, Preferred, or Standard have no real bearing on anything? I would imagine,then, that the color coding is also meaningless? @Algar thanks for the fast...

To keep my options open about EQ going forward, I have been poking around and trying to do some “research” seeing as I have only played Live and Test. I had heard about Project99 and saw various references here on RG about Project Lazarus. I initially thought I would try Lazarus but when I...

I am reminded of a saying back in the Fortran V days, “Garbage in equals garbage out. “ in my humble opinion, an algorithm is only as good as the source information, and the amount of quality information, from which it draws its conclusion. Just like in statistics, if the sample size is not...

Seeing as RB just posted this thread on Monday, perhaps we should let the dust settle and see how things look in a week or two. Money does not always solve all challenges.

Shouldn't it be Taco Tuesday?

Thanks Sic and Ryn. I am an old dog so learning new tricks might be a bit difficult. I was/am leaning towards Mercs and was just trying to take the pulse of the community and see if there was any consensus choice, so to speak. Appreciate the fast response and sorry about initially posting in...
