Bonus experience of all kinds!! Friday Feb 12th at 3pm PST until Monday Feb 15th at 11:59pm PST!!

EQ2 Patch, seems to have fixed most of the database lag issues...

Celestian — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 02:13:00 GMT

Patch note:

"Ability commands such as “useability” are now being throttled in an effort to cut down on server lag. This means that “mega-macros” that attempt to cast many spells will no longer work as expected. Housing zones and persistent instances will now automatically shutdown after one hour of inactivity. Any AFK players left in the zone will be camped back to the character select screen. You may still AFK indefinitely in overland zones, city zones and non-persistent dungeons."

Everquest II: Sentinels Fate, Odus for EQ2

Celestian — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 20:33:00 GMT

The new expansion coming out 2/16/2010 will have Odus, push the level cap to level 90 and includes all previous packs and expansions. If you're wanting to try it out let me or someone know playing, you can get recruited and get a triple EXP bonus for 90 days which will get ya zipping up to everyone elses level while we mentor ya.

Spam gone in Aion

Celestian — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 12:37:00 GMT

NCSoft has implemented some sort of filters or auto-ban or something that has all but stopped the spam. Thank gawd, you can use the lfg channels now with blocking spammers repeatedly.

So now where is that quest EXP miracle patch?

Player Created Spam filter for AION

Celestian — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:32:00 GMT

Player created tool that uses a proxy filter method to block spam in Aion. If you hate spam like me it might be something you'll want to use till NCsoft does it.

Aion, Open Beta, Headstart and Relase dates

Celestian — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 16:16:00 GMT

Within the next four weeks, we will treat European and North American gamers to two opportunities to jump into the world of Aion and explore Atreia as Asmodian or Elyos characters ahead of its release in Europe on 25nd September and North America 22th September. Aion's Open Beta Test featuring version 1.5 will take place 6-13th September and will include numerous Western enhancements, including improvements to Aion's innovative character customization with a host of Western styles, as well as new zones, instances, skills, quests and continued game balancing and improvements. Open Beta will retain a level cap for both Elyos and Asmodians characters at 30 allowing players to focus on getting to the same level so they can explore the lands of Atreia together, as well as the Abyss.

Players who have pre-ordered Aion will be treated to a Pre-Select and a two-day Headstart period giving them the opportunity to explore, organize and progress through the game prior to the official launch. Pre-Select will take place on 18th September, while Aion's Headstart will begin 20th September. Players can still participate in the Aion's Pre-Select and Headstart programs by pre-ordering the game through several participating online and brick-and-mortar retailers.

3.1 is out, 4 Horsemen and Loatheb get smacked down.

Celestian — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 17:04:00 GMT

This week we kicked Loatheb and the 4 Horsemen for the first time and then to our amazement 3.1 went live Tuesday!

Be sure to check the in-game calendar as we are trying to work out a few 10-man raid days. Right now I am moving the days around every week till we can figure out what works best for the population.
