Frens of Akalabeth (UO)
>Client: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gXDjk58BMOB3ezZtq5hjQtBNfVFom8cx/view

FoA is my personal fork of Ultima Memento which is a fork of Adventurers of Akalabeth which is a fork of Ruins & Riches which is a fork of UO Odyssey by Djeryv. It's UO remade to be played as a single-player or small group sandbox adventure. This server has been running in one form or another for almost 2 years, although we wiped in March for the switch to Memento as its base. The way I've always described it is a shared single-player experience. My notable changes:
>Boss HP scaling based on number of players and non-summoned followers engaging them.
>Neutral and evil monster races must maintain 2.5k and 5k fame/karma respectively to enter most towns.
>Unlike other trade skills, Alchemy does count toward the skill cap.
>Trade skills that gave a direct combat bonus no longer give that bonus.
>Tracking now gives a percentage weapon and spell damage bonus against the tracked mob equal to 25% of your Tracking skill.
>Town Guards don't instagib and are killable, but they're still really tough.
>Trail Maps reworked to a non-magic recall system.
>Lower Reagent Cost capped at 80%.
>Player corpse bones persist for a year, so other players who come through a dungeon will know you died there months ago.

SoloQuest (EQ)
http://discord.gg/Ct3HFSHZBj
>Client
You'll need to get a copy of the RoF2 client. It's not as widely available as it once was, but if you google "EQ rof2 download" you'll find it.
Download and extract the server's zone and client files into your main EQ directory: https://mega.nz/file/LRgW0SqS#xdc-XYwIzM6hv3xyBX6-J7l22Df4gN7zoFcoI3UyWIc
Also, delete or rename bazaar.eqg, lavastorm.eqg, nektulos.eqg, and highpasshold.eqg

Make a forum account at eqemulator.org. That will be your login account.
Find SoloQuest in the server list and connect.SoloQuest was designed with the same "shared single-player experience" philosophy as Frens of Akalabeth. As you can guess by the name, it's EQ re-balanced for solo play. There are a lot of changes and you can read about them all here: https://www.eqemulator.org/index.php?pageid=serverinfo&worldid=4400

Kunark and Velious are good, but the old world is sooo much better. It's honestly a lot of wasted potential, most of the content doesn't matter. Even back in 99 most of the gear was useless.
It's too bad. Those original zones were the bones and soul of EQ. Now levels 1-50 is just something to rush through so you can get to the goodie skinner box rewards.

Is this the right place to ask if something like P99 is worth picking up as someone who has never touched EQ? How populated are the lower levels?

SoloQuest admin here. Once I'm done fixing quest scripts and balancing raid events, I'm considering a couple additions to the server. First is a basic hardcore mode where you opt in at level 1 and that's it, your character is deleted on death. No special rules or conditions and no enforced solo self found or anything.The second is a remort system where at any point after level 51 you can reroll to a different class and keep all of your current CLASS AA ranks. General and archetype aren't kept and you can't add anymore ranks to your old class AAs after you remort. I'm really iffy on doing this because I like class identity and limitation, but it's an idea I had that I think is pretty cool in theory. Thoughts?

If there are failed attempts at a previously completed ring before the Arbitor is spawned, it remains completed in the zone logic until the remaining rings are completed and the Arbitor is spawned.

Alright you convinced me to try either soloquest or P99 to see what all the nostalgia is about, looking at either warrior or bard, what's the difference aren't they both tanks classes the wiki says they both wear plate armor but doesn't seem to say anything about warriors using magic?How are they supposed to heal outside combat?
