Taled said: ↑ “ For what it's worth, the unlock for the Collection and Advancement researchers are both account wide. Granted, only one collection piece can be researched on your account at a time, but every toon can research an item on the Advanced Researcher at all times. (But you have to be 130 to research the unattuner) ”

Where is the gear merchant by the way? (I’m assuming there’s one like that lady in Forlorn Gist). Saw the collection one, the one with the fabled mount, etc. I just wondered.

I agree with making them heirloom. I've gotten 4 different ones on my overseer toon / chemist and they just sit in his inventory. I like doing the overseer on a crafter alt because of all the potions, mat, and clutter items that i can sort into his empty bag space.

• I recommend avoiding swapping between spirit stones if you only have 1 level 126 Ring keep the 1st one for your Achievement stone, as completing certain overland collections also awards achievement experience for that stone.
• Alternatively You can obtain a 126 Necklace from a Jeweller, Complete and Turn-in 1 level 130 Collection, Slot the Awarded Rune in your necklace and forgo the KD Rune Buffs, until you obtain the correct drops/rewards.

Yes ty! I come to this post all the time when I am trying to adorn a character I haven't leveled yet!  

• Apr 1, 2024

Did this for one of my Illusionist, and made a whole bunch of survivability status for her. Health still goes down fast, but my merc keeps me up well enough and she does faster and more damage than before, was able to do the RoR sig line zones names without getting 1-shotted. Thanks from a grateful Illy.

I'm a returning player and can't seem to find stat caps anywhere. Could target goals for stats be added into this guide? What is suggested for HP, Potency, etc for the Zimara zones?  

• Apr 14, 2024

I just wanted to point out that this guide is great and all but none of this pre stuff is required to do the BOZ signature quest line...I would suggest any new or returning players that purchased the expac go right to barren sky get the sig quest and start the signature from there and just follow the quest...it goes over getting your mount, merc and familiar. In a really simple way... It gives you all the gear you need to do solo/duo zones. You may need to repeat the solo zones you can do a few times to get the few gear items with resolve for your class and your merc need.(don't forget to gear the merc as well) Even as you get into Heroic one zones, it's not needed...As you progress in heroic 1 and into heroic 2, you want to have all the pre stuff done...by that point you should have a really good grasp on things and not feal as overwhelmed... But first while doing the signature quest just enjoy it, keep it simple. It is actually fun I just returned to live and did this on a pally, inq and now working on a ranger. I was about to give up after reading these guides myself, but I said screw it and just started to do the quest with what I had, and it was fine. You may not one shot 20 mobs at once. And if you get stuck on a boss in a solo zone, just keep in mind it is a 2-person zone so I'm sure if you asked in chat a lvl 130 with all that great stuff would be more than happy to blow up everything in the zone for you.

For sure i agree with you it’s helpful but it also comes off as do this before anything and that’s just not the case. The pre stuff is boring and confusing at first. I’ve been playing on Tle’s for years and prior to that i played live from launch till 2010, I’m not new to the game. But i still find this guide as a deterrent and most people i talk to on tle agree, is the reason they will never try live. Who wants to buy an expansion and be told you have to do old content first, when that is just not the case. Buy the expac, make a character, use the boost to 125, start the signature quest follow along that for character progression, get hooked cause there really isn’t anything that compares to eq2, then do all the other stuff to better your character. I didn’t even use a single ascension skill or upgrade a spell for the pally and inq. The ranger is proven to be a little harder but that could be because i never made one, put a shield on and defensive stance helped on the bosses. I’m doing a mage next, probably illy.

Taled said: A lot of folks get upset at the idea of 'having' to go to Kael to get that neck, when it certainly isnt mandatory, as silly as it is that it is the only third green adorn. Or g'having' to do the panda, though you absolutely dont HAVE to do it. Click to expand...

Anyone know the resolve requirements for the purchased gear crates? Thanks!  

I don't think the gear crates are tied to resolve, but are tied into content. I think you need to have finished a Weekly H1 quest and have the correct amount of tokens/status in order to see the first crate, Next needs the H2 Weekly and again Correct amount of tokens/status. 3rd Is visible after killing the first Raid Boss and having the correct amount of tokens/status (There does seem to be a theme for actually seeing anything on the merchants). I am not sure what the requirements are for any further Crates though.  

• May 21, 2024

For the panda quests, do i need to have finished the 2021/22 quests or can just start the 2023 ones. i know before it was a requirement.  

most of the quests are 130 or higher - how do you level from 125 to 130

Research is a pretty inconsistant Tradeskill on TLP’s. 243 is going to be the max you can get Research for a while on a new TLP until you can create PoP spells, which takes place 3 expansions after PoP.

This is a patch note from back in 2017:

As of 10/18/21 I received some feedback that the patch note appears to refer to Researchable spells PoP+ .

What does this mean? It means many spells prior to PoP (but maybe not all) should still be researchable in era (i.e. Kunark thru Luclin), but PoP+ spells are not until 3 expansions later have unlocked.

You can find a list of the Classic Researchable spells >>> HERE <<<.

**Once Binding Powder starts to drop in Secrets of Faydwer you’ll have another path to continue Research as well. **

Research Leveling Guide

Each class arch-type uses its own combine box for research combines. Beastlords seem to be able to use two. They are:

Hybrid Research Kit: PAL RNG SHD BST Prayer Writing Kit: CLR DRU SHM BST Song Writing Kit: BRD Spell Research Kit: NEC WIZ MAG ENC Tome Binding Kit : WAR MNK ROG BER

You can find these at vendors in each hometown. Do an in game FIND on “a spell research merchant” to find a merchant that sells them.

EQ2 Forum Update Notes - February 8, 2022

Discussion in ' The News Feed! ' started by Daybreak Post Tracker - , Feb 7, 2022 .

Daybreak Post Tracker - Guest

ABILITIES Beastlord Increased the base multiplier on the Beastlord Primal melee attack ability type to 2.007. Note that this is the raw multiplier applied to all primal melee attacks, before the specific ability multiplier is applied. For example, when Truespirit Venom is cast at level 125, it gets the raw multiplier of 2.007, then multiplies that by the specific ability multiplier of 40, calculates it's max variance, and applies stat multipliers, and in the case of primal's Savagery etc multipliers. Coercer Corrected an issue that caused the crit bonus buff from Enhance Mind's Eye to lose it's tier multiplier on non-timelocked servers. Conjuror Corrected an issue with Chilling Winds that caused it to fail to apply the effectiveness modifier. Necromancer Reduced the base and overtime damage multiplier for Boil Blood to 33.05. Shaman Ancient Claws is now a triggered effect instead of a ability that the pet casts. Sorcerer Corrected a display bug with Enhance: Ice Flame that caused it to indicate it increased poison spells, instead of Flames of Velious. Warlock Corrected a display issue with Poison Mastery that caused it to erroneously claim to adjust Flames of Velious instead of poison spells. Corrected an issue with Toxic Assault that caused the previous increase to not be applied. Increased the base damage of Toxic Assault from 49.73 to 63.107. Corrected an issue with Abhorrence that caused the previous increase to not be applied. Increased the base damage of Abhorrence from 7.776 to 17.184. COLLECTIONS Royal Thexian Crest- This "In the Royal Chambers" collection item no longer shares the same name as another collectible. The Beloved Queen - This "Canvases of Mayong" collection item no longer shares the same name as another collectible. ITEMIZATION Items found in the Icy Keep raid have been adjusted to have appropriate stats. Items found in Sleeper's Tomb dungeons have been adjusted to have appropriate stats. Corrected an issue that caused Gadsin's Zombified Eyeball to be missing a red adornment slot. Thadampos will once again sell Cask of Illumination [Tier 12"> and above. Corrected an issue that prevented the Forlorn Barding of the Potent and Vacrul Barding of the Potent from granting stats. Various old appearance-only items have been updated to allow all classes to equip them, including the following items: Steadfast Defender's Platemail. Steadfast Defender's Scalemail. Dessicated Ghoul Fist. Gertrude's Ornamental Stein. Gnobrin's Ornamental Weapon of Choice. Ornamental Blade of the Shadow Lurker. Ornamental Fist Cushion. Ornamental Staff of Destiny. Ornamental Bottle of Mulled Claret. Ornamental Oversized Pin Cushion. Ornamental Pike of Fate. Ornamental Storm-Stained Kopesh. Smithy's Scalding Point. Zatozia's Ornamental Bullwhip. Corrected an issue with wary protection that could cause it to increase damage for non-brawler fighter classes when they are wielding a two handed weapon. Updated several Destiny of Velious yellow adornments that had a white adornment icon. Corrected an issue that prevented Packets of Equipment from level boost baubles from being opened on Time-Locked servers. Overlander Leather Boots of Enduring Mettle - Item icon has been corrected. Dreadfell Cloth Bracer of Insight - Item icon has been corrected. Adherent's Cloth Bracer of Foresight - Item icon has been corrected. Advisor's Cloth Bracer of Foresight - Item icon has been corrected. Traploc's Polished Crossbow - Item name has been corrected. QUESTS Spirit's Message - Typo in quest journal fixed. Unpowered Daef Rune, Sigyl - Quest journal typo corrected. A Helping Hand - Typos in quest journal have been corrected. Further Research - Unresearched Notes are now removed from player's inventory when the quest is deleted. Further Research - Recipe: Gallie's Researched Notes are now removed from player's inventory when the quest is deleted. SERVICES Da Gamblin' Game Infoz will now only appear when the Gigglegibber Goblin Gamblin' Game Vendor is also present. TIME LOCKED SERVERS Achievements Servers with Age of Discovery active will increase the AA cap to 320. Tarinax Lengthened the duration between when the Avatars of Growth, Mischief, and Fear can respawn. Corrected an issue that allowed Hunter Scartyr to give some of their goods for free. TRADESKILLS Daily and weekly tradeskill missions will now have a chance to reward Forlorn or Vacrul mount patterns. Purifying star diopside can now sometimes return a tsavorite gem instead of forlorn ore. USER INTERFACE Fixed an issue with displaying large amounts of platinum in the character window. ZONES AND POPULATION Dracur Prime [Challenge] Deathwing drake base population mobs should now wait 20 seconds before casting Grimscale Wrath. This is to lower the damage and make the pulls survivable. Visions of Vetrovia Raids Lowered maximum health and combat mitigations for many raid bosses. Removed the chance that raid drops could drop bonus tradeskill recipes or mount patterns. Forlorn Gist: Emerging Deceit [Raid] Corrected an issue that caused some encounters to stop functioning at the fight length of 28 minutes. The Hand of Lithania has had the messaging for positional attacks adjusted to be less confusing. The Reanimated Horror should no longer keep his count for "Cursed Audience" from the cursed dolls when he resets his encounter. Lithania Dyrmelia's summoned cohorts should no longer remain after encounter is reset. Lithania Dyrmelia's summoned cohorts should now be accurately counted when they are defeated for the purposes of reducing the increments of "How Many of Which Witches". The recast of Chortling Chitter has been increased and reduced to 12 max targets. The Hand of Lithania should now properly use the ability "Twisted Squall" instead of "Taelosian Squall" targeting 4 players instead of 6. Maldura: Palace Foray [Event Heroic"> Dragoon Z'Koz should now enter combat regardless of how quickly his Primordial Malice militants are defeated. Continue reading...

EverQuest II Producer's Letter April 2022

Alpha, beta, beta . . . launch  , apr 05, 2022.

Can you believe the year's going by so quickly? I was thinking about an old Clockwork mount I owned that got stuck in reverse. That really took me back. But seriously, it's been a wild ride and I'd like to thank you for all of your time and dedication to making EverQuest II so much more than just a game. Without all of you and the love that you bring to our community we wouldn't be where we are today. Earlier this year, we experimentally released the 2022 roadmap. Thank you for your warm reception to the idea and for your interesting banter. If you missed that, the original article is at EQII Roadmap 2022 . Since then, we've delivered on it plus a plethora of smaller fixes and improvements. You can read more about each one in the links below.

2022 Roadmap Update:

• Kaladim Unlocking Age of Discovery
• Improvements to the Test Server
• Erollisi Day
• Server Merge - Rivervale into Antonia Bayle
• Lore and Legend Server
• Chronoportal Phenomenon Updates
• Brewday Festival
• Bristlebane Day
• Coming up soon (details below):
• Game Update 119 - Coffers and Coffins!
• Stat/Number Wrappers - In game combat numbers (damage and heals) are visually abbreviated and optionally commas (or periods depending on your locale) are added into damage logs.
• New Time Locked Expansion Server - Varsoon
• Tinkerfest Updates
• Scorched Sky Celebration Updates
• New Patches of Pride Items - New LGBTQIA+ pride familiars arrive!

Even more exciting, on May 24, 2022, we will be releasing our newest Time-Locked Expansion server: Varsoon. This will be a very similar experience to our previous TLE, Kaladim, except it will have the Free Trade ruleset. You can expect to see more information soon, including an F.A.Q. In the meantime, if you want to try out something different, we currently have the new Lore & Legend server, Kael Drakkel, that is a completionist's dream for quests, tradeskills, decorating, and of course story content.

Our pack of cuddly LGBTQIA+ patchwork critters is growing! Whether you are celebrating yourself, your friends, family, or guildmates, we've got three new pride familiars that you'll be able to add to your collections and parade along with you through Norrath. You'll be able to start adding them to your family June 3, 2022. These claimable familiars will have stats equivalent to the common familiar stats from the upcoming familiar season 9 that is coming later this year! That's not all, we've already begun work on EverQuest II's 19th expansion! The story outline has been made, environments have started their core layouts, and characters are starting to take shape. Where will our adventures take us, you ask? What foes will we face? What wishes will be fulfilled? What mysteries will be unburied from the sands of time? We can't wait to have more to show, to tell, and for you to experience! Eye'll be seeing you,

eq:Research  

Research is a tradeskill that allows non-priest casters to research and create spells through combining components. Pure casters may pick this tradeskill up at level 20.

Often, the combination of paper, pen, and two other components (such as a word or writ) will allow the spell researcher to create a spell.

The spell created does not have to be limited to the class of player researching the spell. For example, necromancers can just easily make magician spells, wizards may create druid spells, and magicians may create ranger spells. Obviously, only spells that actually exist can be created.

Popular recipes to get to 300

First of all, if your skill is at 0, be sure to train 1 (one) point in Research at your guildmaster. This will set your Research level to your current character level.

Trivial 262 : Researcher Ceramic Clay Drake Wing Webbing drops off drakes in Sunderock Springs. Small Block of Magic Clay is made with Pottery (21 trivial) using Large Block of Magic Clay created using a level 8 Enchanter spell. Inks, Quill and Thickener are sold at Spell Research vendors. In a spell research table, combine 1 Drake Wing Webbing , 1 Ink Additive of the Nameless , 1 Ink of Prexus , 1 Quill of the Arcane , 1 Small Block of Magic Clay and 1 Soothing Thickener to make 1 Researcher Ceramic Clay (stacks to 100).

Trivial 375 : Combat Spellbook Mystic Ash is bought (12.5 PP) from Alchemy vendors. Piece of Parchment is bought (1.5 GP) from Research vendors. Writing Ink is a random global drop. In a spell research table, combine 1 Mystic Ash , 5 Piece of Parchment and 1 Writing Ink to make 1 Combat Spellbook (doesn't stack).

Trivial 402 : Guidestone Ethenere Essence is a common forage and drop from the Call of the Forsaken expansion. Stone of Marking is bought (105 PP) from Jimmar Kadd (Wizard Teleports) and Wail Wallet (Druid Teleports) in Ethernere Tainted West Karana, as well as from Tak Whistler at the druid circle in North Karana. In a spell research table, combine 1 Ethernere Essence and 1 Stone of Marking to make 1 Guidestone (doesn't stack).
