Lol I did expect that the new server was going to have a lot of attention. But damn, it doesn't even let me log into the game with my newly created character.
P.S. Once you're in, please, just get off the boat quickly! 🙏🏼 Talk to the guy next to the captain and ask him to dump you on the Island of Refuge.
Has anyone being able to login yet? I have been able to create my character but still have not been able to login. How long does it usually take to normalize logins in previous launches?
I've played every MMO under the sun since 1998 and currently don't have much on my list of must plays so figured I'd give this a shot.
How different is the leveling journey and endgame to a EQ1 vet? Is it more in line with WoW where it's all instanced dungeons you run through or is there lots of open world zone camps? Once max is it all LFG for instanced dungeons and raids?
I will be playing as part of healer/tank duo. We decided on this so we can easily form groups when we want to do dungeon content. However we will also want to just duo a decent amount of time. Does anyone have a suggested leveling path for a primary duo with some group content along the way as wanted. We plan to start evil side.
I originally was going to play a Templar, I like the idea of being tanky and being focused on healing. The more I read (and talk to AI), the more it sounds like it's a bad choice.
I've read that Furies do 4 times the dps when soloing, and that mystics can easily double it. I've read that Templars are like watching paint dry for most fights, and that worries me since I'll be playing solo a fair amount, since I'm retired and my friends work.
I was debating switching to a mystic so my experience isn't so "slow", but I figured I'd ask the community here what they think, since you guys have more experience and I trust the opinion of you guys over AI.
Thanks!
A horde of users are stuck at character creation logging in because of overloaded servers.
This Is likely being caused by everyone being in a single person instance, doing their boat quests.
The more people who talk to the boat pilot and skip to go straight to island, the more our congestion may clear up
Is the 3 month thing just a way to keep people going? Will the population just die if its set to 6 months or a year? I would love a slower paced server where more people get to endgame... I think the 3 month cycle pushes people away more than it keeps them involved.
I am completely open to the idea that I am just plain wrong...
Hi, I'm trying to create a character but I don't see the Wuoshi server. It should have been active for the last 3 hours, right?
Or am I doing something wrong? My launcher is set to US English - Full, even though I'm a European player.
Is the server down? Or what am I doing wrong?
I see Berserker and Bruiser in the tanks section, but are they actually tanks in the game?
I was planning to play Bruiser solo and Berserker with my girlfriend. Will they always ask me to be the tank, or can I play DPS? Will they replace me with better DPS? Like what?
Thanks for your answers.

What is EverQuest Legends?
Experience Classic EverQuest – EverQuest Legends features all of the magic and nostalgia of classic EverQuest, including the original art style, graphics, zones, spell effects, loot, and music. Enjoy the game as it hasn’t been seen, heard, or experienced in over 20 years.
Modern Game Features – EQL features tons of modern game features, including a streamlined user interface, upgraded spell and ability management, and countless other quality of life enhancements.
Forge Your Legend – EQL allows players to create unique characters by selecting up to three classes at a time, with all of the benefits, stats, spells, and abilities that come with each class. You can also upgrade your gear (up to +10) and swap and combine different focus, click, and proc effects on your gear. With 15 available races and 560 possible class combinations, the possibilities for forging the ultimate character are virtually endless.
Adventure… Your Way – With the additional power provided to player characters and the many benefits of a modernized gaming experience, EQL makes it possible for players to progress through the game at their own pace and to forge their own adventures, whether alone or with others. While small groups (up to 4 players) and raids (up to 8 players) are possible, even a solo player can build a character strong enough to take on the toughest challenges and acquire the most epic gear in the game.
Would mammoths still be manageable as farm animals, even when they're at their adult sizes?
What if those mammoth calves will only end up becoming dwarves the size of cows, making them easier to manage?
So I usually main healer or scout dps but this time I want to main a tank. I've always played SK and Zerker but im curious about the brawler tanks. Are they decent choices for tanking? I played live from launch until ToT and never really touched them.
I have never played EQ2 before but a few of my coworkers have and they have convinced me to sub and try the TLE. Usually in MMOs I play dps but they told me healing in EQ is chill and recommended defiler. Just curious if you guys have other suggestions.
So with EQ2s character creator it is possible to save a characters looks. Does anyone know if it's possible to pre-create some characters on Varsoon that I can tomorow load in the character creation on Wuoshi?
Also does anyone know if this time there will be those packages in with the big backpack and the mount like in the TLEs before? It didn't see this mentioned in the FAQs so far
What’s everyone going to start off playing as?? I’m debating starting as tank or support/heals
Hey all, hoping some more experienced players can help us not so experienced folks with some leveling path advice for a new toon. What are the most painless leveling paths for both good and evil, specifically Qeynos and Freeport?
What is a Time Locked Expansion Server?
The Quick hits:
Wuoshi Resources: (Help me expand this!)
So I decided to give EQ2 a try. Going Live Server, though i do know there is a new TLE coming out soon. Picked Maj'Dul and decided to go a Support. Out of the four classes which do you feel is least played as a main class?
Hello,
Do you think it will be possible to play from EU with starlink connection without too much latency ?
I've played Origins and Varsoon as a Shaman, played on Live abit and just doing some class testing, I don't really think I like what Shaman has morphed into so I'm trying other classes. I've been doing Conjuror and it's been pretty alright, but I'm considering scout classes since I've been dpsing more and usually have been going melee. So other considerations are Assassin/Brig/Swash but I'm also curious about Troub/Dirge, but I don't really know who exactly plays like a melee and honestly Bard classes in some games have THE most annoying sound effects lol so that's a concern. I just don't know what most of these classes will look like on Wuoshi, and as far as I can tell there's no traditional 2-hand dps class. Any generic rotational information will help too.
Edit: I'll tack Wizard on too
