Zeb Server - EQ Emulator

The server name has officially changed to Zeb. I also expect more players to join the server over the next few weeks so please welcome them and try to be as helpful as you can. I also posted over on the official EQEmulator.net forums about our server to get it more attention so please check out that post. Patching has been continuous so be sure to look at the Patch Notes forum and keep the feedback coming.

Remember that this weekend I will be hosting multiple events and giveaways so be sure to invite your friends and log on for some fun each evening. Should be a great weekend and hope to see everyone onlin!

Problems and suggestions with the new layout should be everyones focus right now. Please keep the feedback coming through this week so we can iron out all the issues. Even if an issue has already been brought up it helps if you give your opinions on the matter so I can develop something that works for the whole community.

The first version of the Zeb Custom Map pack is now up on the downloads page. The map pack currently contains all zones from 1-70 except for Kael and Nurga. The maps will point out zone locations, quest NPCs, boss locations, points of interest, and more. I highly recommend the download. I will be adding more zones to it in the future so keep your eyes open for updates.

This is a big update!

The Nexus has been replaced by Cabilis East and West. Next time you log in you will start in Cabilis East so please take a second to bind there. New players will start in Cabilis East which features a 1-5 leveling area and a pretty cool event you can do at level 3.

The purpose of this update is to take Zeb to the next level. No longer will you port from place to place in an instanced type format. Every zone has a place, lore, and a distance.

Many zones are connected directly to Cabilis (especially the lower level zones) but many have also been moved out into the world. There are three open zones that connect to Cabilis: Warsliks Wood, Field of Bone, and Western Wastes (in order of difficulty). These open zones are also host to new quests and future high end open raids (no keys required). The open zones aren’t focused on experience or huge loot tables but there are some cool things to discover and some rare things you might happen upon. Here is the current layout:

Warsliks Wood:
-Tower of Frozen Shadow
-Fungus Grove
-Nurga
Field of Bone:
-Kurns Tower
-City of Mist
Western Wastes
-Kael
-Dragon Necropolis
-Temple of Veeshan
-Frosted Halls

The efforts of all of that economy balance are now paying off. To help you get to these new places are a variety of merchants selling different speeds of mounts. There are also new merchants for potions, food, ammo, weapons, twink armor, supplies, consumables, summoned items, trophies, bags, fishing, ale and more!

The new zones combined offer:
-Over 20 new quests
-Hundreds of new items
-Great new features
-Screen melting awesomeness!

In the near future I will be offering a full Zeb Custom Map Pack. I am almost finished with a full set of maps for all the zones on the server. This will help you find your way around these new areas, locate quests for you, and show you where the cool named are.

Please provide as much feedback as possible for me on the forums. This is a big change and I’m sure there is a bug or two. Once the bugs have been ironed out I will start to advertise the server to new and old players and really make the playerbase grow.

Thanks for playing on Zeb and I hope that your experience with the server is as positive as mine.

The server will be up and down tonight as I put in some new content (details coming tonight). Unsure how long it will take but this post will be removed / replaced with more information when it’s done.

I’m excited to share what I’ve been working on with everyone!
