Be among the first to explore this new content for the greater good!</p> <p>The new Qeynos is rife with intrigue and conflict. Queen Antonia Bayle and the Circle of Ten have evolved new strategies to oversee the welfare of the goodly folk of Norrath, but as with any change, there are challenges to overcome. Power can tip the scales as easily in this shining bastion of hope as it can anywhere in Norrath.</p> <p>New racial quests, available at all levels, offer history and an introduction to your origins as well as a sense of your place within your community, setting the stage for the new Qeynosian power-struggles. New class and storyline quests starting at level 20 place you right in the middle of the city's strife, together with your brethren and all the way to the high court.</p> <p>Storyline Quests</p> <p>After reaching levels 20, 40, 60, and 80, players should seek out Murrar Shar in the Qeynos Capitol District, who will direct them to those needing assistance within the city.</p> <p>Class Quests</p> <p>Once you reach level 20, find Standar Yorden at the Claymore Plaza in the Qeynos Capitol District. He will get you started on your class specific quests.</p> <p>Racial Quests</p> <ul><li>Qeynos Capitol District:<ul><li>Erudite mentor Maareona Ludimintium</li> <li>Freeblood mentor Talas Farin</li> <li>Gnome mentor Trina Tinkerton</li> <li>Human mentor Patricia Benson </li> <li>Kerra mentor Lakosha Maera</li> <li>Ratonga mentor Tilla</li></ul></li> <li>Qeynos Province District:<ul><li>Barbarian mentor Gild Stonebreaker</li> <li>Dwarf mentor Mav Boilfist</li> <li>Fae mentor Guard Laelyth</li> <li>Froglok mentor Rupert Valorbound</li> <li>Halfling mentor Bungle Proudfoot</li> <li>High Elf mentor Eireneith Alannia</li> <li>Wood Elf mentor Trelly Greenthorn</li></ul></li> </ul> <p>We can’t wait to see you on Test!</p>

<p>Eh, you shoulda waited a day to post this. Test/Copy is barely playable atm, keeps throwing us out due to the hardware problems.</p><p>Folks, I'd recommend giving them 24 hours to fix it up, it's been posted in a few places they are working on it. I'm sure it'll be good again soon. But if you log over right now, you'll be tearing your hair out in frustration and unable to get much testing done at all.</p><p>I'll be heading back tomorrow when the server hamsters are hopefully stabilised again. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>That's not at ALL what the walls look like to me. They look very dark, almost black, and not as detailed until you get close and you can kinda see texture.</p><p>Please see: <a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=519540�" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...40�</a> <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>I am considering making Test my home. Are there any perks for playing there, as there is on the EQLive test server, such as enhanced xp gain? Won't be a breaking point if not, was just curious.</p>

[Eshaac]

<p>Man, I can not even get that far.. Client keeps crashing as soon as it starts..  "Client Application has stopped working"  Windows will close the application and notify.. blah, blah blah ye all know the rest..   That is what keeps happening to me over and over again..</p><p><img src="http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o91/Heppyeq2/EQ2clienterror.jpg" width="371" height="194" /></p><p>Eshaac</p>

<p>No log in problems </p><p>AND  -  Sargeant Quakers is STILL there!  And it's still the Qeynos I love    Thank you for that!</p>

<p>waited for my characters to copy, launched, crashed when loading to game.</p>

[Grycks]

<p>Yes, on the Test server there is a permanent (as much as anything is permanent) 50% bonus to experience gain from what I recall. It is also never (or as close to never) wiped. Test Copy server is frequently wiped and the "rules" there are constantly (that is to say, nearly constantly) in flux.</p>

[Whilhelmina]

<p>Test is never wiped and has no buffers. Test_copy is wiped and gets buffers.Both servers have a permanent 50% adv xp/TS xp/AA xp bonus.</p><p>But as Soresja said, be carefull, it's crashing a lot those past days.</p>
