Kunark Launch Scavenger Hunt

Kunark Launch - The First Boat Leaves Oasis for Timorous Deep

See this thread for Rogean's behind the scenes. The launch of Kunark on Project 1999 was preceded by an event the night of Friday, March 25, 2011. It involved a scavenger hunt to collect the heads of various races for messengers of the Iksar nation, then a short battle as each of the messengers returned to their boats. There were serverwide messages throughout the evening keeping everyone up to date on the progression of the live quest, as well as when Kunark does open. The boats and port spells to Kunark were then unlocked. The opening of the zones will coincide with the level cap being raised to 60 as well as the ability to create Iksars. This will all happen without a server patch.

Serverwide Rares

Beginning with the unlock of Kunark and lasting only throughout that night, every mob on the server had a very rare chance to drop high value classic items, such as the Guise of Deceiver and others. To promote fairness for all levels, and to prevent high level characters from slaughtering low level zones, these items will only have a chance to drop if experience was awarded for the kill (aka, the "Trivial" loot system). The following items dropped:

• Guise of the Deceiver
• Box of Abu-Kar
• Manastone
• Rubicite Breastplate
• Glimmer Ring (1 charge of instant right-click Gate)
• Staff of Forbidden Rites
• Scimitar of the Mistwalker
• Thex Dagger

Achievements

As players obtain certain server first goals, they will be broadcasted to the server. Currently the system will only congratulate players for level achievements, but other type achievements such as mob kills or quests may be added. For example, a broadcast will automatically congratulate the first players to levels 51 to 60. It will also congratulate each individual class to level 60, and it will also announce various Iksar levels, including pre-50, and also the first of each Iksar class to 60.

Congratulations to the lucky and welcome to Kunark!
