The last thread was from 2014 and can be found HERE. Apologies for being way overdue here, but thought it's high time this gets updated since there are two new servers out. if you have an active guild you would like added to one of the categories, please make a post below and add your info in the same format this thread uses. Make sure to copy the heading that you're adding yourself to. Note - this is not a list of all active guilds; just gives that very specifically meet the criteria listed below. SERVERS WITH GUILDS SPECIFICALLY TARGETING THE NEW/RETURNING PLAYERS Erollisi Marr ( Eye of Eternity - Avatar Elite - Fellowship of Judah - xSeekers of Lore ) Firiona Vie ( Insanity - Qu`ellar d`Veldrin roleplay guild - Knights of Infinity ) Xegony ( Lions of the Heart - Spirit Council ) Rathe ( The Eternal Darkness ) Ragefire ( The Saga of Lucimia - Pariah of Ragefire - Insurrection - Celestial Ascension - Norrathian Alliance - Destructive Tendencies - Lore Seekers of Ragefire - Pesky Blinders - Ebon Hand ) Lockjaw (too many guilds to name) SERVERS WITH PACIFIC TIME BASED GUILDS Cazic Thule ( Fyre/Sacred Fyre raid team - After Hours alliance - Ibadan Kun'Tirel ) Bertox ( Descendents - Enceladus ) Bristlebane ( Circle of Legends ) Erollisi Marr ( Ne Cede Malice raid team ) Rathe ( The Silent Minority has one raid team that starts at 5:30pm Pacific time ) Tunare (After Hours Open Raids) Lockjaw ( Stormwind Rising - Dead Halfling Society ) Firiona Vie ( Prosperitas ) SERVERS WITH EUROPEAN PLAYER BASE Antonius Bayle (most guilds will be Euro based/friendly) Rathe ( The Silent Minority has one raid team that raids on euro time ) Tunare ( Anthem ) Ragefire ( United Kingdom - Rosengard - Darkwind - Ronchons et Dragons/French speaking ) Lockjaw ( Wipes to Death - ) SERVERS WITH AUSTRALIAN/OCEANIC PLAYER BASE Bertox ( Wreckers ) Ragefire ( Denziens of Mischief ) Lockjaw ( Forsaken Order ) Cazic Thule ( Jinn ) - GMT+10 SERVERS WITH ASIAN PLAYER BASE Lockjaw ( Peace of Formosa EX. ) SERVERS WITH OPEN RAID FORCES/ALLIANCES- AKA I won't add raiding guilds who occasionally do open raids; open or alliance raiding must be your primary focus) Cazic Thule ( Freelance - Fyre/Sacred Fyre raid team ) Tunare ( Infinit - After Hours ) Erollisi Marr ( Ne Cede Malice raid team - ) Rathe ( Shining Alliance ) PVP SERVER Zek SERVERS WITH ROLEPLAY GUILDS Firiona Vie ( Ancestry of Norrath ) Erollisi Marr ( Sigils ) Ragefire ( House Resurgent ) SERVERS WITH PROGRESSION GUILDS Tunare ( Mal`Deth) Trakanon ( Fellowship of Ancestors ) Ragefire (guilds in general due to progression rules) Lockjaw (guilds in general due to progression rules) SPECIAL RULESET SERVERS Progression servers (Fippy and Vulak and the most recent set Ragefire and Lockjaw) - these start out at original EQ and then as requirements are met, each server can unlock the next expansion. Firiona Vie - This was traditionally called the roleplay server (though this may not be as popular as in the past). Almost all items are tradable (there is very little marked "no trade") and a few other benefits are also associated with the server. However, once you transfer on, you cannot transfer off as you can most other servers. Zek - this is the PVP (player vs player) server and there are free transfers to Zek. Test - this is a non traditional server. Players on test are treated as if they are all access (even if they have no paying account). Exception - you now have to purchase the most recent expansion; it's not given to you free anymore.
