About
List of all community servers that are actively being developed by the community. Please note at the present the majority of servers are being used to help with development and testing.
Server Types

Legit Servers are best efforts at cloning the official sony EQ2 worlds. They do not offer player admin commands to change your level, zone, summon items and generally focus on the player earning their rewards through quests and progression.
Custom-Legit
Custom-Legit servers are unique worlds using the EQ2 game engine which focus on the player progressing through a custom storyline to earn custom loot and experience original content.

Scars of Anarchy (Custom-Legit)
Admin: Tyr
Read more about the Scars of Anarchy project in the Server forum
We aim to provide content for groups and for raiders, soloing will only be viable in the early levels, just as it should be. Raids are a main focus of ours, and there will be many of them spanning from the 20s to max. Other then attempting to do all content from 1-80 (or 90 should the level cap increase before we go live) we will release in the same order as live, coming out with expansions as we get them done, and polished. This will allow for a fuller, richer experience over all, as we can focus on one thing at a time. Crafting will also be a viable, needed, path for players to take as certain quests and items can only be achieved with the assistance of a skilled tradesman, or tradeswoman.
Dragon Land (Custom Legit)
Admin: Jablambo Malambo (Jeff Orchard)
Read more about the Dragon Land project in the Server forum
The storyline behind Dragon Land will use the general lore of Norrath. The story itself and the events that take place in the world will be completely different than that of any of the EverQuest franchise games. As the name implies, the Dragon Land server will contain lots and lots of dragons. Final Tier progression quests will include at least 1 custom scripted Dragon fight. From tier 1, till tier 25, Dragon battle instances will become harder, and require more strategy. Strategies may be heard or read from somewhere in the world and could unlock the key to getting an upper hand in the fight. "For every quest, there is a reason."
Parallax (Custom-Legit)
Admin: Michael Bolland (Bolly)/Matthew Gibbins (Woody)
The Parallax Server is a community ran PVE/Roleplay EQ2Emulator server hosted in Canada and maintained by two developers from the United Kingdom. We chose Canada due to the large player base in Northern America. Our entire items, npc and quests are written from scratch and we consider this server a Total Conversion.
PVP Servers
Player Vs Player (PVP) servers are orientated around combat between guilds, players and also the environment.
