<a href='http://www.equiprojet.com' target='_blank'>Equilibrium Project</a>

A different server indeed.
Some people will not like playing this kind of server, because this server is intended to stay alive long...
We've been up for more than one year now... and will stay for long...

This server is not intended for people who care only PvP when playing HB. PvP is still allowed and possible.
On the other hand, people not enjoying PvP will like this server, even if they occasionally want to perform some PvP...

Server's name, Equilibrium Project, has been chosen to indicate the spirit of the server. HB is not a balanced game, we want to change this !

Most players there a French speaking as our community is mostlly French, Swiss, Belgian, Canadian; but many can speak some english as well. Item names and game messages are English.

Server facts
Max level is 153.
Max stats is 250. (new spells and weapons)
Client is 3.51. (will change soon)
Map layout is unique. (post Ares/Elvine war)
Exp is (too) high. (around 8x /10x from old HBint xp)
Drop rate is improved. (3x)
Drop lists are improved.
We use highly improved HBx2.24b sources.
We have many unique features.
Apocalypse works.

Now, a list of some special features
* New class: Priest
Based on Strength and charisma, he has special limitations (no edged weapons), but special spells, powerfull healing spells, and unique spells.

* New Class: Paladin
A Paladin is to the Priest what the BMge is to Magician.

* New class:Monk
(Basd on Vitality) This martial artist need no weapon! Masters can even stun an Ogre. They're nearlly unkillable, but it's hard to PvP with them...

* New class:Druid
(Base on Charisma and Dexterity) Very special character, close to Battle wizzard, can be deadlly but weak.

* Improved ClassFencer
You can now play a Fencer at max leve and not be ridiculous. Event make some people envious...

* Improved ClassLS Mage
With 250 mag, and fixed spells, such a mage is really interesting, even if not good for PvP...

* New Sub-ClassesBarbarian, Knight
Accepting some weapons/armor restrictions, you gain some advantages with these new specialities.

* New ItemsWeapons
Of course we have weapons to suit warriors up to 250 Str that deals tremendous damage, but we have very special unique weapons. Just an exemple, our stormBringer behalve exactelly as Elric's blade. So powerfull at PvP, but sometime lethal for friends...

* New Items Armors & Misc.
We have new armors, with unexpected effects for a wide range of characters.
New shields stronger than Tower.
New conditions for wearing some items. (ie: Cape of the Unicorm, gives high PA when attaqued form behind, only for people with 0 EK....)
Of course we have the famous SoulEggs, afterall I'm the inventor !

* New Skills DualWielding, Taming.
You always dreamed it, we did it, now you can fight with one weapon in each hand...
Taming is used to change for a while creatures allegiance. Each character class can tame different creatures (Druids animals/Plants, Priests Undead....)

* Improved Skills Alchemy, Manuf.
Hard potions, and good completions advance the skill faster.
New potions (ie: Summon Demon)
And the possibility to enchant manuf wepons/armors using special potions.

* Improved magic New spells, fixed spells, items.
The magy system has been greatlly improved, even if base on old official settings.
- We have some very special mage items. (ie: BloodWand MS40 that drinks some red bar when casting)
- Some spell issues have been fixed (Icing effects, Spells not "Flying" target, SPdown effects,....)
- Some really new spells for Priest AND mages (ManaDrain, Manttle spells that reflect damage, Peace Spell to disarm opponent, Warrior Spirit to change your Mage into Warrior....)
- Off course a special effort was made to keep all this well balanced !

* New in-game settings Either permanent, or for GMs
We added a lot of commands for GMs, to allow them to perform really unique events.
ie: A PvP event can be organized on a safe map. PvP can be adjusted, (Safe/non Safe, Penalty/Rewards, ...)

* What after level 150? Gizon points
With our high XP rate lvl 150 is a matter of some weeks or mounths. When reaching lvl 150, additional XP is translated in "Gizon points".
You can use those points to "buy" special things.:
- 1 Gizon, in game: exchange 3 stats points.
- x Gizonx, in game: improve stats for an item.
- 12 Gizons: ask admin to change completlly your stats.
- 4, 8 ,12 Gizons, in game: lvl 151, 152, 153.
- 3 Gizons, ask admin: gives the right to play a character of Abaddon's side. (Executor)
Executors have special advantages and limitations, they can lvl up to lvl 170, and can PvP even on most Safe maps.

* Beside XP PvP
-The PvP system have been designed anew.
You will gain no EK point, killing a noob (100-)
You will gain just one point killing a lower lvl char.
Normal rate is 2 points per Kill.
You will gain more points killing a higher lever character.
- With lvl 150/stats 250 limits, no one can be at same time a PowerKiller and unkillable.
- New PvP attack/defend formulas, so no dual will last for hours (exept maybe between Monks....)
- Crusades have been improved ( TP player protection, impossible to hide behind structures...)

* Beside XP Contribution
- The quest list has been improved, so don't hope to wait lvl 120+ and mass contrib at D4....
- Contribution is needed for Hero set, and improved Egg hatching.

* A better playing experienceImproved client, new player commands
Some examples..
-Did you see the "F1 shortcut" hack ? We alreaddy have 5 shortcuts F1, F2, F3, F11, F12.
- Dblclick a ZemStone...
- Included multi-Client
- Removed badword system, too bad when speaking an other language
- New Maps, new effects.
- And more things to come sson ....

* A community Simple but strict server rules
- Account will be created by hoster (just see the procedure on www.equiprojet.com), so we may know who is who (creation eMail address is required for changes/hackedAccound request to hoster)
- People using badwords too much may be banned.
- People are suposed to respect others and their game experience.
- If you hack, be sure not to be in the Logs...

As, a conclusion, (if you read all this ...) We have a different server. It's not intended for everybody, but many may enjoy there!

We just played our first (non beta test) HELDENIAN, with all the summons it's quitte different from Crusade or ordinary PvP.
Real fun.
Few minor bugs remaining, fixed...

And just fixed some crusade issues as well
(ie: You can see Manastones positions at crusade start even if not a commander)

my used to have too, but i dont play anymore.

Another cool thing is Ctrl+1 = blizz window, Ctrl+2 amp window, its so comfortable to play mage, while others sweat to death trying to get right spell and etc.

You can bind those hotkeys almost to anything you want B) for example arrow keys.

Shift as Insert

, mouse middle button as F4 ^^

maybe you should get an account maker first? :ph34r:

I even disactivated the account creation via old client. . .

We only want people that accept server rules.
1 - Courtesy:
- No racism, no insults, never deliver a blow to players on this server.
- No flood on chats.
- No offence...

The best way to know who is who (to a certain extend) is to create account manually. I we catch someone hacking insulting too much....., and ban his account; he will have to wait to ask for another one, and just create a new one instantlly.

For an account, send desired name, pwd to compte@equiprojet.com

Maybe . . . Maybe not !

Our server is not intended to be a short-lived server. It has been alive for 15 mounths now. and the spirit is not the same than mosts servers around.

Players that really want to play a different HB, will send an eMail and wait the account.
Players that just dl. install and create acc. instantlly will play 30min; be lost because so many things are different and would leave EP for ever.
