Getting Started

Installation and Setup

• Download and install a copy of EQ Rain of Fear 2 Client.
  • Remember where you install your client to. You will need this path again to complete installation

  • Download the Chainbreaker Server Files from the chainbreaker-files channel, which you can select from the left-hand column in Discord

  • When prompted, select to ‘Replace All files’ in the location with the ones you are extracting.

Signing In

• Read and agree to play by the server's rules

1. Don't piss off the developers.
2. Seriously, DO NOT PISS OFF THE DEVELOPERS.
3. Any form of cheating including MacroQuest, ShowEQ, ect WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. If you are using it, agents have already been dispatched to your location. HAVING IT RUNNING AT ALL WILL BE PUNISHED!
 3.1. Multiboxing of any nature will also not be tolerated under ANY circumstance.
 3.2. AFK Killing or Healing will be punished as the GM sees fit (Expect it to hurt).
4. Any software hooking, reading memory from, or otherwise interacting with the game client is also NOT TOLERATED. Cheat Engine, Debuggers, EQBC, ect WILL GET YOU BANNED!
5. We have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to extreme hate speech. This includes racist, homophobic, xenophobic and other comments. This is subject to administrative discretion. Don't do it. You WILL NOT be warned!
6. Especially DO NOT PISS OFF AILIA!
7. Ping the developers at your own risk. If its important enough that its necessary, so be it.
 7.1 This includes DMs, we have day jobs so unless the server is on fire or someone found a game breaking exploit it probably doesn't need to be a DM
 7.2 Doing so at 2 AM is not recommended, or really any time past 11 PM PST. See Rule 6.
8. Report exploits via Private Message ONLY
9. Intentional Griefing and/or Training is not allowed.
10. Being an ass in ooc will result in your ooc privileges revoked!
11. All server-wide buy/sell/trade is only allowed in /auc
12. See Rule 6.
13. Guild bashing by any party will not be tolerated. Any guild found doing it directed at another guild will be punished.
14. Repeated abuse by a guild will result in disbanding and its leader being banned without appeal
15. Lieing to and/or deceiving developers is not allowed. (The fact we even had to add this one tells me something)
16. Dingus is a Dingus. Despite not being a developer rules 1, 7 and 7.1 still apply.
17. Ban evasion is a bannable offense.
18. If it breaks the Discord TOS, it breaks the rules.
69. Nice.
