Feldon From the EQ2 Forums:
The server consolidation for the Guk, Unrest, and Everfrost servers merging into Halls of Fate will start at Wednesday, October 28, 2015 at 7AM PDT* and this downtime will take 24 hours. These servers are scheduled to be unavailable until Thursday, October 29, 2015 at 7AM PDT.*
A couple of important notes for players:
- Players should pick up soulbound items BEFORE the merge. This will prevent losing ownership of placed items due to renaming.
- When the consolidation is complete on Thursday, players should delete their “logincache-us” or else LaunchPad character logins will fail.
Note that the Terrors of Thalumbra beta server will also be available to players during this downtime. To learn more about theTerrors of Thalumbra beta, see the link here.
We appreciate all of our players’ patience and support during server consolidations. If you haven’t been keeping up on server merges, you can find out more in our most recent FAQ here.
A couple important questions from players:
- What the hell is “Soulbound” is this World of Warcraft?
- 36 hours is insufficient notice to collect hundreds of NO TRADE items placed in other people’s houses and guild halls.

From Roshen in that thread…
Feldon: soulbound is EQ1 terminology too, isn’t it?
We really needed more notice for picking up stuff. /sigh
RIP Everfrost *plays a tiny violin*
Yep, 11 years, what a blast. See you all on the other side. Hopefully with ALL of our stuff lol. Just wish it didn’t have to be on a server named Halls of Fate lol. Oh well, supposed we’ll all get used to it quickly and its just a name afterall. But really lame name out of all the great KoS themed names that were suggested.
Well…… Guess I lose all my No Trade stuff. I did not see this until this morning, guess that’s what happens when you have a life and don’t go to the boards or login every night. See you on the the other side Unrest. Whats funny is I started on Guk, moved to Unrest when the last free transfers happened, now all my Characters are back together again.
The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
Farewell noble EverFrost, I knew ye well
new name don’t sound so bad…
I would have named it Marsellus Wallace 😈
