information in the first chart below. For Luclin maps, see EQ Atlas first, then see EQ Maps. If you are looking
for basic information on how to travel to and from Luclin--plus initial Luclin
spell, vendor and faction-quest information--see Luclin Passage in the second
chart. (The Luclin computer requirements are available just below that and the Luclin armor quests
just above it.)

additional class-specific information, see CastersRealm's FAQs for each class and class
strategies.
For additional class boards, see
Everlore's class
