ClassicACE is an Asheron's Call Emulator based on ACEmulator. It adds rulesets which change the gameplay rules:
- Infiltration Ruleset: Replicates the gameplay of the Infiltration event which was released by Turbine in February 2005.
- CustomDM Ruleset: A variation of the Infiltration ruleset with a lot of tweaks and changes, a truly custom Asheron's Call experience.
- EoR Ruleset: End of Release - replicates the gameplay as it was at the time Asheron's Call was sunsetted. This is ACEmulator's default behavior and is included here for completeness and code compatibility.
A HUGE THANK YOU TO DEKARU, ADVAN, and the ENTIRE CLASSICACE TEAM!
** This server is forked from Dekaru's CustomDM. This is a modified version of that that has a mission of the following:**
- Approachable, Yet Challenging PvE Focused implementation
- Group-Focused content with significant interplay of skills during combat
- Aggressive TAR to offset macro'ing/metas

- Axe/Mace skill has a debuff of attributes component that is defended against by the Deception skill (yes, mobs will use this against you!)

- Deception taunt more effective
- Reduced Cooldown on Assess debuff
