Same as OSI's servers?

[RagolSlayer]

Is this server the same as OSI's servers(quests, monsters, maps, etc)? I'm asking this because my cousin got me a Ultima Online: Age of Shadows guide(Prima one) and I was wondering if the information in that guide would be helpful in this server. Thanks in advance.

Not everything is the same as on official shards, but the most is.
Monsters are the same (point of spawns sometimes are different), loot is not the same (but Rhapsody is translating the japanese guide to fix it), maps are the same, npc quests are the same (except the hag quest, that doesn't give gps rewards, but it will fixed soon).

Something has not been implemented yet, but as soon as possibile the shard will be fully aligned to OSI, at least for the AOS part (waiting for Tokuno )
