Torrent for v11 EPPC

Greetings everyone, I am new here and would like to explore your shard but am having some trouble with the PrePatched Client download.
It keeps disconnecting and I have to restart the download. A torrent link would be most helpful in avoiding these disconnects but the download page says it (the torrent link) is still under construction.

Could anyone help a brother out?

Another attempt today, disconnected at 257mg and have to start over again.

I'll keep checking back to see if anyone has a torrent, but I'm going to stop trying the FTP.

Y'all have a great day.

I am going to try a trick to get it to finish the download. Will report back in a bit.

Edit*
Trick didn't work, attempted to download, made 172mg before it failed.

Trying again but with little optimism.

And another failed attempt today, 257 meg before it failed. Very disheartening.

My question would be what browser are you using? I attempted to download the file and got the whole thing without any issue. This tells me that there is an issue on your end prohibiting the download.

Another trick you can use is just FTP into the UOEX site (FTP patch.uoex.net anonymously) to download the newest.
Just grab the uoml_excelsior_expatch11.exe file ( dated for 9/2/16).

The server they host things on is more than fast enough.
So I don't think a torrent is warranted.

(I was able to get the whole file in Less than 2 minutes)

Browser is Chrome, also using a Download manager, neither of these will allow the download to resume.

Issue is definitely on my ISP's end, with massive lag spikes and complete service drops that make playing the game over their service impossible. I am having better luck with PLAYING tethered to my cell, but am not going to be able to make an 800 meg download on it.

My DSL service will download fine over a torrent, and am playing now on another server where I COULD download the client with a torrent.

But there is not here, and your "enhanced" client is out of reach for me.

Did you follow the FTP instructions? you can use filezlla or other ftp manager to download the file. The nice thing is you can resume where you left off using this method without any issues again just reference the post I did prior for the correct filename and you should be good to go.

What FTP instructions? I followed the instructions on the download page to get the full client.
Quick start (simple way)

Download the pre-patched client (776 MB).

Excelsior Prepatched Client - version 11 (via FTP)
Torrent/MagnetLink: under construction --- Excelsior Prepatched Client - version 4c

When finished downloading, run the installer.
I appreciate your tips, but the obvious solution is the torrent link.

After a good deal of assistance from Blathzar, I STILL need a torrent to the fully patched client.

I want to thank him for his effort, but the file he shared will not open and I am on hold until the staff completes construction on the torrent.

Y'all have a great day.

I just updated the link on the startup page, let me know if it works.

Download complete, and again, a single file.
I was under the impression it would be a fully functioning client, pre patched and ready to play the game.

Is this a patching tool and I need to find a 5.0.9 client to run the game?

Doubleclick to install. It's a winrar self-extracting archive.
