=== Changing race ===
=== Changing race ===
It is possible to change your race if you pay real life money (Station Cash) to SOE.  If you change your race the current quests in your journal will be cleared, as well as deity-specific spells, and your character's bind point will be set to Plane of Knowledge. Also, your new race must be one of the allowed races for  your class.
It is now possible to change your race if you pay real life money to SOE.  If you change your race the current quests in your journal will be cleared, as well as deity-specific spells, and your character's bind point will be set to Plane of Knowledge. Also, your new race must be one of the allowed races for  your class.
 
== Experience penalties ==
It appears that early in EverQuest there were penalties based on class and/or race.  These have been removed as stated in this quote:
{{Cquote|When class and race penalties were removed early in EverQuest's life, this was handled by increasing how much experience those classes and races received. For example, an iksar shadowknight receives 60% more XP than a barbarian rogue, because it takes the iksar shadowknight 60% more XP to level.||| [https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/why-not-just-show-the-xp-gained-per-mob.248898/#post-3659868 Prathun, EQ Developer]}}
 
== Behind the scenes ==
The following is believed to be true, however it has not been confirmed by Daybreak.
{{Cquote|<br />EQ uses bitmasks when referring to specific fields. Following are unique identifiers for class:
 
WAR&#61;1
 
CLE&#61;2
 
PAL&#61;4
 
RNG&#61;8
 
SHD&#61;16
 
DRU&#61;32
 
MNK&#61;64
 
BRD&#61;128
 
ROG&#61;256
 
SHM&#61;512
 
NEC&#61;1024
 
WIZ&#61;2048
 
MAG&#61;4096
 
ENC&#61;8192
 
BST&#61;16384
 
BER&#61;32768
 
As an example, in order to specify you wanted an item to be only used by SKs, you would have its 'usable-by' field set to 16. If you wanted that item to be usable by only SKs and Warriors then it would be 17. SHD/WAR/PAL would be 21.
 
0 would equal none, 65535 would equal ALL.
 
Edit to add: An explanation for those not familiar:
"Simply" put, you take the number given and compare it to where it fits within the given range, let's say 67.
67 isn't on there so we bounce down to 64 (Monk). That leaves 3 but there is no 3 so let's bounce down to the next option which is 2 (Cleric). Now we're left with a 1 which is (Warrior). That item would be tagged as usable by those classes. ||| [https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/64-bit-potential-original-new-race-class-ideas-for-future-xpacs.278837/page-2#post-4081192 Khat Nip, November 17, 2021]}}
