Mostly correct, but... Both HoV and EoV are warriors and are mostly similar in terms of both having DT and both able to proc a 500 hp lifetap on melee attacks and ripostes, but they do have 3 distinct differences. HoV has an unresistable rain spell, HoV has much higher dps output from melee...

Ahh ok Pettie makes sense too, he got it from Lab. Pettie did it as well but not to the extreme lengths that Lab would go through. People can probably mostly blame pettie for why I even originally continued to play EQ. I started on the tlp's after not playing EQ since 2001, originally as just a...

You're referring to Laberintica. Great rogue/player. He's been doing that every server since before phinny, and his proof of how prioritizing full resist gear over dps gear in the early expansions will double your DPS is a large part in why Kubat and myself have been big pushers of that motto...

I mean, I know you are aren't the brightest, most clever, most socially adapted person out there....but even the most socially inept people can come up with a new joke that's taken out of context from a story that I'm not even the original person to tell it. Even socially inept people don't...

Funny enough and obviously this is an exception, but we used to have someone, he was either a wizard or necro cant remember, who intentionally wore shit gear permanently, even shit gear from prior expansions that woulda been considered shit even in the era they were from, just to see how high up...

Daaaaaam bro, how many raids did you have to search through to find some stuff that was 7 clerics and less and then actually think this was in any way proof of what I said being completely false and untrue? Forced me to go back through discord conversations as I know i brought up several times...

either way, was a fun back and forth with ya @yerm about something that is actually EQ related outside of the normal shitposting that goes on here. reminds me of the 3-4 hour back and forth debates in discord/bumble over EQ raiding theories that I used to take part in or listen to. Have to head...

I think it can be useful in certain context. I've never been big with harping on gear in raids I've ran across servers. In TEB gear was never a requirement. There were some members who would complain about undergeared people joining, but I would just try to explain the bigger picture to them and...

Yeah I can remember some of OGC's first AoW kills and the CH rots were super big. Now days I think most guilds can do it with 5 in the rot and any others outside splashing. For the last half of velious on Aradune, there were a lot of early am hour AoW kills that we only used me playing 5 clerics...

Yeah, sure, ok. boxes are the culprit!....ok lol. You'd lose your money.

I mean you can call me bad if you want, and you can also stick to your systems of how you do things all you want if you believe them to be better. I'll continue using my systems, the systems that have been PROVEN to facilitate splits that consistently finish raids faster than any other guilds...

Ok if the 10 clerics in the rot are also splashing, what is the point of the CH rot then to begin with? The people casting CH's and actually letting them land would be letting them land at a health that is inefficient. You can use the old tired argument of "sounds like the players are just bad"...

CH rots can be used prior to velious and should be used to promote higher levels of efficiency and speed. For example Plane of Sky in Classic and Veeshans Peak in Kunark. If you were to race two raids of 72 doing a full clear in those zones, everything else being the same except one not using a...

Astral was one of the raid leaders in GIG to my understanding, yes. Krim was also a raid leader in GIG yes, I was only in a couple raids of his as he was mostly a DZ raid leader to my understanding, and I really only ever did OW raids. Yes Astral is a very knowledgeable raid leader in general...

Exactly. I've seen too many instances in which a guild focuses so much on one aspect of raiding or judging things by one generalized metric that they fail to take a wholistic approach and look at the dozen + other factors that are causing their raids to slow down or fail entirely. I harped on...
