DId they post how the name reservation works? I don't see it. Would they count a character with the same name on multiple servers and add the days or just take the highest playtime of that name? Doesn't really matter I suppose just curious. Anyway, I'm pumped to be a casual. Bought the bags...

Doesn't make much sense to me. 2 identical servers but one of them has a much better loot system. Oh well. Looking forward to Teek. Should be fun to play some EQ again.

Your CH rot should only have the number of clerics needed to fit the time spacing that you think is necessary. Every group should have a healer who's job is to keep the group alive. Ideally your best geared clerics are not in the rotation at all so they can duck heal/spot heal as needed. The...

How would you guys compare Oakwynd to Yelinak? I played on Yelinak for like the first 2 months or so and it was pretty casual. The "top guild" pretty much just did raids during scheduled times and the leadership hadn't played EQ in a long time, I think I remember them being a group that came...

Pick zones were smart, agents of change were smart. They didn't fundamentally change the game, and barring a few issues, they were easy to implement. FTE does fundamentally change the game, and clearly whoever came up with the idea, and those that agreed to go along with it did not think it...

It was probably Cohhcarnage. He's the only popular streamer who I know returns to EQ every now and then.

Q: What is EncounterLocking? What isthe goal for Encounter Locking? A:The Encounter Locking feature will allow the first person that engages an NPC the ability to prevent others from interfering with the fight. A primary goal with adding this feature is to mitigate issues we've seen regarding...

There's gonna be a lot of salt on these servers. Watching your frenzy get pulled right through your group and there's not a single thing you can do about it will definitely rub a few people the wrong way. It'll be a nice server for bards though, I'm half tempted to just play on it and charm kite...

I didn't realize OGC had a video of this, first time I've seen it. That was probably the most stressful night I've ever had in EQ. I had everything planned out for us and ended up getting ddos'd for like 2 hours, had to text a lot of my instructions lol. What a disaster, but we barely pulled it...

A bard could control an entire zone if it's big enough to kite in. A lot of exploits have already been mentioned in this thread, and many more will surely be thought of. Kill stealing and DPS racing are things that many players on these servers have complained about for a long time now. I think...

Was hoping for a non-truebox server. Unlucky.

I still have my phinigel potime data, looks like between Feb 3 - July 17 (165 days) we killed Quarm 114 times. 69 (nice) phase 4-5 kills. On May 29 we had to drop from 3 splitting phase 4-5 to 2 splitting, and from doing 5 Quarms to 4 Quarms each clear, which we maintained until the end of PoP...

There are bored EQ players on a 7-14 day cruise so the forums get rowdy

Maybe these ban waves will send them the message that people like boxing and they'll release relaxed true-box servers as the norm. That would be nice. Especially if they keep enforcing these MQ bans.

There are people who play these kinds of games that just have money to burn it seems. It's probably why gaming has gone in the direction it's gone. The people who realized 15 years ago they could sell an imaginary pair of boots to someone for $50 went into game development and decided to do the...
