    Everquest Legends

    The stances and invocations make this game. 100%. It actually makes you play the game rather than building up your procs and waiting/praying like most of THJ was. Both these games are MOSTLY pulling from AA's that exist in later expansions and importing them in early. The difference is THJ...

    Solo'd sky for the first time last night. That place is an absolute joke compared to OW Sky or Multiplayer sky. Absolutely fucking cakewalk. The 3 man 250k charming Cazic Thule my group and I did earlier that night, however, a bit more difficult.

    Man they goof'd with the raid hp scaling. Mobs with 80k hp last week with 5 people on D4 have like 230k with 3 people on D4. Making for some long fucking battles.

    I'd play a fresh run of that Pal/Shm/Mnk to test how mighty it is. Alt's on this usually blast everything with broken weapons immediately so it's a poor judge of how good a "starter" would be. Especially when you factor in the AA's you already have. My alts, even from 20 to 11 on another...

    Update: It's a mess. DW is better than 2hander for Water pet so far, but 2hander may be better for air pet but my air pet is un-focused and level 0. Basically: Giga proc > weapon ratio My 49 focus water pet with just Burnout 3 is 100 dps with my best DW setup with rpocs, and is 81 with no...

    You need to make sure you're using procs YOUR classes can use and in the correct SLOTS. So a lot of procs like Earthshaker are primary only. Testing pets on test dummies right now. Seems dmg/delay matters to an almost insignificant degree and procs are the most important.

    That Pal/Mnk/Shm stuff is giving me "play righteous fire, bro!" vibes from PoE. It works, I'm sure it's good, but it's going to be limited in certain conditions, it doesn't especially do anything unique, and most of all don't play it if you purely want to have fun and want to play literally...

    Weapon procs are all mostly broken right now. They know about it. Even some procs that WERE working break if you take them out. Probably something to do with storing them in the augmentation storage.

    Rangers in fact get Triple Attack at level 46. For those who don't know, there's a MOSTLY accurate wiki, but it was mostly scraped from P99 Wiki and editted with EQL only features and such. There is a power slider on items so you can see what they look like at +0 vs +6 or +10 for instance...

    I believe the intend to revamp most/if not all zones. I think Permafrost is next on the list which should be cool since there is a billion rares in there. I'm guessing part of their revamp reasoning is some form of high level dungeon versions of traditional dungeons (a la Mythic/Heroic) for...

    Everquest Legends

    I think defense is a pretty easy place to get for a lot of builds with stuff like defensive/mage hunter/evasive stance. Getting damage isn't as bad, but for real non-stop damage I think a lot of classes need DEEP investment into things like crit/crit damage AA's which just can't be acquired...

    It's a 15 second cooldown that is affected by haste so mine ends up being 9ish seconds. You can also double/triple proc it on double or triple attack.

    There's absolutely nothing I need to buy from the store and can unlock the important stuff in game. I don't understand the freakout. Real EQ TLP Vets went "oh, that's cheaper than here!" That said they need to give free funny money per month with sub, probably. Just to appease the people...

    If you're leveling, find something with -1 level to +3 level mobs and set that shit to diff 0 and plow. Even at 44+ just blasting liveside guk or HAMLord isn't AWFUL if you have the clear speed to keep everything down in a decent time. Even mobs 1-2 levels under you give nearly a percent. The...

    Stances/Invocations make this game feel almost like a modern mmo. Unless you're cruise controling blues, when shit hits the fan you're often doing so much actual decision making beyond just hoping your spell goes through or your attacks hit more to save yourself. If anything this is the one...

    Day 1 we had a few problems with instancing and specifically people being able to join group instances in Befallen. Since then I've used multiplayer, single player, respawning and non-respawning and they've all worked. I think certain hot zones like Befallen/Najena are having zone corruption...

    Only revamped/low dungeons (Befallen/Najena/BlackBurrow) are currently guaranteed named spawns. The other dungeons are the standard 25% chance or whatever and Lguk is the usual 10.5 minute timer.

    Well you actually sound a lot dumber when you realize that no game runs off a physical disc anymore and you can just transfer the files to a usb stick you could carry around with you 24/7 if you really wanted.

    Entirely possible. The thing that will make people keep playing is constant live service style updates which is a fine line with a nostalgia based game. I could give a shit if they blew up Freeport with a bomb if I got a cool gauntlet wave of Orcs or something, but that would alienate 85% of...

    Probably true because I don't know if they've ever had a big launch. If they somehow got 20k people in a day it'd probably be the record. Most of their "big" games were established well after launch (planetside, H1Z1) so the launch numbers probably paled in comparison to the peak numbers when...

    The way it works now is the less extreme content, the more viable and fun builds there are, so it's probably a good idea. The second people start Fubgunning every aspect of the game and you need 15m dps to clear the high end content the builds get whittled down from the nearly ANYTHING GOES...

    Man that Golem better not be the dumbest, ugliest nothingburger to ever exist. But it probably is. OR Hilariously demigorgon Fatima starts to control it with her mind powers and follows around Ellis trying to smooch him. Unfortunately I could see that being way more likely.

    That's great, but if you had a disc and turned off your router and plugged it in. You think it's going to work with the state of "Day 1 Patches" in gaming today? Probably not, man. It'll probably suck ass, because Q&A doesn't exist and every giga publisher is just rushing quarter earnings...

    For the majority of players, yeah, it probably is. This isn't GTA San Andreas on people's PS2, this is a huge moddable multiplayer game with a single player story people go through once, MAYBE, and then play a bunch of whacky modes and shit people made online. It's like saying Halo or CoD is a...

    Demanding a physical disc for a game that runs online, on servers that are run by the company that makes the game is is a very boomer-brained thing. I've got a dozen+ discs of MMO's that are now defunct. Even if an EMU popped up you'd be able to download it for free to play it. It's just a...

    Weapon points are allocated separately. The green and pink lines denote the separate weapon points. He apparently uses only one set of weapons, but he has two setups for them. One clear and one single target. You can see the Set 1 and Set 2 setups for his gems and those ability are set to...

    I would guess he has weapon spec points in things and a lot of the online passive trees poorly indicate this. Sometimes they're indicated by different colors for weapon 2 points like green, but then the weapon 1 only points are still the same color. That would be my guess. The only other...

    They're hyper developing right now which I'm typically not a fan of, but some of this seems like stuff they had planned and hadn't gotten to yet. This pre-order beta is probably going to be very different at the start to where it ends. Sometimes that's a good thing so people can figure out...
