These damn no-drop items for the bard armor quests are rarer than some of the more coveted items in the game. I went to loot the fiery vambraces in sol and the damn corpse timed out the moment I clicked on it.

Couple of questions. Did the guise of the deceiver drop every time in classic eq? Everyone in my group got one in a matter of hours. What was their rationale for omitting rubicite from the loot database?

Slow? Exp gain is considerably faster than it was on classic servers.

It would be nice to have some consistency. I'll get a solid group together and then one guy will go LD and another will go afk for 10 minutes. I think I've spent more time looking for replacements than actually killing shit.

I don't know if this was an urban legend, but anyone remember a weapon that was purported to have an absurd damage rating and virtually zero delay but could only be used until you logged off? It might been been covered in flames as well.

Have classes changed all that much or are people just stubbornly sticking to the "trinity"? I've been grouped with every combination you can think of and haven't had any issues.

I'm a bard so I've found myself resorting to the same group-forming tactic that I used 18 years ago. I just do a / all *level and class* and send tells to everyone that comes up.

Jesus fucking Christ. Everything is camped on this server

What guild is everyone in?

What the fuck did they do to Steamfont?

How would you compare this server's population to servers during EQ's heyday?

If you don't have the resources and drive to earn capital through conventional means then chances are you don't have the experience and vision necessary to deliver the goods. Furthermore, this guy's experience as a PLAYER seems to be limited to using his wealth to get ahead in a shitty Korean...

good times

Speaking of single mob camps, that female dwarf by the lfay-akanon zone line was pretty popular for some reason. I had a shitty halfling warrior and it was the only thing I could solo (I thought soloing would be more efficient at the time). I think I graduated to the dwarves in Ocean of tears...

I remember reading about a dungeon that would spawn once a month in the middle of the Lake of Ill Omen and would occasionally swim out there like a dumbass. Similarly, there were whispers about a rare creature in the lake somewhere in the Rathe Mountains but I'm pretty sure that was just an...

Don't know if this guy was mentioned yet, but I was in a Vallon Zek guild Twelve Prophets with Brock Pierce whose claim to fame was a role in Mighty Ducks. I didn't know it at the time but he and the 18-year-old guild leader Alan (I thought he was 30-something) pretty much pioneered gold farming...

Who do I talk to about joining the guild?

I didn't know EQ had music until about a month in. I was grouped with a guy in Dagnor's Cauldron and when he told me the zone's music was creepy I thought he was pulling my chain. I opened up the options menu and sure enough the music was off by default. Changed my whole experience. Also...

There's a fundamental problem with their attempts to foil Savitar's plans BECAUSE HE HAS BARRY'S MEMORIES. It's so stupid that I started getting angry when Iris was revealed to be HR.

A black and white version is going to be released in theatres. That is some truly try-hard hipster bullshit.

Only caught the first season so far but this has the fight choreography I expected from Iron Fist

From what I've read, EQ now has something called Kronos which are tokens (I guess) that give you playing time and can be sold for real money. Apparently, this has created problems on past progression servers as it invites bots to take over most of the camps that provide rare items which are...

Does Furor still play EQ?

From what I've heard, this game uses projectile tracking rather than the subtle reticle tracking you normally see in console games. But yeah, I found the absence of aim assist on very hard frustrating more than anything because it's not intuitive at all. That's why you have that stupid time slow...

As someone who's never played on a progression server, do these typically develop a substantial population? It would be pretty cool to see old school zones like Crushbone and Unrest full of people.

Harvest arrows net you more resources when you hit a component. They're also used to collect resources from a body before looting. There are a few enemy types that are particularly weak to fire but freezing and tearblasting are generally the way to go. I played on very hard and those arrows...

Haven't really been following the development of this game but I certainly hope it recaptures the magic of EQ

This was a welcome break from the literary, exalted language of the first 3 episodes. That shit was exhausting.

It's better than Prometheus but that's not saying much. I still don't know why Neil Blumpkin's project was put on hold for this. Ridley Scott is becoming more known for his missteps these days.

Yondu's development really resonated with me, but I felt like Ego's story arc was way too epic to shorehorn into this movie.

The amnesia angle was seriously the dumbest plot device I've ever seen.

Jesus Christ. I've seen cosplayers with better costumes.

I'm not familiar with the book and didn't find it confusing. It does have the signature Bryan Fuller weirdness, though.

The lead is a solid actor but I really wish they'd make him shave that scumstache. I'm pretty sure he would have been executed in real life for having such pussy facial hair.

His position as executive producer doesn't guarantee much, if any, creative input.

Really? I thought he looked terrible. Had the facial flushing of an alcoholic.

This show is a fucking snoozefest. Why do they keep showing flashbacks to the same 3 or 4 events?

I'm as anti PC as the next guy, but the unnecessary vitriol just overshadowed the comedy. Oh, and Bill Cosby was never funny.

I can't believe people are excited for this crap. Peter Parker acts exactly like a 20-something English dude with a bad American accent.
