Well, not really... about 3 hours not including staring at the launcher. Really close to completely giving up on this server.

My play session today has been sitting in the same spot for about 3 hours waiting for my (Seer) epic quest NPC to spawn. Apparently the Viking one respawns every 10 minutes.

Leveling in 8 man groups is fine and all, but these guys gotta get their shit together. I started out in an 8 man after the server launched. Once we got to level 10 we went to Nisse's Lair (the first dungeon in Midgard) and there were no mobs to be found in the entire dungeon. So we were like...

Dude, when I got level 50 last night 6 people in my group were in the teens. It doesn't really matter what level people are in your group, you just need to do 1 damage to a mob to get the tag for exp. It's kinda shitty to refuse to group the low levels. You could have 1 40+ AE class and 7 level...

Pyksel, what's your name in-game? Also, about to be level 50 Healer wtb epic armor.

You don't need to be in a battlegroup, I've been leaching for the past few hours outside of the battlegroup because I've been too lazy to join.

Is there a way to see accurate server status? The launcher says 700 people are on Origins, but I can't log in so I assume the server is down. Their website doesn't seem to list server status anywhere.

Level 41. Would be 50 if the server would stop having a stroke.

I wonder if all realms are doing that shit. It would be interesting if everyone hits 50 in a few hours and goes out to snag keeps, and you end up with giant zergs with absolutely no gear duking it out.

Welp, I'm level 38. I wonder if they do a rollback/wipe.

So after the server came back up, I logged in and after a few minutes I became desynced or something. Couldn't interact with anything, talk, etc. I couldn't /quit so I closed the window and now when I try to log in it says Your account is logging out, wait 1 minute. It's been 10+ minutes...

You mean the battlegrounds, right? Maybe I can convince my PUG to go there after the server comes back up. Are you playing Midgard?

Did three newbie quests. Two were broken as fuck. Got my Healer to level 12 in about 3 hours of grouping with random people. Don't solo, the group bonus is absolutely insane. Mob drops are pretty high as well. I haven't seen any "cash loot" (bear asses that you can go back and sell)...

Rune - Healer.

Damn, what caused this sudden shift from Midgard to Albion? Was gonna play with you guys, but don't think I can abandon Midgard.

So, my only response to you is to repeat what I just said earlier. There's nothing "classic" feeling about SoD whatsoever. SoD has 2000 HP loot, its own lore, its own map, its own custom everything It turns EverQuest into a completely different game. I'm not looking for a different game, I'm...

I feel like people are campaigning for a new server not because they think it'll fix any sort of problem, but because they just want a new server since they didn't get a chance to camp a guise/manastone/whatever. Creating a new server doesn't fix a problem, it just creates a new one. I know...

This is a bit misleading. Most guilds liked the agreement. The couple that didn't apparently had a problem with the fact that there wasn't enough discussion on it (or something). I really don't understand why guilds don't just pass this agreement and lift the raid ban, since it allows every...

Tons of EQ exploits but a couple that were a bit more unique/possibly not known about: One day I'm doing who knows what when I read some interesting shit on the serverwide shaman channel (thecrucible). I think LoY just launched that day, and someone had found out that a mob in Gukta...

How the fuck do you guys consider Shards of Dalaya a "classic" server? It's so fucking custom the zones don't even connect the same way, and there's 2000 hp 2000 mana loot. It's about as far away from what I said as you could possibly get.

What I would love to see is if a custom server and P99 had a bastard child. Essentially, the bug fixing and overall polish (for EQEmu at least) that P99 has, but with a custom take on classic EQ. Just wipe all the items and NPCs and re-do it by scratch. Uber loot every 5 feet in Lower Guk but...

To be fair (and yes I know this post is relatively old), everyone was invis pulling everything. No-name no-guild shaman/monk duos were doing fungi king. I'm pretty much a nobody and I farmed like 6 tunics in a week using that shit. That's how I could afford stuff like Puppet Strings with no real...

Friar is one of my favorite MMO classes of all time too, but they were never really included much in "serious" 8 man groups. I think they fit more of a non-stealth solo class, but not show how they are in that regards compared to say a Valewalker.

If we can have enough of a solid, dependable group of people I'll play a Healer. Otherwise I'll play a Skald or a Berserker. I'd like to go Paci/Healing from the start, but that's probably the only class/spec combination in the game with absolutely no ability to solo anything.

I don't understand what advantage this server has over say, Uthgard which has been in development for years. I have a feeling that I'll end up just going back to Uthgard, but I'll check out Origins. I have a 50 Skald on Uthgard, and will most likely be playing Mid on Origins.

If Vanguard ran well it would have been even better than EQ. That game was one hell of an MMO and it's a shame that it never got the praise it deserved considering it was, well, a technical piece of shit.

I didn't realize intentionally causing people to lose large amounts of their time instead of actually being able to play the game was one of the selling points of FOH MC servers. Edit: I have some diamond tools, iron armor, and some other stuff from the nether mess to be claimed. There was a...

a) Why should I be inconvenienced and required to use my own portal hundreds of blocks away just because of people who aren't responsible enough to not turn the main portal into a death trap? I've never even seen people aggro zombie pigmen right at the main portal before in 3 years of playing...

Or people can stop griefing by needlessly attacking pigmen at the portal.

Well, that's the third time someone has fought zombie pigmen at the nether portal without warning anyone and I've lost my shit. I'm in a perpetual loop of spending days grinding equipment and losing it to someone else's stupidity. Can we start banning people for this shit? Edit: Okay...

I used to say this too. The cancellation of Earthbound 64 was crushing for me. Then Mother 3 came out for GBA. It wasn't a bad game, but it felt more like some random average RPG attempting to feel like Earthbound. I don't think they're able to recapture that Earthbound magic and they know it...

It's a great game for awhile, while it's hard. Then you start to figure out how it works and how to use the more overpowered strategies like boarding, and you can win 70%+ of the time on normal. Then it gets boring. Never got a couple of the harder ships. Game desperately needs some sort of PvP.

Assassin's Creed. No particular reason other than it was boring. Fallout 3. It was buggy and I crashed a lot on a really nice system. The "freeze time while I select parts of your body to shoot" thing was dumb. The kicker was that at some point in Megaton the mayor died and I looted some keys...

I still need some ender pearls to complete the portal. If anyone wants to donate any to me, you can come kill the dragon (or you still can anyways). The dragon drops enough experience to get one person up to level 80 or so, which isn't quite as important since we have an exp grinder. But once...

Was considering killing the dragon so I could farm ender pearls a bit easier, but didn't know if anyone would get mad if I took out a one-time-event thing.

Not sure what you're talking about. I have awful internet and an awful computer, and it doesn't lag me. As far as I know, this problem is on your end. There's no pistons that can be removed in the design, and I'm not sure what you mean by "resetting redstone circuits." I explained how the...

Something about Kefka yelling "Son of a submariner!" as Edgar's castle dives under the desert is pretty hilarious to me, and I find it wholly more entertaining and interesting than the aforementioned alternatives "son of a sandworm/shiiiiiit!" Woolsey's humor doesn't come off as campy to me at...

I've played this, and I didn't really like it. It's probably my least favorite of the translation efforts. I don't think literal translations work very well. Even the different character names kinda ruin it for me. For example, I'm not sure if you've ever triggered the super secret scene the...

Yeah, pistons are kinda buggy right now, nothing you can really do about that. If you notice a blaze stuck in a piston, you just have to thrown down a torch/lever or whatever next to the piston on the outside to reset it. Some blazes were spawning on top of the spawner and staying there. I...

Also... the blaze farm seems kinda slow compared to other ones I've built. Does one of the server plugins limit how many mobs can be spawned in an area?
