People threw a temper tantrum about everything in the preorders, and then ordered anyway. If you didn't see that then you weren't paying attention at all. SWTOR went F2P because it's a half ass single player game with MMO tacked on like an afterthought, it was rushed out the door, and their...

This is not going F2P. Physical preorders were sold out within a week of sales opening, and Amazon has only caught up well enough to start selling them again as of yesterday. While people were throwing a temper tantrum because Imperial Edition preorders include a horse that's slower than...

That explains it. I'm sure they kept the code for that around (one would hope!), so at some point we'll hopefully see staves like that appear again. I'd prefer targeted healing to AoEs, smart heals, etc in raids because they should allow for better agro control. Healing one target effectively...

I would have though that depends on the staff, but you may be right. Skills - Esohead - Elder Scrolls Online Database A First Look at Group Dungeons in ESO - YouTube I swear I've seen otherwise, but I can't figure out where. That's disappointing if I'm remembering incorrectly.

Restoration staves can be aimed though.

How soon we forget. When EQ was brand-spanking-new, I was too busy with work to be very involved. In fact, Velius was out before I could really devote to it the time it required to advance with any notable speed. By the time Luclin was out, I had maxed my level and caught up to others who...

If you want to maximize your healing abilities and use a bow, then train the bow and a resto staff. You'll be able to switch between them with a keypress at level 15. Templars have the best class abilities for healing, so in those early levels you can probably be an effective-enough PvE healer...

You just set your sights too high. Everyone knows, you could only do that to Vindi. The EQ feel comes from something pointed out as a potential flaw on this board. It's not just the teamwork aspect because, let's face it, in the big beta sessions everybody is still a noob. Granted, you...

It wasn't only my alliance that had this happen, but let's examine the facts. Entire raids would disconnect in unison. I was in one during the battle of lore that waged between Aleswell and Chalman and members on Teamspeak in the raid group were playing in the U.S. on the East and West costs...

Exactly, and sorry for the edits. I just can't stress enough how amazing that experience was even though it seemed some techie was pushing a "ruin it" button. And this happened to alliance members selectively, simultaneously, but not only on one alliance -- that's how we know it was fake lag...

From mrmoneda's article Yeah, it's pretty amazing how easy that is when your servers force entire raids of attackers to disconnect at one time, isn't it? So if the attackers aren't allowed to play then small groups of defenders can hold them off indefinitely? Wowsers. Amazing. What was...

If all you do at level 30 is kill snakes in Freeport, then that's on you. Quit fighting overworld trash mobs unless they're a few levels over you, and start exploring dungeons. Not every game holds your hand to help you find the content you want. Sometimes you have to explore and actually...

If we're not resurrected by somebody nearby then a happy pixie floats down from the sky, winks, crinkles her nose, wiggles her rear end, and we're whisked away to a magical well. Oh, but that mischievous pixie scuffed our armor! ... Yeah, no, that's about it but without an actual pixie...

Doesn't that depend upon the level and era? dat Kunark hell levels... That's why it's hard to talk about EQ today. LDON wasn't the same game as Kunark. Hell, Velius wasn't the same game as vanilla.

Negative. One on one melee facerolls stuns while strafing in a circle. Granted, you can hit them with tabbed targeting, but you can't see what they're doing and therefore lose the edge of reacting before abilities fire, using visual cues. Meanwhile they keep that advantage. The gap closers...

You're never 20 minutes away. There is a teleportation system, but to teleport to a place, your alliance must control the resource nodes around it and the enemy must still be working on using siege equipment to knock down doors and walls. Once they're inside (and some times if it's under siege...

Those "ifs" are more about what a guild chooses to do than is lucky or unlucky enough to do. So long as their home campaign is set during the time period they'll normally play in, they can see an indicator of the population of each alliance in that instance, at that time, and select...

I'm wishing we could get more information about adventure zones. The impression that I get from what little has leaked by rumor here and there is, picture Velius raid zones the size of Skyrim. Cyrodiil isn't all there is to ESO; it's just the most interesting part we've seen so far. If it...

Changing campaigns costs enough alliance points that your average hour or two a day player won't have enough to move often. If people move their home campaign too much, then it gets more expensive; easy fix. If the guilds that have been around for a while get a well-populated map then the zerg...

If Pantheon doesn't get funded well, he can always do voice overs for Nicholas Cage. I can not unhear that. Roughly 15 years of memories altered by one comment from my ol' lady.

I've used it and I'm still exploring it. The source was just released recently, and there's a Github community, forums, and subreddit for it. I like its scripting language. Dynamically typed, procedural or object oriented depending on how you use it, and there's support to edit class...

This is based on Draegan's post; not quoted so I don't post an epic wall of text between his post and mine. 1) The part about the patcher is spot-on, and there are reports of other problems popping up now and then. 2) I played an archer exclusively, and found that tab targeting always...
