    Shaman epic, while a stat stick for 99% of its life had a joyous period of time where it was a clicky heal. It was some odd-ass bug that they introduced into the game, that made it a heal but only targettable like a detrimental spell. The beauty? You can cast detrimental spells on yourself. So...

    I don't think its fair to say I'm placing "messiah expectations" on EQNext. But my point stands that this is likely the last game we'll see for quite some time to break the WoW mold if it is a giant fucking flop. I am desperate for this game to not blow chunks, nothing beyond that. It just needs...

    I'm desperately hoping EQNext turns out decent. The MMO genre fucking needs it. Its the first western game from a major company to truly diverge from the WoW model. It NEEDS to succeed. If it doesn't, we're doomed to continue the mediocrity we've dealt with for the past god knows how many years...

    I'm not a DOTA/LoL/HoN player, so I don't know how it feels in those games. However, my gut reaction is that it leaves a bad taste in my mouth not having a cancel for any ability. For PvE I see the validity of it; Risk taking the big hit from the boss to get off your powerful ice comet...

    I like the armor look and while I think the animation on the caster staff ice ball thing is FAR too slow to go off, I like the animation delay. This isn't a tab target system, its an action-hybrid system. You NEED combat not to be 100% instant to give people a fighting fucking chance. Without...

    Fun Trivia: Ascent was a second tier guild behind IV (who was also second tier, but slightly ahead of Ascent) in the PoP days; Smashing on Ascent's dreams was fun during that era. in GoD they became a world-wide leader though.

    Also in Luclin there was a way to use vendors to buy/sell diamonds for a profit. I'm not positive on how it worked though.

    It certainly sounds like you've got a vendetta. If you truly don't care about all this stuff as you say, then why bother continuing this shit? You sound like you're absolutely frothing at the mouth over this bullshit, and it is bullshit.

    If FD failed you'd still be on aggro and thus rampage. Also, I never had a delayed FD fail message; I did, however, get my FD broken by spells many a times.

    Fires of Heaven - The good, the bad, and the whatever else.

    This is accurate and exactly what I was saying. Dropping aggro wouldn't change your position, like you said. So FM would only remove you from rampage until you ended back up on the aggro list. You were never actually removed from the rampage list, you were simply considered an invalid target...

    I'm 99% sure it was. Even if it wasn't, a monk feigning isn't going to perma drop him off ramp, just while he's down. So, clerics shouldn't have been getting ramped regardless.

    Fires of Heaven - The good, the bad, and the whatever else.

    If your monks feigned when the mob didn't flip toward them they were idiots. Feign didn't lower hate much, and turning off auto attack for 20 seconds was a MUCH more effective way of controlling aggro than feigning for any length of time. Even if you were one that used feign to drop aggro down...

    Fires of Heaven - The good, the bad, and the whatever else.

    Rampage worked funky. It was kind of like how you describe it; It creates a hard list of targets based on order of aggro. First on the hatelist=first on rampage list, and so forth. Then it goes down that list, invalidating the current target, and rampages on the top target in range that isn't...

    They did fix it, and you could do it solo if you timed it right. You have to feign the second the shuriken hits, so that they don't leave their spawn points. Insta-mem wipe.

    Fires of Heaven - The good, the bad, and the whatever else.

    Let me explain this: During the vanilla-PoP era mobs assisting each other was actually an ability. This ability had a cooldown of 6 seconds (what I can only assume was a technical limitation due to server ticks). If you could force the burn of this ability, you could single pull that same mob...

    People keep saying that pulling as a monk took skill. It took no fucking skill. Shuriken, feign the absolute second it hits, stand and shuriken. Voila, fucking single. At least, thats how it used to work. They fixed that shit a long time ago.

    Extremely flawed logic. Bad analogy too. The MMO space is a dynamic market, selling steaks isn't. One payment model wasn't profitable so they moved to a different payment model that was. Its not a sign of failure, its a sign of smart management.

    But whats wrong with them switching up level grinding for the gear grind? Just because it boils down to time investment doesn't mean that the time investment to get gear can't be far more varied. Some camping, some mini-raiding, some questing, etc..As opposed to all quest or mob grinding.
