Can live without an Enchanter at all in any raid that doesn't have a lot of mezzing required, eg Emp, Rathe council. Otherwise can be replaced by clarity and haste potions for the first year of a TLP. Never enough bards, ideally you would like one per group. AE mana song should be on the raid...

Is @Atabishi Forgot Password coming out of retirement for this? there's already a Faceless as well as a Vicious guild planned, they need some competition.

Enchanter has the easiest time charming, they have their own tash, they also don't need the group to fuck around as much trying to find the right mob for them to charm, eg undead or animal. Nec is probably second easiest as at least they can ST their pet on break, Druid a distant third because...

Snuck that edit in before I could correct you, depending on clear speed and time between bosses it's rarely more than one boss where you don't have it up. Yeah the cat's been out of the bag for a long time on that one, expect 10-20 SK's at launch if your guild is big. Eg Faceless Usually...

SK dropping to B in Kunark? They are top tier DPS for that expac, they can beat everyone when unholy is up which is pretty often.

Kunark start has just been inferred by the Calendar entry, but I've been reminded that launch dates don't actually appear on it so we can't be sure there isn't a classic launch a month earlier. A Kunark start wouldn't bother me though, opens up alternate leveling paths, no need to grind those...

So much speculation so much is still unknown...

Yeah that one is always good for a laugh, apparently he went on to actually be a somewhat decent Enchanter and had a youtube channel for a while posting tutorials and set up guides for later expacs, dunno if we was particulary great but he put effort into improving at least.

Vicious will be back for another run, will probably compete up until PoP then guild will either continue as a shadow of it's former self (Bloodthirst) or fold like the rest (RI x 2, Cowboys etc).

Did the Cleric snare necklace a few times, both on Clerics and Troll Shaman, found it to be kinda overrated, slow cast, resists regularly and it's like the weakest snare in the game, better than nothing but I wouldn't bet my life on soloing in some dungeon with sow'd mobs with it. Stick to undead.

Gemini.. draw me a Dwarven Paladin.

LOLMiragul IMO TSS is the latest they should launch a TLP. Ability bloat isn't too terrible that people shouldn't be overwhelmed if they never played that late. There's a leveling path from 1-75 that people may not have experienced, or not for many years.

Funny how nearly every change they made in the last 5 years or so ends up benefiting these people and fucking over the casual playerbase.

You'll get another experimental server that nobody asked for and you'll like it.

I'm not sure it would work unless there's a dramatic and immediately noticeable difference. People tend to go to the same zones over and over for a lot of reasons beside ZEM. Easy to get to Loot Mob density Familiarity It's where the most groups are etc. Like Unrest xp feels like it has been...

Free trade but only group loot is randomised.

Yeah each TLP has a few more players than the previous that decide "If you can't beat em, join em".

Any discords for guilds planning to form on 25th server(s) yet?

Sounds like playing games with cheat codes, fun at first being OP but probably gets old fast.

Been ignoring this game due to all the controversy about sodomy being pushed constantly by NPCs. Heard rumors about mods that let you enjoy the game without wanting to throw every second NPC you encounter into a wood chipper. Is that still a thing you can get?

Knowing Daybreak it will mostly target casuals using SEQ or auto foraging while AFK and leave the big warping botting crews completely untouched.

May release is standard, minus the 20th anni servers which dropped in March.

At least one of them should be forced to join and raid with the next iteration of Rapiers, so they can experience the blunt end of the stick on a fresh TLP.

Yeah there are no Zaide, Atabishi, Mabbu (insert other sweaty guild leader) types that care about that shit left. Most guilds are happy to run their dz's and kill whatever they can with 12 hours of raiding per week. Not sure why some seem to think that is a bad thing.

Guilds often cancel their last couple of raids in an expac to give people a break before pushing hard in the next one. I'd probably wait to see turn out tomorrow before jumping to any conclusions.

Yeah I think he's definitely on the spectrum somewhere, possible Asperger's (amateur internet diagnosis so take with a pile of salt) or something along those lines, because he's quite smart but pretty bad inter personal skills. Not the first or last guild leader like that though. Like kicking...

I feel for Shmerpy, he's actually a cool dude, but seems unable to cut the umbilical cord keeping him attached to Grok.

EoT I said months ago that there is a finite number of players on any server willing to tolerate Grok's shit, and he's burned through most of them already this time.

What happened with MoM? looks like they had a bit of an exodus.

Yeah the bullshit of the last 7 weeks or so certainly put a dent in the population but calling it dead is an exaggeration. Our guild probably gained more than we lost during that time. It wasn't the ruleset as some people claimed to predict though, it was the incompetence of Daybreak staff...

.

Ban wave out, not sure what for, people speculating that it was for "exploiting" the red wine quest but seen people claiming they got a suspension despite not even playing or turning in any red wine. This fucking company...

havent asked, but I don't think the PLers are taking platinum.

Not mine but found it amusing, the real producers letter. Everquest Producers Letter Goodbye 2023, Hello 2024! by Jan Chen This year we did alot of things. We started many things and finished only a few things. The one thing we finished is the new expansion, but it isn't working properly so...

Mischief with randomized group drops, but not the raid nonsense where groupable mobs were dropping bis items.

Yeah the legacy bonus fuck up had me soured on the server as it was, then the dupe happened, could live with that as I profited a bit from it, but the lack of communication, followed by the bullshit responses from Angeliana "Acshually it's the players fault for spreading misinformation" and...

Wasn't even planning on playing this until they turned the EQ Oakwynd TLP into a dumpster fire. Only ever played WoW casually and never raided, looking to dip my toes into playing this semi seriously. Would a Priest be a bad starter choice? Figure I'll just play whackamole with health bars...

Yeah apparently this article dropped before they released that statement. https://www.mmorpg.com/news/everquest-players-up-in-arms-over-dupe-exploit-lack-of-communication-from-darkpaw-games-2000129581 Her response to that being pointed out..

Probably didn't even get banned, just packed up and went to do something else since the plat they were getting was suddenly worth far less than it was the day before.
