The Marohi is 90% of that build. You're basically highlighting how trading is the way to accomplish anything meaningful in this game. I farmed non-stop for a month and saved all rare imperial mauls, piledrivers, terror mauls and meatgrinders for the 5x rare recipe, as well as chancing about...

Oh, and that will happen. It will happen again and again and again and again. I found a 5L thicket bow at one point and decided to just keep chaosing it until I got a nice roll and then build a ranger around it. 50+ chaos orbs later, I hadn't got a single set of remotely usable stats. Not even...

We don't, and have very specifically mentioned this so as to ward off fallacious bullshit like yours. Didn't seem to work. Self-found play should be reasonably viable within the premises of the game. It isn't really, because almost every long-term goal in this game is gated behind a gear...

Alright, I'm done with PoE. I had already shelved it once but decided to give it a final chance because there was nothing else to play lately, and it's just hopeless. A full week of playing, doing maps pretty much exclusively the entire time. +70% quantity and +160% rarity. Not one single...

Spoken like a true guy who's wrong.

Well, after Garuda there's just Titan and then Coil so it's not as if there's a long series of content blocks to tune. Quite easy to get a good "difficulty progression" when there's almost no content.

As far as I know, they haven't got a database at all. That's not the most skill-intensive part of making a server, but it is the biggest workload and one that can in no way be done by one person. If you want any kind of legitimacy, it takes a shitload of research and testing or you'll get a...

This ware is going to vaporize yet again, mark my words.

So this game dropped off the radar. Is it dead?

There's only really two kinds of people who still care about EQ: people who grew up and have lives but maintain some nostalgia for the glory days, and people who sacrificed their lives for EQ back when it was relevant and simply never moved on. The latter group consists of depressed, mentally...

And minors?

I hear Rogean is in court facing thirty to life for this.

Leather and Steel is amazing if you think you'll be wearing heavy armor. Armor and armor/ES chests give -8% movement speed and the other armor types give -4%. Same goes for shields. That one node can potentially give what amounts to +16% movespeed in addition to the tidy armor/evasion bonus.

Lumie is the new Kegz. 2002user off the hook.

Luminati clearly has narcissistic personality disorder.

I remember way back in the day you couldn't alt-tab out of the classic client.

If anyone wishes to commit suicide, I reckon an effective method would be to hold your breath for EQC.

They killed it by rez-zerging it with like 100+ people. Once you have enough swinging dicks, you can simply rez people faster than the mob can kill people. If you can then outdamage its regen and it doesn't take so long that people lose multiple levels from the tiny exp loss you get with each...

Wait, so you want to sue the operators of a free, non-profit server for banning you when there's no legal structure whatsoever, no terms of service or anything else that makes anybody accountable in any conceivable way? That's like suing the people in the park because they no longer want to play...

Kegz also used to thread-sit and make defensive posts against everything said about him.

Who's talking about adding useless uniques? I specifically said they need to make more generally useful ones instead of tailoring them to their own particular builds. I'm talking about stuff like Mors makingthiswhich is completely worthless for anything except his own build which nobody else has...

1) same exact posting style, using the same phrases and saying the same things 2) both Kegz and 2002user once gave me negative rep on the same day for posting about the Sleeper being crap 3) same obnoxious attitude, same opinions, hates the same things, completely identical in every way...

Weekend betas are particularly stupid because half of it is usually wasted as server instability and other issues are inevitable.

Last time P99 was attacked, it happened right after Kegz was banned from this forum and laughed out of the thread. This time, it happens right after his alt account is found out and he quits the forum. If I didn't already know how much of a blistering moron he is, I'd say it's too obvious and...

Man, how shit are the launch titles for these next-gen moneyhogs?

In terms of skills, it's exactly the same except it's a bit harder to aim ground-targeted AoE spells with a controller. Anything else is fine and I think the game handles better on a console. The real difference is in the loot mechanics, the console version has "Loot 1.5" which is some...

All they would really need to do is stagger the release of the new uniques so that what gets designed during this season gets introduced throughout the next season. This rules out paying for an upgrade for your current character, and encourages making uniques that suit the general game instead...

There seem to be few restrictions on what supporters are allowed to design, which is why we're seeing increasingly weird uniques like ones whose stats change based on the fucking colours of the sockets. I was especially disappointed to see one of the most prominent players of the community get a...

Hey, my thread. I'm OP

Great... I bought Magic 2014 for the PS3 to play sealed and it turns out that you can only create two sealed decks, can't delete them, and it costs money for more deck slots than the two. So you get to play sealed twice and then you have to shell out for the right to continue. This kind of shit...

They could do plenty of things that don't require launching multiple blue servers. The fact of the matter is that their refusal to simulate there being 20+ servers to choose from is creating an environment that's even less classic than if they did something semi-custom to prevent endgame...

Nobody griefed me off the server, I quit because the server was garbage. It was also two years ago and I haven't touched it since. Don't get your panties in a bunch because I said something about your friends.

And still, despite the wealth of raid content in Velious, one guild will claim every single bit of it and cockblock the other 95% of the server from the endgame for years to come. Business as usual. If P99 has one big failing, it's that they've done nothing to emulate the fact that Everquest had...

Can't help but feel a little schadenfre?e about EQMac shutting down after how that community treated PC players with what basically amounts to rampant racism and campaigned to have everyone who didn't own a Mac banned from the server. Maybe if they hadn't been disgusting douchebags, someone...

I don't know anything about what went down later on, I quit after like a month which was when the server basically died. This was before Nihilum was even formed. At the time, the server was falling apart for three reasons: 1) Null's ridiculous custom resist system that nobody wanted 2) The...

It's especially dumb when you realize the actual reason why R99 failed: the admins did nothing to stop people like Holocaust and their likeness from griefing/annoying everyone off the server. While other factors contributed, that is ultimately what kills a server. Itemloot is only going to make...

It really is an extreme gear grind. While that is to be expected in an ARPG, I think PoE goes too far with how statistically improbable it is to find something good. This completely forces you into trading - heavy, constant, all-encompassing trading - if you want to really scratch the surface...

That's quite the baseless conspiracy theory you've got there.

Eh, you'd have to endure playing with the biggest twats on the server if you do that since the first 10 level 50s are invariably intolerable, socially handicapped people who are able and willing to play 18 hours a day. It isn't worth it. You really don't want anything to do with the dregs of a...

Does anyone seriously consider IPs proof of anything in 2013? I have access to three or four different ones without needing it or trying to get them, they just sort of crop up. If I actually wanted it, I could have any number of them and post with twenty different accounts that wouldn't share an...
