    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    While I don't personally blame ol furor for wow's faults, and hate to say this, chris is right here. He is linked directly with hurt stock value and indirectly with the deteriorating quality of the game aspect he was growing more responsible for. Myself, I think the stock loss for woke bullshit...

    I felt the same way about normal eq until... aradune launch maybe? Anyone actively punished always had something going on. I was constantly in the most toxic guilds and had a littany of forum bans and didn't get touched in game because I never scammed or trained, just raced and shittalked. They...

    I like rogean and dont care for the wonder twins, but that WAS some pure spite gm shit and p99 totally does have a history of devs being corrupt dicks, so I don't think it's really a loose use of it here.

    Every other tlp is an unbalanced shitshow for autists with zero tactics for endgame raids outside of zerging content.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    The problem with free trade is it cheapens the achievement of gear you get and creates a further market aspect to what appears to be a hardcore server. If they could somehow have free trade "unlock" on items once their "level" is met (up to luclin at 60, god at 65, etc) while the challenge items...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    The nice thing about sk shm is there arent many "bad" thirds. Lots of ideas work. For your magician backup, its a wildly strong class at low levels, but I actually think a necro is generally better here. You don't need malo or your pet to tank, and when trioing your kill speed tends to be...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    One of the nice things about a 40 cap with GoD era pets and xp and what I assume any "spells land easier" effect will have on charming, is it'll take like 3 evenings to casually hit 40 for many people, or one solid day if you have the time and good group. I don't see why you couldn't swing by...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    To add to what was said, most TLP servers start to see a population drop once planes of power is beaten. My observation is that its uneven and you'll have like one guild only lose a few people for half a year and another implodes, or one guild lose all its casters and no other classes, but it...

    So solo/pug inaccessible. That DOES alienate a lot of perpetual TLPers. Easy solution though is join a guild.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    I wouldn't count on extensive dev work. I imagine something like everyone counts as 10 levels higher for spells etc and maybe 20 levels higher when zoning. Remove recommended and required level tags. Done.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    It is perpetually going to have content 10 levels before its normal level release. So tss at 65 and sof at 70 etc. Rather than one of the supposed hardest eq expansions having tunat triple split after a week, you'll potentially be trying to get him at all while 60 or lower.

    Who cares if you don't kill quarm until 65? That's how every other tlp works anyway? There'll be a handful of things like dodh and tss named doable with better gear drops but overall time and gates stuff will still be useful as a 65 capped in tbs era. Meanwhile, time probably will be cleared at...

    Pantheon is more than 10-15 years away at current pace so IMO you answered the op question.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Every god zone has a zonewide item or two that can drop from ANY mob. Riwwi is a better fungi tunic I think. Barindu is a ring or something like that. The named themselves summon so may be wildly hard. Revamped nurga, droga, and veksar loot is decent and likely obtainable rather easily. Just do...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    I like the level locked system. Adds a challenge to the game and puts some real sense of accomplishment behind many of the kills. The timing is pure shit for me personally but if things were different I'd go there. Content not being pure faceroll could be an awesome thing. If you hate new ideas...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Counterargument is that leveling to 50/60 is a one off and few people race, so having balance AT max level is significantly more important than trying to tweak the path to it.

    A riwwi bro of the same level as a griegs mob gives slightly less xp, hits way harder, has a bit more hp, and sometimes has special abilities.

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    Yeah once you actually hit a level cap there's a lot of viability to some of these new zones. It also depends if rec/req levels are removed. There's stuff like abysmal sea or natimbi, and droga/nurga rescue quests that nobody ever does which I could see being decent here. A lot of the op caster...

    Ct has awful mob makeup. Droga, nurga, and veksar seem to be victims of kunark zem neutering, and the mobs are a bit chonky. Loy similar deal, mobs are kinda rougher than elsewhere. There's reasons to go to these places and I suspect they see action, but probably not from people trying to race...

    We had a loot rule back on selo that if someone was willing to spend some super high dkp amount (it was set at a number that only a few top tier items tended to be outbid by) the guild would go back and raid that shit for you. So, one day, a new warrior decided he wanted to finish bic and he...

    Mischief is really popular, rizlona is perfect if you hate being social outside raids, and there are various phinny clones to choose from. If a level locked mass autism server isn't your thing, just play elsewhere and don't feel bad? You do not HAVE to start over every tlp cycle!
