    I like my paladin for grouping. Raiding is mostly full of DT eating and stunning trash when mezzes break. Soloing just plain sucks, but they make a good duo class.

    I'm sure it's proxied and NATed and what not. Best you could probably do is trace the login server - you should be able to find that info in one of the ini files.

    Fear instance was bugged and we got 2 dracos and 2 CTs. Though I guess the joke was on us since we got 2 boxes and 6 piccolos out of it.

    Paladin is great. I get to sit through the hard stuff and maybe throw out a hero LoH. Then I take all the paladin loot cause I'm the only one!

    Honestly, I haven't grouped with many. Though zero complaints about the ones I have. LD is probably who I have encountered the most outside of AoS, OGC and PP and no complaints about them either.

    Just levelling up via the pug life, I can say that OGC and Pixel Pirates tend to not know how to play very well and are generally more juvenile in attitude. Yes there have been needles in both haystacks but I generally don't group with either if I can avoid it. EoE and AoS have all been good peeps.

    Apparently posky expedition is the first TLP buffed edition where everything is 50% harder? We took 20 people (avg raid lvl 47) up to the open zone and cleared everything up to KoS (not enough DPS or people to outlive DTs) with relative ease. We ran our expedition tonight with 41 people (49 avg...

    I really want to soon, but I still need to go 46-50 this weekend so might not get to while double xp is on. I dropped the box quick after 12 hours opening day got me lvl 7. Way too much to deal with 2 boxing when xp is cut rate

    Mage would make for a more passive box. Really just need to send in pet for most stuff and dot with the shaman. Necro though excels when you need to break a more complex camp and of course undead will melt.

    You can have decent success with any class + shaman. If you want to totally mow shit down though, shaman + necro or mage is a great combo.

    Yeah the hole is even where it's at for Kunark (ghosts anyway). I actually think OOT gobs are faster if you can pull them fast enough. The hole has it all though, good loot, good exp and fast repops. My group there yesterday must have had 4-5 smoldering brands drop while we were there, 1 loam...

    The new formula is probably double exp weekends once every month or so with a potion sale conveniently right afterward!

    Started at 25 on Saturday and am 44 now. No shortage of groups as a tank and had I been more selective I could easily be pushing 50. I'm hoping to go 46 tomorrow before noon. Been a fun weekend for sure!

    Put in 8 hours in unrest today. Went from 20 to 25.5 - potted for 4 hours. I don't think I'll have a problem being 50 by the 1 month mark. My guild should do fine in classic but I've always hated kunark levelling. It was a giant grind on release, still felt like a grind on LJ and if they keep...

    tanks aren't as scarce as they were on LJ. Paladins are still pretty rare though. Same dude that was selling a Ghoulbane for kronos yesterday gave me a freebie this afternoon. I'm ready for that FP group now.

    They pretty much destroyed boxing anything but a full group atm. Duoing exp rates are dismal as you can't realistically kill mobs that yield decent exp at a good rate. I duo'd my toons to lvl 23 or so on LJ in well under 10 hours played. I'm at 14 hours played now and only at lvl 8. Granted I...

    The only unique things are the "true box" aspect and instancing. Otherwise it's the same shit as LJ/RF.

    Efreeti will respawn but you or anyone who started the instance can't loot it after the first kill for 4.5 days or whatever. It's not going to be worth farming stuff like that in an instance because that's basically one GEBS per 6 people per 4.5 days. It would be way easier to just go the...

    Have to be 46 to start an instance.

    That's why they have the lock, so you can't do that lol. After the first time you kill Efreeti in an instance you get the loot lockout.

    New Progression Server confirmed

    From what I gather, it takes at least 6 to start an instance and once a mob is killed all 6 are locked out from looting that mob in an instance. I suppose the point would be to keep people from just farming things like Djarn/Tranix/Rokyl in an instance and to also steer people towards using the...

    I'm assuming you can still access the island, there will just be no respawns for 6.5 days

    If they merged LJ and RF and set up instancing I wonder how many people would leave. I know I never gave a shit about the bots. But knowing you at least get to do one full boss clear each week is too good to pass up for any "casual" raiding guild.

    I'm going to play one. They are the best 1-50 tank and while they don't add a hell of a lot to a raid until they get the group heals, they're rare enough that you can suck up uncontested loot pretty easily.

    Yeah EQ would have to be really really dead before they shut it off. Once they cook up the right formula for these TLPs they can probably draw a small profit from them for a few years easily. If my guild moves I'll go to the new server. Otherwise I'll just level up an alt in my spare time to...

    New Progression Server confirmed

    If it were 3 day spawns and one guild got them all, the server would die off big time. EQ was never a "small guild," game. Every guild I have ever been in that started having less than 20 people active during prime time died out fast. As it stands there is just enough to stay busy for the rest...

    Hmmm... on all the servers I played on there was one guild that was miles ahead of everyone else and then the 2nd tier guilds rabidly fought each other and had GM interventions with at least 50% of their "races." Veeshan was probably one of the worst servers for this. I bet you there are logs...

    He must have gone back up to 100% after Amicorum wiped on him 2-3 times. Someone was probably stoked to get some scales at least. Speaking of scales, did they leave in the red to green conversion quest? I'm assuming no.

    Doesn't have anything to do with level? I resisted 100% of Ragefire's fears, but only 25% of Talendor's. edit: meant to say I took 75% of talendor's fears.

    Amicorum took a couple shots, then DHS took at least 2 before we found him wandering around 40% health. We had just finished popping a couple ragefires so took a shot and wiped when he was at 5%, DHS finished him from there. I had 196 MR fully buffed and still caught about 75% of the fears at...
