    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I play Paladin and use Grid for my raid frames and pretty much heal by targeting the player, hitting the keybind for whatever heal I want to use, then targeting next player, repeat. I've never had issues healing this way but I'm generally the odd man out as most everyone else uses mouseover...

    EQOA rose colored glasses thread or "How I learned to MMO"

    I played for the free month that came with it when I bought it. The open world was pretty awesome and in all honesty when I played the WoW beta it felt really similar to EQOA in a lot of ways. One of the things I remember from EQOA was swimming around high level zones so I could avoid aggro...

    It definitely looks like the majority of semi-decent players who would do LFR are Flexing instead. Additionally Blizz made the retarded decision to tune SoO for players who should have at least ToT LFR gear stats but because of the horribly itemized Timeless shit, people are now queuing with...

    They upped the drop rate considerably on ToT so it's worth running it before SoO. I had 10 mogu coins saved up on my DK but didn't really need them. After running each wing once I had 2 piece t15, a weapon, a trinket and a few various other upgrades that easily added another 20-30k dps over my...

    yeah Timless isle is really all you need. You should be in the 490's very quickly and one run through ToT should get you to where you can queue for SoO. Also, download the mod oQueue and you can get into cross realm Celestial and Nalak groups for an easy extra shot at loot.

    This. Every LFR I've run the DPS is so utterly miserable - which is surprising because it seems like at least 2 or 3 of the six healers are also DPSing - that we actually hit beserk timer on both Sha and Nazgrim more than once in the LFRs that I ran. Realistically I don't *need* to run LFR...

    Everquest II

    I believe it's still on via the scroll but have to have cancelled over 12 months ago or some shit to qualify. Sen'Jin is probably one of the better balanced servers - not that it matters though because you can download oQueue and do pretty much anything cross realm enabled in minutes.

    For all of the EQ fans you can now go to Timeless Isle and hold a camp with your group while grinding rep, getting trained and getting bitched at! It actually is somewhat fun though I must say

    The timeless isle stuff is basically for the purpose of getting a brand new 90 into the newest LFR without doing heroics and all the other stuff. It will all be replaced with gear from the SoO LFR or valor / TI Coin gear if you plan on playing the toon any significant amount.

    Timeless Isle is decently fun. It's novelty will wear off quickly, but I will say that is a step in the right direction making the grind a bit more free-form where you can explore without feeling like you are wasting your time. The BOA stuff is also a decent bonus. Just make sure you change your...

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

    Vicodin and Ambien is what brought us Vanguard. You'd think with all the nodding and lucid dreaming there'd be a lot less brown. This time make sure they slip him Adderall in place of his opiates.

    The one thing about Flex being a separate tier that is nice is that if you are in a progression guild with members who still need gear (i.e. the start of a tier) you can beat your head against a boss for 2 hours on non-flex/heroic, then say fuck it dropping to flex and spend the last hour...

    The only thing I could make out of that cluster fuck of text was that you "like da gearz" and "don't like da peepz". Sounds like you should stay MMO-Less.

    The fuck you talking about son? That's like exactly what everyone was saying (even without the redirect to MMO-champ). Yes I threw in some of my own opinion (about getting rid of LFR), but anyone with a 3rd grade reading comprehension should be able to separate that.

    Well they'll probably wind up throwing a difficulty level to the flex raid - LFR - Normal - Hard or something silly like that. LFR would cause you to queue for players and the other 2 would require pre-made.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The point is that flex will take the place of the 10 man raid as a tier between LFR and 25man. By and large I'd say 70ish+ percent of the 10 man guilds complete Normal modes and maybe a handful of Hard modes per raid tier so realistically it basically is a tier between LFR and Hard Mode as it...

    Is the MMO Market imploding?

    I didn't read any of this but I'll bet there was talk of devs not realizing MMOs need to require interaction and build communities and basically remake EQ1. Not just remake EQ1 technology and gameplay wise, but buy a time machine and send everyone who played it back to 1999 so that they could...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I seem to remember them saying they wanted to put a focus back on 25 man as the traditional progression guild raid size. It's likely that they may do away with 10's completely in favor of flex and keep 25 as the "normal/heroic" raid.

    It seems like they could just do a divide by ten type of thing for the presentation layer... but I'm no programmer so that might be all kinds of retarded performance wise. It would be nice to not be ilvl 750 and aiming for 400kdps next expansion though.

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    Not sure why you think this is missing. I deny applications to my guild all of the time because I know the person is an idiot. Likewise they get booted if they prove themselves to be an idiot after the fact. If you mean the overall shit fest of having to rely on a person and being majorly fucked...

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    Yeah the first couple of years they definitely were. Seemed to die off late Kunark though. But that reminds me of one time I had a group going with my Troll guild camping the croc in Guk and a GM snuck in invis and took off all of our pants. I remember one guy saying I think I'm bugged cause I...

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    EQ definitely felt epic in a way that no MMO probably ever will again. As an RPG fanatic, I definitely appreciated a lot of the subtle details and racial differences. I was a troll, I was hated by most other races and I was isolated out in the swamp, but I didn't care because I looked badass...

    Man you are very insightful. I can't wait to read the EQ thread where you ask why people still fucking play that game since SOE fucking ruined it. Then, maybe I can soak up your sage wisdom on the Rift thread where you query us as to why one would play it when Trion fucking ruined it. Maybe I'll...

    In 5.4 inquisition will be 20 seconds per HP so the normal 3 HP inq will last a minute now. That should be a pretty big dps increase.
