    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    Buffing, Crowd Control, and Pulling have always been fringe things that were vastly needed to keep RPGs great, but at the same time required having the right group make up before you could start playing for the session. Tanks, healers, and DPS are a no brainer. Every MMORPG has them in great...

    EverQuest - Miragul Heroic Progression Server

    I thought what the hell, and created a character on the Miragul server to see how many people were on there. Then I spent the next thirty minutes looking at all of the activate-able AAs, Combat Abilities, and spells I had on the character. I attempted to organize it all in hotbars, but after a...

    EverQuest - If you could design your perfect TLP server

    I would say that I am surprised by the number of people voting for Truebox, but when you consider the high number of people voting for starting in Classic, it makes sense. It's only later in the expansion unlocks when Truebox starts to really suck ass.

    Yeah I deserve that. Fucking stupidest thing I ever did was give Brad my money.

    AssHat of the year 2019

    I would so nominate @Brando, but he's already been nominated like multiple times. So, I wont nominate @Brando, but if I could, I totally would nominate @Brando because he's a fucking idiot. That leaves me with no one else to nominate, so I will just sit here and not nominate @Brando. Just saying.

    EverQuest - If you could design your perfect TLP server

    This is 100% hypothetical, so take it as such. Pretend that you worked at DBG, and you was asked to design your perfect dream version of an EverQuest TLP server. In the poll, pick UP TO 12 choices. Feel free to pick more than one choice for any given rule, but keep in mind that there are...

    Zombieland 2 (2019)

    I really liked Zombieland 2. It was an enjoyable movie. Clearly not the "movie of the year", but what could possibly beat Joker for that title really.

    Persona 5

    This has to be one of my top five favorite console games of all time. Every so often I pull it off the shelf, toss it in the PS4 Pro, and play it again from the beginning. Just amazing game really.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Here's the funny thing. I am in Circulus lol. I really like them to be honest. It's just like everyone has already said, we are at the end of the month, so there's not a ton of activity until the next expansion lands next week. I'm planning to give it a good shot when PoR drops to see how...

    EverQuest - Miragul Heroic Progression Server

    RF was a straight up cluster fuck. I was so happy to see Phinigel come along when it did. Loved that server. Would still be there if SoE hadn't fucked up the Truebox code back during Shadows of Luclin and then fucking lie about it saying it was working as intended. Bastards. What are you...

    Everquest - Would you play on a Selos-FV Hybrid TLP server

    It's purely personal interest. If I wanted to play a server of my personal desires, I would just fire up my EQEMU server. Why would I need DBG to make something for me. I just want to see what the so called majority actually wants.

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

    What we don't realize is that Pantheon has released multiple times since it's initial announcement. In fact, it's about to release again in November when the new EverQuest TLP server is launched. What Pantheon does is get people's passion reignited for some good old school MMORPG fun. It...

    Everquest - Would you play on a Selos-FV Hybrid TLP server

    Nobody has been full on against the idea of another poll, so I am going to create it tomorrow, and I need input on the choices. I am not sure how many choices it will let me put on a poll here, but assuming it will allow enough, What I am thinking is you choose one from each category in the...

    Everquest - Would you play on a Selos-FV Hybrid TLP server

    Would it be savage if the raid drops were "Bind on Equip" rather than tradeable? What if the "bind on equip" version only had a percentage chance to drop instead of a "no drop" version of the same item. I totally get what both of you are saying. It's just that I'm exploring possible ways to...

    Everquest - Would you play on a Selos-FV Hybrid TLP server

    I had not thought about that. It wasn't a thing back before they made the item clickies give you a permanent AA, but I can see where that would be an issue now. I wonder if the answer would be to make everything that is "No Trade" on normal servers be "Bind On Equip" on FV ruleset servers...

    Everquest - Would you play on a Selos-FV Hybrid TLP server

    The interesting thing here is that if you combine the Yes and Maybe votes (because those votes show at least some willingness to try this type of server), you come out to just below 50%. So, this is not a completely bad idea apparently. My assumption is that based on that many people willing...

    Everquest - Would you play on a Selos-FV Hybrid TLP server

    LOL! Yes. This is purely theoretical. That being said, these forums are probably considered more closely to that of a focus group for certain games compared to their own official forums. So, be constructive, and you never know what might happen.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Over the weekend, I understood why my friends had left the Selos server recently. It's sadly fairly dead when it comes to people grouping outside of raids. Don't get me wrong, there are some great people on the server that will go out of their way to help you out, but there's just not many...

    EverQuest - Miragul Heroic Progression Server

    I wasn't going to play on the Miragul server anyway because I have way too much money invested in Selos now, but I might have screwed around on it a little. As it stands now, I have no desire at all to even ever create a character there. Personally, I still think Selos is the best possible...

    EverQuest - Miragul Heroic Progression Server

    Two things of interest... Truebox No mention of Agents of Change I can't imagine a server that starts you at level 85 that doesn't have the option to box on one computer being a good thing. Maybe I'm wrong, but that just seems like a bad idea. I am assuming that since they didn't mention...

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

    I have been a professional programmer for two decades now, and I can tell you that a great deal of programmers I have worked with would not be good on camera. Some of the best programmers are the most awkward introverts you would ever meet. This is why you hire non-programmers as your public...

    It's clearly someone with some vested interest in either the broadcast and/or the game itself because he came out of no where and was ready to kick some keyboard ass. I doubt it was Brad because the speech would have been way more incoherent. I tend to believe it very well was either that...

    Why is it that every time someone disagrees with someone else on the Internet, they always immediately assume the other person is a loser that lives with their parents? I mean really. Can we get past this dumb ass stereotype already? I'd bet my left nut that the vast majority of us who have...

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

    While I completely agree that normalization is a very bad thing in a RPG, I have to say that the Ogre being the only race to have stun immunity in Everquest (originally ... through AAs, any race can get stun immunity now as a tank) was a mistake because you either played an Ogre as a tank, or...

    Where do you get the Wall of Slaughter portal spells? They show to be level 61-64 spells, so they should not be from turning in muramite runes, but I didn't see them for sale in the PoK library either.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    On a side note, I got tired of not having money on my SK, so I loaded up my old 60 wizard on the server to do some farming. Before I knew it, I was in a group in Splitpaw (didn't even realize that it is a high level dungeon at this point until someone told me), and I was level 70 on him in a...

    So, those mobs you kill in Corathus Creep, does that lower your faction with the quest givers, bankers, etc in that zone, or can you kill them and still be fine for everything?
