    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Which we then assume is tied to these issues hogging finite customer service resources. It just doesn't seem like enough from our end to justify a change this large and then exchanging all the old issues for brand new ones and doing that all right now on a TLP launch that is so far just one...

    That shit never works for me. I've yet to ever have any gem come out 21/20 Vaal and I've put forth effort on more than one league to do it myself rather than buy one.

    I wouldn't worry about it. If you remember Future Janeway fucked them all up so badly with her virus the collective the queen was still attached to was a tiny fraction.

    There's typically a spot right after you get the airship that can fly over lava where I get shat on in the Sylph and Summoner caves. The sealed cave is kind of a mess in general given the instant kill shit but it's got big exp in it at least. I totally got stuck on the boss as a kid. I just...

    I've played the harder version of FF4 that the Japanese got and what it felt like was everything had a 50% counterattack rate.

    The Boogeyman (2023)

    I went and revisited the short story and it's pretty good. There are quite a few from this era that would blossom in to full novels and Night Shift in general is a lot of fun. There's so much of what would become IT in The Boogeyman it's almost distracting but that's no fault of the story...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    You haven't lived until you took a fucking raid of forty people to push a crew out of Efreeti only to get pushed out yourself by a 72 boxer. Those servers really were a fucking mess.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    The playerbase has had a sketchy relationship with competition since the very beginning. We had Play Nice Policies in original vanilla. Every person here probably has a story about the time a GM showed up and decided who got a raid target with a /random or a /duel or some other contrived...

    I still can't believe that players spend six months at 65 this many TLP cycles in.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    At this point I think we're mostly getting what we've been told we're getting with maybe a little sprinkle of sugar left to be announced. The FTE mechanics are going to be enabled on Test ahead of time so we'll at least get a look before launch but this is it. We're getting one server and it's...

    "Guys, you need to make alts so we can do more raids and gear up our tanks" - Warrior Guildleader If the exp bonus for each max level character was bigger and general server exp faster you might be able to hook people but regular TLP exp rates and a 10% stacking bonus per character won't get...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    There were TLPs in the past that had guilds that would have wanted members to have alts for split raid gear funneling but I don't think EQ has the energy left for anyone to try and mandate it. I'd expect to see some effort to make extra runs at Vyzh'dra the Cursed for Bloodfrenzy and for some...

    It's more loot and it doesn't require alts. On fifteen minute raids like Nagafen or Venril Sathir that's a ton more loot over the course of a week to get the open world targets. who.gif

    Mabbu tapped out. Unless there are major changes or a parallel server with a different ruleset he's not leading the guild and is skipping the server entirely. I don't know how willing his crew are to go forward without him. If they all bounce I'm not sure the server is even going to have a...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    The more efficient your existing PL strategy the more annoying it's going to be to have to click /yell on every single fucking thing but it's something. What they need to do is add a way for a player to opt out of the system entirely. Hey, just never lock my shit and never lock my group's shit.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I'm curious how many of those improvements are things that were going in but just weren't part of the initial news but whatever. Raid lockouts by character instead of account plus the ability to move no-drop gear around character to character on the same account should result in a server that...

    The very next episode after Janeway kills Tuvix as he begs for someone to save him is Resolutions.

    Even if a premade goes tits up at char select on launch day it's still easier to put in big effort on launch weekend. EQ would be a baller game to stream if you could show everyone the good shit without getting banned.

    On one of these a Monk guildmate had a Wizard box he left online 24/7 bound at the Monk origin point whose sole purpose was to be there to port him places. It's such a quality of life improvement I'm surprised it isn't more common.

    A low tier class like a rogue isn't typically detrimental to the success of a premade as you're probably all in the backpack of the Enchanter and Cleric anyway.
