    Everquest - Phinigel server

    Yep, Daybreak didn't even bother consider how many players on Phinny would be refugees from Ragefire and Lockjaw and that those players would be looking at not only redoing the level grind but do it even slower.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    You know, we've got this goose here that we think will lay golden eggs. That could take a lot of time and energy. What if we just cut it open and took all the eggs now? That's what Phinny is like with the sow pots, regen pots, haste pots, and decreased exp rate. Rather than just making some...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    Telling people the day after the server launches (not even same day, mind you) that exp on Phinny would be less than it was on Ragefire and Lockjaw when it wasn't super quick on those servers is retarded. People really wanted to play on a server with box restrictions and instancing. There are...

    On the upside we've had to ban Necro pets from raids now. Wait? Did I say upside? I mean spirit crushing kick in the sack. Shadow Knight is the class of the future.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    The real big issue is that you can no longer enter melee range to tank for your pet. With that no longer working pets are going to die a lot more until people get better at aggro manageament.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    Paladins are fine in Classic. They are good and groups and you can use them to tank anything on raids. In Kunark they are good in groups and do absolutely nothing on raids. Maybe you use Lay on Hands at a good time. That's it.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    I think that got changed at some point but I'm not 100%. I know I made an Erudite something and it didn't punish me for having 70 agility and I definitely remember always having to jack my Agility to 75 because otherwise you had 1 AC at level 1 and got wrecked by snakes.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    In Classic if you pick Troll or you pick Ogre that's fine. There's really no wrong answer. Just make sure you ignore the recommended stat distribution (all points into Stamina) and max your Intelligence if you go one of the large races. In Kunark when SKs transition into being Wizards in...

    That shit always drove me nuts. "Hey, can I get Strength Dex Stam Agility AC Talisman Haste Regen please? Oh, and do you have Avatar yet?" If you've ever forced a group to stop killing because you wanted irrelevant buffs I hope you get eaten by weasels. I'm looking atyou,Ranger players...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    Troll and Iksar regen scales with level. The best part about being an Iksar SK though is that you get Origin : Cabilis during Kunark. With it and a Worker Sledge Mallet you can actually get around that expansion decently on your own as a melee character.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    They parsed like dog poop through all of Classic and are solidly behind SKs and Monks in Kunark. Depending on the encounter it's either always Monks at the top followed by SKs or SKs at the top followed by Monks while all the Rogues, Wizards, and Necromancers fight for positioning below them. If...

    Phinny has full raid instancing. Every person on the server that wants to can try their hand at a Lady Vox, a Lord Nagafen, Innoruuk + all Hate minis, Cazic-Thule + all Fear minis, Master Yael, and the Plane of Skyandthey can do that every weekandthey can do it without any interferenceandat any...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    Having been in Kunark a while now I wouldn't recommend anyone play a Rogue, a Ranger, or a Paladin. The rest of the cast is fine. Even at level 60 with raid gear and an epic Rogues don't parse all that great, Rangers parse worse, and while Paladins are useful as tanks in Classic they have...

    It probably means that cleared isles (isles on lockout) don't respawn or at least their little bosses won't respawn.

    If you're planning on joining his crew make sure you aren't playing a class with an epic that takes tradeable raid drops. You'll get to Kunark and find out all the shit you've been banking for months is gone.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    I would think the goal would be to have a series of servers that represent a wide variety of eras so at any given time there's a TLP for everyone. There's a fresh TLP opening up, there's another TLP that's in Velious right now, and there's a third TLP in Planes of Power, that kind of thing...

    Mage pets do less damage and take more damage the more of them you use on raid targets. You can still pet wall down anything but it's more of a pain. Monk fists don't have the ratio people thought they had but they are still great and all melee characters received bonus damage in a patch a...

    I don't know what everyone else's experience is but for me the time I spent playing online made me much better at things like triggers and priority with paper magic. Online literally forces you to address every single trigger and every single phase of a turn every single time. It trains you.

    On one hand the later Next Generation films and Star Trek Enterprise were miserable abominations that tanked the franchise and Star Trek Open Bracket 2009 Close Bracket was a refreshing and fun sci-fi adventure.

    I thought the video explaining the changes to Warsong was fine and he was on target except for all the times he called the changes to Warsong Commander "nerfs." You didn't nerf the card. You deleted it and made a new card. It shouldn't even have the same name. Oh, and when he said "this card...

    Magic moved away from crushingly powerful hate cards years and years ago and for good reason. Cards like Gloom, Chill, Perish, Light of Day, and Circle of Protection were brutal. Sideoboards in Hearthstone would be just as bad or worse given the power of the game's situational cards. Being able...
