I got to interview Narlee, a former EQ Dev the other day, mostly a live focused interview that looks behind the curtain a bit.

This has been really really enjoyable. The main human city takes me right back to Qeynos.

Steve Clover is on the team right now.

We almost got the new TLP details yesterday but then some woman came up and wouldn’t stop interjecting about her cat until the tlp people left.

Yeah, I've been doing a lot of that and subcision. This stream was unplanned but was 24 hours after my last session.

In the middle of a 24 hour stream of this rn, plenty of content :)

I think this is a growing issue in the meta on TLPs. Anyone who plans to box realizes they are better off just maining the tank. After a certain number guilds and raids really get minimal benefit from adding tanks to the roster though.

Sadly that’s a small man roster. A real raid could never be so clean because there is always some shitter who wants to main a Rogue or something. People and their “fun” in my mmos.

That Ranger isn’t dps, it’s there to press Auspice.

tl:dr No

No, but why would you need it when all the dps can FD?

This raid comp will out perform 90% of any raid you come across for like the first 3 years of a TLP. Don’t overthink it.

What if it’s just a typo and it was supposed to be June 20th Kunark opens? It would match with May 22 Classic start, 4 weeks of classic just like the Mischief cadence.

Lmao last Anniversary server they skipped the whole trilogy and the server was better for it.

Good point.

Would they launch a server the week of the in person pax panel? Seems like a bad idea.

That would be wild. Anything is possible really.

Maybe the people with $1500 fippy tickets get in two days early.

I don’t think they’ll launch on the 20th. I think they’ll launch on the 22nd. Probably spin the servers up on the 20th and open on Weds.

Teek is the hotzone dude from PoK and they just increased the AA exp cap so this sort of suggests it is a fast exp server.

Teek and Tormax possible Kunark launch.

You could solo them trivially for sure. Just level a bit or make the char heroic.

I like this philosophy a lot.

I mean beta raids are available for like two months every year and you can literally just spam them all day every day during that period. Guilds can come into an expansion having cleared its raids literally 100 times already before day 1 even begins. You can’t expect a challenge in that environment.

I mean even if they all quit who would believe them? "Yeah you're totally not there on a different character" - it would be hard to regain that trust.

It's true, but it's random which servers are up first and up last for this sort of thing so not explicitly corrupt but this is why you shouldn't have staff in top raiding guilds because it looks really bad when the top guild in the world has multiple current or former staff members in it.

I heard the server with the Dev guild had their live raids unlock 3-4 minutes early today and won the expansion clear by 1 minute. The gift that keeps on giving.

You will play. You will quit before Quarm dies. You will have 20% RA or less lifetime. You will still have fun. It’s foretold in the old scrolls.

Na this guild is all just Faceless. We had a bit over 100 core guys, to include our whole leadership team in here that we trusted before we opened it up to new people. Most of these guys have been in multiple Faceless guilds over like the last 5-10 years.

By the way, it’s time to slay the dragon. https://discord.gg/Faceless25th

If they do that they need to do a second Mischief server on the side imo. Mischief 2.0 will be bigger than the original, you can’t cram it all into one classic box.

Imagine they finally launch a PvP TLP but they do it alongside Mischief 2.0 lmaooo. Poor red players, can never catch a break.

I legitimately keep hearing rumors of a PvP server, and I had a reliable source that told us last year we almost got a PvP server but instead they went with Oakwynd so it seems plausible.

Man tickets to Fippy Fest are $1500 for a 1.5 day event.

@Secrets

I don’t think people are prepared for what a Free Trade server looks like with the current state of MQ and fixed FTE. Raid mob spawns, and one person can just tag and leash it from the zone line with far taunt and then the mob is locked for 10-15 minutes? Griefing potential is off the charts...

If they're doing Mischief and something else they better have 3-4 servers ready because Mischief 2.0 will be bigger than Mischief 1.0 and this shit still has like 25 guilds on it 3 years later. Mischief+Selo combo is such a good idea and guaranteed homerun server that I struggle to believe it...
