Same thing happens to me in theaters. At some point midway through the movie I'll think about reaching for the remote to pause it and see how much is left, just for a second, before remembering where I am.

Good point. Unrelated, @Amod Can we change this thread title to "EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)" since there's a specific Yelinak thread now, for neatness

A raid where you get the boss to 50% is "a solid attempt, we've got this, let's push through and get the win" Not "welp guess we're done" Guarantee most of the people there would have been willing to stay late and get a win, but players won't rise to meet challenges if they aren't given the...

Jesus, Evil Anna is so hot. ...speaking of hot, what's that new avatar gif from?

Yeah, it probably isn't. Anyone who has done the level 80 era knows how insanely steep that fight's damage output is even at 80 and geared-up. Guy on the EQ board replied to my post that I want to make Vaniki "easy". No, not easy, just actually doable

Yeah I can't really do ENC any more even though it's my preferred class in a lot of ways. Not being able to afk at all for hours on end is kind of awful at this point. As for wife aggro, the best way to avoid that...is to not have a wife. *taphead.jpg* ...I need a wife

I posted all that on the board with some added rationalizations. Maybe it'll get some dev attention: https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/proposed-vaniki-changes.284381/

That sounds great, some real competition over that one. Bad news, it's a single-claim. I claimed it on my SK and now have an Emp Ssra pet, but I immediately felt dirty because someday I'll have an actual pet class and wish I hadn't claimed this. Ya there are a lot of holes in this concept...

I included both in my answer. Best "pump you up" song has to be Thunderstruck. Jesus Christ, that song would wake me up from a coma.

I was also a WCW guy. Was sad when it got assimilated. WWF was super solid in that timeframe though, so it didn't quite feel like the end of the world and I figured we'd get a relaunch. Instead WWF just stopped giving a shit. They had a good 2002 coasting off of their momentum, much like WCW's...

I agree with @Animosity on this, I'd vastly prefer kill-unlocks. It'd put more priority on server firsts (as everyone wants to be the one to unlock the next tier) and stir up more competition, and it'd give us more time to chill and gear up. Right now it's like a constant race against the...

95: Innoruuk is a tier-zero Broken Mirror raid, won't be much of an issue. Defense of the City is the first raid in TBM, and even though Arx isn't a pushover I think it's doable. Lastly Doorstep of War is the first raid of EoK and while it's tougher than the other two, it's a farm-status raid at...

Some thoughts on the cheevos: 40: Definitely the easiest set, as it turns out. Cazic was the only semi-tough one. Good choices, but might as well have thrown Inny in there too. 50: Nothing too serious here, Gorenaire and Yelinak are the main challenges. Seemed doable for a bunch of guilds...

Finally watched it yesterday. Actually liked a lot of this movie. Kano was cool but of course he was the racist comic relief buffoon who got beat up a lot. Kung Lao was awesome and should have lasted. Overall it was an alright time. As for the RL stuff around it... It's hilarious to me that the...

Raiden's move? It's AYO BOBBO LAYYYY. IIRC Shinnok is a bad guy in MK4, then MK5 has Quan Chi and Shang Tsung teaming up? IDK, I stopped paying attention after MK3 and Shao Khan's fall. If they release any kind of game compilation (which are all the rage now) I'd like to play everything...

Yeah, Tier 2 of Planes of Power (out of 5) so fairly early in the expansion.

These feelings aren't mutually exclusive though. Looking something up in a guide is a choice, having quest markers giving everything away is taking a choice away and fundamentally changing the game. Similar to being in support of people doing something versus wanting the government to make...

As far as modern songs go, Kashmir for sheer music power. Enter Sandman for having image-evoking vocal power. There's a Between The Buried And Me song that stands out to be as completely incredible, but I don't remember the name of it whatsoever. Used to listen to it a lot too.

I don't know but I don't think BR is actually gonna roll up on Yelinak. Buy some food!

Live A Live was a great Super Famicom game back in the day. It's a lot like the Romancing Saga series, just simplified a bit, and more "out there" (one of the character scenarios is a caveman, one is a robot on a spacecraft). I love Saga games. Haven't played Romancing Saga 2 (now remastered)...

Here ya go. I'm not up close and personal with the boss, but I tried to keep it in the frame. I'm also a little rusty with kiting, this was my second time kiting during a boss on this server (first was Agnarr and his minis, a bit of a trial by fire). Speaking of which, on the Agnarr fight I was...

I recorded an Aerin Dar raid, I'll put it on Youtube. Always really liked Aerin Dar because it's like getting to fight the Sleeper. It is kinda weird that the devs just threw that model away on a low-level PoP raid mob. By PoP the devs had largely changed over away from Brad/Verant if I'm not...

Just did the research on Raidloot. Looks like OOW/DODH have dick for AAs in the 50's, at least for SKs. Basically one spell slot and two buff slots, that's it. GoD has Weapon Affinity and Persistent Casting that won't be autogranted and are available in the 50's, so definitely go for those...

Yeah, the AA situation is a problem. At next unlock we're getting SoL and possibly PoP autogranted, but we won't have the levels to actually get any of the PoP AAs. There are only a few AAs available in the 50's from PoP/GoD/OoW/DoDH, so in reality we're gonna have very little to get. The SoL...

I think Anguish bosses will be killable at 60 once people are geared up more. At least, everything up to OMM. However, I might be crazy. That's a ways off though. As far as closer to 60 launch, with less gear... PoTime, definitely. Qvic, maybe some of Tacvi. Looks like the big boss at 55 is...

Mith Marr at minus ten levels was the hardest/best fight I've had on TLP in a while

I definitely woulda passed it to a cleric if I knew any of this beforehand Only Bind Rush to my knowledge, but I heard another guild killed AOW today (don't know which) Hey, times are tough, half of us are still dressed like we're homeless and using PoK quest gear. I had a 30 HEM bracer...

Nope. Won it in BoT right as a raid was called, and had to very quickly forge it and get to the raid. I'm not well-versed on PoP or its equipment since I only really cleared PoP once, in 2005. Most of my EQing is either Classic-Luclin or post-GoD. I thought pre-elemental PoP gear was much...

Is this a joke? Ornate molds cost like 2/3rds of a krono at minimum and the stats aren't any better than what you get from Natimbi or Lavastorm quests. I'm pissed that I didn't just sell the mold 'cause this isn't even an upgrade.

About as good as it gets with MOTM Should I get Combat Fury or Weapon Affinity next? Got pretty much all the other important AAs. SK, mostly seem to DPS rather than tank, have a strong proc weapon (250+75 damage). WA also won't be autogranted in a couple weeks while CF will. On the other hand...

This looks like something I'd be interested in: https://www.tuneandfairweather.com/products/you-died-deluxe-hardcover-standard-black-edition Edit: Link doesn't seem to be working right now, it's the "You Died" book from the same publisher. Price is a little steep (probably over a hundred when...

Kei now exists on Vaniki at 55, we did it

1) Yeah, a lot of people missed the early challenges and we already determined that it'd be easy to de-level and do them again later (given that equipment has no level req, in theory we could go back and group 50 cheevos with like, COA-geared 60's) 2) For now, but better to not miss any further...

Yeah, once I started using parry, Gwyn went from being the hardest boss in NG / NG+ to being one of the easiest in NG++. Four Kings, however, was WAY harder in NG++ than the other two. I died more to Four Kings than the rest of the bosses combined.

Yeah, multiplayer trophies are ass, just ask Jirard The Completionist. He always has problems with those when revisiting old games. They can lock you out of plats and it's bullshit. If DeS is this bad, imagine how bad ten year old games are. I'm glad I got the plat done in week 1. Bioshock 2...

Delete this thread IMO... Also delete this server IMO

Attitude Era 2.0 to combat AEW? It'll be a pale imitation of the first one. This'll be interesting though because AEW, itself, is already doing an Attitude Era + UFC theme (or trying to). Network execs are way more willing to let AEW get down and dirty than the previous generation was with...

The current discussion in this thread is gay. SO gay.

I picked this up for $30 recently in PS4 box-set form. Was pretty excited for it because the initial ME trilogy is one of like, five or so games/serieses that I still have a ton of nostalgia and warm fuzzy feelings about. Then I quickly realized that another of those things was the Bioshock...
