Almost done with NG+ / the platinum, finally. Only trophy left is the Frenzied Flame ending. Just went through the sewers (worst part of the game by far) and defeated Mogh / got branded. Now my character's once-nice back has been ruined and she looks terrible in the Deathbed Dress, so I'm ready...

TBH I can't remember. I probably took the short route if at all possible though. I'd say 70% chance it's NG+2. Just gotta figure out if I'd have a better time running that with a beefed up character, or running NG from scratch.

This feels like a personal attack! 1. I care if the server is successful because once the population dwindles, the play experience also declines. Phinny has been running on fumes for about two years now (it was down to one guild as of early 2021) and the only reason I still play on it is out of...

Same here. I actually rolled an Iksar SK on EQ2 the same week I rolled an Iksar SK on Vaniki. Got to level 8 or so I think. It took like an hour in EQ2, was shocked at how fast the levels were going. I'll get back to it later. EQ1 is the game I've played the most and yet I never gave EQ2 the...

So calling out the raid leader in /rs takes less time/energy than "striking up a tell convo"? Plane of Fear/Hate might be group-farmable. Hate definitely is, Fear if it was recently broken. Though TBH, past LDONs / Natimbi / quests there isn't a lot to do. At 55 we're all gonna be getting...

Anyone know offhand if there's a way to see which NG cycle your game is on? Cause I'm going to replay this soon and my file is at the beginning of a game which is perfect, but I don't know which cycle it is. I know I got the platinum right before I stopped playing, if that helps figure this out.

Dude, I normally like your posts a lot in politics etc and think you have a lot of good things to say. However in this thread I seriously don't know what you're on about and now I'm skipping your posts. Whatever's going on, just stop worrying about it and give this thread a rest. I think you're...

To be faaaaair Arguing with a raid leader in open channels mid-raid can be annoying AF for a raid leader. I've only raid-led on live (during SoD era) and people doing that caused a lot of confusion even if they had the right idea. Sending me a tell was much easier because if I missed something...

Like I said yesterday, it's too bad that it isn't doing well because I'm putting forth a lot of oomph on there. I might want to hold off on investing more energy into it until we see how it's doing in a month.

Yeah, pre-70 mercs would be way too OP and completely trivialize the server. Nobody would group. You're way too good-hearted for this place. Never change

Enchanters/charm rule the day right up through GoD. Post-GoD they decline a lot in power. So you see a ton of chanters early, then the number drops off sharply between the decline and also all the new chanters realizing how high-maintenance and "difficult" the class actually is. Yeah they can...

NG+ is there to mess around with new builds, IMO. Try that faith build you aborted, and if it doesn't work, switch back. I'm trying all kinds of weapons I ignored the first time through. Don't burn yourself out though, and it sounds like you might just be done with it for now. My only beef with...

Yeah, my PS5 NG+ run is also boring AF and I keep wanting to get back to the PS4 Samurai run instead just to have things be a challenge again / feel like there's a reason to explore. All I have left are like two trophies and I'll get those pretty soon and finish off NG+. Then it's onward to...

I don't have a lion horse either. Been wondering how everybody got one, but not enough to find out. I suspect it's from one of those expansion classic editions and they saved it in /claim.

Yo, I'm white and I don't got SHIT!

Oh no. We saw what happened last time he did this. Ya know, I'm actually enjoying this duo now. Them furiously making out in the background while Kazarian cut an angry promo to the camera was fucking hilarious. Tay looked incredible at the PPV. I just wish they'd straighten out WTF their...

I just like that my odyssey of trying to get myself an FBSS as of late (a 6 hour camp with nothing, then a 4 hour camp this morning) ended with what was essentially a boss fight with some guy.

Some spicy early-morning drama on Vaniki: Was camping the Frenzy for like 4 hours this morning... solo. Finally, after all that time and pain, I got a Frenzy spawn...and it was two of them. Died, ran back. Was sitting there medding and figuring out how to deal with two Frenzys solo when this...

It feels really good to see "World Champion: CM Punk"

Dunno, I'm getting focus items done and having fun doing it. Not gonna farm LDONs and burn myself out, I'm fine just getting the 44 focus quest items and whatever I could use from Natimbi. I do wish they'd do a 45 raise two weeks in, that would have broken things up nicely, but oh well.

Yeah that doesn't have any effect on challenge 3 so all is well. I owe @Seananigans 50 and @Utnayan owes me and @Regime 50. What'd probably be simpler is to just give my prize to Seananigans. I wasn't in this to make anything anyway, it was more about defending / not having to spend. Lul...

Here we go @Utnayan Note: I went off of the exact version of the game people played when I did HLTB totals. For example, the original Kingdoms of Amalur is listed at 31 hours and the remake, despite being the same thing, is listed at 20 hours (likely because modern people are spending less...

This is on my list too. I wonder if Icewind Dale II is gonna get the enhanced edition treatment at some point like Baldur and all these other CRPGs. One of these years I'm gonna take a few months and just go down the CRPG rabbit hole. So many great ones that I missed because I was primarily a...

That'd be more like the Special Olympics: Everyone's a winner.

Cole was trained by Shawn Michaels (and is his most successful trainee by far). He also has movie-star looks, for a wrestler. That's why he's seen as a top guy by companies. He pulls female viewers, is responsible in RL (has no vices), and can go. Also Cole and I are the exact same height and a...

Most of the MJF stuff was a work. He's doing the whole Pillman thing, plus CM Punk in his heyday, with a splash of Roddy Piper. I don't know his contract status but I wouldn't be surprised if he got the money he wanted a while ago. They've got literally everybody believing all of this is real...

I think turning FTR heel would be a mistake. They're over like gangbusters. Was in the arena last time they wrestled and you'd think Stone Cold was wrestling. The story now is gonna be FTR working towards the tag titles. However the Hardys are also in contention now and might get a token win...

Oh, that makes sense. I didn't look at the actual charge, bet it's like 10% of the normal amount. I just have to remember to re-up it after the krono kicks in.

I definitely recommend the no level loss perk, it's more than worth the $3 to be able to just mess around without worry. One thing to be wary of with perks though: I went and got full perks towards the end of my subbed month (using kronos) and I only got 3 days of perks (for the full price...

Oh yeah, I like that idea, I'd be 100% in for that kind of server. The only question would be when the top guild gets any sleep. I'm thinking the first real gearing roadblock will be Tacvi. You'll have people living in Qvic for a bit and raiding Time on lockout. Could see our high end raiders...

I dunno about all that, I'm just thinking of "fun event server" ideas. Gaining one level every day (or more accurately, gaining 0.01%, then capping the following level) would be a fun endeavor that I could keep up with. Having the exp rates at 2000 levels would mean it'd take all day to get...

How about a four-month event server where the level cap starts at 1 and goes up by 1 every day. That'd be an interesting experiment, just to see what people do and how they handle the whole thing. I'd like to see them try this next year as one of the two TLPs. Four months in, the cap is 120...

Was thinking that, then went with SRO because I never see SGs up in NRO. But now that I think about it, SGs are probably a lot more available on here than usual. Another cool thing about the undead ruins is that nothing runs away, so an SG can just plop right down there. I might have to try...

-Get level 11 -Charm Sand Giant -Sic it on rapid-respawning orcs around northeast oasis -Ding 20 in an hour This server is so bizarre

ANNNNND TIME. Gonna add up everyone's points and post the winners this week.

The ones I linked above? Which ones are the worst? I'm gonna try to do all of them, with the worst last. Coulda probably wiped out some of them yesterday instead of trying to get a haste belt for six hours, man I'm so bitter about that It blows my mind that they aren't doing a level 45 raise...

Alternatively, instead of doing the mask quest above for Spell Haste II, healers can do these two: Fine Antique Corset Fine Antique Veil Which get you an Improved Healing II mask and a Spell Haste II belt. Non-healers can just do the Fine Cut mask from the previous post to get Spell Haste II...

Some quests worth doing for what may or may not be BIS all/all non-visible items: Fine Cut, Diamond-Inlaid Mask Fine Antique Ring Lucky Miner's Gorget and Sooty Miner's Cloak Glowing Magma Ring and Intricate Tool Belt Fine Antique Velvet Rose

Yeah, charm-kill (or pet-kite) anything in Natimbi with "rare creature" in its bio. Lots of 40 HEM gear there which is beyond most available stuff. Most of it seems to be for casters, though, and once you collect 'em all there isn't much else to do there. LDONs are the most useful they've ever...

Yeah GW2 is another one I missed and it'd definitely be on our big MMO list but it's already got too many things on it. We had Tera and Aion on there too and dropped those. I don't know what BR is going after next, but I will say that the group-gearing strategy on Vaniki at 40 = LDONs and...
