    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    LoY also included a lot of nice upgrade features that are now packaged into eq. It meant a lot more at the time because of all the QOL stuff. Now? I think it should release with level 60 stuff to have a chance of relevance.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    My guess is they "compromise" and do more of that scaled unlock where like its 3mo if a level increase but stays 1mo if not, something like that. What they should do is just show a metric (we all know exists) where server pops dip as expansions progress and tell all the people yammering to go...

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    The issue is hacking. You can't see someone first when they have maps and scripted alerts for other players. You can't see them first if they go from zone in to instantly on top of you using harmtouch, and even IF you somehow survive this they can warp out just as quickly. Discord had this and...

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Amtrak and faceless are going to be the hardcore guilds that race and try for firsts and have way more loot than anyone. Who is better or will win is a debated matter for now. If you liked faceless before you should probably have a good time here too.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Beastlord gets a nice distinction of being always good at soloing, stacks pretty well in raids, and is usually ok in groups. Shaman similar boat, imo a slightly better group but less raid-stacking deal here. Not sure how lazy you want though. These are the "always good at all 3 aspects in all...

    You actually understand the problem I think. He is bringing up stupid shit from so far in the past that TS was very normal back then.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    My understanding is they are basically "turned on" and then disable after x time. The problem is if they are on or off. My guess is with droga force-reverted the pre nerf cos should be in (post nerf in fm still). The rest are who knows. They may even say they are in and screw that up.

    Don't be that guy! A certain TL ranger is the biggest reason I joined the guild too. Your class sucks but theres some hope... Make yourself the tank, puller, or both.

    I don't clear out saved screenshots. So anything I took on my current pc is there. If I get a new one and move all my personal files over, I will still have them. Nothing strange about it.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Assuming you go iksar and either group with locals or make your perma come to you, you can basically get to 50s wothout going more than 2 zones. Kurns, kaesora, com. I did hear seb and kc are nerfed though so you may need to hustle to luclin by 50s but lots of options there. This would be my...

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    So basically the better the xp rate, the better it is to just grind away. The slower it is, the more it makes sense to look for high zem or stuff like weapons/focuses to speed it up. Since I expect this server will let you score a couple levels per hour, it makes no sense to spend a half hour...

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    Probably, but for Selo my guess is only the unlock timer gets ruined and probably not longer than 2 months if they do fuck it up. Mangler who know. I assume it changes but god knows to what; the initial idea is so shit and the team likes to take their ideas as personal and hate backing down so...

    Zaide and many others in faceless will rock our for the initial rush and then relax until the next month, and he will give lots of praise to the players and officers and take less credit than deserved. Grisvok responded to past loot thefts and accusations of impropriety by adding visibility to...

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    It causes the mob to have increased damage, mitigation, and hps as well as a massive scaling reduction to stacked summon pet dps and a change to threat mechanics regarding said pets. Aka mobs are tougher, wizards use rains, mages can fuck right off.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Paludal mobs were high dps low hps and the zone at least used to be among the highest zem. This made it the best. The downside is that the bulk of the zone will stop being good xp by your high teens and has no real loot, while the bandits that take you into the 20s are crowded with just 2...

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Optimal level path will not be the same and the classic route will actually be very bad after level 30. The faster the xp is, the more optimal it is to just kill stuff and not slow for upgrades or shopping. Just dropping in a limitless-kill outdoor spot with low travel or contention can beat...

    I loved eq pvp way back when, but modern eq is too hacked for it to work. Very sorry to say so. If somehow they managed to get it in check I'd be right there with you.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    They have this awful idea that slow xp and long unlocks is good. Some fucktard probably argued that people quit after x and so this makes it as long as possible to get there. Reality is people come back too and a rehash of a rehash of phinny but with awful xp is destroying that motivation. Then...

    1 month is NOT too fast. This is what combine and sleeper had, without hyper xp or extra rares or any instances, and it was fine. Eq was balanced around a fuckton less loot than aocs allowed and until them only one or maybe a couple guilds even touching top items. Everything will be fine...

    A no aoc server needs something else to compensate. A mass respawn happy hour where they force-respawn ALL motm mobs at x times each week so guilds can prep and rush but not poopsock more than 1? Sounds fantastic and never gonna happen too much work. Putting in anti-camp mechanics like punting...

    False. Their truebox server was an overwhelming success. The ones immediately before it had the worst tlp boxing and were constantly joked about as dead servers.

    I figure it comes down to three options: 1. They aren't releasing the launch date because they are too stupid to realize how beneficial it would be. 2. They agreed to let someone make the announcement and this person is dumb and/or lazy. 3. They aren't releasing it because they are trying to...

    Not sure why people think fv = casual. After many mudflating expansions and years of market saturation sure, you can just buy past bottlenecks. In a tlp environment? No fucking way. Ni hao bitches.
