DON'T DO IT (refer to the clown makeup meme above) TBH you couldn't pay me to box, outside of Phinny which has full windowed tab boxing enabled so I can do it all from one screen.

My next static will be called <Cuck-Thusiasts>

It's actually "No Guks Given"...not sure if it's related to that "What The Guk" guild on whichever server that was.

I'd say go with whatever he finds the most fun/appealing. Shadowknight might work out really well. It's basic enough to start while also having lots of nuances to learn if he gets into it. That or monk, depending on if you want to be the tank yourself. Monk gets super fun. SK/Monk/Shaman is...

Was nazi technology realistically capable of anything like that? They had a lot of grandiose ideas, but most of them didn't get off the drawing board. The ones that did, submarines, ballistic missiles, uber-tanks, whatever else, tended to be pretty industry-leading. But anti-grav tech, in the...

Anyone find it at all curious that most of these hundreds of sightings began the year after the US started setting off nukes? And that the most reported activity, by far, was during the 50's/early 60's portion of the Cold War, when the US and Russia were both setting off absolutely massive...

Some skeptic guy who gets mentioned a lot for some reason. Every time any solid UFO stuff gets posted on Twitter, half the comments are like "take THAT Mick West!" Like, who gives a fuck about some guy?

This. Losing North Freeport (and really, losing OG Freeport in general) was one of the worst changes the devs ever made. To a much lesser extent, they also did a terrible remake of Nektulos. At least they ended up revising that one with a re-remake with a layout more like the original. However...

Got back to this, switched an elemental gem to the Ludwig's sword and it moved all the damage to Arcane, very nice.

I'm the Danny Ainge of EQ.

I'm gonna cast another vote for "fuck with the nastiest bitch in any zone". When I was a chanter on Aradune I liked to live on the edge, man. If you aren't going all-out with a pet that could kill you, what are you even doing? As long as it takes it more than 5 seconds to kill you, that's more...

We need some insight in here on these chanter issues. Who is the Michael Jordan of enchanters?

Yeah, the Chalice Dungeon system is definitely a trove of unused assets. All of the unused models and bosses from the regular game probably ended up there. Enemy hunters, who seem way tougher than other enemies (maybe they scale with you, IDK) and a few key bosses were saved for the DLC.

THIS...is TLP intensity!

Done shopping, got all of this with 2kr...not bad .........

I also did the Chalice dungeons only for the purposes of getting to the Queen. They seem like their own game, really. Like you could just spend all your time doing those if you wanted to. Huh. Imagine if the entire game WAS Chalice Dungeons. No regular zones, just a zillion procedurally...

Yeah, I sold two krono ingame as a price experiment and it like fully funded my necro and a friend's wizard getting HP jewelry and decent main/offhand/robes and a few thousand rat ears. I still have plenty of plat left over for monking. I farmed like crazy in week one and made dozens and dozens...

There was a split, now it's Faceless Hollywood and Faceless Wolfpac. Don't turn your back on teh wolfpac

That sounds good. I have a soft spot for TStaff doe. Back in 2004 when I returned to EQ after a 3 year break, I had to start from scratch with no guild and no one I knew still playing. I got to level 50ish and then managed to buy a TStaff by selling everything I'd found (TStaff proc is 50 I...

What monk gear is worth twinking up with on here? Necro isn't really lighting my fire the way it did 20 years ago. Too bad I didn't realize this during that huge bonus we had. TStaff, Fungi Tunic, epic pieces at some point, +HP jewelry, bunch of Rat Ears...anything else worth buying in particular?

Speaking of breaking the game... I hope the remaster gets rid of the Cum Chalice. Just did that a few times to fill up on Blood Vials/Quicksilver Bullets and realized that it completely shatters the game if you do it more than a few times.

Yeah I'm just doing a one-and-done. I've got like +18% Bolt and +8% Fire IIRC which is one of the reasons why I lean Bolt. Just don't have a comparable Fire gem. I'm going to beat the game but I'm not sure what else. Ebrietas, some of the DLC. Probably don't need to be fully-maximized or farm...

I could part with some kronos. 10 dolla, soldier boy! 10 dolla! I maintain that a TSS start would be tremendous for content and QOL. Disable autogrant AAs until some later point (Underfoot would be fine, as that's where TSS would unlock) so that all of the pre-TSS AAs are on the table. So...

I missed the Gloves and Augur (been going without a walkthrough), need to go back and get them. I've got ARC at 50 now. Rosemarinus was mainly just something I wanted to switch up my Flamesprayer use. If nothing else those weapons are super fun to mess around with in the early-mid game. The...

I'm not sure which guild I should be in myself, there are people I like in both and GDKP is fun. Faceless Hollywood or Faceless Wolfpac?

I'm finding Rosemarinus useful not just because it does more damage with high arcane (and I don't need to mess with oil urns), but also because I can actually see what the mobs are doing through the cloud. Before, I took a lot of hits because Flamethrower obscured the enemies a bit. Lost Blades...

Maria's outfit is a great idea, I didn't think of that one. That and Rosemarinus are my new goals. Let's gooooo

It's surprising that Batista hasn't made it into Fast and Furious yet. And that Rock and Cena haven't been in the same movie. But yeah, I'm pretty tired of seeing Batista in everything. He's a mediocre actor and his politics suck (which is probably why he's getting so many big roles).

Yeah, Paarl wasn't easy. I mainly used the flamethrower on his mid-section and got a few staggers out of it. Got a goofy question: Is there any armor/appearance in this game that actually looks sexy on a female character? Inclined to say no. White Church Trousers (with nothing else on) looks...

You're right, it slipped my mind that we had guests when we did Mearatas right before the end of TBL. It's too bad the kill has any asterisk on it though, because as I remember it, 90+% of the people present were OGC. I think we had 5 people from Rosengard and 2 from Resolute there.

As far as the joint raids go... OGC has been raiding as a guild throughout. The joint raids have, with all due respect to Resolute, been overstated. OGC beat TBL and TOV in-era by themselves, with joint raiding happening later in the TOV cycle. (Edit: My bad, the last fight in TBL had guests)...

I agree with this somewhat. No disrespect to Selo folks, but Phinny had to last a lot longer to reach live. OGC has also beaten every expansion in-era, so it isn't simply a matter of waiting out the clock. Grand Slam achievement in Underfoot, Unfettered Emerald Excellence downed in-era. Had more...

To be fair, his wife is a Latina. If he'd said no to her he would have had to go anyway when his ambulance arrived.

I remember Asheron's Call. I never played it, but it was my backup plan when I was considering quitting EQ early-on. Most of the things I disliked about EQ circa 2000 were things that AC didn't have. So for a while there I was spending some time reading up on AC in preparation for switching...

Just got the Blades of Mercy alternate with Arcane scaling on it from a chalice dungeon. That's my favorite weapon in the game (I've never used the Whirligig or the DLC weaps though) and it's great to have it back. Had to get it to +6 to equip the Fire gem I had, but it's done. Would rather have...

Yeah, there was definitely a split attitude in Faceless Conquest. Some of leadership wanted to go at it with Amtrak, some of leadership didn't. A lot of the members, maybe even most of them, wanted to compete. I did, I think you did, etc. So we ended up in this weird fugue-state where the...

At least this time they can avoid making the mistake (IMO) of having the first movie end in a way that makes any kind of sequel tremendously inconvenient. A one-off Highlander remake? Bleh. A remake that sets up 1-2 sequels that tell a coherent story? That could be pretty good, actually...

Forget about Faceless and FXIV, I want to hear more drama about the Golden Rapists.

I wish I could brag about how great I am at EQ. I'm only varying degrees of mediocre, depending on how bad my ADHD is
