    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    The idea of playing dress up with a charm pet and riding that line to real gear loss on a fuck up is super exciting. I haven't had the potentitial for gear loss in EQ in twenty years

    Yeah that's what I've heard. I feel like there's a whole bunch of parsed data on charm pets, I just don't know which communities have it. TLP is so different from live, it's so competitive and nobody shares stuff publicly.

    This is my first TLP but from what people say sk/shm is one of the top duos for classic EQ next to mnk/sha and enc/cle. Yes you need 2 physical computers, fucking 2020.

    Yeah if Aradune turns out to be a bot-infested shit hole I'll really regret deciding to play on Aradune, which includes buying an laptop just to truebox. I'm optimistic though, on the basis that if that a single GM just randomly porting around testing people is really enough to put a huge dent...

    I was originally going to do enc/dru with the idea that dru provides ports, DD and power level capability. I switched to cleric with the idea that they'll be more efficient healers, have CH which helps with charmed mobs with huge HP pools and shite mitigation and I won't use their druid's DDs...

    problem with necros on live is: 1. The skill cap for a necro relative to everybody else, especially wizards/mages, is massive. Mages/wizards have a few things they need to account for to get decent DPS, necros have to balance several different spell-lineups. Only after playing 5x harder than...

    Was thinking about the previous posts about truebox detection and how you can exploit the truebox code to immediately log out: On truebox what happens when you try to log in two characters from the same PC, does it just instant boot you? I'm thinking about what I'm going to do on TLP and...

    Are there any resources that describe common gearing paths for classic as you level? Or do people pretty much limp to 50 in full groups on the backs of pets and charmed mobs and then start farming BiS items?

    Who knows. The game is super modable in a lot of ways but they are planning on releasing mod tools for it, so it's locked down in other ways. It's also in early access.

    One of the best decisions I made when trying out a 4x mage + enc + dru box team was setting up sweet explosion sounds for big hits and alliance fulminations (for those not on live, you cast a debuff on a mob and if a few other people of the same class cast their standard spell a couple times it...

    Im rolling a cleric, but why would you want to focus on a character that mostly stands up, heals and sits down? If you wanted to make a battle cleric that melees and tanks, make a paladin.

    This seems hilarious to me as a live player where my characters APM is like, 100 between the huge number of AAs and skill usages. I manage that by just spamming a set of keys ln basically all the characters. It's different in early EQ, but i dont see how truebox could do this as the game...

    Meh. The big problem i have with bannerlord troop trees is the lack of variety mostly caused by lords still rolling with mostly t1 and t2 troops, but secondarily caused by the general lack of variety even at t4+. This mod doesn't seem to address that. Easiest way to do it is to make each troops...

    Mage epic sucks, can not recommend. And the mage 2.0 is useless. Mob Difficulty wise, on live the epic quests are trivial, you'll be able to easily defeat the content with only a little leveling.
