    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Just gave away a Darkblade of the Warlord and Shield of Strife to a new player lvl30'ish war. I'm getting too nice in my old EQ age.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Also, melee stuns are removed so Ogre is pointless once you cap your stats. Capping stats happens super early as all gear is boosted. Iksar is the only real beneficial tank class with their higher raw AC.

    Those downloads are compressed files. YMMV. Just like a crappy BR rip, you can have crap 4k rips.

    Torrents

    Know what you did exactly? They will ban if you access the website through a VPN for some dumb reason. I had forgot to turn mine off once. Try the IRC and see if you can get details.

    I don't trust TV Torrents. They were great first time around, but the site got nuked and were down for well over a year or two. BTN for life!!

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    You want to use BCS (Broadcast Server) commands. When you open the MQ2 folder, there are two different .exe in there. One for MQ2 and the other is MQBCS server, which simply opens a window you minimize. This way you can use /bca (broadcast all) /bct (broadcast tell). Example, on your main toon...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    FFS, how casual slackmode were you guys!?? My server's casual mom and pop guild had killed RZ / Sol Ro and were in all 4 EPs before GoD release. I would place that guild as a dead center average for server. You must have really been in a total shit scrub guild wiping to Caprin or some such nonsense.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Figured this thread would be the right place. I have backed the previous Edition 1 and Edition 2 Kickstarters for the Mini Museum and they are super cool. Probably the most fascinating purchases I have ever made in my life. Edition 3 Kickstarter launched less than an hour ago and is nearly sold...

    HDTVs

    Personally, I think curved is another bullshit gimmick to sell new TVs. The only way it makes sense for a curved display is if you are close enough like a computer monitor where it curves in your peripheral vision. Most living rooms / HT rooms are so far away, it makes no sense. It is just sat...

    Yea, the file sizes on the few 4k rips I have scene are pretty insane at 50GB+ worth of data. You are still talking about a huge chunk of people on shitty US ISPs that have data caps to deal with.

    SoE had been so used to pushing out half assed broken content for years. WoW's polish was groundbreaking at the time.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    You need a real tank that can use the OP Evasive (super long duration here). Otherwise, your shaman will never keep up with heals. Before 3 boxing was allowed, I was doing a ton of content as an SK / Shm only into PoP. Puma buff on my SK was my primary DPS, so overall my dps sucked. But, you can...

    EverQuest starting stats for real life races

    Wearing these JBoots as an Erudite will auto-flag you for PVP with other Erudite races. JBoots become lootable on Erudite vs Erudite PVP death.

    Not sure if serious, but the key to speed reading is not thinking the words "aloud" in your head as you read. Who the fuck reads with their lips moving?

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    I've said it a few times on these boards, but GoD was totally fucked. We were 3rd worldwide to kill Rathe (that was a massive cockblock). Other roadblocks were due to blown triggers like Coirnav and the RZ event. It took time waiting for trigger respawns to learn the overall encounters. But yea...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Yea, Nisea added lower raid tier GoD loot to Crushbone. Outside of castle named have augments, inside castle has armor / jewelry, Dvinn has Cragbeast Queen quest reward drops. Castle armor is pretty much equal to or worse than Time gear. Dvinn items are equal or better than Quarm. The named...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    That's obvious, but there is a massive gear gap (mainly resists) needed for Time coming right out of Luclin.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Btw, I haven't really been on in weeks. SK got BiS everything and have about 9 toons in Time gear. Dev work seems to have ground to a halt, so there is fuck all to do. That said, if you are a new player I still think the server experience is a blast. Enjoy it for what it is, but the game...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    My 3 box team is SK / Shm / Rogue. Once you max out that assassinate skill, you can insta-kill anything up to dark blues. Pretty damn nice clearing trash in places. That said, if you want to be clearing PoTime with low numbers (6 toons), you best damn well have a Bard for the resists. Between...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    Kinda crazy Time / Quarm is doable without farming EP armor whatsoever. Time is supposed to be pretty damn hard / impossible without proper resists. What allows the content to be so trivial this time around?

    FB also reported another top and bottom beat in their Q4 earnings today plus DAU MAU topping estimates. This is years worth of quarterly beats now. This lawsuit is chump change at this point.

    Taxes 2016

    It's the same logic you need to consider when choosing a traditional 401k vs a Roth 401k. The simplest answer is, if you think you are in a higher tax bracket while earning and a lower bracket in retirement, a traditional IRA or 401k is usually better. (Greater tax savings now vs later in...

    Desktop Computers

    IIRC: Oculus is barely over 1080p when both screens are combined, so the need for DP isn't really there. HDMI can render 4k at 60 fps max, while DP can do crazy shit like 8k at 60 fps and 10 bit color + HDR. (older HDMI spec was only 30 fps and the first few gens of 4k monitors required 2x HDMI...

    Weighs a lot more than it should. Rode around in my friend's Golf-R in the UK and it was pretty damn peppy though. Problem I have with VW is they have crept up to BMW / Audi prices. VW is not of the same caliber in my opinion.

    Because DP is the future. HDMI is inferior. (It's like whining about having 3 DVI outputs and "only 1 VGA" for older gen cards) In a nutshell, far higher bandwidth (refresh rates at higher resolutions) with DP vs HDMI. DisplayPort vs HDMI vs DVI vs VGA - AVADirect

    Another thing to be considered is the EQ2 effect over time. Setting all of its other flaws aside for one second.. The pace of combat at the start was perfectly fine. Decent cast times, cooldowns, and whatnot. However, character strength improvement over the years revolved around focus that would...

    Plus, once you are in Time the rest of PoP content is pretty much obsolete. Log in to clear Time, log out and wait for a new instance to be available. Rinse and repeat for X months.
