    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    At 60, go to Hole. At 65, you need Luclin access and go to Droga. Both of those zones are massively more xp than anywhere else for their respective levels. (plus super low hp mobs and quick respawn) In regards to your boot to char select, I really don't think that code is in. I have seen Snacks...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    We (Darkwind) woke sleeper on Ragefire a few weeks into Velious for no reason whatsoever. I played a monk and never got a shroud, nor did we get SoDs for many people. Hell, we didn't even have competition close to us. Leadership was just all kinds of pants-on-head retarded thinking post wakening...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    It has already been established that this TLP isn't really legit, as they use all modern damage tables and a myriad of other changes that has scaled up DPS significantly. Plus, you didn't even get VT 1.0 with trash that blinded people and whatnot. Modern EQ is a cakewalk compared to back then.

    How much income is enough?

    @Shonuff needs to hire my ass so I don't have to grind away here in the shitty Middle East to get ahead! If I have to put up with another year of this gov contracting bs, I am going to lose my damn mind. I need a new career, but feel trapped by my earnings. I honestly make 3-4x what I would in...

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    6 months of PoP sounds brutal. Once you are Time keyed, literally all other content is pointless. You log in for your instanced version of Time and then log back out. No other content is worthwhile. I am burned out of Time myself playing on an Emu, having farmed Time the last 1 month only.

    Everquest II

    Speaking of houses, I remember collecting those baby dragons for the original collector's box set. I probably had over half a dozen different ones wandering around my house. Poor things are sat neglected collecting dust in the interwebz somewhere.

    Same. I was invited to Alpha/Beta way back when it was under Microsoft in 2005. I think I had an AMD FX60 cpu / 7800GTX gpu at release. It always ran like shit. Definitely had to be my sound card, I guess! I am 100% convinced qwerty is a troll at this point.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I have had the Phillips Hue in my HT room for over a year now. The app is annoying as fuck, but the remote is perfect. It amazingly takes no batteries and is powered by the audible click when you press one of the presets. It has 3 preset buttons (you program the presets with the app once) and an...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    4K is starting to make its way into streams / downloads. 150GB is like 3 movies. WTF. So glad I don't live in the US and put up with this shit anymore. I've had 300MB unlimited fiber for the last ~5 years here in the Middle East of all places.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Eh... focus effects are pretty critical for a caster. Though, the poorly thought out server augment negates that here. Typically, you need to be hunting for the highest fire / ice / magic direct damage focus items as a wizard. VT / Plane of Time focus would be very meaningful. But, you can just...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    EQ Mac's demise was due to the hack that allowed PC clients to connect to the server. This allowed really old builds of MQ with powerful hacks because, as you said, the Mac server was frozen in time circa 2002 with no patches since. The PC players boosted the population nicely for a very short...

    I believe most of the artifacting in 1080p rips is due to the compression. I see it most in scenes with a lot of black. My guess is they are removing a lot of bits for the swaths of black screen, so you end up with lots of jagged transitions vs smoother black detail with a fully uncompressed...

    No doubt this is true. Why spend all the R&D money when you have the best chips in town? They felt they could get complacent, as AMD was miles behind. I truly hope Zen delivers so we can see some real innovation again.

    Their steak quesarito is legit, followed closely behind by chicken. That's got to me my favorite menu item.

    Taco Bell menu items are like a lego assembly of parts. They probably had everything needed for the steakhouse burrito. I would have simply asked if they could make you one anyway.

    Truth is, most everyone 3 boxes here. You can go a long way without it, but content gets progressively more difficult. I suspect a non-twinked 3 box setup will start needing assistance come Vex Thall. PoTime probably needs around 9-15 chars on a first clearing, perhaps more for Quarm. Group...

    Just know, it's the change in physical size that allows you to pop through. So, some classes work with some items and not with others. Ie: My Iksar will not get through doors with the AoN (skelly illusion), but it does work with DE mask. It's important to know in case you're still not getting...

    I will PM Devs to see if they can get it unlocked. I know they removed loads of others already in Seb, HS, Hole entrance, etc. Might have missed Chardok!

    Locks should have been removed on those doors. Have you checked? If they are still locked, you can get through doors with illusion items. (DE mask or AoN)

    What Did President X Do for You?

    Probably my biggest gripe about GWB. The guy enacted TWO tax cuts while initiating two wars. It was part of what spiraled the country into a massive deficit. Wars are expensive, why the fuck would you decide to cut taxes then? Bush tax cuts - Wikipedia
