And if you had stuffed other crap in the shared bank it stayed there and you got rolled back to a time before effectively duplicating the item. I'm actually surprised how many people aren't up to speed on this.

I'm skeptical of their ability to really track down people that had items duped in the last rollback. They better hope they never need to do a rollback again because now everyone knows what's up with that and will shove their shared bank full of everything valuable they have. Hell, I had shit...

I've seen those kinds of events unfold in a game store and in a pizza place near a game store but never more than one nerd degree of separation.

It's not a good card but it's fun and the flavor is decent with some silly combo potential and/or big plays factor. Could be worse.

Yep, no mechanically intensive elements in the game of League of Legends.

I like that you are attempting to trivialize the mechanical demands of League of Legends by using quotations derisively. That's good stuff. Very enjoyable.

Is that what you think I meant? I'll clue you in. "Why would we bother putting effort into replays and training mode at all when skins like Arcade Riven stack paper up to the ceiling?" If their Chinese masters told them that the only fruit they can pick are the ones that hang the lowest...

A game as large and as successful as League of Legends with as big of an international competitive scene as League has is going forward with no training mode and no replays in the year of our Lord and Savior 2015 and there are actually people out there defending their decision to not include...

You are out of your fucking mind. Might I introduce you to the fighting game community? Hell, scratch that. Might I introduce you to the concept of PRACTICE? You know, it's that thing you do to get better atanything.League of Legends is a game that can put some pretty substantial mechanical...

League of Legends is what, the largest or one of the largest competitive e-sports in the world? No replays. No training mode. Support my ability to grow in mastery indeed.

I could not agree more. There are aspects of this game that have high, high mechanical requirements and to just refuse to include a way of practicing them efficiently is fucking stupid. Each new fighting game that comes out tries to include a better training mode than all others before it and...

There's a robe you can buy that absorbs Holy and although you think his Lightning Stab does Lightning Damage it doesn't. It does the same damage as the element of the sword the character has equipped. If you show up with that robe equipped (Chamelion I think?) the only attack Wiegraf will use...

Yeah, that was my initial experience as a kid as well. I definitely had one play through at the start where I leveled up Ramza way above everyone else and couldn't actually play the game anymore because the monsters were fifteen levels higher than the rest of the party. The game was full of...

This guy gets it. 97 Bravery, 3 Faith, immune to spells, immune to almost ever physical attack in the game including ranged attacks and physical specials. Cloud and Beowulf in a vacuum are both amazing. It's just that while you are setting up Finishing Touch or turning people into chicken's...

There is no way those kids have any idea who those people are and probably not even who the Ghostbusters are.

In the case of a human being playing one Magician and another human being playing one Necromancer the Necromancer is the better class. But oh man do Mages take the cake when it comes to stacking and for boxing. You get almost all of their vast power for very, very little effort.

Even if the servers go terminal there will be people doing content (Kunark, Velious, Luclin, PoP at least) for a long time.

Players on a server advertised as no box will rabidly ferret out boxers.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure a no box server will keep away the Mage armies.

Yes, they are going to start a server that prohibits boxing and there's going to be people boxing 20 Mages on it. You are the one that is delusional.

Do you have any idea how rabidly the player base of an EQ server with that restriction will hunt down boxers? Sure, there's going to be some people boxing a second character here and there. The six, twelve, eighteen, twenty-four, thirty, and thirty-six boxers will not exist.

This isn't a casual versus hardcore issue. The servers have people boxingdozensof characters all paid with Krono earned by monopolizing group, multi-group, and even raid content. They won't exist on a no box server. Raid content has been tuned under the assumption you've got 20+ pet classes and...

Go the Stormhammer route. Have a guild make an appointment with a GM to spawn a copy of a raid boss in the Arena in Lake Rathetear. If you can beat it you get on the rotation. If you can't hack it you can get another chance in a week.

When they release their eventual No Boxing TLP server next year everyone will have forgotten about how ridiculous this got and rush to go play there.

With the existence of Kronos almost no one is actually ponying up real money to field their box crews. It's a big part of why there's so much of it.

I could replace all of this EQ jargon with Dungeons and Dragons or Magic the Gathering nonsense and no one would be able to tell the difference.

I think everyone is in agreement when I say

All of this is a consequence of spending too much time in Classic. By spending so much time here all of the quirks and problems of the era have grown cancerous rather than smooth out over time. Mages being too good for the time period turned the servers into a sea of Mage bots. Single...

We had someone lose a Encyclopedia Necrotheurgia (the Necro only pet focus from Hate that might as well be a fucking unicorn for how rare it is) along with a Blighted Robe. There are some people that lost just tons and tons and tons of time and equipment. God loot, completed Sky items, dragon...

The rotation isn't really about classic as much as it is about Kunark. Having all of this groundwork in place before it goes live will prevent one guild from cockblocking the entire expansion for the three months it'll take to get to Velious. Daybreak saw how Classic went without any structure...

Did anybody on Lockjaw have time to run to Jaggedpine? When things went crazy the only thing I wanted to try and didn't was getting the journeymen rank 1 achievement. I was thinking maybe achievements were stored somewhere else and would escape a rolleback.

Killed Bees first try tonight and the rest of Sky as well. Boss Bee's melee has to just be a mistake. He clubbed a geared warrior for 2450, 2450 with a double attack and is still just immune to everything. It's pretty stupid. If Trakanon hit for 4k I wouldn't even be surprised.

What the fuck are they talking about? Bodily perfection? She's weird looking and built like a stick. In that scene in American Beauty Kevin Spacey's character was fantasizing about a 16 year old girl. It was and still is pretty creepy.

You never had a night decided by a /random? How fortunate for you.

Yeah, it's not EQ unless disputes are settled by GM enforced duels or whoever is First in Force (however that gets defined at that moment) or all of the other silly ways GMs arbitrated conflicts. Need some Play Nice Policies up in here.

Herp derp.

He mangled someone while drunk in a sports car or something stupid and then cried about how unfair it was while in prison and the tape made it to the judge. He's a retard.

Yeah, it's really amusing that people want to do things related to the class they picked.

Instead of addressing what Mages and people boxing piles of Mages was doing to content they have rebalanced Hate, Fear, and Sky around the assumption that you are showing up with 30+ Mages. It has warped the entire game and this isn't really even Everquest anymore. It's someone's homebrewed...

Killed Draco. The fight is a nightmare and straight up requires 20-30 Mages with more being preferable. Fifty would probably be ideal with zero melee dps characters and zero tanks. Just healers and Mages. We generated a mountain of corpses killing. Drops were It took so long to clear...
