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

    Right, I mostly am not a huge fan of the art style of later EQ, but there are a few exceptions that I think are good. I think they actually did really good with the zone revamps in EoK and RoS, and I think the RoF and Underfoot zones are all really well done. But I also really dislike when old...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Most of what he's suggesting would just be enabling already complete features onto TLPs. Offline Trader I'm suspiciously certain is a thing because it is a revenue generator. I believe to go into Offline Trader mode you need to be a Gold Status account, so they derive revenue from all the bazaar...

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

    The only revamp zone that slightly bothers me at all is Freeport, and that's just because it made the city too big and tedious to move around in. I frankly don't see any real issue with any of the other revamp zones. I have zero real emotional attachment to those mostly empty and boring old EQ...

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

    There's a lot of later era EQ players, the EG7 release didn't give us much of a server by server idea but we've been told revenue between TLP is and live is about even. The average live player I know is much more likely to sub 4-6 accounts, all paid via credit card, and is much more likely to...

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

    Agnarr is actually relatively decent as a long term server, long term so far, every TLP to make it past Underfoot has experienced massive population die off. Phinny and Selo basically finished with 1 guild or so. Fippy died before reaching the end in COTF. Coirnav is in a rough spot from all I...

    I'm a little surprised that triggered mob isn't * since it was one of the more common Epic mobs stolen on previous servers. I generally won't turn a crown in if I see anyone in that little area because of the historic troubles. I'm kinda curious if that's the same Sakura who was in Faceless...

    They well could be, I don't know about it for sure though, I just know for sure 70+. I think Monks and Rogues do a lot more of their damage from auto attacks earlier on which is why I'm not sure.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Warrior passive dps isn't amazing at the moment but they are basically the best auto attack DPS in the game level 70+, and get stronger at that over time. Even at 115 they lack a lot of dps cooldowns and active use dps abilities which is why their burn DPS is usually weak, but with the right...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Truebox is complete trash to be frank, it's one reason why I largely told myself I was done doing "serious" TLP after Agnarr, and I broke that vow for Selo basically because it was a very unique opportunity, outside of that I've basically only touched TLPs very casually. The core issue with...

    Everquest Confessions

    The number of sordid and often tragic cases of EQ adultery is almost worth its own thread. I do have to say that particular spice of drama seemed way more prevalent 18-20 years ago on retail than it has been on TLP.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    We leveled basically two groups through Chardok using Boltran's and it was fast and I don't remember much about it being a problem. There are some negatives for Boltran's vs Allure, but it was never a real issue. We had groups built around multi-charming though.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    I'd personally enjoy a TSS start server but I don't think the masses would go to it sadly, there's a very significant share of the TLP population that simply is only interested in Classic thru PoP, for some of them even making it to PoP is a stretch.

    I’m in <The Faceless>, but I wasn’t 50 until the day before Kunark and have only done one raid night with them. I kinda would like to go hard on Mischief but running a live guild + things ramping up at work now that covid is over is kind of a disincentive. Some of the officers Zaide has lined up...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Lol, it's a nice myth we just killed Emp with no idea how VT worked, ignoring we had like 30 luclinite orbs before that, did we just assign those randomly? We clearly had a list of our first 40, it just wasn't built before launch, so it limited some of what we could do week 1. Like we couldn't...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    tfw you're talking about stuff we already talked about. Yes, we knew who our first 40 was going up to Emp. No, they weren't done with shards--neither were Amtrak's first 40 (this was already covered in the thread.) Amtrak started shard keying earlier because they knew before the server launched...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Lol I honestly said I was done since this had worked itself out, but I was talking it over with some people and I think we actually lost because we got behind on shard farming and they got into VT a full day before us. I think that's the real key. Them having a DZ that had an AHR free to engage...

    Bro put your autism shaming shit away. You've been saying "this is my last TLP" since Agnarr. You may not have as deep level autism as me and cuk, but you have ENOUGH Autism you shouldn't be throwing stones.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Keep in mind no one put losing the race on you, I just said having you as a single point of failure was a mistake. The point I'm making is I didn't cuck out in any of our raids, I was there for all of them in the launch. You had to dip out of the most important raid. There's a reason I've...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    What I would say about the horse issue Cuk is the fact you were actually able to cross over the geometry alive and were still dying, like at that point the horse isn't relevant. To actually execute the skip you have to get over the geometry, and a fast mount helps with that, but then you have to...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Also let's be clear a little bit, the mount helps you get across the geometry, that is part of, but certainly not the critical part, of the skip. You actually maybe don't remember, but you made the skip several times, you just died every single time to mobs. You have to both get through...

    A lot of stuff you are saying in that convo, and the timestamps involved, don't make sense to me. For one we never killed TVK in our DZ, we never even got that far. For two, our DZ had already expired by the time stamps in this convo. I literally have this time stamp from our officer chat with...

    Nothing in this convo makes me believe we didn't give you a rhino mount. I mention a rhino mount would make it easier, because I didn't have a rhino mount before VT, but I did by the time this conversation would have occurred. Maybe this conversation is what you're relying on to "remember" you...

    FWIW I think for the people in that raid, there is no real asterisk. Beating Mearatas is lke a legit EQ accomplishment these TLP mouthbreathers will never understand. My only point was if Atabishi wants to get real technical and stupid, I could pick apart things for OGC. But Atabishi doesn't...

    I'm going to Bishi style wall of text here to try to actually fully respect your points and explain where I'm coming from. When you say we didn't funnel are you talking about keys or gear?

    I mean I literally said there were two mistakes made during launch, both were 100% on me. Maybe you didn't read that or didn't see it. Nowhere did I say you were the reason for our entire guild's performance. What I did say is you don't really have much right to complain about the Selo guild...

    That isn't accurate Rajaah. The actual way progression boards (like the one ran by Beimeth for live) work is join raids do not count. You guys beat Mearatas in a joint raid. So no, OGC did not beat TBL in era. "Phinny Joint Raids" did. As someone who has actually done Mearatas, I literally am...

    Like I said, your memory is plain not accurate here. We clearly had less DPS than them, and they had a pre-cleared DZ that reopened in a few hours. Staying in open world was not the best chance to win, doing a DZ was. It was not a great chance because we were frankly out positioned to this...

    This goes back to maybe you just don't remember, because you were 100% given a rhino by Kith. I actually don't think you would just lie about something so black and white, so I'm going to assume with all the drama maybe you just forgot. I will note that your constant AoS dick sucking (by the...

    Maybe that strategy would have worked, hard to say. We would not have known any of that was possible at the time. Like I said, zero of us had ever seen warder VT. Something Amtrak kinda likes to not mention is none of their core had either. They actually got trained up heavily by Mabbu's guild...
