    Launch is less than one week away and they're still having issues with the "true box" mechanic lol. So this 2.5 day replay lockout, how will that work? Does this mean if a player leaves and instance w/o killing a boss they're unable to zone back in for 2.5 days? Will this mean you can't rez...

    Going to be lawling when someone creates all these guilds on other servers the day before launch.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    Vaclav if you edit that post you can remove the "403 Forbidden" and add the actual guild name. Would make using your list much easier.

    I am positive Detheb/Titan is telling the truth here. Back when we were pals Dima also told me he did not intend to go hard on LJ, that he did not want to be the top guild etc. This was during the first week of the server mind you. At first he didn't seem sure he wanted to play but after the...

    The two biggest issues I saw on RF/LJ were the six month timers (dead horse) and the faster respawn rate of raid mobs. To be the "Top Guild" in early EQ you've got to do the following: Get the "server firsts" i.e. beat content the fastestGet the majority of all relevant raid contentDefeat...

    With a three hour respawn it doesn't need to be automated. It's easy to just do it manually. Set an alarm and do your thing. Even if you sleep 8 hours a day you artificially limit the VP count to two per day. Obviously in this scenario we're imagining an extremely dedicated person but I bet...

    Each instance is another 50 people to open, give or take. So you need 150 to get three pickzone and so on. It takes one level 1 iksar to auto loot the groundspawn. Which do you think is easier to do, get 200+ people in swamp of no hope or getting 4 characters in swamp of no hope.

    You will see people crying for forced rotations based on the "unfair" instance lockout timers. There will be drama over open world spawns because a lot of these big personalities are going there to be the number one guild, no one wants to be second place. The drama should be epic.

    Everquest - Phinigel server

    There is no way a regular six month server transition won't exhaust the player base. It will definitely burn out any half way decent guilds, that's for sure.

    It doesn't matter what the name is. All the same players will end up in the same guild within three months. EQ players are largely like bandwagon football fans. They just join the winning team.

    New Progression Server confirmed

    The raid instances are account locked and at 50 you can still box down Vox/Nag with like six mages. I'd expect there to be crews of people with like 6+ accounts each all of which have a max level mage on it. Then you all just farm the raid mobs for the week once per account and sell the loot or...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    It's weird that some of this stuff is coming out as new info etc. We've had a few of the guys from big P99/Red99 guilds in our crew and they've talked about exactly this stuff for ages. What was the name of that guild that Tanthallas formed that split off of like BDA? Edit: Nevermind, it...

    Watching MM jump Gore at 25% after another guild wiped to her and then still wipe at 11% was one of the funniest moments on Lockjaw so far.

    I don't think raiding had anything to do with most of the attrition you saw. Like every server it opens, it's new popular and shiny and people become bored of it after a week or two. Either the leveling is too slow, or the game isn't quite so fun when it's auto attack and kick or Vox is boring...

    There are two different fears used by the various dragons. Dragon Roar and Dragon Fear, one has a negative resist mod and the other does not. Ragefire uses the Nagafen AE (I believe) so it's much easier to resist. Sev/Tal/Gore use the -150 Fear so you need to be over 300 MR to reliably resist them.

    I'm sure you guys have experienced this a lot more than we have but the way it seems to go is you've got these "competitive" guilds who whine and cry about how you only win because of XYZ (Zerging, socking, mage armies, no families etc) then every time a member of their guild joins you find out...

    I'm 10 INT so I won't do it but my roommate is scumming about 8-10 times to get it. It's pretty annoying to watch his neanderthal out level a character designed to maximize leveling efficiency.

    It's apples and oranges fellas. Both guilds are great, both had unique benefits and issues that they faced due to the fact that DBG can't go a month without changing things up. Here's to more great launches in the future.

    Yeah we actually tried to level some Warriors to 55 for Trak first but by 52 it was already taking them too long even with tons of out of group dps. So we said fuck it and walled him.

    "Similar to Skyrim's reputation system, Fallout 4 will have a*Karma based reputation system.*Your actions will earn you respect in-game." Everything we learned about Fallout 4 from QuakeCon 2015 I feel like I saw a reputation pop up in some leaked gameplay footage I saw as well.

    I just see the cumulative impact of high Int resulting in me being able to fully flesh out my character easier. Faster levels means higher special sooner, more perks etc. It's kind of like starting weaker for a stronger mid -> end game.

    Gameplay wise I wish "sprint" speed was standard run speed and I wish we jumped higher or had double jump. I find myself constantly trying to jump like my Hunter did in Destiny. Otherwise it's really awesome. Like others have said, Halo is a game where map knowledge is really important, and...
