Yeah thats essentially what ive been doing with shaman. But I have my SK with 1hs and shield using the defensive stance AA. Never even tried a 2hander with him sine he got his 1.0 epic, lol. Im going to have to try it. Dont get me wrong though, on a mamed or boss when i have time to dot it up...

I got sk, shaman, ranger. 2 dps casters and ine cleric merc. I had one caster and one rogue merc, but I found the rogue merc died alot when multiples were pulled and I get way better TTK with 2 casters. I like the ranger for set and forget dps, outdoor calms, ghetto root mez, even vineleash for...

You dont need any of that. Just make a mound of lump in your komodo, place 3-4 cotton balls soaked with alcohol and the stuff is ready in 5 min. But do what you want bro, just relaying some infos. for slow smoking at like 225-250F you want the charcoal to burn slow from top down. so in essence...

Quick and fast burn and no fuss no mess. some guy at home depot told me about this and I tried it and never looked back. Also no chemicals some of that shit is soaked in. like starter fluid. Might not be important for grilling but it is for smoking shit for long time as not to impart any off...

Use good lump coal. And use a few cotton balls soaked with alcohol to get it started. Keep it at a low air setting because once that shit gets out of control temp wise, its hard to bring back down. Its always easier to adjust up rather than down. Buy yourself a nice thermometer. I have one that...

Just seeing thar rolling combat text window brings back mrmories. Looks like same diku mud shit. Nice.

Wasnt that the December 3 hour stream? If so, yeah shit looks tight for alpha. as long as he keeps some of his brad ideas out of the game, like asinine down time, shitty corpse runs, and the like.

Well if you consider quality 200-300 mind numbing boring ass quests,2-3 on rails dungeons consisting of 2 corridors and 2-3 raids that are farmed for 2 yrs quality, well, obviously we differ in what we call quality. Look I get WoW is a quality game, no doubt about it, just not my cup of tea. The...

But blizz takes 2 fucking years to release an expansion, EQ had 1 every 9 months. Yeah some of that shit was not finished, tuned, but content is god in MMRPGs especially PvE ones. AND on top of it all, most EQ expansions did not make old ones obsolete, a duble whammy for blizzard, when no one...

Sadly im still hoping they shit this thing out. In the day of wow and 10000 wow clones form india, taiwan and other such places, Im willing to give this a shot.

I worked there when I was 15, back in the late 80s. Back when they made shit fresh, almost to every order. Then later in the 90s they added storage bins to the operation, like Burger King had. So they cooked the meat and placed it in a warming tray, this is why shit tastes like cardboard now.

That was later on in EQ. Back in classic-pop era those pets were squishy as fuck. Only later did they give them many many passes of power throughout the years.Then on top of it all they nerfed the way exp was gained back in like late 2001, so yo had to do 1/2 the damage to a mob to get full exp...

Yeah all that shit you talk about is called progression, yeah it happened in EQ.

EQ was never hard. It was tedious and dangerous at low levels until you established a network. Once you were lv 50+ and had a network of buddies it was easymode, yet still tedious as hell. Gameplay mechanics were basic tank and spank for almost everything, with a cleric rotation and as much...

Klipsch has some. 2.1 good and loud, mike an headphone jack.

I make about 90K and the wife which recently went back to work part time adds in about 10-20K more per year. And this is comfortable for us here in Detroit suburbs. Not rich, but definitely not poor either. Pretty much debt free except house, Have a nice 2K sq ft ranch in nice neighborhod, have...

Its about fucking time, it only took them a decade to finally utilize HT, lol

I agree there. At least Daybreak is not going after the emu community for Everquest, hty kind of said good job and left the shit alone and while P99 was a shit show of cash for items sales and shit, GMs taking shit off banned characters and selling the stuff for RM..etc. I gues they locked that...

Yeah for sure but where to spend the cash for an upgrade? Im willing to bet that a 1070 will be way better upgrade to his gaming than a proc. Unless you want to go hog wild and drop $800-$1k for the whole thing. I would wait for the next jump intel anyways. Supposedly from what i read the next...

The problem is that you just hit a place where yove basically finished everything. I played on a server like this VoG, took 4 toons leveled them up strictly through dungeons, geared them up as best as I could, etc.Veksar, Sebilis, Shassera, etc. then you just hit a dead end. PoP was the next...

well the whole quest system was broke and fucked. Trying to type certain phrases to have the NPC advance the quest line? Or items that would drop whch were labled no-drop so you knew they were quest items, but you had to look that up in Allakhazams encyclopedia what quest it was for. Wow had...

LOL as soon as POP went live Luclin was deader than dead. Hardly anyone went there save Paludial Caverns which was the new exp hot spot for lv 5-25, that and maybe some high end raids.

Yeah I heard that recently Daybreak went through the item database and made a change to some 50K+ quest items that didnt have a quest tag on them. Basically fixing most of the broken quests in EQ that were broken since day one.

You could not do crawling in EQ anyways because of the level disparity between mobs. Most dungeons had a level range of 10, even 20+ levels between the entrance and the bowels. Some even having raid encounters at the bottom. And while im sure the original intent was to be crawled through...

That first one is funny as hell

Whats with his story? Is this dude for real or is this some shop?

Who even cares about that dead ass game and his characters.

Probably, like i said its been a while.

Ok ill stop.

Hey, never said eq didnt have its faults either. Some of that shit was brutal in eq, like the camping for shit. Its all tradeoffs. Also dying down there and trying to get all your shit back. None of that was necessary. Like i said middle ground.

Thats cool then, wow was the best game ever guys. Never mind then.

That was me pwning peeps with my TUF and windfury in AVs. then like all things, it came to an end quickly, like Warrs and their * (forgot the name of that one weapon they used to pwn with) Arcanite reaper!

Those were all tuned for that nice little 45 min run thorough. Maybe some of the higher level ones like strat and dire maul which were added later were a bit more spread out with their 4-5 bosses and trash that dropped nil, but they were no where near the level of complexity of even Blackburow...

Yes but this was back in 2004? Maybe Im not remembering it correct, but thats what I took away from it. WoW Zyy you must of really loved it, I jjust did not have the same feeling. Aside the PvP the whole thing was a snooze fest. I remember constantly falling asleep at the wheel leveling on those...

None of that shit really mattered though, well maybe in the beginning days, but most of that shit, even blues were all replaced in a few levels by a green or another blue. Then later by dungeon loot and raid and BG loots. Economy was shit, everything save some rare ass .0001% rare drop blues...

Best was a thief on release. Later to be nerfed. But you would sneak around looking for groups grinding and farming. Slowly make your way up to them and steal all their shit. rinse, repeat. Then SB.exe or fucking rubberband your way back to yesterdays game session.

Meh some of that shit I mentioned was there since beginning like a sterilized world and the shit tier questing with dick for rewards.

This is why I said BETWEEN EQ and WoW. No one wants classic again, at least I dont. Aint no one got time for that. On the PvP front i do agree with you. I do enjoy me some PvP sprinkled in for sure open world, battlegrounds, shit like AVs were fucking epic, the classic AV. But the arena crap it...

Anyway, the whole point to this is maybe we do need to take a step back a bit to the glory days of mmorpgs and rediscover some of that lost magic. Im hoping someone does it right again, maybe this game who knows, but there has to be a middle ground here somewhere between EQ and WoW that someone...

Could not be social in WoW other than vent or mumble because you were busy mashing buttons like a fucking monkey with no downtime in between.
