Newer content is the only reason to play on Live. The old content sucks, and the changes to AC/HP code for the benefit of newer content have made much of older content trivial even in era appropriate equipment; furthermore, the whole point of massive PLing is to reach the newer content...

Either way they do it, it's a positive change. XP rate should be balanced without the consideration of the kind of PLing that goes on. If people aren't enjoying the process of leveling or AAing at certain points these PLing tactics simply serve as a band-aid to fix that void of enjoyment. EQ...

They changed the XP buff to a 20k LoH on a 20m cooldown. I assume it's still self only, but I'd rather have received one of my suggestions. We'll see after the reset. On live, paladins can do some very significant fast self-only heals on a 3m cooldown, iirc. 20k is very very high. A top...

Yea, the ratios at the end of velious should destroy those weapons.

This is the kind of thing that boggles my mind about these designers. I give feedback on the custom spells they added to velious. Wizards get really OP shit that beats luclin spells, shamans get slow+cripple (which is partially broken) and some nuke upgrade. Paladins get a +10% self only xp...

I know on FV that GTCs were massively undervalued before Krono came in. I don't know what they're at now. People are terrible at math.

Well we actually did have some help with this one. Descendants member: Dexterade, Veni, and Excidium (recently of TFO) joined us to kill Vulak'Aerr tonight. We got akkirus mask, jaelen's katana, priest shield, priest vambraces, and 3 ancients. ST keys are still very rare. We likely...

I may have used the wrong words then. I liked Miranda and the Illusive Man. I liked working for him. It made the missions more interesting.

2 > 3 > 1 I think. Combat in 3 was great, but I preferred the plot development of 2.

So I'm not good at taking pictures or remembering to post them when I take them. With these manifold talents it is obvious why I'm responsible for this. First up is the rat Dark Sliver came in and helped with this one like they do all our other kills, but are polite enough not to be in...

For someone with limited time that wants to play a warrior+cleric+_____ it is very very good. Most of the people defending the status quo fit some of the criteria of the holy trinity. Class balance in this period wasn't that great, but currently warriors are the best tank, best hate, and...

Yael does DT.

nice nice. should be able to get you keyed if you have more time

pharmakos, come back to kpemu. why did you stop playing? A -

torrent UF and titanium. copy over unique files from titanium to UF, edit the eqhosts file and eqgame shortcut, download their custom files from forum, play. for maximum win enable velious textures in your eqclient.ini and use old models. oh and you have to make accounts at eqemulator.org or...

BL dps was scaled to luclin HP levels, and shy of that they're OP with vanilla values compared to older classes. The same is true for berserker epic and skills which were nerfed down to something resembling normal for the period we're in.

No, what SOE went with in the end is the provoke CAs and shield specialization. Dual wielding procs has been phased out. All tanks use shields, hate foci, hate abilities, and procs. EQ didn't end when you stopped playing it. Seeing as how this is custom, we may as well ask for the eventual...

Post on the forums. I can't tell them when snares are good enough. They seem flexible and receptive to constructive criticism. If they can tone down melee swing hate I may be able to hold aggro with weaker stuns. We have to balance around the outlier, and they haven't responded to my...

Swing hate is still ridiculous, and nukes are still super light. So rogues, zerkers, and monks are basically hate machines while my wizard can piledrive shit without any attention. Of course warriors have a decent chance of holding aggro off of pure melee because their hate is primarily swing...

Rogues may need help. They are virtually non-existent, and I don't know why. I'll make one eventually. We need parses from the parse zone to demonstrate how significant the imbalances are.

frogs are awesome

its an unholy union that should cost paladins their slay undead AAs

Substantially more. Add a zero.

Taunt has virtually nothing to do with it. Knights have rarely had to rely on that button to succeed. My hate per second is dogshit. The problem is knight spells don't generate even 1/5 of the hate they should. Historically I could cycle stuns on a new mob across the room to peel them (or...

The "unless they dot" is for our side, not when they dot Agraza. Those don't bother me at all. DoTs do ENORMOUS amounts of threat from sham/dru/nec at least. My shaman gets chain summoned just for clicking her epic and using bane of nife. The DPS is like 1/5 of my paladins's, but even so.

Plenty of shit in WoW like that. I have people that still talk to me about Nef rushes (AQ), M'uru kills, bear runs, Immortal runs, Yogg kills, etc. They talk about other shit that I'm not familiar with as well since I've quit a while back. WoW funnels everyone into raiding and makes raiding...

I'm the "knights suck" voice on Hoshkar, the paladin that can't hold aggro on anything at all while warriors are fucking electro-magnets of single target hate. We had a warrior in VP the next night, and it was such a glorious difference. Fucking SNAP aggro on warriors man. This is fubar...

Doesn't really make sense. There is an XP bonus that kicks in at 4 people. Those people suck.

Zaide said to take an SS of Gore. I forgot on the other kills. Also slept through the VP appointment like a boss. We did kill gore, fay, and venril again in the evening after I logged in. I also didn't SS them. I'm great about not taking pictures of anything. Gore Kill.

we tried invis pulling drusella sathir, and it didn't work. I didn't check if her friends see invis, but merkk claimed this worked on p99.

look forward to seeing you again

CoM->KC->Seb. Some say don't even do Seb. It has a lot of wizards and higher HP, but such good loot. CoM will make you rich as fuck. Golems drop gems almost every time. KC can take you to 60, but a few mobs will go grey, and you'll have to pull or crawl in larger circles as your power...

Lies, my newfound box crew is still developing the VP key. I spent all of yesterday in chardok and only got 2 staves for my guests. wtf? suddenly none of these mobs has one.

bow of the destroyer is irrelevant. max bow haste + autofire delay (capped at like 2.0) vs. spamming the ranged attack barely come out any different due to lag. if you autofire the destroyer it removes any point of having it, and spamming ranged atk is gay as all hell. Just get any decent...

Product placement doesn't bother me at all. It bothers me more when they all use some non-existant generic brand. That sticks out b/c it's obviously fake. Coke cans are ubiquitous, and characters should be able to drink a fucking coke.

my wizard has the vox cloak

you can assign hotkeys to open as many as 4, perhaps more. I use 3 on the paladin and 2 on the boxes. my hotkeys are usually plays on H, shift H, alt H, ctrl H, etc.

You should do the custom west freeport. get flowing thought 2 bracer on both of them. some other items drop there too, priests get spell haste gloves. if you can handle veksar you can handle that zone. it can be kinda rapey. also it uses luclin graphics, so it can be kinda laggy too if...

Not sure bout chanter, but I've seen druid charm break early. I'm not convinced it is fixed duration. I think it's just the way resist checks are being done here. I never get partial resists on the wizard. If a mob doesnt have like 200 MR (Vox, Black Reavers, Kirak Vil), you can land pretty...

Melee, especially warriors, can keep going long after that wizard is oom, and they can break up their damage into big and little pieces as well as move while doing damage. Wizards are stationary, with non-granular attacks, and a finite resource pool from which to inflict them. And those crits...
