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

    It's true. I've gained an appreciation for Lower Guk and what a well-designed zone it is in the last couple of years. It's very much an old school dungeon-crawl. I wish it were a bit more viable all the way up to 50. It's funny because I hated Lower Guk for like 17 years. I'd like to go...

    LGuk gets really slow in the early 40's. Trying to decide if I want to go to Hole or OOT next (couple more levels until Allure) because even killing Hamlord + Frenzy + Exe and locking down the entire floor isn't doing it anymore.

    Curious if there's anyone setting up an Araduneprogress site this time around.

    I'm surprised too. As far as I know Riz had a lot less of a problem with queues the last few days. Five hours for Aradune last night at peak.

    My group has had to deal with this a couple times. If someone crashes zoning (which is likely) they can't get back for 1-2 hours and fall behind on exp, and it's slowed down our progression. Still pretty far along despite that but it's irritating. IIRC in WoW if you lose your connection and...

    Launching multiple servers and merging them at Kunark is absolutely brilliant. Maybe Velious if there are still a lot of new characters being created at Kunark launch. The main issue I'd see with that is name overlap. Enchanter question if anyone knows the answer: If you give a 2H weapon to a...

    They totally just brought Cain in so that Brock could "get his win back". Same reason they brought back Batista for that terrible WM match last year, so HHH could get his win back. Probably also why they brought back Ultimate Warrior too, before his untimely demise. Notice how the following WM...

    Some name-jacking going on this time. There's a fake Atabishi running around, and a few other prominent guild leader names got swiped (possibly by friendlies, we'll see).

    Careful, the Rovival the Revolt aren't allowed to use that term any more. They should call themselves Cease & Desist at this point. Their names start with C and D, come to think of it...

    That's something else I didn't think of. Stun is HUGE in classic. You'll want to be able to stun mobs that cast CH or Gate. Snare is also very important for runners, and an earth pet covers that, so a cleric covering stuns would mean you don't have to worry about runners OR healers/gates. Shaman...

    Shamans are good for duoing with melee characters. Magician doesn't need a lot of the support that shaman provides. Cleric on the other hand can keep a tanking pet healed better in classic than a shaman can. Clr/Mag should be able to hold down a lot of different camps as a duo without too much...

    We should all write sternly-worded letters on the forums. There were 8 people in the game on Aradune when it first locked/queued, I hear, which is pretty comical if true.

    All in all this is a much better deal than the previous one. A single 40-slot bag will take a lot longer to be replaced than a 20-slot bag. You'll probably use the 40 slot bag all the way to live, while two 20-slot bags will get replaced around the level 100 expansions if you play that long. At...

    Similar problem: I usually wake up at 6 AM EST or so, and wanted to wake up at more like 1 PM today so I went to bed really late the last couple nights. I ended up sleeping from 5 AM to 10 AM this morning and not being able to get back to sleep, so I'm going to have a rough time either way...

    Are all of those items individually claimable, or are the packs individually claimable? Cause I could use the 40-slot bag and the tradeskill pot on Phinny and everything else on the new server. Was going to buy some exp/sow/clarity pots anyway. In my TLP experience 40 slots (or 2x20 in this...

    For the any other class I'd definitely go with a port class. Since SK can snare, probably wizard.

    On the other hand those two can be downed pre-46. I believe they've been killed with raids around level 40 by people on this thread before.

    Likely very similar. From what I've read, they're sticking to the same engine (UE4) for the whole FF7 series instead of switching to the UE5 engine that PS5 will probably support. The PS4 gen had a couple years where the games weren't a huge graphical leap because so many of them still used old...

    Lame, that takes Astral Leggings out of the equation for the time being. They'd actually be really useful in classic/kunark.

    Or you could drop two of those and a Resist Magic on the charm pet of somebody you don't like. The possibilities are endless!

    That's if you can get 'em without melee classes going ballistic. Sounds like something that would be fun for AA farming in Luclin with dire charm and that weapon not being in demand. Anyone remember when zones like Stonebrunt Mountains and Jaggedpine Forest become available? Technically they're...

    Out of the top three (and beyond) I'm hoping everyone's successful and we have some solid open world competition on here. Phinny is proof that more strong guilds = more server longevity.

    This is primo info. They're not lore, they lower MR, and it'd be easy to farm 'em both. The flint dagger is lore and in a tougher place to farm, so I can see people saving that for a rainy day (Jugg farming? Trak raid?). As for the chanter epic 1.0, it sounds highly unnecessary. Get VoG and...

    A few questions: Any must-have chanter items in classic or Kunark? Is the enc epic 1.0 worth doing? ...I mean, what else are you gonna do with all that time Can you pre-finish most of the enc epic 1.0 in classic like some other classes can with theirs?

    My thought of maybe doing an enc/dru duo is looking good on here. They cover each other's (few) weaknesses really well.

    Dune (2020)

    Huge Dune fan here and I don't want to see this. Media companies in the modern era have proven over and over that they can't handle remakes correctly without bastardizing them. You have your rare exception (Fury Road, which is more a reboot but yeah). Key word rare. I'm just tired of seeing...

    If you press the same button repeatedly on multiple computers (I think two suffices) all accounts present get booted out of the game (even a third account where you aren't pressing anything). The kicker is that this boot is immediate and completely removes you from the game, unlike /q or /ex...

    The interesting thing about Phinny and Selo reaching live is that it'll happen at almost the same time. We'll be able to compare the health of both at that point. Phinny being around a lot longer means you'd think it would have more entropy setting in with the population by then, but we'll see.

    Is there any UI with a targeting ring that spins? Always wanted a spinning target ring. Looks like chanter (my choice) is going to be the most-played class on this TLP, more or less one for every static. On Selo the same thing happened, I decided to go SK and it turned out to be one of, if not...

    One of the numerous things I had a problem with in this game. They rendered too many things pointless/moot, then threw paint all over the canvas by the endgame.

    Dark Elf for innate racial Hide, since it breaks charm without activating the global cooldown on recasting. EDIT: Someone already answered this above, oops.
