Oh yeah, I like that idea, I'd be 100% in for that kind of server. The only question would be when the top guild gets any sleep. I'm thinking the first real gearing roadblock will be Tacvi. You'll have people living in Qvic for a bit and raiding Time on lockout. Could see our high end raiders...

I dunno about all that, I'm just thinking of "fun event server" ideas. Gaining one level every day (or more accurately, gaining 0.01%, then capping the following level) would be a fun endeavor that I could keep up with. Having the exp rates at 2000 levels would mean it'd take all day to get...

How about a four-month event server where the level cap starts at 1 and goes up by 1 every day. That'd be an interesting experiment, just to see what people do and how they handle the whole thing. I'd like to see them try this next year as one of the two TLPs. Four months in, the cap is 120...

Was thinking that, then went with SRO because I never see SGs up in NRO. But now that I think about it, SGs are probably a lot more available on here than usual. Another cool thing about the undead ruins is that nothing runs away, so an SG can just plop right down there. I might have to try...

-Get level 11 -Charm Sand Giant -Sic it on rapid-respawning orcs around northeast oasis -Ding 20 in an hour This server is so bizarre

ANNNNND TIME. Gonna add up everyone's points and post the winners this week.

The ones I linked above? Which ones are the worst? I'm gonna try to do all of them, with the worst last. Coulda probably wiped out some of them yesterday instead of trying to get a haste belt for six hours, man I'm so bitter about that It blows my mind that they aren't doing a level 45 raise...

Alternatively, instead of doing the mask quest above for Spell Haste II, healers can do these two: Fine Antique Corset Fine Antique Veil Which get you an Improved Healing II mask and a Spell Haste II belt. Non-healers can just do the Fine Cut mask from the previous post to get Spell Haste II...

Some quests worth doing for what may or may not be BIS all/all non-visible items: Fine Cut, Diamond-Inlaid Mask Fine Antique Ring Lucky Miner's Gorget and Sooty Miner's Cloak Glowing Magma Ring and Intricate Tool Belt Fine Antique Velvet Rose

Yeah, charm-kill (or pet-kite) anything in Natimbi with "rare creature" in its bio. Lots of 40 HEM gear there which is beyond most available stuff. Most of it seems to be for casters, though, and once you collect 'em all there isn't much else to do there. LDONs are the most useful they've ever...

Yeah GW2 is another one I missed and it'd definitely be on our big MMO list but it's already got too many things on it. We had Tera and Aion on there too and dropped those. I don't know what BR is going after next, but I will say that the group-gearing strategy on Vaniki at 40 = LDONs and...

Faceless sighting at 28:18

Could see Punk/Wardlow happening at Full Gear, in a sort of echo of Punk/Ryback in 2013 where it felt like neither guy could lose. In that situation I think it'd be more likely for MJF to show up during the match (after being unseen for 5 months) and take out both of them with a weapon, then...

"Daddy Magic" Matt Menard is the fucking bomb. I don't know. MJF could get released this week and it'd make just as much sense as if he came out and weaseled his way into a world title match. Nobody knows what's going on. He is, if you will, a loose cannon.

In other news, aren't we supposed to be having a named bonus? I sat in Frenzy room for six entire hours killing all the PHes with no interruptions and got zero nameds. Holy shit. Kind of pissed that I spent half of Memorial Day on this.

Yeah, one of my EQ regrets is not playing Agnarr with Faceless. That server was sorta its own universe. Did get to 65 on there and do some stuff, but not until like well after the server had died down.

I liked this one a lot, as a Souls guy. I didn't find it bland as much as "oppressively gloomy" and that particular moodiness actually added a lot to it for me.

I usually feel the same way actually, like I'm either all-in or just don't have time for it. Half-assing or barely being on just makes me not want to show up. Lately I've taken a slightly different stance on it though. I used to play MMOs a lot with my mom in the early 2000's when I was a...

Do you know de wey?

How's SK for that? I dunno about boss-killing, really just want to see the zones. Is Kerafyrm in this as like a fight-able raid boss? Is the story that he wrecked the world, or was it the Plane of Time shenanigans? I think I even read speculation somewhere about the Muramites being the thing...

So pet pulling is fixed/nerfed/no more? Sounds like what I was doing wrong was not being out of LOS. Or maybe I didn't try it until after it was fixed. Sucks because earlier I was soloing in Guk with a mid-30's SK and it was tough to handle more than one mob at a time, pet pulling would have...

Fired this up, Iksar SK in Neriak (Darklight Woods?) Had a really tough choice between that and Sarnak / Gorowyn. Curious about that place since it's in later EQ1 and I'd like to compare. Had to be Iksar though. I'll make my way there later I guess. I like that this is attached to EQ and has...

Got it to work right in time for the Hookhausen deal. I guess a lot of people were having issues with BR Live cause they mentioned it on the show. I thought the whole thing was great. It's weird cause usually I get fatigued midway through the usual 3-4 hour AEW PPVs. Here, I didn't, even though...

Can someone explain pet pulling to me? It's one thing that I've never understood or gotten to work myself. I've done the traditional pet-pulling methods and just end up pulling a train as if I'd pulled normally.

This MJF stuff is interesting enough for me to watch DoN live (was going to just check it out tomorrow or something) since there's an "anything can happen" vibe and a lot of questions about what's a work and what isn't. Unfortunately, BR Live is my only option to order the show, and BR Live is...

Yeah, I'm enjoying just casual-grinding up an SK while doing other things, after the launch rush of going hard as enchanter. SK is always an interesting time. Never really tried EQ2 but I might run an SK on EQ2's TLE (or a normal server IDK) after this to compare the two.

Yeah, color stuns don't work on Vaniki. Protip for enchanters, get Entrancing Lights (which is unlocked on here cuz GoD start) and use that the same way you'd use a color stun. Ideal for getting something recharmed after a break.

Yeah, there's also that. Charm is breaking a LOT in general and it's super annoying. So you might as well go for a red mob instead of a blue mob because they're all gonna break way more than you want them to. And going too high is a quick way to go splat.

Not really. I was timing charm breaks in Gunthak and getting the same amount of breaks on mobs 6-7 levels higher than me as I was on 2-3 levels below. Either that was some super weird RNG or there isn't too huge of a difference.

Charm pets do most of the work (and also break frequently). As long as enchanters don't all take a nap at once, that's doing a ton of DPS. Other than that it's a lot of bind rushing. Rethinking playing an SK on this server because tanks have a pretty shitty job overall, at least for now.

Server-first MOTM boss kill (Vindi) And Statue God Help Us

Yeah, I like this idea of having a bunch of people doing co-op. Would like to see 6-person co-op where the boss stats just keep getting adjusted upwards. Hell, do 12-person co-op, it'll be like a raid fight. Stagger-able bosses will be dirt easy though.

That's like me with Malenia, I keep going back to that sword even when I try other weapons for a while. So many good options and all of them are fun for an hour or two, then I default back to Malenia.

Anyone else finding that the Vaniki krono market is super-dead? Went to buy kronos on day 3 and got nada for responses then or any time since. Saw a few for sale in Baz for way more than they usually go for at the beginning of a server. The krono market on Mischief and Aradune was BUSTLING a...

Well, I didn't get to Resident Evil 1, Cuphead, FNAF5 or Nuka-World, but other than those I finished pretty much everything on the backlog that was nagging at me (i.e. not the really good things that I'm looking forward to). For my last game of this run I fired up Far Cry: Blood Dragon (PS4...

Found something interesting. One of the main Mandela Effects seems to be that people remember "No Luke, I am your father" when it's just "No, I am your father". The latter is definitely the case in modern releases of the movie, but now I'm wondering if the original theater run really was what...

And also Xenogears and Final Fantasy Tactics. It doesn't get any better than that. I've got the EQ big boxes for Classic through Luclin, then took a break, then have GoD through SoF. I love the SoF box with Big Bynn firing a laser into the sky. I have the poster of that image as well somewhere...

Yeah, I slow-rolled my way through the tutorial earlier just to finally do that zone, and it was bustling with tons of people the entire time. Not bad at all for two days after server-up. Sounded like a lot of new people too which is super-weird for EQ. Yeah, I was manhandling higher mobs with...
