A couple of good groups and it should be fine. 1 tank is all you need with good CC. I box 24 so it's complete overkill for me.

The fishlord event drives me nuts - I farm it with my crew on Rizlona because it has good drops for slots that I'm still lacking after farming VT(caster ears, caster belts, etc) - but I really can't stand spamming the server with kill messages every 5 minutes.

Just worry about leveling - no one plays a rogue so Plane of Hate armor will be rotting in OW constantly and you should get a full set in a few hours.

On behalf of Rizlona I would like to thank Aradune for giving us the drama that we don't want on our server, but still so desperately want to read about during the monthly patch day.

This thread makes me so happy I'm on Rizlona. Chillest server I've ever played on.

You can.

I got all 24 of mine keyed in a combo of DZ+OW in about 6 hours. It was great.

Can someone give me the definitive word on this - Is the Carprin Cycle "key"(flag) needed for PoP progression, or is a guild able to take 72 into CoD, get 36 keys, and /corpse the other 36 into Bertoxx's room without messing up progression?

Sometimes I wonder if people on these boards actually want a new and good MMO to come out, or if they just want to complain that all the ones in development suck.

Fun story - the guild leader of Mirage(the guy who made all these videos) is Katsuhiro Harada. He's the director of the Tekken games.

DW said in the EQ Discord they took it down because it's an exploit and the information shouldn't be publicly available, but the team is aware of the issue.

So how is Mandalorian doing, anyway?

Gotcha. That makes sense. Does anyone have available parses/HP on any of the raid content in Luclin? I'd be interested to see what it compares to live.

The "DT" is called Touch of Vinitras, and iirc the only other mob that casts it is Shei in Akheva.

With Luclin dropping tomorrow I had a question on MOTM mobs - I know that the HP on raid bosses with MOTM are upped from their original values, but is there a specific formula for this? I know that Naggy/Vox in classic went from 32k -> ~100k(that's what I parse now in Velious anyway), and AoW...

Depends on if you jerk off to spaceships.

Not sure if Microsoft accepts krono yet.

Rizlona has been interesting the last couple of weeks. Tons of big boxers getting banned/suspended. Some for doing nefarious things, others for seemingly just being AFK(not even pulling mobs, running anywhere, etc). It would appear the GMs are on a war path. Ex(not me): OW mobs used to be...

Lady Nev takes like 40 minutes in Velious and has a consistent AE. So it does do a tiny bit of help in terms of not having to pop out as much for heals.

Or the MQ2 community.

The guy in charge of the project, Shawn Lord(who was an ex EQ dev) regularly streams him working on the game on Twitch. It's nothing really new that's being "shared" if you watch the streams at all. They try to be incredibly upfront and transparent about what they're doing in order to get...

Oh it's like this one!

If a game still has 50k subscribers split up into 2 servers, rather than 400k players being split into 16 servers then what's the real difference?

I don't think there will be a 15m+ subscriber MMO again, but I disagree that the era of the MMORPG is over. In fact, I think we'll see a lot more MMOs start to sprout up over the next 5 years, but they will be more niche games, with lower development costs, aimed a specific audience.

It's like if a Halfling went to Burning Man. I like it.

The memory of this happening so much still hurts :(

In terms of time I'd say they're comparable since you have to do both shards and Emp key, but I just wasn't willing to do VP keying due to the lack of quality loot.

I skipped VP keying, but I'm not excited about getting 18 VT keys for my guys on Rizlona.

Shawn(alovingrobot) talks about the guide/GM turnover a fair bit on his Twitch stream. They used to fire guides and GMs at the drop of a hat. He tells a story that one GM was getting reprimanded in front of others and another GM had a quick out loud laugh about it - they immediately fired the...

I thought LDoN group instancing was really good because it basically saved "pick up groups" in EQ. Sure you could get PUGs during PoP but grouping was becoming much more gear-centric. The nice part about LDoN was that it allowed people who were in PoTime to group with someone in just bazaar...

bro I dont need that aggro as a ranger

I just want a game that lets me put 2 lammys, a fungi and cowl of mortality on a lvl 1 ranger.

So I'm looking for something new to play until Velious opens on Rizlona - is this worth it right now, or is it too buggy being in early access?

This is one of my favorite encounters for so many reasons. It was different than most other fights, Emperor was a beast and that 4K DD was such a pain. The room was so cool to go inside and see for the first time. It took SO MUCH work to get a guild fully keyed for that encounter, and it felt...

While there were certainly more complex encounters than that, most of the time they could really just be broken down into independent groups doing their own thing. The Emperor Ssraeshza encounter is a good example. While there is more going on than just CH rot on the tank(and rune for the 4K...

Actually North Freeport is still in the game. IIRC the way to reach it is to get all 4 of the Human Heritage Crate teleportation items. You then get the 5th one that sends you to old N. Freeport. Prathun also alluded to it in a forum post a couple of years back.

I got the VGO emulator up and running. It's so cool to be able to just run around and explore.

Every time I come back to EQ it makes me realize how much of my brain is just storing old, pointless EQ knowledge from when I was a kid. No, I can't remember what you said on that conference call 20 minutes ago - but you better fucking believe I can run to Yelinak with my eyes closed.
