Abyss stays GOATed. More nerfs incoming? (Probably not)

"Uber" fights currently don't exist.

Yeah, the usual bad brains are the usual bad brains. Just ignore them (literally) and you'll have like 60% empty space in every EQ thread, but it'll be way more palatable. Not saying it'll be good, but it'll be better!

I mean, they can afford it, but they can't control themselves and blame everyone else for their weakness. They're also looking for ANY type of angle to get the "winning blow" in the argument against Secrets and Co/DPG, but they don't have one. There's small shit that's getting changed week to...

These retards still complaining about bags we don't even know are in the shop or not? Classic. To live in fear of the MTX Bogeyman, what a life for grown adult men.

Man they were pretty on the money with those patch notes. DR in Delirium was shit. Fighting 7 bosses in 32 sq ft rituals was shit. Wisps were annoying. All this is getting fixed. Still need some quest fixes and such, but maybe that'll get fixed with the Delirium patch coming. Just really...

I've watched What We Do In The Shadows which is more comedy than horror. It's like a comedy in a traditional horror setting IMO. I also watched Ash vs Evil Dead and I could see it being horror/comedy, but with Ash it's often so over the top it can't truly feel scary or tense.

I can tell some of you live in the suburbs and not a city. When the homeless man talking a mile a minute keeps yelling at you, you just ignore them, not try to debate them.

Just watched all the episodes this week. Pretty great show. Rhys is amazing and the actress playing Patricia is great too. And obviously Stephen Root is one of the TV show GOATs. The Bogeyman episode was probably my favorite so far. That actress just plays scared and frustrated at the same...

(yes)

GoW and most campaign style games are for dad gamers and stoners. They're after kids bedtime/work at footlocker games you sit there and mash minimal buttons and upgrade your gear to mash buttons slightly less. That's fine for people who like that, but they're just a smidge above those full...

Some of us like to pretend this is a gaming forum and not a Stormfront Early Retirement Home. We're just delusional like that.

Certain passives are locked behind a step in the questline. You probably haven't killed the correct the boss yet to access that passive point. Once you've done it all you should be able to allocate any point.

The graphics may successfully filter out some of the more crotchety old farts and bring in younger blood whereas MnM I feel does the opposite. MnM appeals to the shit graphics that were peak in EQ's early days but are extremely dated now, and these graphics are just a style of graphics which is...

Believe they said Blackburrow is next on the revamp list, which is cool as a Qeynos nostalgia haver, but they better add about 20 named because there's I think 2 or so in the entire zone. I'm not sure there were more than 3 camps either and one of them was like 4 giant snakes for half elf...

Yeah, 80% of the people bitching and being retards are going to be playing within the first week. They'll move some goalposts, make some excuses, but mostly they're just loud retards who wanted updoots from other retards in their EQ autist community to feel cool because they're 48 years old.

Trials CAN be fun when you get decent relics for 75% resist and max honor. Even then you can get absolutely fucked if you can't see enough rooms ahead and brick your whole run. If you're not going for a no-hit it's pretty trivial with good movement speed/shield block. I ran a few for fun last...

It's ALSO one month included at the $20 price. That's pretty good deal for buyers. I think they're going to be scrambling at month 2 though to add more content if they don't have some new stuff lined up quick. Still if they get 5k purchases at $20 that's probably a decent surge in revenue for...

The unaffected by chilled ground passive doesn't work. Still get chilled, still get slowed even though it doesn't show your character sheet change either way, but you ARE slower. Hopefully they fix that. This patch has been HUGE in terms of all sorts of shit, but also buggy as fuck. Like...

People in EQ are pretty much known for starting over completely ever X years/months.

Weird class choices there. Ranger for mages seems really strange, but PALADIN for enchanter pet? Holy that's crazy. Like is it going to heal you? Does it have LoH? Is it supposed to tank as one of the worst controlled pets in the game? Will it compete with charm pets? Strange stuff.

I think it's been said a lot over the past 8 months or so, but they just have a bad power curve for the campaign. A lot of it is fixed by having access to second-run stuff like infinite supports and tier 5 supports and twink weapons, but it's just rough. Act 1 is the most punishing because you...

From patch notes just released:

This is a show that was made for a way worse actor and yet for some reason Colin Farrell is the star. Some of the acting is just like Tubi level bad by the other actors. The writing isn't particularly strong either, but I guess people will keep watching because of the overall "story".

Peak of 760 isn't bad, think there's a couple around 900 though. Obviously this is just steam and I doubt boxers run all their babbi pc's with steam AND you can legally multiclient on this server versus Teek which I think had like ~970. So probably overall pretty popular.

Mannn that sucks for the new Spirit Walker who gets penalized for using runes in gear instead of idols. Super funny that they added it THIS expac. Might be a tweak coming there as that just makes that perk a big no-no for this league and it's honestly probably needed to make any companion +...

Yeah I did a lot of different zone during early Velious. Chardok B was good if you did it around lvl 55. Veksar was good if you had slay undead because those mobs were up to 61. Hate2 was decent, but if you weren't assassinating those mobs had a fuck ton of hp. Funny enough, HTOV wings were...

Guess the Q&A with mark/jonathan/ghazzy/darth yesterday resulted in Jonathan getting them to add the ability to jewel orb item skills now. So you don't NEED a level 20 skill on an item which will be huge for getting a lot of builds rolling. You'd still want a level 20 for max dps and maybe...

Zone exp modifiers, mob density, item evolution, and the insane amount of AAs you needed to beat highest end content or to cap out your character. Crawling through Velks took twice the time for 1/2 the AA of DN AEs. Pet cucks killed slower than undead slayers, but you were still running mob to...

I did. Here where your options: You can AE a zone? AE a zone! or You can slay undead? You're either fucking around in Veksar at max level or living in Lguk at ~35! Wowwee! or You're a pet cuck. You can kill stuff easily and fast, but you either sit in a high-traffic place like Umbral...

So you either AE'd or You happened to be a pet character that then would have to leave their game running to get AA's, which was, funnily, against their terms and bannable. Not great options.

I stand corrected! It was hard to find for sure with their reddit posts and websites getting nuked. Also I found there were SOME items with +spellpower (like 5 to 10 and it seemed rare). The only example I could find a picture of was in the thread from that time of the summoned cleric lvl 50...

Don't worry, that probably makes up 70% of the actual EQ base and probably 90% of DPG's funding because they don't use kronos for their account and forget to turn off their credit card billing long after they quit.

Man reading through that thread is eye opening. You know why no one can compare Classic THJ to Classic EQL? It DIDN'T EXIST. Kunark was in at launch. You beat naggy+vox and you unlocked Kunark so there was a threshold, but there's literally no comparison. Also a lot of those posts are...

From the THJ thread: "THJ was just fun". This is the misremembering, rose-colored glasses, nostalgia for 1999 type brainfog that dooms this place.

Also I wonder if Runecrafting shit is crafting tagged. You do use a bench to do it at some point afaik. That could be an issue.

There's people who don't like EQL's choices, people who just want THJ 1:1 back, people who hate DPG, and people who hate life and are always miserable and must make people suffer as well. They're all present here. Some of those are fine, but are like weird boomertism culture war buttpussy hurt...

Yeah this is more or less what I figured. Seems they just added some RNG to the finishing of the items, but you can get fucked on RNG at the finishing steps and still have a pretty good item/item you can just sell with the new changes. It does seem weird they did the "crafted" modifier when it...
