One of the best feelings in EQ is when you join a group with a maniac puller pushing the group to the brink. Conversely, one of the worst feelings is when you arrive at camp and discover the puller is a meandering boomer dipshit who never chains and thinks he needs to FD split 3 mobs.

Absolutely. Whenever I come across an EQ post on the MMORPG subreddit, I swear half the posts are, "I'd play this if it weren't for ancient graphics/UI"

Sheesh. I hope that Faceless cameo is bait. The plan is to get RI to respond with someone you merely...don't have to google. Then Faceless flies in off the top rope with Alec Baldwin.

I was one of those clueless naive normies on Mangler, which was the first TLP I really got into. A guildie once mentioned how he could tell if something was up and even what weapon it was holding. He was like, "there are ways!" making it sound all mysterious. I figured it took leet haxor skillz...

Last June one of my mischief friends logged into a live server, used MQ2, and a week or two later his accounts caught a 1 week. I don't know what he used it for specifically.

Yes, SEQ is good for general awareness. Like knowing where Talendor is when you're farming in skyfire. Or to avoid being that retard who dies trying to get to the raid.

Ruin seems a bit over dramatic. Not like the classic content won't be there. Classic has already been shortened to a month (which seems to have near a 100% approval rating in the community) so a kunark launch does feel kind of inevitable. I think you're in the minority. Bigger world, iksars...

I knew they were on Quarm! Too bad they run too hot for Twitch. Quarm streams would be hilarious.

Right? If they're not dead or in jail, they must be playing here.

My one burning question is has anyone encountered the Ryan & Sean twins yet?

I heard all the Melody of Mischief accounts that participated in the DZ exploiting got suspended today. Lol. Gangster move by Darkpaw.

You're right. I remember someone causing an AoC snafu on Aradune during Velious. We were planning to split Zlandicar or something. Guy accidentally requested the DZ while the raid was still combined and everyone got the 6.5 day replay lockout. Per a quick google search, 30min replay timers were...

AFAIK The main reason for this change was to get rid of OOG cheese pulling (OOG puller could train his group with a rare plus gobs of mobs, /yell the rare, FD) It also is a huge QoL change for Joe Casual trying to powerlevel boxes or buddies with his druid, or for any group who wants to add OOG...

Where did I mention or bring up the company as a whole? Do you believe "one or a few employees" have a secret business arrangement with cheaters?

None? The pilled retardery on this forum eclipses anything I've seen on the official forums.

Yeah totally bro. Middle aged, ponytailed programmers are making secret organized crime style alliances with chinese dudes in Chengdu internet cafes and risking their jobs for a couple extra krono a month. It's so obvious, I run surveillance on these crews around the clock and anyone who...

Boy I feel dumb watching those FTE battles. I need director's commentary because I can't figure out what the hell is going on.

I think charm is balanced pretty well in group play from Omens - SoF (the furthest I've gotten). Gates is the worst since pretty much everything is immune to charm past tipt/vxed. They took a much better direction in Omens which is basically: go ahead and charm anything anywhere except the...

Magician Shock of Many got fixed in the new test patch. Really happy to see that. Getting gutted the day before SoF launched was such a dick kick.

Nice get! Been really enjoying your pods btw. As someone who didn't touch this game from like 2002-2018, didn't follow it, didn't know even know about p99 or TLPS until 2018 - it's really cool hearing these oral histories of EQ during that time. Should also be fun hearing stories about the...

Also an FYI in case you don't know, I believe keying requirements have been removed from Anguish. I'm almost certain you don't need the signets, but you might still need a backflag or the trials to loot stuff? Someone here should know for sure.

first char to max should give 20-25%. Some of the evolving bonuses take too long to evolve as well. 25% loot bonus in kunark, then it doesn’t “evolve” again until TSS? Dumb.

Why were they so concerned with running it away, keeping the puller's health low etc? I take it there's ways to peel mobs off people who already have FTE lock?

Along with their dignity.

I'd be desperate too if I was getting cucked by a guild named Golden Roosters.

The heirloom + exp bonus perks seem directly targeted at the Classic - PoP recyclers who either (A) raid hardcore and burn out or (B) piddle around and level like 5 alts on one account. Once the AA grind hits, who the hell is gonna keep up with multiple alts on one account? Keeping ONE...

I run SK/Enc/Clr/Mag on Mischief. Started at launch and still playing the same crew. Charming is absolutely doable, especially with a cleric. I put the charm pet in xtar 1 on the enchanter & cleric. Then set up a *stun/tash/charm macro on the enchanter and a stun macro on the cleric. Keeping...

You mean like a 5AM EST start time? I don't know of any. My guild, Dead of Night, raids Tues/Thurs from 11:30PM - 3AM EST. LMK if that interests you. Lemmings Unbound and Primeval Might are Euro/day time and start around like 12-1PM EST I think.

I think it's worth coming back. I'm still playing the shit out of Mischief. AA's have been autogranted up to PoP. So any AA's you spent on abiities/ranks that unlocked with GoD or OOW aren't pointless yet. You'll also get any Luclin-PoP AA's you didn't buy. (GoD AA's get autogranted when SoF...

I was hoping the dick measuring contest between everybody's guys would heat up this week. So far so good. Keep it going plz!

This is the guess that best fits the clues. An experiment that's never really been done before that could work on live as well. It's also a common feature for modern MMO's afaik (only other "MMO" I've no-lifed is Destiny where everything scales), and it seems that's the direction JChan wants...

That would be a pretty big reverse course considering they just nerfed XP in DZ's to discourage grinding in them. Not to mention instanced content has been around since LDON. And post-OOW there is quite a bit of group content that is task-based and instanced, so that doesn't fit the...

fuuuuuuuck I can't wait till tomorrow!!!1

Something brand new, some of which could be implemented on live... Sounds gameplay/sandbox related. Scalable group content? Maybe tuning raid content to be doable by much smaller forces, and capping raids at like 12/24/30 instead of 54/72 - to make it more in line with other MMOs?

Damn. I should have gone on record thinking the background was a T-shirt. But that was the easiest thing to guess.

Mischief was announced first. Thornblade was tacked on as a spillover server. So Thornblade has always played second fiddle to Mischief. I found this thread and going by a quick count, as of September 2021, Mischief guilds outnumbered Thornblade 17-9: Old guild list I wanna say Thornblade...

So I'm guessing from the way the EQ Show teased the JChan interview, JChan is going to reveal details about the ruleset in her interview in the next EQShow, which will be tied to the anniversary event.

The only one I know of is/was Lynuga. Something along the lines of you gave her 2 rubies, she'd give you back both rubies plus the quest rewards which vendor for a good amount of plat. You could charm her, take her to a vendor, and turn in rubies ad infinitum for Ivandyr's and vendor plat. A...

And based on a quick google search, Mischief was announced on 4/26. probably just one of those weird autsy EQ forum shitposts.
