    Ot had a horrifyingly terrible zem during selo, and I have no reason to assume it isnt still that way. Both loio and ot were nerfed into the dirt at some point. Com and hs were also totally shit on, in some separate act. All 4 of these zones just expect to be super disappointed. Kunark zones...

    Krono accounts with no real cc trail or bag purchases have been banned for warping, but I believe "real" accounts they basically just chain 3 week suspend. Some people I know spent more time banned than not, but it was never permanent bans on their mains. They reserve those for true scumbag...

    Hax are really useful so that you can become acclimated to playing with them and talking shit while playing with them and then being used to them to the point where you just dont even log in on patch days until new offsets drop because it'd be a horrific display of incompetence if you tried to...

    Almost every guild allows casuals or friends/family if you arent a toolbag or trying to score real loot. Everyone speeds to cap and all, but, tons of people do it at the same speed as you are talking about, and then theres often alts and late joiners. There will be casual group shit to do.

    Man I cant even imagine what it would sound like to be in comms with a group that actually dedicated real effort to hs keying and then finally gets in and sees how much xp the mobs give now.

    If you load a second account and invite them and then log them off, a lot of these work if you have the 3 or 6 in the group even offline. They can be 2 or 5 chars from the same 2nd account, even.

    They exist because people buy from them. If you still have tons of people who want to rmt, new bots or more evasive replacements will show up. If you want to stop rmt you have to hit the funding. They wont.

    If you want to stop the botters and rmters, you have to ban the people who cause them to exist, the buyers. There is going to be a pretty clear overlap between people who dump money on third party krono, pls, and gear, and people who purchase a lot of shit off the dbg store. Everquest is well...

    It would actually also fit with the aradune idea, in a roundabout way. Aradune released next to a non truebox server that also gave tacit permission to passive-only hack. This meant a lot of players were able to just box there and do their own thing while the mass boxers on aradune were just...

    Hi. They want to recapture the magic of aradune. Aradune saw massive numbers and those were likely also way heavier skewed non-boxes and I would guess better than normal per account for stuff like bags. I dont know how they don't understand that aradune was not a success due to its ruleset...

    Aradune was popular because it was full on covid lockdowns and unemployment plus promises of gm anti cheat enforcement. Tormax has neither helping it out. They could try something like making that one relaxed truebox from day 1, which I do think would give it a reasonable chance to be just low...

    Heal parses for clerics are often a measure of who is bad. For a ch chain, the longer you jerk off before pressing your button, the more time for the tank to take damage, so the higher your gross heal parse tends to be. Later on, its slightly better, but since renewal and hots arent reflected it...

    I would agree but you have 3 sks in your raid which is too many and obviously just intended to gear people for their nonraid boxing nonsense. One of them should be a 2nd paladin so you aren't screwed if your first paladin posts his dick on foh and then quits, or takes literally rotting tacvi...

    People undervalue rangers because people get stuck on hypothetical bests rather than whats reasonable and normal.

    If you have a necro or druid able to charm and undead or animal, you USUALLY want the enchanter to do the same. They can buff their pet and them the enc take it with an hour+ nec or druid buff.

    You only need 1 druid or necro to cast haste on a pet, then it can be handed off. But you also only need 1 enc to tash and mez or stun, and shit can be recharmed.
