Ok so when you said "so you could of rested easy nagafen would hit you for 225 all fucking day. AoW was rolling quads 3k+ dmg non-slowable as fuck just like it was back in 2001." What DID you mean?
Did you mean that 225 and 3k were an attack and the total damage would be them added up? Or did you mean that nagafen hit for 225 per normal attack and could do much more in a single combat round while aows number in the very next sentence is now a totally different measurement and is the total of all his attacks in the round and you summed only the second number for some reason?
We can't read because you can't fucking write.
Ah yes my friend my fried I make good deal for you. i will help you with your english lessons. this is quite simple and easy to understand.
So when person A posts a question or makes a statement and person B then posts a response to that question or statement, you, the 3rd party, are required to read both Person A and Person B's words in order to understand this thing called "Context"
Person A implied that THJ made everquest soloable by reducing mob stats down to like moss snakes and that he couldn't play any version of everquest where raid mobs had been turned into marshmellows, and he stated it would feel to fake to him if he "fought Nagafen and he wasn't dealing a max hit of 225 damage"
Person B (me) then corrected person B's misconception, assuring him that they did not nerf mob stats, instead they buffed up player stats. the conversation concluded with what you quoted. "....so you could of rested easy nagafen would hit you for 225 all fucking day."
Notice this thing called a period at the end of that? Yeah we use those in English to denote the end of a sentence, the end of a single coherent thought.
Then a quite separate example was used to reinforce the previous sentence: "AoW was rolling quads 3k+ dmg non-slowable as fuck just like it was back in 2001."
Now this lexicon is quite nuanced and if you didnt play Everquest 25 years ago, its entirely possible that it doesn't make sense to you. I will break it down for you in as simple of terms as I can.
Everquest was a 3D interactive fantasy role playing game with roots from Multi-User Dungeons that grew out of pen and paper role playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons. In dungeons and dragons and early computer games that came after it, combat was divided into things called rounds and dice were rolled to determine the success or failure of hits. Now computer games didn't use dice but they did use algorithms and hit formulas to determine the outcome of an attack. And despite the fact that the computer did not keep track of attacks broken up into "rounds" in the way players thought of it, initially players used the terminology of rounds when discussing hit and damage calculations just out of habit mostly.
The simplest attack formula was a single swing to determine "hit, miss, parry, dodge, etc", a successful hit would trigger an additional calculation to determine the amount of damage dealt. (iirc these "rolls" were actually all combined into a single thing but i could be mistaken). As the game progressed both in levels as well as new content updates (expansions) additional skills unlocked which caused hit formulas to become more advanced, with skills such as dual wield allowing you to attack with a weapon in each hand and skills such as double attack allowing you to hit twice with each hand. This was the basis for the initial use of "quad" ie to hit 4 times. Later on things such as triple attack, flurries, etc were added.
Generally speaking though the chance for a successful hit was not guaranteed thus the chance to successfully connect with all 4 attacks was actually quite low, at least in the earlier parts of the game. By the velious era certain raid mobs such as Avatar of War had very high attack rating meaning that they did successfully connect, quite often in fact, with all 4 hits. Thus "AoW was rolling quads" meant he was hitting you successfully 4+ times. "3k+" the plus sign indicates this is not a specific number, but actually referring to a range, with a floor of 3k. this means "3k damage or more per round". "non-slowable as fuck" meant that the mob was immune to slow effects, meaning that his attack speed could not be increased so that he hit you any slower. Now, when you combine all these RPG/computer short hand phrases together into a single sentence, incorporating the previous english lesson where we explained what context was, it should read:
"AoW was hitting 4+ times successfully dealing a minimum of 3k+ dmg per round and because he was not slowable those hits were coming extremely quickly, thus he was an era accurate representation of the raid from 2001"
(someone else posted his attack speed of 1.7 which reinforces the swiftness of the attacks.)
Generally speaking, when you don't understand a reference to something, you could make an assumption, sure, but the moment the speaker corrects you that your assumption was wrong, then it is best to change your assumption and move on. Perhaps apologize for your mistake, but of course this is the internet so Instead you all have continued to double and triple down which is why i'm taking the time to explain english to you pajeets.
Pajeets, is a pejorative or slur, a racial slur, for you street shitting parasites who ruin every country you infect.
