(This is for tanking in a group) Did anyone try war/clr/ber at mid/higher levels? I wanted mnk instead of ber, but my carpal tunnel says no. Will ber get a lot of button presses? I considered rog but I read it also had a very active play style.

I'd also prefer sk instead of war but I'm worried he will suck mana from the clr healing. Any opinions about that? So many questions but it will take a long time levelling all up to see how they work at mid levels.

Edit: btw, I don't plan to be in berserker stance, I am taking one of the damage reduction stances.

What is active about monk and rogue? You can auto skill the abilities, so not sure what you're pressing that is causing you problems? Go into ability window (L?) and check the autoskill box for all the stuff you actually use... Problem solved. Also one bonus of SK over warrior is you get a much larger mana pool with a second mana using class over 2 pure melee. Dunno if it's better though, only player war/rog/dru so far

Never heard about auto skill, I'm mostly from '99. I'll check it out!

Personal instances fixed today?

Starting to see the streamers talk shit about the bait and switch of loadout slots, tradeskill bank, Dragon Hoard bank, and key ring.

I have such massively high hopes to enjoy this version of EQ as my final ever play of it. But, Game Jawn & Daybreak are going to lose 90%+ of their customers if they keep this shit up.
What makes it worse are the white knighters in chat claiming they're having no issues with instances despite everyone else saying they don't work at all. Those idiots need to stop making excuses for the devs who said this shit would fucking work. Instances were a primary selling point for the server, and if they don't work the server is DOA.

When I tried to make an instance it looked fine. Didn't kill anything but it was filled with mobs. But group instances don't work at all. Which sucks big time.

I stayed optimistic as the closed beta looked great. Open beta is clearly moving in the wrong direction, at the moment.
Only 3 days in. And this is like 20x the population they ever got in closed beta. The changes to hoard/depot/loadouts are shitty though.

Secrets and co were blaming Daybreak essentially for the instances being fubar all day yesterday.

Hopefully the streamers keep the heat on. If they want people to play more than a month, all that shit can't be paywalled. They also put the one character limit in so they could paywall that stuff to try to get you purchase their paywall shit. If the game was F2P, I could live with it, but not when there is a monthly sub. They are trying to have their cake and eat it too.

I have a friend who would play but won't even bother trying it for a month with non-cosmetic stuff being paywalled.

I’m not worried about technical issues, it’s the game nerfs requiring purchases that bug me.

I didn't have problems with instances until this morning and they dont work for me now. Game is actually fun and I'm enjoying it but this cash shop shit is going to ruin it for me if it's must have stuff to make the game enjoyable at the end game. Right now it's not noticeable at level 15 but that always changes and you get higher level.

Nearly one thousand viewers on twitch watching this yesterday. I never would have imagined those kind of numbers could be pulled.

Day 1 we had a few problems with instancing and specifically people being able to join group instances in Befallen. Since then I've used multiplayer, single player, respawning and non-respawning and they've all worked. I think certain hot zones like Befallen/Najena are having zone corruption issues or something as we've had our instances fail there while we were in them several times. Also you can check /pick sometimes and entire difficulties are missing so you'll have zones for 0, 1, 2, and 4. No Difficulty 3.

Game so far is better than I expected. Exaltations make gearing a lot more comfy, especially for spell casters.

2 Loadouts is absolutely unnaceptable and I suspect this is them giving us the bare minimum to see where they can raise the floor enough to make people not revolt while still being able to sell more loadout slots in the store. I think 6 is a reasonable number and they could sell bundles of 6 or whatever at HOPEFULLY sane price for people who need more. Right now 2 is just absolutely silly and makes the primary class unlock thing almost not necessary as you'd never need to unlock more than one more class.

The temp storage for class loadout shit is probably only 25 because you only have two characters. I'm guessing there's a multiplier per loadout when/if we get more.

Dragonhoard storage is something I personally don't have trouble with them selling for more space. That's how it is in TLP's and I don't find it mandatory until maybe the tradeskill revamps hit.

A lot of this stuff they pulled back could have just been a beta thing, like in some betas you can literally summon items to test for yourself, but the fact they didn't let us know is the problem. I'd bet money 2 Loadouts is not where they land for launch. I don't know if this is a marketing thing, a database thing, or what the fuck, but yeah, 2 Loadouts is unacceptable.

Otherwise the actual game right now looks/feels great. I'd maybe wait until the loadout stuff is settled for sure (they've unfortunately been completely silent on it which makes it all even worse) to recommend people who are on the fence about playing.

I think the instance problem is everyone creating the same instance. I couldn't create a befallen instance but I could do blackburrow. Maybe they need to add more servers to the popular zones for instances.
