yeah it shows everything that is spawned on the map and global zone targeting i think? it's really fucking handy.I have never used MQ2
What does the map even do show whats spawned?
I haven't used it in a few years though, don't want to pay for it or compile my own shit.

At launch people quested as much as possible to advance quickly doing repeatable quests. What changed is that killed exp on Phinny was terrible enough that optimizing quest exp was incentivized. The early levels really are a slog and yeah, people will engage in other mundane tasks to skip those mundane tasks. The fire beetle eye quest in Freeport has some weird math hidden in it and the instantly respawning multiple tri-spawn packs of fire beetles are the issue just like the instantly respawning packs of skeletons were an issue with the Kaladim bone chip quest. Nerfing all quest exp everywhere because of Paineel factor farming to fuel a couple specific quests that are/were themselves outliers is just awful.

In a game that is 16 years old, I don't see how this could not be welcomed by everyone. No one in their right mind gets on an alt and enjoys these exp rates, especially the players on this server who have done this time & time again. Luckily there is still time to boost with red wine!
Imagine we will get close to what double exp weekend rates were, which would be fucking amazing, yet still slower than RF & LJ. Actually have some drive to level alts!

Try using the lower level versions of Dot's. EQ has resist checks invisibly modified by casting lower level spells. It is one of the reasons casting undead charm in your fortys as a necro is actually useful. While at higher levels the charm is almost completely useless because the level of the charm and level of mobs you want to charm are so close.
By the way damn it on this experience change I was just about to bail on server and now I have to check the new rate.

I know the pic was from Befallen and a Rogue character.... but I think he was asking for a Mrylokar Dagger wasn't he? If those breadcrumbs help someone in their googlefu for the search - I failed personally.
