Bro you really don't need to be rich to be a waste of carbon. The government will literally pay you to live your dream.
Get a mild tan and reinvent yourself as an undocumented immigrant from Venezuela. CA, CO, and MN will give you everything, including daughters to rape and murder.

The charm issue is overwhelmingly simple to fix. Right now an enchanter, or any charm class, can reliably keep a mob 3+ levels charmed. It only breaks on average every 2-3 minutes. Without getting into all the knock on effects, the issue can be addressed simply by making red con mobs much more resistant to charm, and yellow con somewhat more. People charming white and blue mobs are still strong but are not causing the issues

Over at the monk forums in 99/00 we mathed the fuck out of EQ until we actually understood what all the numbers did. Stats. Skill numbers. All the shit. We figured out the changing dmg/delay ratio for unarmed before the devs ever told us about that. And it was fun.
Heh, the h2h dmg/delay table on Monkly Business (& prior forums) was actually incorrect ironically enough.

IDK man, if I was rich I would spend my time no-lifing vidya games.
Yeah I imagine there’s two types of people no lifing MMOs and I know which one I think is more common

Because in 1999 charm breaks happened so frequently that groups BANNED the spell. Solo/duo it was ok, as you were only pissing off yourself / your friend.

Once Dire Charm hit the game however....

There's no way that's as widespread as you think. Don't ever remember groups banning any abilities, and wouldn't take them seriously if they tried

I remember multiple groups that got wiped when charms broke in the middle of pulls. At that point they said no more charms and continued to xp. Or broke up. Charm was one of those abilities. You had to build around it and plan for it, because the double edged sword was rather sharp.

I'd be surprised if it takes longer than 14-16 days for the first batch of 60s, and then the content lockdown begins.
I'm betting 7 days max, once everything gets figured out and leveling routes maximized. Unless they completely fuck over EXP rates/mob cons.

Gamma night times is my only gripe. Appears to continue in a very solid direction. I wonder what excuse they'll make for day blindness for the deep races. Something something broke muh compooter.
