Much like the cheese you eat, cheese spells require a certain amount of time to age before they're at their tastiest.

It's all about the timing. When you walk out from a switch, do you immediately walk back in? No. Same with many spell effects.

Fighting mentalists scares the heck outta me, for just that reason. (vokers too, tho I have a bit better luck with them usually)

No.

At the expense of % per hour. When grouped, my %rate goes to hell.
Back when I did the grind as nek, I grouped (a lot) only to keep sane.

Now I should have thought of that.

So, I haven't been bored enough to test this definitively, mainly because regening moves is such a pain. Once load reaches a certain point, somewhere below very light, it seems like the lighter you get, the more mvs you consume per step. For example, sometimes I can make a run - TP to Bloodstone may...

Jeez Tef, do you have to go Jack Handy on shopping?

And the body heat, and the fact that we're still "human" in most aspects.

I read it differently. To each his own. Sad thing is, I don't even disagree with you (and others) on many of the game related things you post. It's all in the presentation. But, I've already said what I had to say elsewhere. No point kicking that ranger anymore, so... See ya in-game. -Nek.

This is 2nd hand, but I think quite reliable.

They were able to mow down spirit raven w...

In my opinion, no it isn't. Not at all. Granted, there are long standing issues that need to be resolved. Time and money. (or negating money, time and motivation) Changes are being made. What IS obvious is that the very people who will be doing the work, are losing the motivation. Driving the worker...

Ragorn -
If vinegar looked like that, there'd be far fewer pissed off gods, IMO.

You could make a pretty tasty salad dressing with vinegar of that quality.

Dammit, now I'm hungry.

What I would like to see is a volunteer base of players that truly know the game's mechanics and just how twinkable eq is, then have this group of players (lilithelle, dartan, sarell, and the others who lead a lot) have a group opinion of what stats should be set at. Then give proposal to da boss. ...

*sigh* knee jerk reaction after drafting, then killing a response to one of the bitch fests.

Seriously, isn't it obvious yet that you don't have to be a dick to show that you're unhappy about something?

Just a counterpoint: -90AC and ~20/~20 is hardly 'newbie mage.' A newbie mage will be more like ~3~3 (+- a few), AC well above 0, and no hp to speak of. 3-4 hours to level 10 is not going to happen, as they spend all of their time meming back junk offense and sleeping to heal. They have to nuke for ...

I always took the pet crumble on raise as a 'system shock' failure, or something similar. Just a saving throw gone bad. Generally it's an annoyance.

Note the sources of the quotes. Once the typo's are fixed, those quotes do give reasonable looking hits on google, tho the sites I browsed are pro dubya in the extreme.

Tools? Sounds sweet..
Sometimes I feel.. ineffectual... when I would prefer to go to someone who needs help and they're literally a world away. Logging an alt w/ relo isn't much of an option when you've just finished building an army of pets.

Here's hoping this helps... Thanks.

As Eilistraee said, Prot Undead has a PfU side effect. It is however not full strength with regard to the "avoiding aggro's" effect. I know, but cannot post the strength, as I believe it was said in confidence while helping debug the spell. This drives me nuts. I can protect an entire group from <50...

So, Azerost, I see yer at the start of the pile. How'd that living rot work out? :P Azerost group-says 'Oh god, scale me please. Casting Rot....' Azerost completes his spell. Azerost group-says 'Ouch. Oof. Crap. Dang. That's gonna leave a mark.' Azerost is dead. R.I.P. (again) Something like that?

There is a bit of a difference between ponding EQ, and making it harder to loot.

Then again, gods weren't well known for their rationality then/there.
