    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    One thing interesting - not specific to EQ, but MnM - is Claude already translated the packets for me. Something it would take a human quite some time to do, it just did in a few minutes. Now, I would probably argue the MnM devs encryption on packets isn't up to snuff like EQ might be, but I...

    Hah that's great. And yeah we technically had two healers but they just tossed stuff out occasionally. I never saw my zombie go below 50% and that was after massive pulls. Guildies snake took literally like 0 damage

    Not judging as I've been in some serious crunches - but does anyone else work this much? Your boss maybe? In my opinion, just based on what you said, your team really needs better sprint planning and as @Control said you need to move less important things out if they're coming in like that...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Last night we started a really weird group and kind of just picked up whoever was around. No tanks at the time so it was just 2 necros, shaman, cleric, bst and bard. Bard was a fuckin maniac puller and we had 3 pets that could tank. They took like no damage and these were yellow/red cons. They...

    Very strangely I had an area of FP skellies all to myself today.

    He looked like he had somewhat decent gear for his level which was a big part, but the other tanks I've played with have been very spiky.

    Ah yeah I think this is probably part of the problem. Also sounds like you're working off hours too - what if you just stop doing that?

    There's a handful of us in the MnM thread that love EQ

    Yeah we used to have big problems with that. It took leadership taking a very hard stance on sprint planning here. Are you overworked because devs are pushing so many features ?

    By quick and medium are you saying tasks coming in beyond the scope of the sprint? Unplanned work? I've taken the stance at work that if extra stuff comes in it'll get scheduled for next sprint unless it is a literal emergency

    Well yeah if we fight undead I'll usually mezz one, then if there's another add I basically solo it with my skeleton. He can tank yellows pretty easily. Then of course I can fear as needed. I suppose I could pull if I stopped using DOTs because they chunk my mana. Like 95% of my time is...

    Playing on Dad time I know I can't keep up with most, and I'm ok with that. I really am enjoying the uphill battle. Soloing on necromancer is pretty piss easy now, just some of the areas are still quite jam packed even though the masses are more in the 30+ levels. Still I enjoy it. I group...
