    I'm okay with different. Everything crafted would probably just turn into crafting drops coming from bosses - that's not really better and/or different. Like getting all classes at once, new gear, new mechanics on bosses, new mobs and named. That's my kind of "different". Sadly we got people...

    I was having fun on the server until the legacy xp nonsense and now this. Not even angry just sad.

    It was pretty blatant with botters (not boxers) sitting at epic camps all night long & folks warping around. It wasn't the majority by any means, but it doesn't need to be. Watching a good chunk of the local "top guild" cope on the official EQ discord is also pretty hilarious.

    You mean DBG actually temp banning cheaters and exploiters? I'm okay with that.

    Yeah, but you started out not liking this server.

    Yeah I tried a rogue in classic, was one of the most miserable experiences of my gaming career. Got into a bad static for the Mischief launch, but kept telling myself "I can't leave because I probably won't get a group otherwise."

    I've seen what I think is a change to raid ids so that you can raid with multiple characters on the same account. Am I understanding that correctly? Combine that with being able to trade gear and OW content becomes a lot less important. I feel like I'm missing something though.

    I don't think a ranger is going to get close to a monk dps wise for a few xpacs, but I'll always pick ranger over monk to play personally. I just like the class more.

    An article was talking about using an AI to come up with the concept for Everquest 3..... We Asked ChatGPT and Midjourney to Design EverQuest 3 Since Daybreak Games Won't Do It The eyes.... the eyes get me.

    I've seen it twice now lol. Guy was applying to an analytics manager position and he listed out the influential books he's read. You can probably guess they were oddly political and nothing to do with analytics.

    Anyone trying to get their point across with rainbow bold underline font with a mix of all caps - doesn't have $50K to toss around. Right up there with people who put books they've read on their resume.

    Should have been a dead give away when I said the leaders were reading the forums.

    Imagining these are devs are mostly gen z kids who WFH and managed to convince Daybreak that their 4 hours a week are actually 40+. Daybreak leader: "The forums are in an uproar about our strategic FTE feature not working...have you completed your testing?" Gen Z dev: "These boomer gamers...

    Mob locking doesn't solve the issue though it just moves it "back". Now instead of DPS races, it turns into who locks/taps first. If anything it adds more ways of screwing over people. Qoidjfks now just locks mobs before they're visible.
