damn bro it’s just gay elf pixels

The Autism spectrum.

You’re a fucking retard.

Well i just asked in the general channel, and apparently some dude said he made one of the bank crate things. Anyone in his group could use it, and it lasted 6 hours. So now i guess it’s just a matter of bringing a second spellbook around with you wherever you go so you can dump one in your...

Just looked at 3 different instances of people questioning the Spellbook mechanics on the very responsive discord. Zero response.

Sure - but given the frequency this comes up in various channels, you’d think at some point they’d come out and say something. Unfortunately I’ve only heard third hand references to ‘crates’ or ‘mounts’ that may or may not exist.

Ah so just your actual fucking imagination. i DoNt KnOw WhAt ThE bIg DeAL iS

Link to where they said this is for sure?

Ya ya, but for real.

What can i learn to avoid bank runs before CRs?

^ this is exactly what i mentioned a couple pages back. NPC behaviour.

Melee are not worthless naked. Some of the most class defining abilities are retained on death (taunt, stealth, fd, etc) as has been discussed numerous times. Further, trash mobs drop basic weaponry allowing for limited re-gearing to a decent percentage of a player’s potential output during the...

I don’t really give a shit about how difficult different classes find CRs. I give a shit about having mandatory bank run time sinks before CRs that make me have less fun in my leisure time. Especially for arbitrary ideas about ‘equity’ that aren’t equitable at all.

And that’s exactly it. A mandatory bank run means you trivialize corpse runs. In EQ people wanted back to the grind ASAP, so they struggled through it without re-gearing at the bank. With this system corpse runs are just gonna be an exercise in tedium, rather than the most exciting part of the...

…that’s tough dog

Ah yes, because that is an ‘innate’ skill for some reason. Makes perfect sense.

Got a link to their statement?

Ah yes, the ‘RP REASONS!’ gameplay mechanic Macguffin. I guess it was only a matter of time. Surely those always make the player experience more cohesive. How could i be so foolish?

Sure, I’ve seen them post. What i haven’t seen is them chime in with the rationale behind these design decisions with anything outside ‘it’s early’ or ‘death should be meaningful’ as if we all don’t already know those things. They obviously don’t owe us anything, but they’re the experts, so...

‘Magical skull storage’… you mean… memory? Please explain why a rogue can remember how to stealth after they die, or a monk to feign death, but it’s ‘magical skull storage’ for a cleric to remember how to heal.

lol they ARE forum tards - just like the rest of us. Nothing about the current spellbook system vis a vis death makes the game better. Or at least, i haven’t heard a good argument. i know they lurk here, and they’re welcome to chime in and defend this shit.

A warrior or rogue loots a fine steel weapon at the dungeon entrance and they regain 60% of their effectiveness on a CR. But for whatever reason we’re gonna force entire groups to do a bank run because butthurt idiots thought a shitty system from 25 years ago wasn’t fair or something. Make key...

The answer is no, those skills are classified as ‘innate’, and stay on your memorized bar after death. The premise is arbitrary and absurd.

Warriors gonna start dropping Taunt and Slam too or nah? Monks FD? Rogue stealth?

No no i think you start dropping your spell book on your corpse at level 8. The spells don’t get deleted from it so they don’t need to be re-scribed. You loot your body, including your book, and re-memorize the spells. The issue is that there’s an expectation you’ve bought a second spell book...

It’s not character, it’s bad game design. Corpse runs are fun. Fighting your way back to your body with a power reduction from missing your gear, while experiencing the anxiety of losing your investment. That’s character. Waiting for your group members to complete a bank run before you can get...

I have heard zero decent argument for forcing bank runs prior to CRs. The system adds zero marginal enjoyment, and is a net negative on the player. The closest thing I’ve heard is that there may be plans for pack animals of some kind that have storage, where you can park them outside dungeons...

Not sure i fully agree, but i do somewhat. Several of the classes (Paladin, Ranger, Cleric, Warrior) have been vastly improved. The worst thing about the game seems to be a misidentification of what made EQ great. Yes, some of the friction present was responsible for the joy we all felt...

Animations will almost certainly be last. I like the models quite a bit.

This thing looks like it’s gonna buy me shots of Fernet and try to finger my bum.

Christ no wonder military dudes are so frequently weirdos.

I see this a lot and I just don’t get it. 45% from above the break on open 3s… 41% off screen movement 3s which leads the league last year… the guy is still a monster and a top 5 movement shooter in the league. Is he still good enough to be a number 2 option making $45mil per year? Definitely...

I don’t know what happened here, but Naji Marshal is a solid pickup to replace him. Absolute dog of a defender that will smother his man full court, and a better shooter and playmaker than DJJ. Dallas will lose some verticality and transition scoring from Jones, but I think this is overall...

Well, all of the Nuggets, Clippers, Pelicans, and Warriors getting appreciably worse this off season should make the west less of a shit show next season. OKC, Dallas, Minnesota, Phoenix, Houston, and Sacramento look like the top 6 squads next year, unless the Lakers somehow land Klay without...

So I just started looking into this, and according to the wiki the spells on the old EQ classes are basically identical. Like down to the level you get them. Is this accurate and intentional? Or are the old EQ spells/abilities just placeholders during development? Was kinda stoked to play a new...

I’m most happy for Luka. Both KP & THJ gave off real bad vibes on the court playing with Doncic. Glad he’s free of them.

The Lakers just said they’re willing to pay him $160mil over 3 years in a new contract… I don’t think Lebron, a man so cheap he brings his own snacks to games and won’t pay for Spotify Premium, walks away from $110 million. The next expansion is still a couple years away.

Unless you’re the Celtics or Lakers, teams always have to overpay for the final piece of their championship roster. They’re likely gonna lose Hartenstein, but this is absolutely a contender 1 through 9. Killer defense, tons of ball handling and shot creation, ability to play 5-out with Randle...

If you can’t tell the difference between shit and gay shit, you’re probably gay shit.

I'm using the term 'gay shit' in a more holistic way than just referring to actual gayness.
