    New Rule: Should we cull all EQ-Neckbeard discussion from game threads?

    Until they make an MMO 1/8th as good as EQ, I'm curious why the mention of other MMO's are not a punishable offense.

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    I think you hit the nail on the head for why this game still has drawing power for intelligent people. I get apps from people who devote 15 hours + a week to their characters, and they have to still be taught how to raid, how to perfect their tanking/utility/dps, etc, and barring ego issues...

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    Heroics can be different for each class. The above list is completely incorrect for paladins, for example. Paladins prioritize AC, then dex, agi, sta, str....etc. Dex is our dodge modifier as well. Somewhere buried on the forums last year there was a post by a dev on the "primary" stat for...

    It's basically just the shawl 2.0 effect (which most tanks still wear including myself) in an aug so we can finally stop wearing a 4 expansions old piece of armor. But ya, happy times. Of course the focus is different for other classes if you want.

    Beastlords currently hold very high numbers. It will probably not always be the case, but right now a beastlord is awesome, both for it's sustained dps and the paragon/ferocity. 2 expansions ago you brought 2 of them to a raid for the buffs. Now i'd guild every beastlord I can get a hold of.

    You will regret ditching the shaman if you are set on keeping the rogue. The epic clicky alone is enough. The rest depends on how you play the group game. If you eventually want to do current content and hunt named it wouldnt be harmful to kill the bard for a tank class. However, tank...

    Starting with UF encounters have been designed specifically for paladins in mind. And Defensive isn't worthless. It's just that the additional warrior mitigation and higher AC softcap is far inferior to the amount of healing paladins give themselves. Most RoF raids I run still use warrior...

    All due respect Kreugen, but your current grasp on the current state of EQ characters must be based on really shitty characters. You're way off base. Firstly, other than clerics, paladins are the single biggest factor in the success of a given raid. I'm not talking about the stupid shitty...

    The only named that really requires a pet tank is Xolok the Blind. I tanked AoW without any difficulty, although i'm fully raid geared.

    Your problem is that the AoW AE rampages, rampages, and also does a 40k AE very often. If you're using mercs they're too stupid to go OOR and you just die.

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    Ok, given that I seem to be the only EQ hardcore player left on this board, let me respond properly. 1. Gfay is a worthless shitpile of a zone 10 years ago, and you expect it to be anything today? You're the idiot who returned to the home city just to go LFG after a raid, arent you? Here's...

    I raid lead one of the top end guilds on Antonius server, Darkwind. It's a normal server with normal rules and you gotta pay your 15 bucks a month like a normal person. Send a tell to krozman in game if you have questions on how the game is now versus when you were a player. After going with...
