    Yeah, DPG never announced or alluded to a merge (until this year). We all just got Mandela effect'ed because everyone assumed the servers would eventually merge. Which was a logical assumption to make given how the server announcements were rolled out - weeks apart, and only after the community...

    I played the free test for a bit over the weekend. It ran fine on my rig which is about 4.5 years old now. Ryzen 7 2700, RTX 2080, 32gb RAM.

    Where are all the MMORPG games? lol

    Numbers suggest otherwise. A shitty game with a dumb setting managed almost a million concurrent players and cracked the top 5 on Twitch for a month. If an MMO can get almost a million people to try out roleplaying a conquistador (lol), I'd argue there's a viable market hungry for a game that...

    Are there any differences between krono activated and credit card accounts? I do both and have never noticed anything different.

    So the spell that keeps your pet out of the fight longer is the cool, hip choice? That's 33% extra downtime on every recharm because you wanna play it safe. Color skew (2sec) casts faster than the lvl 2 mez (2.5). PBAE stun is also way more versatile and worth having on your bar over a second...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    Color skew (lvl 43) is the first 8sec stun you get IIRC. The stun duration for that spell line caps at 8 seconds afaik (still playing my enc on Mischief). No need to use the lvl 50+ kunark upgrade - all it does differently is drain 100 mana according to ZAM. 8 seconds covers your 6.5 second...

    One of the best feelings in EQ is when you join a group with a maniac puller pushing the group to the brink. Conversely, one of the worst feelings is when you arrive at camp and discover the puller is a meandering boomer dipshit who never chains and thinks he needs to FD split 3 mobs.

    Absolutely. Whenever I come across an EQ post on the MMORPG subreddit, I swear half the posts are, "I'd play this if it weren't for ancient graphics/UI"

    I was one of those clueless naive normies on Mangler, which was the first TLP I really got into. A guildie once mentioned how he could tell if something was up and even what weapon it was holding. He was like, "there are ways!" making it sound all mysterious. I figured it took leet haxor skillz...

    Last June one of my mischief friends logged into a live server, used MQ2, and a week or two later his accounts caught a 1 week. I don't know what he used it for specifically.

    Yes, SEQ is good for general awareness. Like knowing where Talendor is when you're farming in skyfire. Or to avoid being that retard who dies trying to get to the raid.

    Ruin seems a bit over dramatic. Not like the classic content won't be there. Classic has already been shortened to a month (which seems to have near a 100% approval rating in the community) so a kunark launch does feel kind of inevitable. I think you're in the minority. Bigger world, iksars...

    You're right. I remember someone causing an AoC snafu on Aradune during Velious. We were planning to split Zlandicar or something.

    AFAIK The main reason for this change was to get rid of OOG cheese pulling (OOG puller could train his group with a rare plus gobs of mobs, /yell the rare, FD) It also is a huge QoL change for Joe Casual trying to powerlevel boxes or buddies with his druid, or for any group who wants to add OOG...

    I think charm is balanced pretty well in group play from Omens - SoF (the furthest I've gotten). Gates is the worst since pretty much everything is immune to charm past tipt/vxed. They took a much better direction in Omens which is basically: go ahead and charm anything anywhere except the...

    Also an FYI in case you don't know, I believe keying requirements have been removed from Anguish. I'm almost certain you don't need the signets, but you might still need a backflag or the trials to loot stuff? Someone here should know for sure.

    first char to max should give 20-25%. Some of the evolving bonuses take too long to evolve as well. 25% loot bonus in kunark, then it doesn’t “evolve” again until TSS? Dumb.

    Why were they so concerned with running it away, keeping the puller's health low etc? I take it there's ways to peel mobs off people who already have FTE lock?

    That would be a pretty big reverse course considering they just nerfed XP in DZ's to discourage grinding in them. Not to mention instanced content has been around since LDON. And post-OOW there is quite a bit of group content that is task-based and instanced, so that doesn't fit the...
