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

    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.

    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.

    I agree here. I just want fun people who get stuff done. The wrong people make playing a headache even if they are successful. I'm personally looking for a static and direction on class to play since I like most of the classes. I think that's a lot of us. The rules seem like they will...

    Yeah if I bought on April 2nd, I agree. The severity is barely a blip though. Personally I stay away from stuff like BUD because year over year its losing a hell of a lot more than what they lost with Dylan.

    Wrong how? 6 months back it was about $45. Before this partnership it was $66 when the partnership went live on April 2nd. It was "cratered" at $63 on April 12th, now it's back up to $65. I'm by no means a stock genius or day trader... but $1 isn't exactly cratering after some massive...

    The thing is that BUD isn't cratering like Fox News is suggesting. In fact it's doing well. It dipped a little for a few days, overall it's up. It's just a marketing move and it makes as much sense as all the other click bait we read. Who knows Bud Light might transition to a decent beer....

    Did a rogue a couple TLPs ago, it wasn't so bad. It sucked in the moment though because we always had to fill in our static. The guys who insisted on playing "needed" classes had horrible reliability.

    To be fair EQ1 isn't going to drive very many clicks unless a player divulges military secrets in Commons.

    What guilds are shaping up on the top end of things? I don't make a lot of friends on these TLPs and I skipped the last one so I'm a bit out of the loop.
