They capped spell damage to 40% Trust me, when I saw anyone at 39% harm touch was spamming.
Yeah, I knew I was off. It has been too long since I last played. But they have shown they can do stuff differently from pve to pvp.

When I was playing, during PoP I had such immense resistances on my paladin that when the GM's held an arena event, the only spells that landed on me were lures? I walked around murdering all the casters because they just couldn't touch me. Was this different on PVP servers? I remember that it came down to me and two necros, and they basically stood there doing nothing and died.
It was the same on pvp servers. With enough resists, casters could only land a few of their spells. Lures, splurt, winged death, and a few other spells had enough of a neg resist mod of them so they would land. I think at around 450 resist you could even resist those spells reliably.

Cloth caps all around!

PVP: don't put PVE required resources in PVP zones unless it is on a PVP server. Hell, don't have PVP enabled in zones even on PVE servers. Let that be the realm of instancing. Keep the shit holes separate from the real content, k?
What exactly is the point of PvP if there's nothing substantial to fight over? Not that I think they'd actually do it, the sheep pay for the game to keep running.

Yeah, ganking newbies 30 levels below you makes you such a wolf.

I was mostly saying to have two server types, and keep the stupid PVP bullshit from having an effect on the rest of the game to one server type. Duels and what not is OK, but putting rare resources in PVP zones on normal servers is retarded. This isn't Azeroth; it is Norrath. And Norrath is 90% not a PVP game. Keep that nonsense separate.

Evelight PvP in EQN over unobtanium on Odus. Ganking elsewhere will be heavily discouraged through massive faction losses (basically you become a mob).
Open world PVP on Odus would be such a waste. Now the Karanas being an open world PVP/keep/guildhall siege zone with capturable Highhold Keep? Yes. Fucking. Please.

Imagine the Qeynos -> Freeport runs? *drool*

The initial post was too spot on to not be SOE. Qwerty may be right, could be Brad or could be an unsung SOE hero who loves the game.

Edit: Mea Culpa - I should add that it could be someone from tentonhammer, mmorpg, massively or curse who has seen the game. I keep forgetting that there are a few people outside of SOE who know what's up.
I don't think hidemyass uses major ISP's in their IP ranges(can anyone confirm?). That being said, I'll stop pissing in the conspiracy-theory cheerios. Carry on!

I still can't believe mmorpg.com gets access to anything. That site is terrible.

The bar isn't set very high Draegan. I believe in you. You can break into that neckbeard world of leet infoz.

Superconducting is Brad, trust me. And be nice to him so he sticks around. Keep posting Brad, not everyone here is a total asshole. Just a vocal majority.
I doubt they let Brad into the Black Box. I can picture him peeking in the back window and asking everyone that comes out after work if they could spare some change so he could get some meth.

Edit: Sorry Brad if that is you. Stay clean pal.

I don't think anyone expects to be able to dig holes or redirect rivers or any absurd shit like that, however, I think people want to be able to make an impact on semi/non permanent world objects (trees, player made structures, seasonal related terrain)

lol @ rivers. In EQ2, there was a "river" separating the east and west side of Antonica (the area outside Qeynos) which was all of 6 feet across. You could jump said "river" with ease along most of its length. But there was a covered wooden bridge with guards stationed on it. Many things made me laugh at the ridiculousness of EQ2, but that still stands out to me. That's a good way to make the game feel absurdly un-epic.
