I lol. Good post, we are in agreement. But why be a tank if the mobs arn't going to be attacking you? Isn't that the point? Maybe the wizard will take all the damage and then he can heal himself and then jerkoff lolol.

I'm not sure how it will work, but perhaps the damage that's unavoidable can be absorbed by a tank by standing in the way of the ally.

For example: Wizard boss casting spell at a healer. Tank can stand between them and take the damage instead (or perhaps lessen the damage to anyone behind him).

I hope the fact that there are 4 base classes that you cannot go outside your 'base' in general... If you choose warrior you should be able to just say ' I am a wizard ' and boom, look I have a wand now haha boom

Isn't that what old school EQers want? Gaming the system with unintended mechanics?

Yes. Thats the point of being a HARDCORE GAMER YO. You play 15 hours a day, figure out the exploits, reap benefits, then report it. Thats standard mmo. The top players arn't rushing to level so they can be legit. They wana get pimped the fuck out the ez way. Age of connan comes to mind and me soloing raid bosses, then raping everyone in PVP. Was wonderful.

I don't think the game is going to be as easy as some of you seem to think.

I agree - odds are there's going to be a mix of some easy and some hard with their method.

Plus due to emergent AI stuff, the easy stuff will become less easy or "hide" and force people out of easy routes.

They could of made EQ++ in a sandbox. They still could if they wanted too. It would be pretty awesome with what's in right now.. They just think what they are doing will be better. Lets step back and see if they are right. Maybe they are just being cautious to not upset too many but they do seem ready to listen to suggestions. I'm not as done with SoE as others are so ill half believe that.

i have no faith left in SOE. this game looks and sounds exactly like GW2, exactly. they can jizz all over each other and use buzz words to make the game sound awesome, but it's going to be everquest: the guild wars 2 edition. there could be a million different classes, but there will only be a handful of viable builds and everyone will copy them. people may say they hate the trinity, but in a fantasy MMO, it's the only one that works. when you let everyone do everything, there is no identity whatsoever and everyone is homogenized and you have GW2...

I wouldn't believe the hype about any emergent AI stuff until you see it. Does anyone know how much of that stuff they have tested out yet or is it all just conceptual right now.

Thanks, found lots of good info on EQ Next there

BTW I signed up for Beta, anyone else did?
Click to expand...
Most us from the boards signed up in the super elite period lulz, when someone from the boards hacked soe so all on the boards could sign up early,

Lol I am kidding about that btw, but do think either someone from the boards works at soe and flipped the switch so we could sign up early or the MMO gods were smiling on us.

Cheers.
