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

Sleepers really is kind of a slog for what you get out of it on this ruleset.

A tip for all the aspiring Beastlords out there. Memorize the phrase "and I've also got a level 60 Wizard I can box."

At least with Luclin there's a bunch of acceptable outdoor zones where you can form a group out of any collection of warm bodies and just genocide the wildlife.

A number of classes have issues getting a group on this server. Wizard, Warrior come to mind. Unfortunate to hear Beastlords are in the same boat, kinda want to give one a try since it's the last class I've never played in any legit sense.

I haven't been focusing enough on EQ or I would have already been 60 by now on my wizard, but I've found that I get 99% of my groups as a wizard... by starting the group myself lol.

I sat for 2 hours and 44 minutes yesterday (timed it) on my 55 wizard LFG. Now keep in mind, I wasn't trying hard to get a group because I was also playing Lord of the Rings Online at the same time and having a shit ton more fun there than in EQ. But... the point is, it took almost 3 hours to get a group on a 55 wizard.

I stayed there all day and am just about to hit level 59. If I can stop playing Lotro long enough to focus on the wizard, I should hit that magical 60 early this week, but fuck if that new Veil of the Nine server isn't fun as hell on Lotro right now. Hard not to play it nonstop.

It's crazy how every time DPG games tries to "Fix AEing" they end up making it more toxic. AE plers used to go to unused zones like Mistmoore and the Deep. Now that AE is capped at 30 they go to the Highest ZEM zones like Sol A/B, Guk, Chardok and Velks.

They were in all those zones before that fix. Though I guess more of them have moved over?

I think with PLers there's just more in general, each successive TLP the box crews get a bit bigger and more numerous, the PL crews get more numerous etc. Even casuals are boxing more because they realised they need to if they want to get more stuff done.

I'm not even sure the huge increase in population is more than a marginal increase in humans, just a big jump in characters per person being "played".

I don't recall Beastlords having issues finding groups, they are actually pretty strong in the group game, you get slows, an extra tank, some buffs, not terrible DPS, most of their DPS issues are in raids due to MoTM. Good ones with gear can actually tank if they know which spells to cast, slow + incapacitate is decent aggro for example, bandolier in a spare set of weapons with stun augs and you're solid.

I stand by my Wizards being shit at sustained group DPS early game before focus effects and AA. But they will be really good starting Luclin, use rains still but with max FT, crit AA, familiars etc they will get a lot better, a raid geared and paying attention Monk, Ranger, Mage, Rogue will still probably beat them over the long haul though.

Still have that AFK shitter stigma to contend with so probably won't be first picked.

Some drama with the kingpin of krono sales supposedly.

"During our call he was drunk and his buddy was ODing in a chair in their RV. I have photos and videos of the entire call."

Congrats on the launch winners. Nice to see some good competition.

I had a brief interaction with that guy (Diamond Krono) and he definitely seemed unhinged and paranoid. He was for sure trying to scam me because he wanted me to deliver the krono I was selling first instead of him sending the money first. I also noticed a lot of feedback padding between him and other supposed sellers.

I assume this is what at least half the people in EQ look like
