[Nirgon]

But not if you ding from getting rezzed obviously.

Should be easy enough?

Leveling hasn't restored mana or health... Ever on EQ. Didn't in classic, doesn't on Live now.

It only did unclassicly on this server for a year or two. Someone mixed up Diablo2 and EverQuest apparently.

No. I'm definite on at least full mana on a ding brotha.

Why on earth would I have any kind of memory of dinging mid fight and being able to finish the fight when otherwise I could not as a lowbie?

[Daldaen]

Cause your memory is wrong?

I distinctly recall a level 9 hybrid dinging and the mana going from 0% and slowly ticking up. Not going from 0% to 100% and not already being at 100% (classic hybrids had 0 mana until they could actually use spells this last piece shown in this screenshot)

It never was a full mana or HP recovery on any server but this one. If you think I'm wrong, provide some evidence.

Ding 50, mob hasn't even hit the ground yet, still 60% mana.

EverQuest never had mana recovery on leveling.

Ya I gotta give it to ya on that one.. this I remember while memming their spells.

WTF am I and others remembering full mana on a ding at least if not full hp too. The surviving a multi-pull because of ding being the big one? No one else here remembers that, esp at low levels?

Doesn't help being full HP in both... but that's a sign of not being a dope more than anything.

[nilbog]

full hp/mana was (is?) in the eqemu code. It was removed.

[Daldaen]

Yea I thought it was pretty limited to EMU.

That being said... Lol at full group at seafuries. Also a baller ice comet to ding 50.

[heartbrand]

That screenshot makes me miss classic night vision

[Asap]

Gdi I love the classic ui

Sorry, that is incorrect. Dinging did give you full health and mana at least during the Kunark era. I remember an SOE rep, probably a developer, say that it was not intentional and was a side effect of increasing maximum hit points and mana.

It only did unclassicly on this server for a year or two. Someone mixed up Diablo2 and EverQuest apparently.

Also, I have never played Diablo, and started this server last year. The other players that came to this server with me were also surprised the restore was not here. Nirgon is not imagining it, it did occur.

(not that it is a huge deal, just saying it was in during the 2000 Kunark era when I started)

[Daldaen]

My screenshot from the Kunark era begs to differ.

If ANYTHING it was a temporary bug that was patched out within 1 or 2 patches. Maybe existing for a month or two.

EverQuest never had mana recovery on leveling.

still 60? or coming up from 0 and on the way to 100?

and i dont see a level, or even an xp msg in this one

[Daldaen]

The second one isn't meant to prove the OPs point. It was meant to prove a side point. Hybrids shouldn't get any mana until they ding 9, then they gain it.

That shows a low level ranger with no spells memes at 0% mana.

The first one I think is evidence enough to prove that it didn't restore on level. But find quotes from the era if you think I'm wrong and that snapshot is in the process of going up.

A level 49 ding

[Xadion]

ding gave HP but not mana I belive was classic.

[Asap]

here's a quote I found

I am not sure if they changed it, but back in EQ1, when you 'Dinged', your hp/mana didnt fill up, so it was common to ding/unding in roughly the same moment. I loved that in EQ2 when you leveled, you were given full hp/mana. the mini-dings I think came shortly after, but I do not remember them during the first month (Nov 04).

[Schnitzel]

Maybe you are thinking of WoW? It works like that there.

[Yoite]

Well I'm with Nirgon on this one, I recall surviving several encounters by dinging on my druid to keep healing. Even so much as when I would get close to lvling, i would tell my buddy to keep pulling, dont worry about my mana, its about to be full again.

This was during Luclin and PoP era however. I dont recall if it did this in classic or not.

And yes I remember it only filling up your mana, not your health too.

[Sulfurian]

I remeber surviving a bad pull because of a well timed ding as well.

Cant' be classic though when i bought the game , it was luclin already.
