All AGNARR related things

[Maker_Mayhem]

Greetings friends,

Here is a streamlined post of recruitment for my guild. If you desire more details please see P99 Suicide (Agnarr Recruiting Thread) under rants and flames.

* Family oriented guild -- No vulgarity or excessive language towards guildmates or the community will be tolerated.

* Casual Style Raiding (though many of us will be forming up groups for intense play during/ around launch)

* Set raids weekly -- 2-3 days a week EST time.

* Unscheduled/ split raids likely as playerbase grows and momentum builds.

* Consistent grouping and events.

* Loot council based /random 1-100 for raid drops - i.e. council decides if Cloak of Flames is rolled on by only melee dps or melee dps and tanks initially, etc.

*Once main's are equipped, loot will open up to rolling for alts who are raiding.

* Raid incentives for consistent raid attendance. I.e. If you have 3 raids and lose a roll to someone with less than 3, you will be allowed another roll. Ultimately, loot is decided by the "algorithms that be." Other incentives for tenure with guild likely. (i.e. you have been in the guild a year and lose to someone just out of the app period, you will be provided another roll, etc.)

*Leadership roles available -- please PM me with "Guild Leadership" in the subject line.

* Website INC -- if you are talented with web design and interested, please PM me. (I am able to make one, however, Web design/admin isn't exactly a favorite hobby of mine).

Overall, we are looking for genuine people who are aiming to have fun and help others to do the same.

Much thanks,

Maker

Official launch thread for the agnarr server, post here if you plan on playing, if you have a static group ready to go or if your looking for people to play with. Also please don't shit up this thread, if you don't plan on playing don't reply, its that simple.

[JurisDictum]

I'm planing on playing a Troll SK and have one on Phinny ATM. I'm exploring around to prep. Don't know anyone from p99 going yet because its been forever since I raided / had contact with people.

I'm mostly concerned about Krono farmers somehow shitting up the server. I have a feeling it won't matter as much as the bitchers say it will -- because that is almost always the case. But I'm prepared for it to be chaotic the first 5-6 months or so.

The main thing I'm afraid of: my class may prove obsolete to leveling crews who are obsessed with efficiency and charm groups.

[JurisDictum]

I have a question for anyone who knows about Mage Pets on Agnarr:

https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/agnarr-mages.239935/

Is there anyone who knows how strong they will be exactly? For all we know, mage armies will be dead until Luclin (IMO an obvious thing to do from a dev standpoint).

Pretty shitty, you can log on phinny and play with them a bit, only difference is that MoTM and aggro transfer will be on agnarr which makes pet classes even worse. Necro's somewhat get a pass since they do add some decent raid dps but i personally wouldn't touch mages with a 10 foot pole.

Ill be rolling a human wiz at launch.

[Bruno]

The most annoying thing about mages is pets getting wrecked taking aoe damage. Although they can still pump out same solid deeps and are helpful for certain fights such as praesertums, I would much prefer playing a wiz. Also cuts the obligation to summon 9000 items a raid.

If you aren't going to raid or enjoy being a support class they're fine.

[Beastagoog]

Any of you planning on boxing it?

I am thinking of going the old SK+SHM box.
Considering Hybrids do way more dps than they should due to the melee calculations I think it will be a solid duo up till PoP when mob dps/hp ramps up alot.

I used to box pal+dru+chanter+bst on eqmac but mostly charm killed in PoV for aa's etc. Usually barely used the chanter when I farmed places like seb/cdox2.

I think ultimately tho dru+chanter will be the most meta path to take as a 2 boxer but fuck meta paths I wanna enjoy this server.




(Never got to do velious/kunark on live and Ive done those expacs to death on p99, and I only ever got 2/4 elemental flags on eqmac before they shut the servers down so never got to do PoTime so keen to see that stuff on a semi relevent era)

On a TLP I would definitely want a port monkey as part of my box. I would go Druid/Monk or Druid/SK if I was you and basically use the druid to buff and heal the melee while you solo destroy things with DS/Regen

[JurisDictum]

I decided against 2 box. Things are going to be fast moving and competitive. If I ever 2 box, it will be a bit after launch when things calm down.

I will not be 2boxing, but I am debating between playing a halfling cleric or a troll SK. I main a cleric here, but I suspect everyone will be running around with CH bots so clerics won't be needed. Plus I have SK alt that I have enjoyed playing here and the troll regen will help with down time.

Theres a chance they wont fix the epic bottleneck for the SK epic if that helps you decide. In all the past TLP, SKs have apparently had hell getting their epics (along with Enchanters). Personally, I decided I would much rather play an Iksar SK than a Troll. So I'm going Druid like I did when I was a kid, to do it right this time. But I may switch to SK myself...you have until eve of Luclin to decide what class you want to play in PoP.

I really like the idea of the Agnaar server but its going to be sh!t with instancing. Everyone will have their top tier raid loot so quickly there will be no incentive to keep playing. Only reason P99 is still around is because items have value due to dragons being highly contested. I will probably give it a whirl...I wish they would release Beastmaster at launch =(

I've been trying to understand who Agnarr appeals to. Best I can come up with is for people who want to do VT/PoP before Pantheon without that late comer feeling that Phinny had where all the loot councils were already formed and every back door plan was already in place pre kunark.

I think it appeals to people who want to 'beat' the game. I know one of the appeals of EQ is that you can play it for years and lord over the 'casuals', but being on a fast track server knowing you will get like a year of play time out of it is not necessarily a waste if you treat it like a single player MMO where when you gear out and beat all the bosses a few times you can just hang your hat up and come back every now and then.

Honestly I don't even like raiding on P99 I just like leveling alts - This server might be fun for that.

[Tecmos Deception]

Kinda got excited this morning about the idea of trying Agnarr. I have a buddy who likes EQ but tends to get turned off by the hardcore-ness and lack of convenience of P99, but who might stick with Agnarr longer. I would like AAs (I dislike the mechanic of level and gear being the only things that contribute to character power). I wouldn't mind seeing all the Luclin and PoP zones I didn't get familiar with back in the day.

But then I read the Agnarr FAQ. LoY and LDON too? Respawning with items after a death? Augmentations to balance melee vs caster in the classic expansions of Agnarr's lifespan? Instances of non-raid zones when the population is high? New layout in like a dozen classic zones? Countless changes to items and NPCs and quests that aren't era-appropriate even for the LOY and LDON eras? No weight coins?

Even if I were a junkie for Luclin and PoP, that is a pretty huge list of things that will make the game feel even less like the Luclin and PoP era than P99 feels like classic, even ignoring all the mechanic wonkiness that will exist from them not putting enough/any effort into revisiting behind-the-scenes coding of modern EQ compared to <2005 EQ.

Pay to play? Not in 2017.

Shit. Yeah. Then there's that.

[Baler]

All the people who use to play classic EQ got old.
It's ruining modern gaming just as much as all the youth with no respect.

Apparently having kids and responsabiltes = everyone has to suffer shitty games.
And apparently youth with their mobile instant satisfaction mentality = everyone has to suffer shitty games.

Welcome to the future, this is why no one can have nice things. This is also why micro-transaction became a thing.

A lot of things about agnarr are appealing, and a lot of things make it sound like a dumpster fire.

I too question the longevity of the server

[Tecmos Deception]

I too question the longevity of the server

I noticed that the two latest TLP servers are the two with the highest population over on live... but does anyone have an idea of what that population is approximately?

I love p99's atmosphere because even if there's only 700-800 on, they're all over and leveling and a mix of types of players. I worry that live servers are too segregated into guilds and too dead if you're just a casual player on here or there looking to have fun instead of running with a scheduled group.

i feel like this is the best answer anyone can expect to see about agnarr. gives you the full advantage of enjoying summer outdoors. join where p99 leaves off and beat your cakes a little to luclin and pop raids. don't really need to worry about getting a guise when you can instance your own ocean of tears and just do seafuries and get one from the kings court casino. and as far as longevity obviously none of the niche sandboxes will survive if pantheon can live up to even half of the expectation. best way to summarize it is a mushroom trip once you realize it's just a ride then you gotta quit fighting it and enjoy it.

[Beastagoog]

Lol you cant instance your own OoT. It requires certain x number of people then a time limit to open a 2nd instace of a zone....that is if oot CAN be picked.

I think some of y'all are just scared to pay a monthly fee bcoz you'd not have to eat for one day a month to pay it.

P99 has so much no classic shit on it too. I think Agnarr is going to be a raging sucess for Daybreak and will eat atleast 30-40% of p99's pop.

Who doesnt want want an instance version of PoP? And find a guild that raids according to your schedule so you can have a life while seeing content you didnt get to see back in the day.

Instanced raiding means guilds can raid at 7-10pm 4 days a week and enjoy eq while playing with their kids. Not this lame FTE foot races at 3am with batphones and eyebags.

Sorry neckbeard and no lifers, this server takes away from what you value: 18 hour eq sessions to FTE Gozzrem and have a bunch of other no lifers pat you on the back for snagging it.

Pretty much answered your own question.

For me it will be a re visit to Luclin and Pop before Pantheon.

Who wants to play velious for the next 10 years anyhow? It is a horrendous attempt at raiding for an xpac. Luclin and PoP were the polishing of the raid scene for classic eq.

The fact it is instanced to makes it even more appealing. Can set a regulated eq time to play and raid and not have to get arse sores just to rehash eq.

[Fifield]

super unclassic, its a whole new version of EQ.

will it be fun? yes, will it last? meh time will tell

[JurisDictum]

If you want to have fun playing modern EQ -- This is all Agnarr is. I would just do a non-PoP locked box, but it doesn't sound fun (maybe after I get used to new content). It's not some mission to recapture the exact classicness of EQ. It's just a game like classic EQ with modern QoL improvements and character buffs.

[Tankdan]

I dont think anyone is arguing that Agnarr is remotely classic. It's a prog server, it's fun, no poopsocking required, who cares.

[Anowin]

This is exactly the point, I think, of Agnarr. At the end of the day, it's how you want to play that matters. Would I love to go back in time (knowing nostalgia itself is severely colored reality) and play the difficult, amazing game EQ classic was, for entire weekends? Sure. But it's not an option with two young children, and I fear it would get old very quickly. With faster xp but "mostly" classic mechanics, etc., this seems like a very appealing way of experiencing the fun and thrill of the classic experience, modified for the realities of life. It is, after all, just a game :)

[heyokah]

It's not intended to be "classic" in the way P99 approaches it. P99 does "classic"(just call it golden age EQ cuz its actually not classic!) better than any server out there. There's no disputing it. The problem lies at endgame. Its fucking testicular cancer. Why anyone would get a taste of it, and choose to stay there when there are better options for your EQ fix, i will never know. So thats where phin/agnarr come in. IMO they are adding the old models and whatnot just for that extra nostalgia kick. The game mechanics are completely different and are not intended to be classic in any way. Raiding is the big draw for me. Are you an adult with shit to do and can only raid on a schedule? You will like agnarr/phin if yes. QoL improvements are too numerous to name, but lets just say its less annoying to do shit in this version of EQ. I remember a point in P99's life where maps were enabled in the newb zones. I see why they removed them, but its just an example. Also, you cannot just spawn your own instance of any zone you want and just farm whatever. Once a zone reaches its threshold, another instance pops open, and you are able to /pickzone to it. I think the number is 40-45 or something? Thats assuming the zone you want is able to be instanced, which not all are. They also changed how this works recently so you cant just lock down a pick and farm shit.

[Jimjam]

Lol classic mechanics. You are either seriously deluded or have no idea what classic was like. There is literally nothing 'classic experience' about Agnarr. Nothing.

Well, there are salty neckbeards who make it their lifes mission to ruin the experience for everyone else.

Advanced loot window. WTF is going on with this POS?

[Arclyte]

so what classes are going to be good / shit? I have no idea what effects all the changes will have

[Deliverator]

It is really pretty simple once you look at it... You have the "Loot" button first, then the "Leave button" these are your one off choices similar to the original loot window of just loot it or leave it on the corpse. Then you have check boxes for "Always need" and "always greed" for any group set up for a rolling loot option. Then you have "Never" which is your never loot this button. That means that from now on when you loot a corpse this item won't even show up in the loot window because you are now ignoring it completely as if it wasn't there. Pretty simple concept.

[Fifield]

I remember first playing phinny that adv loot window drove me nuts. Once i got used to it, things were better.

Still prefer looting corpses for items but it does make things easy.

lol especially if you are circumcised....the difficulty and technique is completely different. its possible to ejaculate without orgasm in circumcision, and in a relationship I'm always marveled at how women freely associate ejaculation with a solid orgasm. Could not be farther from reality.

I use that as one of my deal-breakers. Helps you not get caught up in a bad situation where you really aren't getting what you should be, but the other person is acting like you are. Creating a false sense of entitlement in a relationship with whatever power-struggle the feminist happens to think she has going (sex for certain relationship compliance) As it happens, its usually bad sex. Pass.

some things people say (maybe most things) are "tells"

what this "tell" (never had a good handjob and proud) says to me is that you've never had a real sexual connection with anyone and yet are unable to muster the clarity of mind to acknowledge this and pursue fixing it. You feel that poor handjob performance is something fundamental to the human experience and justify this perception with a meme ("i can do it better muhself lol").

it's just Big Bang Theory banter, sure, and maybe I'm taking it too seriously, but it disturbs me deeply to see adults of at least middling intellect who are still having sex with facsimiles, fetishes and simulacra instead of pursuing a true connection with their partner as they drift very close to middle-age. Do yourself a favor and start looking your lovers in the eye while you join instead of closing yours to imagine scenes from interracial pornography. If you find this does not yield results, consider doing the same but with men.

That means that from now on when you loot a corpse this item won't even show up in the loot window because you are now ignoring it completely as if it wasn't there. Pretty simple concept.

they shoulda implemented this "never" option as liek a spell that you have to cast and it affect whatever on you cursor, but liek only give the spell to liek maybe enchanters and rogues, so you gotta work with the community to get youself blinded to all the junk you not want.

[JurisDictum]

The advanced loot is one of the only notable differences at first. That and you get spells every level,never have to go to trainer to get abilities (that I've experienced), and you get an origin ability every hour to gate to your starting guildhall.

The most offensive thing to classic is the indifferent aug merchant in every town that sells weapon/caster augments. That and the find/maps of course.

I'm still really looking forward to Agnarr though. Partly because p99 helped me with my classic fix before hand.

It's interesting how much people can hate on what others may want to try or enjoy that said people do not like or do not want to try.

I know many people that are intrigued with Agnarr, but say the same thing; "I would try it but don't want to pay for a sub."

I don't ask why, I honestly don't know their financial situation but can respect that over how some people spout off about all the evil things Agnarr will bring to the game which is ridiculous.

If you don't like it, don't play it then.

But don't try to justify to all the ones who will or want to try it why you hate it so much when in actuality there's probably more than the simple "it's not classic" reason behind why you are not going to try Agnarr.

It's cool if someone simply doesn't want to pay a sub for Agnarr, but it's not cool hating those who will.

Never seen so many immature men whining about why others shouldn't play a game until now.

Well for me that $30 40 slot 100% bag kinda pisses me off. I'm not in the business of paying for advantages or playing with people who pay for advantages. I can maybe stomach pay-to-not-grind but outright buying advantageous items, nah. And that's purely on principle, not the value of $30 vs. my time

Always respected WoW for that being the one shark they never jumped.

I have not felt the touch of another human being since the mid 2000's. I was not rash in this decision. I concluded the risk of contacting a potential biovirus, which would consume the world within hours, not days, was not worth the reward of being able to be a neighbor.

I don't know how accessible good WR bags are in modern EQ, or even whether there's still encumbrance, so I can't gauge how impactful these items are. But like I said, it's the principle. You are paying RL money for an in-game advantage, which might be a huge quality of life thing, depending on how hard WR bags are to get. It may not make your character more powerful in combat but it's still a significant advancement.

Yea. I'm buying the bag don't get me wrong. But I'm not happy about the highly successful money grab they pulled off here. As long as they don't try to continue to do it too often I can live with it.

The server is instanced, how does somebody supporting the server and gaining a weight reduction bag impact you in any way? They will be in a completely different instance than you. Raid mobs will die within hours of each expansion launching. Zlandicar will be 3-manned. Thats the nature of prog servers. It means nothing if somebody else pays for an advantage.

If you think what essentially amounts to a holding corporation purchasing a brand and then attempting wring as much profit out of it as possible is the same as a gaming company "running a business", you have a lot to learn about both gaming and business.

idk, progression servers actually attempt to have a workable ruleset instead of being open exploitation of pixelbrains so it kinda looked like improvement to me. but as a heterosexual i haven't followed such things closely in a decade so i'll defer to u.

[mickmoranis]

EQ is a game that is as good as whatever YOU bring to it. You cannot fix it, you cannot make it better, it exists exactly as it is.

If you try to update the art? Fail

Try to update the gameplay? Fail

Try to update anything? FAIL

you cant fix it, hence why p99 is so popular, they dont try to fix shit, they'll put it in, no matter how lame and broken it was.

The only progression that would ever work would be Recycle99.

[Scaer]

I'm going to play... just don't know for how long! :P I'm thinking either an SK or a Necro. I am inclined toward Necro only because I've played that class since 2001.

[Tecmos Deception]

How did class popularity pan out on the other TLP server that was true box? I'm curious if certain classes end up a dime a dozen, or maybe are very commonly boxed but rarely mained, stuff like that. I don't want to play a chanter if every third character is a chanter using charm to power through content, or a bard if tons of people have a bard boxing mana/regen, or a wizard if lots of people just do the lazy wizard nuke nuke sit afk 10 minute thing with a box... etc.

But I also don't want to pick a class based on what won't be popular and then I realize it's unpopular because mechanics that I don't even know about due to live server changes over the last decade totally change the class from what I expect it to be capable of, etc.

IIRC on P99, for reference, druids and necromancers are the most popular by a fair margin; monk, shaman, enchanter, and cleric also being well represented; ranger and paladin being RARE; and the other classes being less popular but not rare by any stretch.

Well i don't know about the previous TLP servers but in faceless guild there is a charter showing total classes with top 3 being ENC/CLR/NEC and the bottom 3 being ROG/WIZ/PAL so im assuming thats how the class balance on agnar will be, especially considering how big facelessgaming is.

[Hakubi]

Kinda wanna try a raiding wizard but I have heard they suffer the same fate as here... no groups. I don't want to quad slowly on a TLP that is going to be dead in 2 years with a krono economy and people that pump and dump progression then leave. Maybe if I could come back in 4 years to a healthy playerbase but lets be honest TLP servers that aren't "current" are full of creepy loners lost in time and aren't really healthy enough to support raids/economies. These kinda vibes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqel0k0NzNU#t=1m21s

I'd do mage but apparently pets are super fucking gimped and non classic, also that their damage counts as aggro for the mage so they die constantly. Not to mention the nerf that the more pets attacking a mob the gimpier they get and a million other things.

Those are the only 2 classes I could probably stomach and even then the best parts of PoP (slow AA grind, slow gearing, slow progression, bazaar economy being healthy because not everyone was raid geared/being undermined by krono, more socialization, etc) have been easy buttoned so hard that the end of the journey will be a BIS wizard in welfare standing alone in the EC tunnel (or PoK) I never get attached to, maybe a couple kronos to repeat the entire process over again on the "new one" that comes out then. These people effectively skip the most rewarding parts of the game and are max level and raiding within 72 hours (or 40 hours in the case of Vox/naggy on level 34 mages)... there aren't even any cosmetic rewards or epeen scores for doing this that transfer over to the "new" TLP in ~12-18 months.

I love "ladder" style game play in things like PoE or Diablo 2 but they translate horribly to games like EverQuest. It feels so... hollow? like the fun isn't in the journey but the destination. Taking the Ever out of Everquest and turning it into a speed run. Like, it's not even classic so rogues are going to get shit on class balance and everything is predictable. At least PoE had leagues with actual game changing rule sets and MTC rewards that you could take to the next one.

tl;dr
Will I be able to at least get groups on my Wizard or will I be sitting there LFG while people play the same few power gaming min/max classes?

One of the first things I learned about gaming forums is their loaded with BS that gets passed on like the God's honest truth. It was just the God's honest truth that Warriors were the best tanks, and SKs and Paladins would struggle to find groups. It was the God's honest truth for most of live as I remember it according to forums.

Then the retarded forum crew finally figured out the nuance between group tanking and raid tanking. Now its true that Warriors aren't good at anything but raiding and you can't find groups with them. And they will go on believing that shit for awhile. Meanwhile, you can /w around a server and find out pretty quickly a whole host of warriors are doing just fine.

A lot of people don't even write that much except on game forums. So they think their exaggerations and stupid memes makes them "good at arguing" (or worse, the guys that think their cool and edgy). Even when someone knows a lot about EQ -- they are often terrible at constructing arguments or even paragraphs about it. The vast majority of the time, they are just parrots anyway. They don't try to confirm the information for themselves. Pay attention when someone tells you something like "x is the best" but can't articulate the logic behind "x is the best."

I guess what I'm trying to say is. Just play the game and you will find the forums aren't all that representative of the reality. Most people won't be playing with some perfect premade static group and never talk to anyone else. Those are small minority that are a hell of a lot easier to ignore on TLP than p99.

I played wizards on various progression servers and p99. However I think the real killer for me was on Phinny the druids had TLs available to them.

Think this time around I'll play a human (for that free origin) cleric. Honestly been toying with enchanter but doesn't feel very comfortable keeping track of a charmed mob that could murder you at any moment.

Speaking of which, do torches still allow dual wield on pets?

[JurisDictum]

Servers clogged up almost instantly. I think they just straight up underestimated how many would be trying play right away. Apparently Phinagal launch was smooth as glass. Welp it's been 35 mins. and I can't get in. Some have though. I think they might shut it down for awhile.

[Tecmos Deception]

Saw more people die on Agnarr yesterday in full groups than in my entire P99 career. P99 too easy.

Lol. I had like 3 deaths in blackburrow on a bard. 2 we're cause I had a melody including my aoe going as the plague rat that's level 14 or so on the top floor wandered past my little level 5 self. Once to a horrifying train.

Of course, it's not that p99 itself is too easy. It's just that p99 isn't brand new. If you took a group of naked players around on p99, you'd get your ass stomped here too ... and then you'd need to CR naked instead of geared.

No weight coins, cash shop 40-slot WR bags and xp pots, crazy group xp bonuses, spell damages scaled up (fucking wizards nuke for 15 with their level 1 spell for 8 mana), 16 bank slots, shared slots and plat slot, buying Kronos to use as currency instead of plat, etc.

No doubt about it, Agnarr is easier and pretty pay to win (fuck the retards who think that being able to buy Kronos to use to buy ingame gear isn't pay to win). Hell, true box is pretty p2w too; the more hundreds you spend on computers and subs, the more you can play without bothering with real groups and the more you'll be able to out-of-group assist guildies and alts and shit for the rest of the servers life. (This is my biggest concern I think... how boxes will make the game less fun in only a few weeks as nearly no group will be playing without oog mage dps and chanter/sham/druid buffs ... and eventually even bards with their aoe songs and shiz.)

But starting fresh on a crowded server is fun despite all that.

Cause really, how different is it if you're on p99 where most groups have significant twinkage or even a fungi or two... or if you're on agnarr a month from now and most groups have a 50 druid buffing or a 50 monk/necro/mage doing out of group?

Worse on agnarr probably. Because there you've got all the other crap making it easier too. And the boxing means easier ports, much faster grinding up of alt armies for rez/coth/summon/etc alts, etc.

Agnarr will feel more like present-day p99 than p99 does by the time they have kunark.

i created a shadow knight against better judgement. I'd like to complete a SK epic that i failed to finish due to a flubbed turn-in on live. First thing I heard in the SK channel was how OP mages were still and how no SK would ever have an epic because its too hard.

sigh

also, if any p99 guilds are out there, i'd like to join :)

20 minutes on a forum for a 20 year old game is concentrated sadness. It means you've played so many 20 hour elf sessions you can't even bring yourself to do them anymore

[mickmoranis]

do u still play here?

also yea ur right azzar

tbh if it were not for this website, i would have a total of TWO websites I visit.

When ive exhosted all the content in a 10 min period on the 3 that I look at, I wonder... what are some other good websites?!?!

Got a Guise on my Necro. Don't listen to all this crap about professional farmers locking everything down. Its just the usual neckbeard BS. They know how to balance the zones so people feel just the right amount of pressure to hang onto their camps IMO.

11k viewers watching Agnarr (for now) - https://www.twitch.tv/cohhcarnage

[Byrjun]

This server is fun, but the community on Agnarr made me realize how much I took P99 for granted. These dudes make the Red 99 community look like saints. You can really tell that this is a group of people who have gotten real comfy with there being essentially zero rules or policing for over a decade.

I always thought Red 99 was the penal colony but turns out it was Live all along.

For the most part yea but it can be a good way to learn strategies/builds you've never thought of.

Don't listen to all this crap about professional farmers locking everything down.

Go to Runnyeye and report back on that

[mickmoranis]

what I think is wierd is, if you play 10 seconds of a song on your stream, the audio gets cut out.

Play 1 minuet of a movie, and your stream gets shut down.

Play an entire 10 hour video game, live, upload it to youtube, get millions of views, and you make ad revenue.

Thats what I think is weird.

[joppykid]

My buddy and I just joined Agnarr earlier this week. It's certainly different but in its own way like a new game. Has obvious similarities as close as it can with updated graphics and combined zones so a lot of it is familiar but it looks so much different it's like we're experiencing it for the first time.

Does anyone know of any good leveling guilds on there? I am sure there are a ton with how populated the server is lol.

[LiQuid]

How do you feel about watching people play sports?

[kempoguy80]

So I decided to give Agnarr an honest effort, having never played live since velious launched and then discovering p99 in 2015. There are a number of things I like: a map (and being able to see your groupmates on the map), being able to see other people's mana bars, instancing when zones are full, buff timers, no CR, and the landscape graphics to name a few.

It is a lot easier than p99, which takes away somewhat of the challenge that p99 represents, and makes people more careless. The fear of death isn't there as it's more a minor annoyance if you die since you have all your gear when you return to bind. But on days I have an hour or two to play, agnarr presents a very nice option. If I'm in a zone and I can't get out I can just click origin and I'm back at my hometown. I have not really run into the kronos farmers, as I am only level 15, but I hear they are out there among my guildmates. Another con are the horrible elf character models, and that many animations do not work on the new models. I also cannot stand the advanced loot menu.

All in all I am enjoying Agnarr, and will continue to play on there while dropping on my p99 friends when I have more free time like on the weekends.

Adv. loot is one of very few complaints I have coming back to live. You can turn it off though if you are by yourself or loot master. I'm sure it'll be nice once I get the hang of it. Theoretically nobody can ninja loot in a group if the loot master is trustworthy.

I don't LOVE the new cash shop weapon and armor aesthetic augs but they give no advantage (minus turning crap weapons magic) and I'm fairly certain I could turn them off client-side if I start feeling more ambitious.

My desktop finally died this week so I'm down to a laptop atm. Hoping the parts I ordered will be here tomorrow, or friday so I can get back to it. New servers are always fun, it's nice seeing old zones so heavily populated again, and it'll be good to store some krono early on. I mean people are selling them for 1-1.4k from what I saw. That is super cheap. Spend an hour at seafuries now to afford a fungi or better later? Yes please.

The adv loot is definately weird at first. Still getting used to it. Liking Agnarr over all too. Twinklez, troll shammy this run.

Lvl 8. Never played a troll, so why not ya know

lvl 16 troll SK named Ruccus here. Could always use more friends to group with.

I personally enjoy the "essentially zero rules" thing. Let players sort it out for themselves. I wanna play Everquest not Nannyquest. If they don't want players to do something they should change game mechanics to make it not possible to do imo.

[JurisDictum]

50 Necromancer named Bagul. I sell all caster Research spells (thats: Wizard, Mage, Enchanter, and Necromancer) at competitive rates if any of you are interested. I can make ALL the spells.

Tend to hang out in the tunnel and Freeport a lot ATM.

Edit: Looking for Raw Fine Hides (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=51870), Raw Supple Runic Hide (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=52222), and Raw Fine Supple Runic Hide (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=51931). I'll trade spells or pay pp for those.

Ding 42 on my wizard. Someone hmu lets do some agnarr shit! Pm me here or pst to Kell In game.

No one answered this so:

The Shaman and Druid dot lines were changed so that they don't stack with their own live (can't stack Envenomed Bolt + Venom of the Snake for example) BUT the dot damage has been adjusted to gain the damage of the previous 2 dots. For example, a single Envenomed Bolt now does the same damage that Envenomed Bolt used to PLUS the damage of Venom of the Snake AND Envenomed Breath, as if you cast all 3 of those dots at the same time.

The mana costs are a lot higher of course but it's still an insane buff that should probably be rolled back for Agnarr but most likely won't.

TL;DR Shaman dots are real OP here, as if Shamans actually needed more help on a PoP server.

WOW.

what kind of damage is that? why the fuck would people even bother playing? I played the first TLP server and between the mage pets and the crazy monk damage it pretty much destroyed the whole feel. You would be getting your classic on and a mage would roll thru wiping the zone like if a high-level toon here clears kurns, like WTF lol

Anyone found a Duxaui type ui that works well on Agnarr. havnt found one i really like

If you stay away from the easiest and highest krono farms then you don't run into this much. It will definitely be worse at camps that unlock with each expo tho.

I've found there community as a whole to be good but i never go to rathe mtn for example.

Also the shaman dots are way more powerful but there mana cost evens it out. Its a great ks tool but otherwise they are not op from what I've seen. On raids they still birch about single player buffs.
