Wizards being able to gate and get up a TL box to another zone before their epic shield breaks is ruining this server. Also wizards should not be able to TL themselves period.

sorry you lost to a 2k hp wizard that has to stand still (doubling your damage) for 4.5 to cast on your 5k hp windstriker primal 10th ring ranger with sow and 350 bow range.

Wow ragnarok crying about something else. They got all kinds of rules changed already. No gm would do anything about apex mobs being pelled by out of range solo lowbies till it happened to rag. Now its TL boxes are ruining the game. If you are worried about server population then get with your guild. Everytime Apex stops you from raiding 35 of your 45 log off and don't play.

I'm betting that if we decided to lvl up 20 monks to fight with TStaffs we'd be seeing posts how losing control of your character for 10 secs is overpowered and needs to be nerfed. I'd say Windstriker's but since OP is a Ranger.. guessing he doesn't think that overpowered.

PS: No wizards were bound in Kael yesterday. (For Checkraise)

have zoned into ToV multiple times and gotten a TL box up either before melee train gets on me or after I juke them. Fail to see how bind affinity not working in raid zones would solve his problem and allow him to raid uncontested

It's easy to spam TL's when you're non-classically bound on top of area's in raid zones that you can't be attacked easily. It's much harder to zone into PvP and then get a TL box off and then PvP. If someone let's a wiz zone into Kael and pop a TL box off and get involved in the fight, so be it. But people being bound in BS places in ToV which is not classic is BS.

So your real problem is the class you play cannot get attack the people who bound in strategic places allowing them have full use of their class. You expect people to let you beat on them give you the advantage.

wasn't apex crying to suspend people like 3 weeks ago about them being bound on top of objects/ledges in ToV because it was "inaccessible" and "unfair"

eq is not a fixable game; there are so many glaring game design flaws that create nonstop whining from every side

plus there are all the unstoppable client hacks/exploits like freeport vision, duke tunnels, etc.

EQ loads assets on zoning

you cannot fix it

you either accept it for what it is and git gud or move onto games that aren't retardedly broken with horrible communities full of drug addicts and those with personality disorders

i would suggest the latter

Problem:

Players can currently bind in Velious INDOOR dungeons. This is not a classic mechanic.

Binding Guide 2001 (http://web.archive.org/web/20011217064415/http://eqatlas.com/bindguide.html)



Basically what we have right now is an issue where Velious is allowing players to bind themselves anywhere they want (except Kael, which has restrictions on binding outside of entrance areas). Players should only be able to bind in outdoor zones or in cities. However currently players on P99 can bind in indoor dungeons.

This is not classic and it poses an enormous balance issue. Indoor Velious dungeons should not allow players to bind in, caster or Melee with Locket. This means people on P99 can incorrectly bind in:


Tower of Frozen Shadow
Crystal Caverns
Velketor's Labryinth
Dragon Necropolis
Temple of Veeshan
Sleeper's Tomb


For the lower level zones this doesn't present too much of a balance concern. However in Velks, DN, ToV and ST you are able to do some ridiculous trains and pulls that weren't remotely possible in classic via using monks binding with lockets, Necros FDed with non-aggroed pets, instant gate potions and TL boxes. You can bind mages in safe spots in ToV or Velks or DN and gate to instantly set up CotH chains as well.

There is no evidence to suggest you could ever bind in any of these indoor Kunark or Velious zones. All posts about bind spots from classic refer to "behind Sontalak at ToV" or "outside of Sebilis". No one was binding inside these Kunark/Velious dungeons because it wasn't possible, and never has been on Live. Even today you cannot bind characters in these high end dungeons.

Evidence:

Halls of Testing Guide (http://www.monkly-business.net/index.php?pageid=Veeshan)



EQClerics 2001 Bind Talk (http://www.eqclerics.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3192&highlight=Bind+Velious)









EQClerics HoT Guide 2001 (http://www.eqclerics.org/forums/showthread.php?t=10868&highlight=Sontalak+Bind)



Allakhazam Zone Comments (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/zones.html?zstrat=116&p=2#comments)





I'll dig for more but everything here points to suggesting you could not bind inside. There isn't any reason everyone would bind outside when Sontalak could be trained on them when instead they could bind inside ToV in the safe entry room.

Indoor Kunark/Velious dungeons should all be flagged NO bind.

Solution:


Any player with a bind location in one of the above zones should have their bind location reset to East Commonlands (or some default safe zone).
Prevent any player from binding in these zones in the future.

Georgie - I think Checkraise is quoting some other guy from 2015.

So, it's been this way for a while. Now it's a problem? Wonder why this wasn't being addressed when people were binding in ToV to help pulling.

Although.. I think if it was changed like that guy recommended no one would do NToV past Aary.

Evidence: a cleric bound outside behind sontalak, this must mean you can't bind inside. Not only were things not done optimally every first go around. But for the sole reason so you re not stuck in ToV really sells it for me

I was bound behind the Velks zoneline for quite a while during Velious. They did take away the ability to do it and I don't think they changed any existing binds if you were bound there.

If they are using that in TL box warfare then it's fine by my record.

i have never denied the assertion that i'm a sociopath

i enjoy everquest for the outlet of grief that it provides, have always felt and expressed that it has massive design flaws, and have always enjoyed the forums far more than the game itself because it's a very low time investment for equal or more grief

On live they eventually made it so you couldn't bind up by Agnarr BUT.. they didn't change any binds because it was "grandfathered" in. I think much like the TD pots bind.

I do clearly recall telling someone I was bound behind ZL in Velks and when they tried it wouldn't work. Not sure when that date took hold, it wouldn't have been later than a few months into Luclin as that's when I went to Stormhammer on an SK.
