Temple of Solusek Ro, Pet Taking XP

[Rogean]

Greetings,

Solusek Temple is now available to players. The appropriate timeline item nerfs (Manastone, Jboots, Rubicite, Guise of Deceiver) will be happening within a week or two, get em while ya can.

Also, We have decided that we will revert the changes from today's patch related to pets taking 50% of the XP when doing 50%+ of damage to the mob. We will instead be making it so if the owner does not do atleast 1 point of damage to a mob, they will lose 75% of the XP.

Thanks for the feedback.

Pet Experience:

i just did some solo-kills and got like 1/10 blue for a blue and like 1/8 for a yellow kill.
Im a necro (at that time 17, now 18) using pet and dots.
There were 2 kills i got normal exp.. one where i Lifetap'd the crap out of it..
and the second one was when i killed my pet short befor the mob died.

So seems if im not doing 75% dmg, i lose great amount of experience.. (that 75% is just a guess but sounds about right)

wtb fix kk thx

[muffin]

So what if the mage is in the group and does no damage?

Did you just blindly make a post without reading the topic or anything?

[Dabamf]

Great news.

I'm going to check on manastone camp just to laugh at the fact that 20 people are in line.

doesn't this mean i do 1 point of damage and dont lose 75% xp?

[Zordana]

nevermind me, i read it as if you already implemented those changes :)

obviously i am blind

[Malrubius]

You guys rock, as usual. Thank you!

[Aaron]

I'm glad it's been implemented. I would've preferred you guys just stop dropping Manastone, Rubi, etc without telling us as opposed to having everyone scramble to those spots for the next two weeks, but eh..

[Ghesta]

Well, there goes my chance of guise. :(

[SwordNboard]

Experience still seems a tad shy? Anyone else? I've tested by throwing all my mana in nukes at a mob, and only using 1 nuke and letting pet finish with heals. Same exp, mind you, just seems.. less.

Exp is correct in this patch. Reread this post, they are reversing this pet issue.

[SwordNboard]

I can read, thanks.

Some people just took Rogean's announcement on the server as a hotfix and wanted some clarification.

[joe]

Well, there goes my chance of guise. :(

LOL yea this is how I feel about Rubi .. I missed it by being to low back in original ... and I'll be in the same situation this time around too lol ... casual gaming FTL ... but its all good, I'm still playing and it feels so much like home after wandering around through the wastelands of MMOs that never felt as good .... Awesome job guys, Keep it up!!!

[Ghesta]

Rubi is tradeable tho.

[WyldGunz]

When does the pet fix go into effect? Hoping to have an idea of when it will be worth my time to play again. As of now its still the same i cant get crap for exp.

[ogrelord]

Yeh I too missed out on this stuff the first time around. I will have to run my level 3 into guk to get a mask :)

Is it just those 4 items that will be gone? and can you push for 2 weeks? haha... :P

and yay on the pets. thanks!

[Aaron]

Greetings and Welcome to Everquest. I have played eq since 1999 played a monk on live mainly, on bristlebane until about 2006, then played druids and a few other classes on rallos zek for about a year or more, then played on the other eqemu servers for a bit and now, im psyched to start playing here. I do have 1 request!:):):D

Could you possibly hold out on nerfing all the awesome items for a bit so i can get my hands on 1? haha i know its farfetched, however.. im waiting to get my new computer from dell and its gonna be a bit.. thanks.

again i cant wait to come join your server.. Oh and my 2 cents on the idea of allowing boxing multiple toons. I think 2boxing should be the max, i think it adds alot of fun to the game as it gives people the ability to at least duo by themselves if they cant find a group, and still if needing to fill a certain role in a group and no one is a round to join, someone can use one of their characters..(i dont like the term toons):eek:

[TheDudeAbides]

Have you guys fixed Tarn Visilin yet?

Thank you for your new viewpoint on the subject that's been most beaten to death on the server.

Is this the current game mechanics of pet XP? If not, what is it?

[Odeseus]

You have to do more of the dmg than the pet or else the pet will take half (or more) of the xp. You can get around this by killing your pet when the mob starts to flee and then finish it with a nuke or dot. Makes soloing as a pet class for xp quite annoying.

Temple is not open on Red... so its not open to all players.

This thread was created before the blight that is red was around

[Rovas]

Thanks for the update!! Time to get to work on that necro. =D

[Jakob]

So does Rubi still drop or has it been removed by now?

[Serin]

This is a necro post, if you look at the date it's from February 2010.. Someone just psyched you out..

Bleh, I looked at the date of the original post and for some reason thought it said "2/18/2012." My stupid.
