Aggroing through doors and walls

And the resulting dungeon trains is extremely frustrating. I wish this could get fixed somehow. That is all.

It's been like that for 10+ years

It can used to your advantage during Raid encounters as well

shits classic u mad?

not sitting near the walls in some SolB camps to avoid agro trains back in 2000. The game is fucky and if you remove it suddenly some of the challenge is gone. Part of EQ is the shit like this, needing to know where to stand or sit. It's not straight forward.

Shame boomers 20 damn years ago could figure this out while communicating with two cans and some string.

And NEG me giving legit answers in RNF.

Part of the boredom of modern games are their refinements, same is true with modern muscle cars and racing. You are not supposed to just waltz away from a car crash doing a buck 20.

Closest thing I've met to a boomer in 20 some odd years of EQ is a 52 year old here on P99 on green. I't hilarious you dumb fucks keep using a word for people who don't even, and have virtually never, played P99.

Fuck those stupid playboy bunnies.

It's kinda strange cause in some instances they seem to. I was in a room the other day with two mobs and there were three in the one next door. So I kill the two and then head into the next room to clear the 3. I clear the 3 and med and wait for them to respawn (in the meantime, the two mobs in the original room respawned).

When the 3 in the room I'm in now start to respawn, I go to kill them and the two from the original room aggro through the closed door. Yet when I was killing those two mobs in the original room, the 3 from the second room didn't aggro through the door. It was really weird.

Monsters LoS is smaller when you are behind them it’s possible in one case mobs were not facing you.

Yeah that's possible. Although the two in the original room weren't facing me either, they were facing down the hall away from the door.

File under classic and working as intended

I definitely remember specifically avoiding leveling in Unrest in classic because of stuff coming through the walls. The best was dying to random arms punching through walls.

However, I don't remember upper guk having the live zone line mobs run through the walls once someone zones, fall through the world and then port out at the summoner area and path all the way back.

That moment when you see your mob fall through a wall when you are deep in a dungeon is so intoxicating though, separates the maggots from the worms when you see who is smart enough to camp w/o being told

Unrest is one where I haven't had issues on P99. I've killed the Ghoul in the hallway right next to multiple doors before and none of the mobs have come through it. I have had issues in Guk and Befallen like this though, and sometimes in Highkeep.

That is classic EQ from live. Door, wall, floor,roof aggro, oh the good old days.

It seems worse on here by far than it ever was on live, but I understand this is a small staff so not everything can be perfect

Been this way since 1999?

I'm 59, and I played in old EQ on E'Ci, and I'm playing on Green in Project 1999 right now. So now you met one.

Some of the guys playing original EQ would've been at the tail end of the boomer era. Hence, 20 damn years ago. They would have been in their mid-late 30's when EQ released which is the same age I am now on P99.

My joke sucks shit now because I have had to explain it.

Gen Y in here asking for this to be fixed like it is a bad thing. He needs to fix himself, not the game. Thinking about my boomer roommates getting their pretty pink panties in a knot because they did something stupid.

I was young, 18, when it released. Imagine me saying "they need to fix that" and they would look at me then tell me to stop doing dumb shit. There was a thread in here about someone or some group sitting in the middle of a pull path and complaining about getting agro.. If only Darwin gave Xbox achievements for getting your shit ran over.

Lol. I guess I wouldn't mind the aggroing through doors and walls if it was consistent. Seems like some walls and doors mobs won't aggro through, but in other areas they will.
