project 1999 so broken now last patch was retarded

[doobiesnizax]

yes you guys have now really messed this game up lol...
you could always root and snare at the same time.

they removed dots doing 66% to mobs the very next patch why would you even initiate it.

monks flying kicks cannot do more then 100dmg at lvl 55 lol my personal best flying kick during kunark live was 174 so wtf is wrong here and minimum flying kick damage was set to 58....I have seen 10dmg flying kicks lol

such a fail of a patch...try fixing things that are actually broken like drones of doom/winged death stacking lol

10 patches in they made root/snare stackable. we are far beyond that in the timeline.

and as yo your statement about the 66% dots being removed as untrue...show me where in your crap timeline of patches it states otherwise.

and if they want to be exactly correct with there game progression 2 players shouldn't even be allowed to cast the same dot spell on one mob which we can.

Thats next patch now.

Under "Spells", fourth bullet point down. This is a Luclin-era patch notes, btw.

God what is wrong with people? Even if there was a screw up (which in this case there wasnt) these devs are unpaid volunteers... cut them some slack or go back to live and jump back on the SOE hate bandwagon.

Thinking that this is During SoV Era Though;

It clearly States in the Patch Notes Jan 9 2001

*Root and Snare*

Root-type spells and "snare" type spells now use a separate spell
effect.

Previously, "Root" spells would overwrite any snare effect upon the
target. When the root would wear off, the target began moving at full
speed. With this change, when root wears off, snare will still be in
effect. This has a few added effects on the other end.

For instance, root will no longer cancel SoW or Journeyman's Boots
effects. It also allowed us to correct a long-standing bug that was
allowing bards to cancel root on themselves by playing Selo's
Accelerando if Selo's was in effect at the time that the bard was
rooted. As mentioned in a previous patch where the first part of this
bug was fixed, this was not the intended effect.

Later on Down the patch Notes it states Which is Jan 17 2001;

Bug Fixes*

- Fixed a bug that caused "root" and "snare" type spells to function
incorrectly when stacked. They should now stack properly.

Now Depending on how far we are down the list on the patch notes if we have gotten to the point of where root + snare is stackable then it is wrong ; if we are before this time then it is correct with the timeline reguardless if it was never meant to be the devs imo are going by the timeline. I am a wizard myself and don't like it but this is not my project and this is the way they have been doing it so why change now.

I think it's just because there are some children who play here just like back in the classic era. And they post in the forums too. /shrug

Nothing you or I can do about it. They will grow out of it eventually.

because people want to play here and have fun that is why they post on the forums if people never gave feedback you probably would have alot more issues then you do now so be thankful people take the time to post on the forums about things they dislike...

to make my point why nerf a emu server that was fun to play on because it was all the good parts of classic without all the crap ppl hated and without all the failures of live included and now you want to be exactly like the timelnie and throw these nerfs that were failures on live , people often wonder why when you leave things in like spell sets that are clearly not classic

Fun is subjective. The people running the server wish to maintain the server a certain way, and it's up to you to accept that fact and either move past it or move on.

I've been browsing the forum all day waiting for 1 hour spawn camps and to see if the Erudin boat is finally working, and you're the only one I've seen complaining about some double standard that you perceive as a wrong.

Have you considered that there may be more factors in play that result in spell set options remaining in the default UI? Not likely, because then you couldn't blame the project managers for something totally nonsensical.

I agree w Swish; have some more respect to people offering services to you. Considering you, like the rest of us, are playing this for nostalgic reasons, and are most likely loving it...
