For a naked caster with just store-bought spells.

They are pretty beast mode most of the game.

Do u ever think chain pet agro mechanics will get fixed?

ive seen the videos of the level 14 epic rogues running around crushbone ganking groups like that

A three or 4 person group gets insane exp bonuses on red. You can hit lvl 50 in less than three days carrying naked melees with any solo class. Even wiz probably.

My problem is I can only play 1-2 hrs sometimes and sometimes I just gotta randomly get off. A lot of eq players can't accommodate that from a lvling bud.

That is y I need to kit up a druid alt. Or just get my mage higher. (Solid DS) for helping newbz.

Druid so I can port and sow.

If paisley ganks you, then you'll probably get banned for boxing two characters, so that one will sort itself out.

i feel like u can tell how strong someones work ethic is by how hard they push themselves on eq (and yes i consider eq to be hard work in 2023)

i would rather work a 60 hour week in a factory than have to do some of the 24+ hour camps ive done before

but whenever paisle gets on and starts yawning in my ear im just like okay this bitch lazy af lmao

maybe it just a female thing but idek

I just remembered that the term mage didn’t exist before WoW

Does it actually mean magician because aren’t mages in WoW more like wizards

paisley
01-27-2023, 03:47 AM
It confuses me when people say mage, I’m like, do they mean a fucking magician? I don’t see mage on the class list, fuckfaces.

Jimjam

Mage is abbreviation of magician…

Interestingly “interestingly” SOE/Verant used ‘magi’ to mean the int caster archetype.

WokeCat
01-27-2023, 06:43 AM
IDK how accurate that is. I never saw anyone call a magician a mage until after WoW came out. Actually remember getting cursed out for calling mages "magicians" on WoW when it first released and had people lecture me about mage meaning magic user.

https://i.ibb.co/GWrzyWg/lmaoz1.png

According to WoW their mages are wizards, so like, IDK dude.

Ive seen "mage class" in various MMOs and MOBAs refer to basically any type of pure magic caster, the same way you have the fighter classes, priest classes etc.

i know what people mean when they say mage of course, for the same reason i know what a shammy or chanter means, but i dont think people were running around in 1999 calling magicians mages lol

i think that was picked up after the release of WoW even though it never originally referred to magicians

i just checked, and even everquest lore refers to miragul as a powerful mage btw even though we know him as a necromancer

naw tank mages existed b4 in the lord british game ultima onine and in a few other ones just ur a nerd and not a cool chad so u called urself a wizard

magnetaress
01-27-2023, 09:06 AM
mage is shorthand for magician which contemporarily is not a magic user and is more a clever boi/girl and slight of hand user

magnetaress
01-27-2023, 09:07 AM
but ya i think wow really turned it into an archetype, it was a class in EQ and the connotationoning of summoning stuff is a mage thing too from more of the conjuration school "conjurer' doesn't roll of the tung like 'magician'

WokeCat
01-27-2023, 09:21 AM
so do you remember people calling magicians mages in 1999? because i genuinely dont, in fact i remember being like what the fuck is a magician? I thought it was going to be david copperfield or something

magnetaress
01-27-2023, 10:26 AM
It was new to me when i logged in to EQ

I was like woa there specializations/??? but what is a magician??? if that is what you are getting at

Wizard
Necromancer
And Enchanter made sense to me, magician was a bit of a surprise. I think they just felt it would be too powerful if wizards could be all 4 things or all 3 things. So they hacked out magician class.

magnetaress
01-27-2023, 10:27 AM
considering the UI implimnetation i think they did the right thing that would be a lot of spells to juggle for an 8 gems slots

however they def should have kept wizards and mages the same and given them clarity instead of enchanters

It was crazy. Thankfully a kind duo helped me find it and gifted me this drape so I would stand out against the background.

GNOME CORPES ARE SO SSMOLLL Y!

i considered magician op on early days of green because they could summon those WR bags and go to perma frost and solo the entire zone and loot a ton of fine steel and those heavy ass bricks and make very good $$$ without having to deal with other players

as a cleric/shaman my options were a lot more limited when it comes to making $$$

ppl would be like omg shaman is so op, its like uh, shamans on classic dont have jbb, torpor, or fungi, they dont suck, but they arent like disgustingly op like people make them out

my pet literally be wiping the mobs in sol A and i go complete oom after casting 2 of my DoTs and then almost die

like necro/mage have a much easier time pre kunark and even then, who wants to spend 300k on torpor, fungi/jbb/epic just to be able to farm plat when other classes can do the same thing naked
