Here's some attention
he's literally not wrong, but it's also not what this project is for. protip velious is a terrible fucking expansion. i don't even think everquest is a "good" game anymore to be honest, once you actually "beat" it all you see is it's massive flaws and incompetent design choices the devs made.

Sorry you don't got
that's quite literally one of the design problems, the ones that DO got only care because others don't got. and the ones that actually did the thing and got theirs first. already fucked off to games that don't suck years before green even launched.
seek Christ and game's that don't suck.
hope this doesn't help.

velious is a soso expac it is kinda terrible and it caters to the insane raiders
same with luclin sort of too
anything that requires a VP key or long 20 month quest where u compete with other ppl is bad game design

that is not to say velious doesnt have a few solid points to it.
also
p99 is an abandoned project
there are things that don't work here and never will - for example swimming up on to boats in the middle of the ocean, that do work on other clients,
i honestly do not want a mass exodus of p99 players to other clients tho because the majority of p99 players should be playing WoW not EQ

Well I guess you better work harder than the next guy and keep the uber guild from doing it.
Go on, it's not a hard game.

They should allow the sleeper to get awakened in a form of giving money to a quest NPC. multiquestable
constantly takes platinum until a random variant threshold gets hit. can be anything from 500k to 10m plat

People enjoy EQ because of scarcity. It's a rare thing in MMO's these days. If that wasn't the case, P99 would have died a long time ago, since people would be playing easier MMO's like WoW, or even just TLP.

Stop being bad.
The have nots will always be have nots. The people who are haves, and weren’t around for ST warders don’t complain. As they are haves, and not have nots.
The only thing wrong with it is people thinking their voice matters. Go be better. If you’re whinging you never would have got ST loot. If it dropped now you still wouldn’t get outside of drafts. It’s a competitive server.

should be in the trillions of plat if not whatever comes after trillion becuase this way too fast
sleeper should be up for 3+ years most servers
nah, it's just straight up terrible game design. + sunk cost fallacy
sleeper's tomb 6man / raid on live from the 2020 expansion is better than the real velious expansion. and the new kunark expansion before that was pretty fucking good too.

You people are bums and your lack of work ethic will cost you warder loot and so much more
That's what needs to change, not EverQuest

Its inarguably shitty game design to allow players to permanently delete content, but its even stupider to let them do it on a time-locked server.

Age old tactic, they realize the power and sway whining and the threat of a boycott has
They will never be rpg masters and it hurts
shits classic
it's literally one of if not the only actual classic thing that remains on p99. i'd bet a fat sack of raid loot if it was allowed, they 100% respawn warders on blue or whatever server ends up being the dumpster they put blue, green, whatever is next characters on to make the casuals happy. anyone that disagrees with that literally hasn't been here long enough and i know for a fact toxigen you have.
literally everyone should of left when they rooted dragons. hope this helps.

seems like an obvious thing to enable a reset mechanic after progression ends. there's nothing 'classic' about p99 players continuing to play the game after luclin would have launched, anyway. velious never lasted that long.
they could make it a turn-in quest where you need a number of no-drop quest items from velious raid bosses (like AoW / Vulak / Tunare) and once you collect enough you can hand them in to respawn the warders... and then they have a 1 month protection on them which prevents all 4 from dying, after which they can
make the number of items to respawn the warders (and enable 1 month protection) high enough that it takes a few months of securing AoW/Vulak/Tunare to reset them after wake
guilds would be invested in still securing the main bosses (either to reset the warders, or to prevent others from doing it), and once reset would be motivated to secure the tomb, but with a 1-month protection guarantees at least 3-4 cycles of warder loot per reset before it gets woken again

As much as it can be a feel bad to be a member of the don't got club, DSM is correct. The scarcity of things is what makes the dopamine hits bigger and more memorable.
Once raid token vendors became a thing in WoW, loot exclusivity was immediately watered down, people got geared up way faster, and a lot of people lost motivation to raid week after week because they would "finish" their character faster.
The scarcity of things is what makes the dopamine hits bigger and more memorable.
which is almost exclusively reserved for warder loot now which is a non issue for literally anyone normal. blue in the kunark era had everything including epics on lockdown.
just because you can do a thing doesn't mean you should. and they have slowly over time realized that, only thing left is to add warders to that list and 3 daily quakes per time zone and the conversion to casual theme park will be complete.

I'm not mad about it personally. I'm mad about what it and the behavior does to the community. Which basically destroyed it.
And the fact that its not at all classic.
If you got warder loot and sleeper you didn't earn it. It got handed to you on a platter. It's not the achievement you guys are saying it is.
Not until it takes thousands of man hours over several days to wake the sleeper.

Put sleeper back in. Total number of each item can’t change. So if a shroud drops, one of the existing ones just disappears.
Laugh when detoxx loses his sod’s, or diamond suddenly down 15hp in a PD robe. Etc.

Yeah there's already a solution for keeping Kerafym down.
Either lock down the mobs yourself or don't be scumbag pieces of shit to the Uber guild and they will spare you. It was absolutely an option this time, and it was blown because some people just cannot help themselves.

Every active monk main got one in ST, even like 5 alts got one. We had some pretty crazy luck with the triple drops.

Double loot on p99 is almost 'normal' loot for live. Dragon individual drops here are significantly lower. 1-2 drops here compared to 3-5 drops on live for most dragons.
And isn't vulak supposed to be 3 different loot tables so there is never the same item?

resleep st.
When you loot an ST drop, every item from every character your IP has ever logged in to gets deleted.
Double loot on p99 is almost 'normal' loot for live.
that's a weird argument. pretty sure p99 blue has more kunark/velious loot than all the live servers back in the day. like none of this is fucking normal
normal Eq was me not getting my epic, p99 let me have my epic. this shit ain't classic, its casual.

P99 wasn't casual until like 2016.
Still, the aim of the place is classic. So why not make it classic.
