View Full Version : Truth about the current resist system (screenshots)

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BECOME BRAINDEAD THEN DON'T BOTHER READING THE COMMENTS IN THIS THREAD. IT'S FULL WITH FLAMES/DRAMA AND STUPID SHIT. The only relevant thing in this thread is this first post with information.
I decided to log on and actually test resists for real and take some screenshots since there are numerous dumb retards on these forum spreading lies. Not a single one of them actually have a 50 char on beta with good resists. So I wouldn't even spend 1 second listening to a single word they say.
Anyway after reading their bullshit I decided to log and try root before I head out. When I get back home I'm gonna do similar tests with every spell I have.
I posted a comment on every root I casted if it actually hit me.
a) 0.1 seconds basically means that it's off before you even notice you've been rooted. It just stop your char and then you can click forward instantly to move again.
b) 0.5 is similar to 0.1 but like a micro second longer, both these is basically like having a full resist.
Here is the screensshots!

I have no freaking clue how the so called TZVZ system worked cause I haven't played this game for 8-10 years. But I'm loving the way this system works. With high resists you can get CC'd but when you do it will last a really short time. There is also no way to lock someone down with a system like this which many people complained about. Sure if you have like 4 people spammin CC on you then you can probably locked down quite well. But CMON if you're in a 1v5 1v6 situation then you deserve to be locked down and killed. On top of that more then half the classes have ways off getting out of CC anyway so most of you will be able to escape 1v5 situations anyway. I know I will on a Wizard at least. Every class has access to instant dispell as well.

And as I posted in the other thread:
You're landing tons of roots over and over on yourself with 140MR which is a lot more than most rogues and monks will have in classic. Something like 100-120MR is what a well geared rogue will have and a monk will have probably 80-100. Don't even try to pretend like everyone on the server will have a Tranix crown plus Jacinth rings either.
With lower resist, they last longer and land even easier. You claim the duration is too short to matter, but this just leaves the door open for Null to change it to whatever he wants at any time before beta closes or after release.
If all it takes to get a free kill is one guy spamming you with a constant stream of roots and snares while another guy does damage, then it's gonna be mindless, no-talent, zerg based PvP.

people who have had their first experience with eq pvp in this beta should not really be telling others "its fine, stfu and deal with it" since your talking out of your ass.
But CMON if you're in a 1v5 1v6 situation then you deserve to be locked down and killed.
that quote is not eq it is the typical wow zerg mentality, maneuverability allowed small numbers and solos to still go up against zergs without being 100% certain of a dirtnap.
i dont really care a whole lot about cc spells one way or the other, this change will allow me to actually kill bards and i will just avoid anything more than 2 or so players at a time, the issue is not that it lands for 1 - 4 seconds on average, the issue is that it removes speed buffs and therefore when it breaks you are still effectively snared anyway.
even if you have jboots to hit once it breaks, your foes likely have sow.

its good enough , we going to bicker and let them wait another month to roll the server? The resist checks work semi fine , spell dmg is reduced , stuff ill have to deal with
at least theres no 40% Rule

Yep, this is a indirect nerf to classes with SoW because root/snare overrides SoW even if it lands for .1 second. In classic, these spells would almost never land at all on someone with 140 MR.

First of all Darwoth you're an idiot if you think I have a zerg mentality. I basically only solo PVP and I'm the only member in my guild and I don't plan on inviting anyone else either. I don't freaking care if 100 people chase me. You have loads of ways to escape. Most classes even have gate and if you don't have that then fkin buy a GATE POTION? It's not to hard.. Oh and if you don't wanna spend time farming PP or items you need to escape from these situations then you definitely deserve to die. The system you seem to like is one where a player can have FULL RAID GEAR and basically be invincible. I've already experienced that system in EQ PVP and it's beyond lame. Personally I prefer a challenge. I know ill have good gear on live and all the best utility items and I prefer to have a challenge with people actually landing spells on me. Then me running around in godlike and laughing at people who try to CC me. I understand why bad players would like a system like that. But hey some of us like a challenge.
2nd people who have had their first experience with eq pvp in this beta should not really be telling others "its fine, stfu and deal with it" since your talking out of your ass.
You have no clue what kind of EQ pvp experience I have. After playing EQ for 4 months I won the Test of Tactics on my server. Then I came 2nd in the SERVERWIDE Test of Tactics tournament where we lost to Afterlife in the final. On the way to the final we destroyed the TWO best teams the PVP servers had to offer. I could go on with numerous of more pvp achievements I had but I really dislike bragging on forums. Pwning you guys in game is enough for me.
Makeyoumad you're still just talking out of your ass like a complete idiot. Have you tried casting CC at 80-100MR or 100-120MR? No you haven't so you should stfu like usual. Also if you guys didn't realize it by now. RED99 is not CLASSIC EVERQUEST nor are they trying to make it CLASSIC EVERQUEST.
Also, any smart developer will cater for the majority of their playerbase and that's the casuals and not the hardcore players like myself. With that in mind I'm sure the majority of the people will want a system where they actually have a chance vs raid geared people instead of them walking around immune to all spells the casuals cast on them.
I know Darwoth is a hardcore player since he's online 24/7 on the beta and I assume this Makeyourmad guy is one as well. The only thing you two seem to care about is having an even higher advantage vs the casual players then what you already have with playing way more and having better gear + more utility items. Personally I hope the developers will just go with their own vision and not listen to everyone here on the forums since most here are just trying to get an advantage for themselves with their posts.

I haven't really been commenting on any of these resist threads because frankly I don't know anything about classic resists and the most recent pvp box I played on before here was VZTZ. Not that I didn't play on a pvp server back in classic, its just that I played on TZ on live when I was 14 and that was almost a decade ago, so how the fuck would I remember anything. I couldn't even tell you what I ate for lunch yesterday.
So because of these reasons I just keep my mouth shut. All I would like to say however is this:

How about you post proof that is wasn't that way. You won't find anything disproving Arillious because it was never changed until PoP so Sony never post patch notes on it.
I ran around on RZ with 100 to 120 MR and I only got rooted once in a year. Can i find links or patch notes proving this? No. Because that is the way it was and was never changed.

god i hate when you talk, it sounds like a bunch of annoying gnats with a high pitched buzzing in your ear, you try to ignore them but their just to fucking annoying.
1> i know how much eq pvp experience you have because you told me when you were busy bragging about being part of "the best wow guild in the world" (lol) you have zero, you played on a blue server. go fuck yourself.
2> while i always have gate pots, most will not and most do not want to spend 1100p or camp the cenobite for hours on end just to escape a bunch of no talent assclowns because their MR doesnt work.
3> you dont impress me or anyone else in spite of how much you run your cocksucker in game, on the boards and probably in your sleep. you selected the easiest most dumbed down class in the game to play and zoom around two shotting people that have no resists, if i was a betting man i would say you wont last past the first 3 months of the server when the average player is not a naked fishbait but instead someone thats been around the block a few times.
4> your post about "you want to run around in full raid gear and be a god!" shows your complete lack of knowledge and precisely why you should shut the fuck up, THIS IS NOT WORLD OF WARCRAFT "full raid gear" did not make anyone immune to shit except crowd control, which newb gear also did. "full raid gear" will be much more of a factor under the current system if it is not tweaked by the time planar/kunark comes out as damage spells resist exponentially more here than classic live.
and yes, im sure you "already experienced that system" over on the blue server, give me a fucking break.
it is an even more stupid comment given the fact that i wont ever have raid gear.
in any case, continue ignoring the point i made about the relevant topic (such as i dont care much one way or the other about the current cc resists, there you go looking stupid again. or the speed stacking issue) and spewing shit in my direction because i injured your fragile ego by pointing out how you know a heaping amount of jack shit.

All that and then you got laid out? DAAAAAAAAAAAANG LET ME HANG MY HEAD I SAID DANG LET ME HANG MY HEAD LOVELY.
In all seriousness caring about the resists is pretty dumb! At the end of the day we will all have to play with the same system. What i mean to say is regardless of the resist system the players who are better than average are still going to come out on top.

Wow you're so full of shit Darwoth. We both know I was AFK/ALT TABBED at gfay Wiz spire. I had played on the server for 2 days and it was my first time playing Wizard. Nor was I level 50 or had any gear at all. I had full cloth and not a single item with stats and resists. When you jumped me afk, I had just gotten ICE COMET like 30 seconds before that. I hadn't even used it on a mob before so when you came I wanted to see how it did in pvp and I was 0.2 seconds away from hitting a comet just before you hit your nuke which would have killed you instead. Anyway I doesn't matter. We both know I haven't died a single time at level 50 after learning how to play a Wizard properly. I've also owned you and your chanter buddy 1v2 in numerous occasions and let me dig out some SS of it you baddie. You know you run from me every time you see me now at level 50 and you'll continue doing so forever and ever as long I play this game. I also asked you right after if you wanted to 1v1 which you didn't dare even though you had a level advantage on me.
Oh... he made it seem like this was your 1v1 after all the shit talk.
I demand a new 1v1!
Self buffs only.
Winner gets to talk shit.
Darwoth
10-22-2011, 01:35 PM
gear was equal, you weren't afk, i had watched you cast at least one buff as i tracked toward you, you "owned" a naked enchanter that never played the game before the patch when 65 resistance made one immune and dispells didnt work.
whats relevant here however is not your dirtnap, it is your whining for a duel after eating one, it demonstrates your mentality. just like yesterday where you were owned by rigamortiz in spite of the half dozen redwoods, hoop spam and golem wands and ran off at the mouth in ooc for a half hour.
my intention is not to point out that you suck, it is to point out you dont know shit about what you speak of. mission accomplished, continue as you please.

10-22-2011, 01:45 PM
lol I was afk and alt tab and you know it. You dotted me way before I even moved and I had no clue where you were cause I came back from afk being alt tabbed. I wasn't even level 50 anyway so I don't really care one bit.
We both know I've never died at level 50 no matter how many people attack me and that I've raped you and your 50 enchanter fully buffed in 2v1 several times. And here I can show you
Darwoth and Mocmorna 50 druid and 50 enchanter d full hp, full mana and fully buffed waiting for me to come at the Lguk zone in.

Destroyed both and they both zoned and then Darwoth cried like a bitch about a bugged resist system when it affect us both equally.
http://imageshack.dk/imagesfree/uqa05091.jpg
Then 10 min later after Darwoth and Mocmorna was full hp and fully buffed and full mana again they came back to Upperguk. I asked if I could get a clarity cause i couldn't be arsed fighting them again. He didn't reply but I ran to them anyway in hope to get a clarity. The second I arrived Darwoth spammed 5 charges of golem wands on me and him and Mocmorna started chasing me. So I decided to man up and managed to kill Mocmorna in 3 nukes. Then I had to gate cause I was oom

I'm rdy to fight you anytime on beta 1v1, you can even go get buffs from every class before i face you. I don't really care. Level 50 vs level 50 all day anytime. This goes for anyone on the server. Cause I enjoy to pvp I don't care if your class has an upperhand I'm ready to log on for 1v1 anytime. Whoever it is.

Level 49 and 50 is a HUUUGE difference on this beta. Every single 49 on the server won't have a single piece of gear. You had been 50 for days when I was 49 cause I started a week late on the beta.

did not seem to be a huge difference in the one spell you managed to land before being killed.
likewise my combo of leather and foremans tunic probably didnt factor much into the equation.

You're even more stupid then I thought. PUMICE? If you had any clue about this beta you would know that you resist them 100% on yourself you tool. I used cancel magic 3 times to remove your dot and that was it and you didn't chase me for more then 2 minutes. You're really good at lying though. It's funny that you'd say you chased me for 30 minutes without being able to kill me because I resist every nuke and dots I cancel magic during your cast. Also never lost a single buff by using cancel magic on myself lol. Only buff I ever removed was jboots.
Seems I know a lot more about pvp then you already. If you don't realize I just remove jboots when you dot me and use cancel magic and then jboots again. Guess I passed your knowledge in a few weeks after your 10 years of EQ lol.

no, you resisted them over a threshold of mr, like every other resist.
the reason i knew you were using pumice instead of a memmed spell is because of your jboot spam, ie once you ran out youd have to contend with the buffed mr and mem dispel, which is why you gated.
please kill yourself.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I WANT TO BE HATED, I WANT PEOPLE TO CHASE ME AND TRY TO KILL ME. That is my goal cause I enjoy the action. I've been trying to find fights EVERY single day I've been online on the beta but NO ONE want to fight me so I just end up chasing and killing everyone instead which is a lot more boring then actually having duels when both are ready. Not really hard to pick off people at XP camps or that are farming items when they most likely aren't even fully buffed, or have full mana or have the correct spells up.

no, you resisted them over a threshold of mr, like every other resist.
the reason i knew you were using pumice instead of a memmed spell is because of your jboot spam, ie once you ran out youd have to contend with the buffed mr and mem dispel, which is why you gated.
please kill yourself.
Are you trolling me now? You were immune to every spell at that point in the beta. Do you think I had less then 65 MR lol? I had never ever bought a pumice until yesterday cause they didn't work when Flip tried them on me a few weeks ago. Same with nullify magic. I always had jboots on first buff so when you cast dot I remove it and cast cancel magic while you're also casting and taking 0 damage. Then I jboots again and repeat. If you didn't realize that which I hear you didn't. Makes you FKIN AWFULLLL BEYOND AWFUL and you have to adjust your play and learn how people deal with druids.
I gated cause I wanted to med up LOL. There was no point in fighting anyone that had over 65 MR/FR/CR during that point in beta cause everything resisted and I also told you that in a PM.

the biggest difference between now and classic eq is the people playing, for example.
ten years ago you could eventually win an argument with a moron because they would finally realize just how fucking stupid they looked and become embarassed and stfu.

No. 100% classic seems to be the worst pvp ever. So I'd rather want a custom one. Being able to resist all roots,snares, stuns etc with 100% is a joke.

gear was equal, you weren't afk, i had watched you cast at least one buff as i tracked toward you, you "owned" a naked enchanter that never played the game before the patch when 65 resistance made one immune and dispells didnt work.
whats relevant here however is not your dirtnap, it is your whining for a duel after eating one, it demonstrates your mentality. just like yesterday where you were owned by rigamortiz in spite of the half dozen redwoods, hoop spam and golem wands and ran off at the mouth in ooc for a half hour.
my intention is not to point out that you suck, it is to point out you dont know shit about what you speak of. mission accomplished, continue as you please.
Yes Lovely absolutely loves to run his cockflapper nonstop in beta... I havent farmed shit but a nobles robe and focus on Dontbrag, "few golem wands" and shit all over him yesterday in Innothule (thats without the ability to dispel my own pet which is still broken)... Kid literally "hooped" my pet (which i am to this day laughing my balls off) then gate poted to prevent the kill shot...
Thats neither here nor there, I've fought you/flip numerous times way back once I reached 50 with broken resists and nullifys and you got schooled (cried cause I used Bouncer Herd to my advantange in a 2v1 one time lol).."Incoming Gloat of the screenshot he 1 shotted my mage at 42 with his 50 ice comet" .....
The experienced players are hardly impressed by your cockhole flapping non-stop as most of the "good" players you wont see until release.
Darwoth is pretty much spot on.. I think Lovely fails to understand root and the point Darwoth is trying to address here... Its not the fact that it seems to be resisted and or land briefly with decent resists, its the fact that It Removes SoW "even if it lands only for .000002 seconds", giving the aggressors a huge advantage in chasing you down with melee trains etc..
Like pointed out, you can have Jboots but SoW will make a huge difference in this particular instance...

Like I said before. You think it's all sunshine and fairy tales until some smart people come along like a chanter who knows wtf he is doing and interrupts your casts with his mez/stuns while his shitty pet slowly eats your health.
You guys think that Verant just threw the PVP system out there and left it alone. They made a lot of changes to help 'balance' PVP. They knew the consequences allowing CC-type spells to land. When you have defined class rolls and not all classes have some type of CC, it really throws the balance off towards the people who have the CC abilities.
There are some experienced, smart players who will exploit the shit out of this system.
EDIT: Allowing root/snare to land is just as detrimental to casters, too. Wait till you have an SK or Paladin spam root/snare on you while smashing your face. Altergate was a good example of that.

If SoW wasn't removed (VZTZ) this system would work fine. The fact that we'll lose SoW even though root/snare will last for half a second at 130+ MR is crippling to non rooting/snaring classes.

Yeah, Lovely is pretty good at giving examples when the resist system was broken and nothing would land on her.

Yes if I used any kind of instant gate Ill be happy to take a permanent ban and if not you take on, cause that's one of the many lies you spread in every post you make. I already had that kobold on me I was running around looking for the NPC with Ivandyr's hoop cause I wanted to bind at it to do some beta testing with Ivandyr's. You jumped me right beside guards yes and It's an AWFUL place to fight for a Wizard. You also instantly used golem wands on me. I didn't wanna fight at that location cause I could actually die if I yondered into guards. Still tried to fight a little but I had to flee since the spot was THE WORST possible for a wizard and especially with fkin mobs on me from running around in the zone + guards like a few yards away. Then I ran away and I asked you for 1v1 ANYWHERE that wasn't beside guards and you declined like a pussy and this is the truth and you know it.

Yep, this is a indirect nerf to classes with SoW because root/snare overrides SoW even if it lands for .1 second. In classic, these spells would almost never land at all on someone with 140 MR.

We both know I've never died at level 50 no matter how many people attack me and that I've raped you and your 50 enchanter fully buffed in 2v1 several times. And here I can show you
Darwoth and Mocmorna 50 druid and 50 enchanter d full hp, full mana and fully buffed waiting for me to come at the Lguk zone in.

Then 10 min later after Darwoth and Mocmorna was full hp and fully buffed and full mana again they came back to Upperguk. I asked if I could get a clarity cause i couldn't be arsed fighting them again. He didn't reply but I ran to them anyway in hope to get a clarity. The second I arrived Darwoth spammed 5 charges of golem wands on me and him and Mocmorna started chasing me. So I decided to man up and managed to kill Mocmorna in 3 nukes.

god i hate when you talk, it sounds like a bunch of annoying gnats with a high pitched buzzing in your ear, you try to ignore them but their just to fucking annoying.
1> i know how much eq pvp experience you have because you told me when you were busy bragging about being part of "the best wow guild in the world" (lol) you have zero, you played on a blue server. go fuck yourself.
2> while i always have gate pots, most will not and most do not want to spend 1100p or camp the cenobite for hours on end just to escape a bunch of no talent assclowns because their MR doesnt work.
3> you dont impress me or anyone else in spite of how much you run your cocksucker in game, on the boards and probably in your sleep. you selected the easiest most dumbed down class in the game to play and zoom around two shotting people that have no resists, if i was a betting man i would say you wont last past the first 3 months of the server when the average player is not a naked fishbait but instead someone thats been around the block a few times.
4> your post about "you want to run around in full raid gear and be a god!" shows your complete lack of knowledge and precisely why you should shut the fuck up, THIS IS NOT WORLD OF WARCRAFT "full raid gear" did not make anyone immune to shit except crowd control, which newb gear also did. "full raid gear" will be much more of a factor under the current system if it is not tweaked by the time planar/kunark comes out as damage spells resist exponentially more here than classic live.
and yes, im sure you "already experienced that system" over on the blue server, give me a fucking break.
it is an even more stupid comment given the fact that i wont ever have raid gear.
in any case, continue ignoring the point i made about the relevant topic (such as i dont care much one way or the other about the current cc resists, there you go looking stupid again. or the speed stacking issue) and spewing shit in my direction because i injured your fragile ego by pointing out how you know a heaping amount of jack shit.

according to lovely and his screenshots the resistance system was working properly when he nukes for 600 on a target with 90 - 130 cr (cant remember what i had at the time) and gets nuked for 9 with 60 fr.

according to lovely and his screenshots the resistance system was working properly when he nukes for 600 on a target with 90 - 130 cr (cant remember what i had at the time) and gets nuked for 9 with 60 fr.

He had a rune on, you can see right before the 9 it says his skin returns to normal. Assuming Diamondskin, it was 394 absorbed + 9 overflow for a nuke of 403.

i know he had a rune, tried to dispel it but that wasnt working at the time either. out of all the nukes i landed on him only one did more than 32, and it said 390 pretty sure thats the one that broke the rune, was the first or second nuke.
one did 9 damage, then there was a string of 32's, and some 20s. hard to discern via the hack and slash screencaps, but either way shit wasn't working correctly.

I haven't really been commenting on any of these resist threads because frankly I don't know anything about classic resists and the most recent pvp box I played on before here was VZTZ. Not that I didn't play on a pvp server back in classic, its just that I played on TZ on live when I was 14 and that was almost a decade ago, so how the fuck would I remember anything. I couldn't even tell you what I ate for lunch yesterday.
So because of these reasons I just keep my mouth shut. All I would like to say however is this:
Stop saying this shit without some kind of fucking proof. You're one liner about 'classic' with zero evidence is not going to be taken seriously by anyone. Get some links or shut. the. fuck. up.
Did you play eq in classic? If so then you know that at 140 MR, you would ALMOST never be rooted or snared. There always seemed to be that one out of a 100 chance that it would still land, but it was enough that no one really tried to cast root or snare unless they were tashed or malo'd. I'm not sure if proof is needed, anyone from that era can back me up on this one.

Yeah sounds like the truth. That's why it took 3 comets to kill the chanter and the finishing blow hit for like 100 dmg or less, the lowest possible a comet can hit. So I guess being naked is stronger then having high CR. Oh and the resist system worked exactly the same for me, you and the 50 enchanter. So I don't see why you cry about resist system when you had better GEAR for one, two versus one and all 3 are casters. Makes no sense really

Stein of mogokk? I've never seen a player on beta have one, pretty sure the quest was bugged but I'm not sure. I said I didn't have a single item that gave resists. I probably had 1-3 items with INT stats, but it might only been oracle robe I don't remember exactly. I started getting resist gear about a week ago cause I never needed any to pwn you noobs.

You're a fkin idiot. Who are you in game on the beta and live btw? How does it benefit me who only solo pvp pretty much. Like people said here, it's only really useful in a group of people with dedicated root/snare spammers. It's gonna be way more annoying for me that will have way over 100+ cause now I'll actually be CC'd by zergs that attack me. So it's definitely something bad for me personally. If I want a system that benefit me it would be godmode system aka Vanilla cause I will have higher resists and better gear then most people.

None of those items had any affect on our fight lol. It's something that doesn't matter at all. It's also not lying, it's not exactly remembering what gear you had at level 49. I'm sure not a single player here would remember the exact item they had at certain levels on a 10x beta where you get 20+ levels a day if you exp properly. I know for a fact that I didn't farm resist gear the first weeks of being 50 even. Most people that I've pvp against can confirm that even Darwoth. Not that he would confess it. I had 100% INT items until about a week ago. (I was even trashed in /ooc by Holocaust basically everyday for running around in cloth at level 50 for ages, which I found kinda funny cause I destroyed them without having any proper resist gear)
Dunno why you wanna talk about nonsense that doesn't matter one bit. Probably cause you're a hurt scrub and got nothing else to cry about.

the enchanter had more than 750 hp, out of the 15 or so nukes cast the killing blow was the only one that didn't do respectable damage. out of the 10 or so i threw around i had exactly one hit for more than 32 damage, out of every single spell the enchanter cast outside of tash nothing did anything.
i had twice the relevant resists than you per your own admission.
that is not equal droolcup, it is bugged.
ice comet has a negative modifier, the wizard class itself on this server was given a negative modifier and you remain a retard.

Only one remaining a retard is you. You only hit me with 2-3 nukes total in the 2 fights. I believe and the first one did 400+ on my diamond skin. Dunno what the second did but I was in OOT at 40% after I gated so the others definitely did "respectable damage". Yes Ice comet has a negative modifier and so does all INT casters I believe? I'm not sure about this.
So what? That has nothing to do with the resist system and those things will remain no matter what. Obviously a Wizard is gonna be better at nuking then a Druid you dumbass. You have dots, heals and other shit as well dunno what you are crying about.

I will give you a heads up since you're a blubie and have no EQ PvP experience. People are going to play a lot differently when server goes live. When you jump someone, they are going to run. Period. If they don't then they probably have buddies somewhere close or are letting their ego take control. Then again, they could just have massive resist gear and not fear you at all. But I will say that 95% of the smart players will run knowing that with your big nukes you will have a huge advantage. Well, guess what? Root being viable helps you out... a LOT. Lets say you jump Darwoth. He is unprepared because he just ported in and is low on mana or whatever. He runs (and wisely so). Root fucks him in his ass. Hard. Even if it only lasts for a split second. Advantage: you.

You can turn that situation around as well. A wizard jumps me when I just ported in and then I'm screwed. I don't really see how this benefit me a Solo PVPER. You're just making retarded statements over and over.

How fucking stupid are you really? Also I don't give a flying shit about dying afk at a Wiz spire at level 49 to a level 50, the most funny fact is that I was half a second away from killing him when coming back from afk at 80% hp. I even manned up unprepared vs a higher level player even though I wasn't full hp and had a dot on me that removes like 80% of my hp if it isn't dispelled. During that time i didn't even know I could dispell dots lol. But since then things have changed and after learning most of the shit I gotta know I'm destroying every single experienced player on the beta.
I've never even died at level 50 and from the looks of it I probably never will until the beta is over. Personally I'll be happy to fight some good experienced PVPers if there are any of you out there?? It's good to get a whoopped now and then and actually die. The best way to learn is always from your mistakes. It's just a bit sad that most of the players seem to do all their talking on forums instead of in game like yourself. I'm game for fighting any of you anytime. Just tell me when and I'll try to be there. So far not a single player has stepped up the task. I'm even running around with 1k pp most of the time since I have no fear of dying at all. Man up and challenge me!

Thanks my goal is to be a pain the ass for retards like yourself who are full of themselves even though they are bad, bad, bad to the bone!
Funny enough I'm not disliked at all in game. Most people seem to like me a lot since I'm getting spammed with tells non stop and there isn't even many people playing the beta lol! I'm actually having huge problems finding people to kill because I've befriended most of the people in my range. If you actually read /ooc you'll see loads of people cheering on me when I kill scrubs like yourself. The only people who disliked me in game so far is people who I've killed or destroyed in fights. Actually that last sentence isn't true. Let me change it. The only people who disliked me in game is people with huge ego's like yourself who think they are all that and more and yet getting pwned everytime they face me. The people whos pride I've hurt.
Here on the forums I couldn't care less if people liked me or not. I'm here to play a game not to type words in a forums. The only threads I've made are threads with relevant information to help the devs make this server happen. The only reason I'm even writing stuff that isn't related to game is because idiots like yourself jump my throat when I post shit and spread lies that you even know is a lie which one of the most pathetic things a person can do. But on it also lets me know I really hurt you which I kinda enjoy.

Haha you come on beta and have success and think your shit doesn't stink? This is beta. This being your first EQ PVP experience I can see why you attacked the beta with such zeal - spending 10x the amount of time on the server than anyone else getting whatever you need to be successful. Well, guess what. The rest of the crowd has already been there, done that. We don't feel like spending so much time acquiring items that are going to be wiped in a few weeks. I've spent a decent amount of time on the server but still only have 2 items that give me total of +5 wisdom. As much as I would like to have the resist gear to do some proper testing (even if it is just casting on my two characters) I just can't bring myself to doing it knowing that it is going to be gone.
Of course, choosing one of the most dominating pvp classes and bragging bout being 'skilled' is laughable. Be a rogue and kill ppl left and right and I will bow down.

The only reason I played much beta was to re-learn the game so ill be prepared for live. But I've already achieved that now and I'm not really playing much atm beside testing resists to speed up the live release. I'm still up for 1v1 vs anyone or anything else that might be a challenge though. And more then anything I'm beyond bored with Darwoth. You're so freaking boring!! Reading anything you write almost make me want to cut my wrists. Whatever you write, you make it sound like you're a depressed, lonely and miserable guy without any friends or support in life.

i stopped playing because i couldn't be assed to keep playing when resists were still broken and there was enough evidence to work on them, not to mention peak players during my available time to play was around 30-50
i killed a shitload of people in oasis as i was levelling there and a lot of them were lower level than me, a lot of them were even level as me; gotta take what pvp you can find. i mean you know that, you sit around begging in /ooc for people to 1v1 you so that you can burn down all of your clickies on them for some reason

In all seriousness caring about the resists is pretty dumb! At the end of the day we will all have to play with the same system. What i mean to say is regardless of the resist system the players who are better than average are still going to come out on top.
Or whatever classes the system benefits the most. On VZTZ, the #1 ganking class was wizard by far. Just sneak up on someone, ice comet, stun, ice comet, instant death, no talent whatsoever required lol.

Only root was tested, and since it breaks quickly even when it lands, it's judged to be fine. Root is the only CC spell with a variable duration. If he'd tested snare, for instance, he'd find that he'd have been able to keep himself snared permanently for 20 minutes with that resist rate since snare doesn't get constant resist checks to see if it breaks early. Same with stuns and mez.
100 MR should mean any of these spells have such a low chance to land that you generally don't have to worry about them. They might land now and then, but that's what you have pumice for, or that's when you deserve to die. Anything considerably above 100 MR should make you virtually immune to these effects save for the inherent x% chance any spell has of landing. This is not merely how it "should be" in order to ensure quality PvP but also how it was at the time.
Melees don't need to be completely immune to CC in order to PvP, they just need it to be so that they resist them the significant majority of the time. With a 50% resist rate, it's only root that you don't have to worry about. Anyone can snare-kite you until you die or keep you mezzed infinitely. 140 MR is what most classes cap out at unbuffed (warriors can get 25 more by default and melees tend to get 20ish more than casters due to access to more resist gear). Most people will have around 100-120ish unbuffed with good gear because squeezing out every last drop of MR means sacrificing everything else, from FR/CR to AC, hp and mana.
It was plenty possible to PvP in mostly your planar set and then key resist pieces like bloodstained mantle, tranix crown and JC rings/bracelets/neck. You won't have insane resists that way, but you'll have the benefit of wearing actual gear for decent AC or mana pool. With the resist rate of the OP screenshots, you'd have to ditch everything else and scrape up every last point of MR in order to do well - we're looking at a wizard in pretty much the best PvP gear and he has 140 MR (presumably with his shielding buff that adds like 25) and his own root is landing almost half the time.
Two notes, though:
- Are we absolutely sure that spells cast on yourself are accurately reflecting the resists you'd see on a different target? People always said it wasn't the same, that casting on yourself gave odd results. Dunno if that's the case, but I wish people would do their tests with other players just to check.
- I don't remember root always breaking that early when it did land. When you got rooted with high MR, it'd usually last a full tick or so before breaking early. It's pretty consistently 0.1 seconds in that test, and that looks a bit weird to me. Early root breaks should work pretty much like partial resists, shaving off a varying percentage of the damage (duration) but rarely landing for less than 20-30% when it actually did land against a high resist. From my recollection, partial nukes would usually do approximately a quarter, half or three quarters damage and roots would be similar with regard to their duration. 0.1 sec breaks happened, but they'd just as often last 5-10 seconds on the rare occasion that they did land.

It's exactly the same results on someone else with CC spells. Nukes and different though since you hit yourself for full damage.

spells cast on yourself dont reflect spells on a nother person they never did
resist system is currently not how it was , they made it lean toward melee to encourage people to make them and not die to casters in 5 seconds
its a better way of doing it , be happy , and tell the devs
delete it and roll it , fix faction on the fly
and stop crying on this forum , btw lovely found another pic of you

How does it encourage melee if CC spells landing nearly 50% of the time with high MR?

cause on classic they landed EVERYTIME unless you had shit tons of MR
and nukes were FULL DMG on classic , yea thats right full
and if you think your going to resist nukes lol
trust me it favors melee
