Charming Fire giants IS NOT CLASSIC

[Salty]

I wouldn't expect dumbass staff members to know shit like this, since they are obviously retards.


But Fire giant charming is not classic and never was classic.


If you think it was classic than you are a fucking retarded motherfucker who never played EQ before velious.

Enchanters level 49 or higher can charm fire giants with Allure, although the casting time of their charm makes it nearly impossible to charm a fire giant that is beating on them (unless it is slowed) - two enchanters trying to charm a single giant generally will work, as one of them tanks it and the other gets Allure off uninterrupted. Slowing the giant with either their own slow spells or the stronger insects line of shamans will also allow them uninterrupted charms. It's a good idea to have along a shaman regardless, due to the power of their insects line and additional hp buffs on tanks. In a pinch, root-parking giants -can- work. ...

I see what you did there...

Salty, please post more screenshots from an era of time where you didn't play to prove yourself wrong again like you did last time about CT.

I was curious because I didn't think they were charmable either. But I found this from Aug 2000.

Don't ever take Salty's word on what is classic.

His experience in Everquest is limited to VZTZ(lawl) and Progression servers on live.

He doesn't know shit about this game and is quite possibly one of the worst people in the entirety of EQ, and EQemu.

[Lazortag]

Bump! Since Salty is spamming the forums I figured I'd put his idiocy on display even more.

Some random fag posts something on Allakhazam and you take it as quoting Genesis in the Bible where Isaac is the same as Jesus thus presenting Muslim and Catholicism is the same thing.

you dumb bro

[Harrison]

Where's your proof otherwise?

[Lemons]

anyone who thinks giants where charmable is just a full blown retard heh. but whatever though, makes the encounter easyer for us.

Yeah, "full blown retard". I'm sure the detailed post made during the classic era was just fabricated. There are also old everlore posts that confirm they were charmable but currently the server that hosts the wayback machine's everlore archives is down, so only later will I be able to link it, but it's there. Either way the post I linked is evidence enough. It's certainly better than no evidence, which is what you and Salty provided.

[Salty]

No evidence?

Ya bro, we hang around people every single day that have been in plane of fear before there were any character models on any NPC.

Do you think we can't go "Hey bro was soandso charmable?" and they have more weight than any person that has ever played everquest in the whole entire world.

[Salty]

If you can come to me and be all like "hey this random faggot said so on Allakha" I can link you the first 5 kills on Nagafen that no one in the entire everquest servers combined have done with an authentic interview saying "nah bro we couldnt charm FGs."

You fucking dumb bro

[Dullah]

No sense arguing with retards Wolfram.

The whole dynamic of EQ has changed since back then. Everyone was just learning the game, seldom did anyone actually think outside the box and press all their class abilities to the limit. I know when we did content 3 years in to EQ, we used all kinds of strats and tech that we'd never dreamed of trying when EQ first came out. Not because we couldn't but just because it seemed too risky.

Charming high level mobs is terribly problematic. Unless you have a group dedicated to helping the enchanter via heals, debuffs and so forth, you will end up with nothing but dead enchanters and a loose FGs stomping your raid. Just ask Holo.
