- person hosting server stopped

- bad balance issues like casters tanking the same as warriors

- boxing was allowed so every caster not only tanked like a warrior but also had full cleric buffs so practically no HP disadvantage either

- resists altered to make nukes land more often so a mage can tank like a warrior, have practically the same hp as one from cleric bot, do 10x the dps nuking, and have a pet at the same time

- resist system that made the server known as "caster's paradise" pre-kunark

- stats like strength did nothing

- FFA tends to die fast

- melee hit boxes or sync issues screwed up so you couldn't even hit someone running away from you which was easily doable on EQ live

- probably dozens more I can't think of

I wouldn't be surprised. I tanked Innoruuk from 80% to 0% on ranger while self healing with an occasional heal from Alloria.

So you tanked inny from 80-0% with your 135hp heal, with an occasional heal from alloria? Was this the legit way or when inny fell through the floor AKA exploit kill?

Based on those screenshots Salty posted, FB had 100 air pets attacking through the wall. Super legit bros.

Please. I'm the last person to parrot any PvE done in EQ as an accomplishment, especially given the fact that a group of trained monkeys could kill anything in Classic/Kunark/Velious/etc

But you saying that you tanked Inny (while self-healing, no less) with 1 other person healing is disingenuous, pal.

ya bro and i tanked all the VP dragons on Walk with self heals and small patchs from my boxed shaman <3

I used my 275 bindwound skill to solo kobolds on my max raid geared monk at level 60. I was able to continuously solo kobolds with no healer, I would just bind wound to 70% and then slay another kobold.

After I mastered that, I soloed VS using mend/regeneration potions with my shaman casting torpor.

Knuckle has EQ on EZ mode.

Here he is chillin with a drink while shootin hoops.
