And you're currently playing a wizard and have no intention whatsoever of playing a pure melee right? So you're obviously biased as fuck.

I've always played a Monk in EQ and I might roll one at live. Not sure yet. But it has nothing to do with my opinion about what system to use. No matter what I'm gonna make a Monk as my 1st or 2nd character and that's probably gonna be the one I play the most later on. It will also be hanging out in dungeons and I'll be happy if any casters wanna visit me there.

Wait for the nerf melee cries when people get even basic magic resist gear, let alone mithril arms and legs and shit. Remember, they won't have to risk losing it at all.

Casters have so many ways to get out of pvp if the odds arent right. Melee do not have this luxury... /cry more pls permaroot ftmotherfckin lose

That's how it was at early levels, sorry gang.

If you're melee roll with a crew. You can play melee and pvp just don't expect to work out too well solo. If it does it's sure as hell not classic.

BS, melee solo fine in legit EQ

I still cannot figure out why the fuck a single caster is complaining about anything. No, xp penalties, roots/snare/pets/gate/etc. fuck off. This server went away from classic a while ago, maybe let's have more than int casters and druids running around. That would be kewldewd.

launch is going to be all mages, necros, and druids bro...

Only read first page of thread, don't have time to read the rest atm.

But on the first page, no one points out that there are no timestamps/actual logs to coincide with the stun/root/snare times Lovely gives, how can this be considered good testing, especially when this is SO easy to log.
