It’s no wonder so many of these posters are playing Vanilla WoW. Bad player alerts detected off thE charts

Oh, you think classic is your ally? You merely adopted classic. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t see the cycle nearest npc or pet window until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding!

We want classic content. Fiddling with the UI's and making the game just as unplayable as it was in 1999 with shitty features (or lack thereof) that were rightly changed as the game moved forward is dumb.

If you guys ever figure out how to make the stamina bar work the server is going to have a meltdown.

Targeting skill was the key to dungeon CC, it would always be mentioned when praising a talented enchanter back in the day. Charming was a novelty due to the much greater risk compared to p99.

Woops. Yea, this is a thing, and accurate. I forgot I coded it in.

With that said, people need to realize that we're not just simply disabling stuff like this because we're fanatically classic (Well.. maybe nilbog would), but because these are features that make the game EASIER than it should be. Targetting was hard to do in classic, and that's part of the difficulty of the game.

Is there an argument to be made for green vs blue? Sure. I'll discuss it internally.

How is it impossible? You can still target the nearest NPC. What has become more difficult is individually targeting a grouped up horde of mobs.

The hard truth people aren’t getting here is CC was made very very easy in EQ and this change brings it down to be inline with other classes.
