Why are there no longer Manastone and other item drops?
 

One of the reasons I came here is to get some of the old school gear Sony nerfeed out of the game. Why is the Manastone, and other high end items no longer in the game? I thought this was the reason for this server, in order to let players camp that?

They were in the game per the time line

Yeah, by the timeline, we're circa just before Velious hit. Manastones were long gone by then.

Curious, if everything is on the appropriate timeline, how long will we get access to PoM quests/drops before they revamp/disable them. (once Velious is released)

Three months?

Manastone, guise, mistwalker, boxes of abukar among other legacy items stopped dropping long ago in accordance with the timeline. Currently both servers are at the end of Kunark awaiting release of Velious. There is hope, but no confirmation, that eventually after Velious has been released for a while that a new server will be opened that will include these drops per the classic timeline.

If you want the chance to have these as lootable items, you're gonna be waiting a year or more at the very least.

Scroll down to the Aeolwind timeline to see a list of the various nerfs and item removals in the timeline.

Ton Po's, Bladestorm, That one maul from emp, pre nerf fungus staff, that dagger from Mayong, lockets, totem of wisened spirits, uhhh...

There's probably a list somewhere.

But the important thing is, internode did not receive an oakwynd. This server needs at least one ranger who can do some bow damage--though maybe in hindsight he wasn't the right one :3

Am I the only one who sees the timeline broken? So... that argument shouldn't be valid.

This kind of attitude is upsetting.

Nilbog is trying to do something that is very challenging with this server.

You think he should give up because the execution wasn't 100% perfect.

Is this how you live your day-to-day life?
