Real reason I didn't enjoy the server
 
Releasing a bunch of people new/experimenting with pvp into a heavily griefing environment with a shitty resist code. Landing roots/snares on anyone without end game gear makes anyone trying this shit out beyond frustrating/boring.

At least in classic with 80+ MR which is easy attainable through buffs/items, you could at least have fun fighting/escape gank squads fairly easily with avoiding the game breaking spells. Casters can still gate on sight, but when you do decide to pvp, it's just root/zerg/snare/boring.

Hell even with a tranix crown and stacking all MR gear, and with resist magic - my death at the pvp event was Tror first cast rooting me with 151 MR, it broke at 22% but getting away from Gong/Fried sow'd was just not possible. How did Null expect new players to survive/enjoy this lame shit haha.

On live all I did was solo pvp, and it was fun as hell. I don't even have the motivation to log on and pvp here, it's literally not worth anyones time to bother, and the fact that this hasn't been changed just confirms this box has no chance.

I'm sure there's a list of tons of shit that should be changed, but bottom line the pvp is just not fun, and certainly not classic.

Yeah roots are OP as shit, also channeling gate is far too easy.

I'm sure we all have seen some retarded gates being pulled off while the caster is being beaten to shit.

Classic EQ is already a casters paradise but this resist set is even more harsh on anyone without gate/root.

I get rooted pretty frequently even with 200 MR lol.

A lot of respect for the amount of free time those on P99 give to bring us the server we all (or some of us at least) enjoy.

Perfectly summed up. Should increase melee dmg if it's gonna be like this
