Attention, Developers: Please roll back this patch for now.
 

Keep itemization changes intact if you think they're important. The PvE balance changes, especially with mob attack speed, flight speed and aggro have made this game all but unplayable. Please un-patch the servers, review the bugs being reported, and adjust your update accordingly.

i liked your thread so much, but came and seen this.

It'd be nice to farm more guises, manastones and rubicite, but that's not why the patch needs to go.

Not saying I agree, but just got mobbed by every green con thing I passed in sol-a, and some mob attacked me (thankfully green) with basically no delay, threw 20-30 hits my way when between my attacks

Bugs are getting posted that explain what's happening. The big picture is this:

* Mob flight is broken (too soon / too fast)
* Green aggro is non-classic, at least on non-undead mobs below level 30.
* Some mobs have insanely high attack speed.

In general, this patch is terrible for the server community. People who could viably solo while waiting for friends to log in and form up groups now have little to do. Killing any mob while solo with melee is laughably difficult. This sort of thing was tricky but manageable in classic EQ, but here it takes an act of God.

They are fixing it quit shitting ur pants

If you know something I don't, link it in. Otherwise, I'm running it up a flagpole to make sure it's fixed.

lol

If only!
