When are you going to get it through your head that item loot will not be happening on this server? Stop trying to use it as a justification for ersatz classic resists.

Well, Nilbog says he wants it here

I was told that there would never be blue sparkle emitters on 39+ caster buffing... I was told bolts would never work/change... I was told invis pulling could never be fixed... I was told the devs have no control over the software they are working with here... I've been told a lot of things over my nearly 4 years posting in the bugs section on this account. Guess how much I listen to naysayers?
I have absolutely 0 control over what goes in. I can only share my experiences playing with the devs. I think from that they are able to put in what they feel is the "closest to classic" thing they can implement... and whatever is patched in I feel like hits the nail on the head pretty hard.
Where the many others in the community and I differ is understanding how this process is going to work. After a change goes in, we need to look around for odds and ends that need to be addressed after a huge mechanical change goes in and constructively report that information, and hopefully they can take care of that too. What I see happening is that usually something that wasn't even working before is implemented and there's some strange behaviors/unintended things that happen as a result. This is just going to happen and is a given for any major change. Instead of using these outliers as an excuse to tear everything down, I'd suggest reporting your findings as specifically as possible. What's even better is Haynar has been all over the bugs section knocking out crazy shit that's been untouched for years. And to be quite honest? He's been super interactive and responsive, I suspect because he takes a lot of pride in his efforts. To that end, if you scum up the Holy of Holies (bugs section).. he is probably going to put you on ignore or worse you may discourage him from wanting to help... which puts us back to... guess where.
There's going to be things to resolve after these changes go in, and I'll do my best to test every single spell on the beta cuz I'm a big classic junkies/sucker. Much moreso than that, there is going to be quite a large play style adjustment for people who aren't familiar with how things SHOULD work... I might be a huge classic junkie, sucker and coach to anyone thinking about quitting as a result.. if yer a good pal 2 me

PS: I guess if your hope was that they couldn't change/fix things to make them classic here and you liked the broken mechanics.... that hope is beginning to wane.. and you better start hoping for classic EQ... cuz it looks like its comin'.
