The 2.0 code had much higher root resist rate aerist, but wehrmact seems to have some sort of reading comprehension failure.
I play a melee, all the tests i've done etc were up for discussion by people of sound mind, constantly ranting about wanting root to have 100% resist with 125MR is pretty useless, wehrmact seems to think he is the voice for the entire community yet i sit in aim talking to 20-30 of the people who want this server to happen discussing these things, testing these things and try to find a point of discussion, it's pretty difficult to discuss anything with somebody who underlines in every single post that he wants root to resist 100% or the server is bad...
As i've posted many times, but again wehrmact ignores most of the post if i don't reply with "Good idea, 100% resist to root" this is a test thread, about discussing and changing the resist code so it isn't the same as vz/tz right now.
The current vz/tz resist code seems to point most resists at the exact same file, the same resist for an MR nuke is the same for a snare / root. As per 2.0, null had things working pretty nicely, and already 4 people? posted about the changes null making being good ones, but in comes white knight wehrmact,
"DID NULL HAVE 100% RESIST TO ROOT? NO? SCUMBAG"
The fact is, root should have a chance to hit, on a personal level,
in my opinion, not wehrmacts i think that people should eat a root 20% of the time with 125MR, the number is incredibly easy to reach in classic, and unless you want each spell recoding through each expansion then it starts to get retarded.
Again, Wehrmact, this isn't even under our control, we don't know the actual plans of what the team here are planning even if they are planning an EQ pvp server, if they want it live like, then indeed root will resist to your specifications, the fact is i believe (this was polled) that people want a classic server, that is as balanced as possible.
I don't want this server like the recent vz/tz, it was terrible, that's why i'm putting in effort to show how the resists were there and get the communitys opinion on how it should actually be, all you're doing is posting
your sole opinion on what you want.
The coding for a proposed new server might include a merger of some of the old VZ/TZ resist code from 2.0, which we must assume wehrmact is again an expert on, Null is ready to work on the resists and AC etc but again we still don't know what's happening.

think you got it backwards pal. I said 5 billion times, everything should be like normal EQ live unless you can actually give a legitimate reason for why something should be changed and bombfist has not done so.
When you say something should be changed but give no reason why, it's the equivalent of saying: "It would be pretty cool if all the characters were walking around naked with 4 penises, we can get null to code it"

You actually need reasons why some of the retarded terribad things that happened on live need changing, you're a moron, they were changed ON LIVE, because they were STUPID. I'm not going to go through every single change with you and why they were changed, because if you're too dumb to wonder why bards and enchanters couldn't make pets poof any more then there is 0 hope.
Again, to enter some thick skulls if it's atall possible;
ALL OF MY DATA IS FOR CROSS REFERENCE, AND INFORMATION ON THE LAST EMU PVP SERVER.
we do not know what the devs are going to do with this server, all information gathered is, get this, for informational purposes, posted here with backing of the opinion of others, if there are people in the community who feel like they need an explanation for me not agreeing with root landing 100% of the time with 4 items from classic, or level 4 enchanters being able to make pets poof, please feel free to PM me and i'll feel free to not care.
Slam dunk, i'm afk until i wait to speak to a dev in irc, I'm currently speaking with null and waiting for some direction on any possible server, my interest is in a balanced server, not a brain dead classic EQ pvp server, ignoring all changes actually made in future live eq patches because everything was broken, seems counter productive to me, just as actually replying to wehrmact is.
