Because of coding issues/dev laziness etc., SK's on Fippy have harm touch doing way more damage than it did in classic (since later on in the timeline it scaled up in damage a lot faster I think). Because of this the entire raid scene consists of people boxing 15 or so SK's with 2K+ HT's to take down bosses within seconds. There's a hilarious (but sad) youtube video that shows Venril Sathir being killed less than a second after he pops. Basically the hardest encounters in the game are trivialized and the devs show no intention of fixing it from what I hear. I know raiding is only one aspect of eq, but it's still quite damning that they would allow this to go on for so long, so I would stay away from Fippy if I were you. It's garbage.
