Like I said, I recall for a period a druid could not charm them. I also found a comment that Glamour would not work from druids to debuff them, raptor issue conceded, but the entire point of all this is gladly being missed.
I bring up something like making 255 the resist cap, actually post evidence and something like this gets hotfixed in without any posting on the boards. So, I have make a bug post but other people don't have to find 100 examples of undeniable proof against all the bluebie ez-mode cravers? I have to defend invis pulling from 10 other people doing everything in their power to keep an exploit in the game but Nizzar who can just ask the dev in his guild?
Well, again, maybe if Nizzar or Diplo ask him to do it, he will do it...or tell you what, just show me a raid strat for killing Venril during Kunark that says either rune the tank or get 400ish magic resist. Doesn't exist.
Here's some easy logic for 255 max resist btw.
If (if statement is a complex coding concept) resist is over 255 when making checks ? Resist = 255 for making the check. Done, he could patch it in but he won't because it makes the content classic and it can't be gimped down.
Now consider this mage pet change we had to get pulled. Thank god we finally have someone stepping in and drawing a line but consider things a little further regarding what changes are made, what exists here and why.
What was Nilbog's policy regarding egg shaped pumices from vendors again? It was "stupid" to have them in? Raptors uncharmable seems to be in line with this, difference is, Azrael isn't benefitting from non-classic pumices to kill raid content.
One way of going about it?
Put in egg shaped and uncharmable raptors of course. Put in item recharging too sure. But as Nilbog said, no, because its stupid to have them. I want full classic, but not "pick and choose" classic.
Where's the consistency? Fair process for filing a bug report? Why is their favoritism shown towards getting issues patched in by a dev who is guilded against competition here? Especially stealth removing xp, changing Chardok faction and now this with the raptors after Azrael killed it? There's your problem, priority is decided by players and a great sense of urgency is given to changes that benefit the other team. He should have to deal with the same amount of bs I have to when addressing classic changes, have fun with the enormous bluebie druid community btw.
Another thing. He is supposed to be a faction dev, all of a sudden Nihilum wants things, and he's changing whatever he wants.
We had corruption issues here before, and rather than it being investigated and handled quietly, we finally got fet and quit, then posted it where it couldn't be deleted on FoH to get "it" (the problem) removed from the staff/foh blocked here. To try and obfuscate what's going on or address it otherwise is comical yet dismaying, just please put an end to it.
I'm sure this isn't your favorite thing to read because its negative or you make take it personally, but welcome to an issue threatening box integrity. I'd love to go back in time and ensure HPT (who noticed it) and I didn't tell Azrael that Faydedar was up, it would be EXCELLENT proof that the raptors would still be unchanged.
