Default Stasis rant of the day

Resist code is big #2 next to EXP rate for why the server failed and currently sucks. In mass pvp it means a bunch of no geared casters can drop max geared characters very easily with very little coordination, since all nukes land for full. It means when there's a mage around people just run instead of fighting because lure root pet is most likely death. Necros lifetaps and dots are underpowered as fuck because nukes are blown out of proportion and suck because of this when they were very dominant on live.

We struggled through low levels - thinking Null scaled shit way back to account for knowledge of the game/make certain classes viable - I even think he said something completely dumb like "Bards shouldn't be unkillable". hinting that this shit was by design and infact he's a fucking retard.

But ultimately most people quit due to this - on Live, you would get 70+ MR with basic items like BS mantle, jewlery bracers, black iron crown etc etc and be viable and ready to go for pvp. Here I am max gear and I still worry about venturing far from zone lines (just like every other melee) and it creates this boring stagnant zone line defending gay ass pvp.

Resists touchy for me could go on for awhile but I'll just cut this rant here and not proof read.

I don't thing root is that big of a deal, just the fire/cold nukes could use a tweak. Also Tstaff18secondslol. I said before the server opened that I believe resists should scale for the era, so each expansion the threshold gets higher, to account for the availability of better gear. They didn't want to do that. Maybe null coded with velious-level resists in mind.

root only needs a little tweak, earth pets need a major tweak, fire/cold/tstaff need a ultra combo tweak.

Damn, Abraham was a wise dude. We also happen to feel the same way about things regarding the server. What a coincidence.

MR isn't an issue, unless it's a fresh server where MR gear was hard to get - and only the real wealthy jews like HB had jacinth/diamond rings.

But Stasis, that would mean we weren't actually a classic server. Don't be silly, shits obviously classic and by design.
