Megalodon

[Coridan]

So in Beta there was a level 51 shark called Megalodon. He got removed because the pathing for fish sucked. On live they eventually fixed fish pathing, here they haven't (razorgills in Blackburrow and the sharks in QCat are pretty bad). I remember I got my server GM (who I am still friends with today) to actually spawn him and he went on a terror spree in Lake Rathetear before it was decided that was a bad idea.

It seems they eventually added him in the Veil of Alaris expansion (not sure which one that was, I left around LDoN). It would be cool, if we can get fish pathing fixed (which would be cool in its own right) to see Megalodon come back.

Ancient Megalodon http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/npc.html?id=16195

was part of shaman epic 1.5, is that the mob you are talking about?

That is the (a) version they added in later yeah. Original was just "a megalodon", was level 51, had normal shark model and probably just shark meat for loot (when they removed him from the game Vox did not even have loot yet)

Clairvoyance is more or less, nothing.

But basically on a spell cast you have a small chance to recover your total Clairvoyance amount back in mana. IE you have 1,000 Clairvoyance, every like 50th spell cast you will get 1,000 mana back.

The proc chance on it is so low, that it is irrelevant.

Spell DMG / Heal Amount are where its at though.

It is funny. EQ had* done one of the best jobs handling gear inflation up until about SoF. Then they just failboated. It made all prior raids basically useless and if you weren't raiding the most recent expansion you were better off grouping since group gear was better.

But for the first 12-13 expansions they managed it pretty well.
