I played 3s and 2s as a mage with RMP or RM. This is EQ who gives a shit. If he wants a game built around casual even matches go back to WoW and stop shitting up this server. Typical 3rd worlder comes here and wants to change our way of life :P

Multi Classed Rogue/Mage/Lock/Ret 2400+ in 3v3 last season and two different hunters to 2750+

Too immersed in EQ atm to touch any drakes. My hunter is still only lvl 98 ;p

I don't think I've ever heard Colgate rustled tbh.
I have. It's called throwing away 3 divine rapiers away to make the enemy team win an unwinnable game.

I was laughing hard as hell. May our mmr RIP

Go ahead and add whatever other stupid occurrences you witnessed at the BoTB's.
The use of dragon teeth to make pets, dawnfires, and anti-undead spells.

lol

BOTBs/duels are a better representation of "player skill" than world pvp. Positioning close enough to a zoneline to plug or batphone in cavalry isn't representative of much of anything.

Also did you cast any nukes with your Cleric in the BOTB? Be honest.

We had a no clickies rule on the VZTZ BOTBs. I can't believe they allowed them here. They should run another BOTB in 2015 when some of the players who don't have 80 hours a week to invest in emulated Everquest have caught up to the level cap.

Red Cleric BotB was FUBAR. Combatants received dragon teeth to spawn a skeleton pet, which then opened the door to combatants using Dawnfires and Undead Nukes.

Clickies were generally not allowed in the P99 BotBs unless specifically allowed in the rules that we could locate for the original BotBs back in 2000-2001.

i.e. druids could use drones of doom bracers

P99 staff made additional non-classic changes such as disallowing Blackstone Maul. Monk epic/robe clicks were allowed on the grounds that the original BotB video recap showed monks running around with the casting animation.
