Two boxing in those days, literally meant having two computers (boxes). Regardless of technology at those times, thousands still did it (who didn't have two computers?). It is more rampant on live because of the increase in technology over the course of time, I can admit to that - but still != classic (cause it was possible). [I like how one cannot two-box on this server]



High level necro pets are an advanced model that I can't seem to change to the old model (red with yellow eyes). != classic




I believe that it is a fix to the Wizard class that was long overdue. Besides spell criticals not being classic, can you give me another reason? In the end, I can understand if that's the only reason (the banner says, Project 1999, Classic Everqust). But lame ;p

I don't think you fully understand how the development here works. They started with a product that is EXTREMELY not classic, and they work over time to make it classic. For example, they didn't disable MQing, MQing was already disabled and then they worked to add MQing in for stuff (can't do it for everything since each quest needs to be done individually, so they just do popular MQs) All that coding and work takes time, there is no way for them to just magically and instantly make it 100% classic. Look at things as a work in progress.

Incorrect. Two boxing was not prohibited because it required you paying for 2+ subscriptions.
Playing here is free. Anyone could quadruple box because there's no mandatory monthly fee. I think Sony could have cared less how many 'boxes' players employed, so long as they handed over that $$$ each month

That, and back then you literally had to have Two boxes in order to two box, hence the name. Nowadays you can run several on a single box.

anybody remember Sam Deathwalker?

Also, why are AoE rains only ticking twice?

that would be because they used to be broken, and now they're fixed... if the proc on my adamantite bo stick was anything to go by

leveling in WW on giants. when i first arrived, the ABS would proc and land 3 times regardless how many giants it hit. so if i was fighting 2 giants it would hit 2x75 3 times (for a total of 6 hits) that's exactly how rain spells were broken, they're supposed to have a max of 4 hits over a max of 3 waves

by the time i'd left WW giant fort, it would hit 1 giant 3 times, or 2 giants twice. (never tried it on 3 giants). this is working as it should be

broken rain spells hit up to 4 targets 3 times each

working rain spells should do the following

hit 1 target 3 times
hit 2 targets 2 times
hit 3 targets once + spell targeted mob gets hit a second time
hit 4 targets once
