Stupid things you believed about EQ way back then

THAT DEXTERITY EFFECTED HOW OFTEN YOUR HITS LANDED!!! HOLY CRAP I DUMPED ALL MY BEGINNING STATS IN TO DEX AS A HALF-ELF WARRIOR.

In retrospect I now know why I sucked so much. I didn't find out dex had no bearing on chance to land a hit until PoP....

Other stupid myths:
-You could pick up a thrown item. I tried it on a dragoon dirk around level 8. I never got it back [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
-That you wanted a big number on your weapons, namely delay. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
-You could get re-aggro with a mob at a great distance despite zoning out and zoning back in.
-That the world was really this dark (until I adjusted gamma which was set automatically at max low when I began)
-That skeletons in EC dropped Lamentations (from Kunark), but was in reality a rusty mace.
-The warriors were a good class to play back in classic.
