Guilds in Velious/gear taking fears 8)

Look @ 1:50 in 2nd vid


Fun fact that root/regen potions should make fear not work on you
Interesting videos. I think it actually helps show that fear resists are off.

In the first video, there aren't actually a ton feared, you can quite clearly see pretty much all the warriors and clerics resist it everytime - they assumidly have bards. The people running probably are bard-free. The person taking the video did not have a bard.

The second video has more fears, but there are still clearly 2-3 groups that don't get feared really. Most guilds in velious ran with 2-3 bards, so it also seems logical that these are bard groups, and that bard groups don't really have fear land that often. Velious, in terms of AE's, is often mentioned at how necessary bards were - this is why.

I think this actually helps prove that these fear resists are not classic. We have lvl 60's with 400+MR who are pretty much all fleeing with only a stray resist. That is quite clearly not what was happening on either of those Kland runs.

Ie, I think your videos make a good argument about how this fear landing so much is not classic.

Good points, and this doesn't even take into account that players back then were complete newbs. I played on a pvp server where resist gear was much more important and dragon fears were less of an issue. The average player on a blue server ran around in +str/hp/wis/int gear 24/7, hence the fears. I can tell you they didn't have bags of jac/diamond rings, bd earrings, wolfs bracers and tranni/frog crowns etc like our guild kept on us mandatory.

By Velious most blue servers knew to keep and use resist gear. It was mandatory in my guild at least. Lets be honest ;P

Full set of resist gear and "always on" stable internet were our #1 requirements. The first 2 videos are both known hardcore raid guilds. They had resist gear on.
