Classic Feel vs Classic Mechanics

lol.

AoW is literally release 40-man Patchwerk. They are the same exact encounter with a different skin. Ssra is slightly harder, but nowhere near anything like Firefighter, much less Sunwell.

Dying is a problem in EQ from approximately level 8 to level 51. 99% of clerics on this server have an epic, and a clicky rez is usually no more than a friendly tell away, even sub-50, because many people have clerics parked in their zone in case their group dies.


Back on topic: I'm all about classic feel, and not classic mechanics. If I had the option, I'd have all mechanics set to end-of-velious levels from launch. EXP penalties were a mistake, per the devs. We don't worship mistakes - we fix them. Same for all the other crap they fixed. Yeah we get no rubicite or guises, but so what - have some GM events and hand 'em out in limited quantities.

Really? You've been here for 4 years and you say that? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Worship ( http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=worship ) is exactly what's happening amongst the noisiest part of the community here. The staff appears to have a different agenda, and a lot of us players are just here for the fun of it, but the :classic: nerds make it plain every day that they are 100% in worship mode. And they especially advocate for and worship the stupidest of the choices our Verantard overlords made back in the day.
