P99 a Classic Server?

[sabersyii]

Shouldn't all casters be looking at their books while medding? When was this removed?

well forget that here is another question.

Why do half the mobs in the Everfrost starting area just stand still and not move? This isn't classic and yet I have been on other private servers that have this working. I would think this would be far more important to fix vs what someone sees on their own screen.

Submit a bug report for it then

Opening to October 1999 - All casters 1-50 had to open spellbook and press the meditate button.

October 1999 - Players level 35 and higher no longer need to open spellbook and press the meditate button.

August 30, 2000 - No longer have to manually press the "Meditate" button in your spell book to meditate.

March 29, 2002 - Spell casters no longer need to see their spell book when meditating. Once a character has the meditation skill, it will function when the character is sitting down.

That's really whats wrong with this server, a lack of adherence to the classic meding timeline.

Certainly ruined my immersion being able to see what was happening while medding.

My guess would be it's a mistake and whatever those drops are will be nerfed\reverted as necessary.

Need to ask the unpaid, volunteer devs and bug reporters if they wanted to focus on hammering out different versions of hundreds of items across several patches or devote time to bigger issues with the impending release of Velious.

Finding the original stats on some of the items and placing them in the appropriate spot of the time line will take another 100+ hours of research and then data entry and flagging within the database.

There is also the pre-upgrade Velious quest armor, which is nearly undocumented as far as stats go since they only lasted for a few weeks.

I have a spreadsheet that is about 25-30% done of ToV, Kael, and ST items.

Would you like to help?

Oh, so it's too hard to research the proper loot drops, so we'll just give the raiders what they want on day one.

The wizards who want ports and translocates though, they have to wait a month or farm wurms in GD because that was nice and easy for Ele & crew to figure out.

What raid guild are you in?
