When did lazy aggro go in, live ?

Maybe it has been too long and my memory is failing but I don't remember it being a thing on live during Velious.

It started in Kunark.

Any proof of that? I'm pretty sure it wasn't there until long after Luclin.

I quit live in Oct 01 and this wasnt a thing.

- i dont care either way. Think its an interesting change. Just observing the "its classic" argument. Like spell timers.

Yes plenty of proof when you go look at the bug threads it was talked about in. These changes don't get made without those threads.

These changes came in either right at the end of Velious or after SOL though mate. Just semantics though about timelines really although if it was after SOL then well , not classic [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

They did not. They started in Kunark.

Absolutely not. When kunark dropped things would still chase you all the way from zone line to zoneline. Still did that when Velious dropped.

-this change was probably made after other MMOs released where lazy aggro was a thing and EQ devs copied it. Was a good change , but did not happen when Kunark , or for that matter , Velious , went live.

They would not if you had the appropriate run speed to outdistance their chase range. You couldn't gain a speed advantage with strafe in classic either. You had to jump.
