But what bothers me is the selectivity of it. Anyone who played on live knows charming is unclassic here: it was far more risky on live, and that's the reason why guilds couldn't cheeze Tunare with a bunch of Enchanters on live, it's the reason why Enchanters stuck to crowd control and not charming in groups on live, it's the reason Druids quaded and root/rotted instead of charming on live, etc.

We have giant obvious unclassic things here, which anyone who played on live should instantly recognize as "it wasn't like that" ... but the staff ignores those because there's obvious proof of something tiny like Mage pet hits, and there's no evidence of charm resists on live so they just throw up their hands and give up on "classic" when it comes to stuff like that.
Please provide actual evidence that enchanters are scaled incorrectly and it will get changed.

Until then just because you hung out with shitty players who didn't know how to play everquest doesn't mean we should nerf it for your "feels".

oh man pls don't open the can of enchanter worms. those threads go round and around.

alot like most of the threads here that rehash old topics and years go buy debating the same shit over and over and over, the only difference is the thread titles change.

You are not hi-jacking the mage RnF thread.

That's my entire point: none exists! So we just give up on making it classic, which is tragic.

It's simple. If you make a Street Fighter 2 Emulator, and people are playing Ryu ... but you're not hearing "Shoryuken" almost constantly, you don't need any further evidence that your emulator isn't emulating Street Fighter 2 properly.

In Street Fighter 2, Ryu's dragon punch was one of his key moves. It literally doesn't matter whether you know the exact numeric amount of damage his hit dealt: if you played the game you know Ryu (and Ken) players wanted to dragon punch ... a lot.

Therefore, you also know that if players of your emulator don't want to dragon punch, something about that emulator isn't accurate. If your dragon punch was the same as the original dragon punch, it would be getting used just like the real one was.
