Those web sites arrived after EQ was released so they aren't classic either and they were all 3rd party too just like your unofficial wiki is. There were no treasure hunting guides or step by step leveling guides during classic everybody was learning the ropes on the fly. Even so your wiki is nowhere near as good as Castersrealm was. Castersrealm was original content, your content is either biased personal opinion presented as facts (example: https://wiki.project1999.com/Shamwow...man_Race_Guide) or stolen content (the same as all wiki's are). There's no comment section on your wiki either like there is on Allakhazam. The bit about everybody being free to add their own bit is a lie too (the wiki system has woke wiki admins and bots with automatic revert buttons).

FYI, when you say something all I see is your clown-ish forum avatar so everything you say is a joke to me. Because of that, I'm glad you're not representing important causes because if you did they would be a joke too.

Best Shaman race...

- Pre-60: the fun one
- Post-60: none

Me personally, I'm going for max strength and FSI to avoid being encumbered and stunned for 60 levels before I reroll. I'm not after a darwin award so I won't be raiding at 60 nor spending 100K on a L60 spell just so I can kill a baby dragon. No epics either. Working on epics on P99 is retarded.

Right now though I'm busy playing a blind Human Ranger. I'm about to ding sow, bish.

Regarding Ranger, I'm loving the 1 point kick, 1 point DS and 33 point heals. Being blind as a bat is fun too.

FU Verant Satan.

The real way to win p99 is learning that you can earn bis loot effectively and efficiently by having a character capable of killing mobs that are level or 20 or below for dkp.

Once you figure this out, you win eq.

On second thoughts re: shaman race. Extra HP regen means extra mana which can be useful in sticky situations. Snare is also useful because runners are as annyng as stun and being encumbered..

TL;DR You f*ck yourself whichever race you pick.

The wiki puts everything in one place, is more detailed than those sites, and has a few features (eg. the location Xs on maps) they didn't ... but to say it's "not Classic" is to admit you really don't know what classic was like. Today we might look at a map on a second monitor instead of printing it out and putting into a binder (like we did back in the day) ... but it's the same exact map the EQ Atlas guy drew 20+ years ago.
The wiki is like a stock market report. Not classic. There was no web site in classic that people alt tabbed to to check and dictate item prices.

The "Wikimedia Foundation" is not classic and neither are pride bunnies.
