Caster mobs on p1999 cast level appropriate spells.. on live they would cast lower level spells.

Is that really true, Tuffpuppy? I remember having trouble with caster mobs on live, too. Like, a LOT of trouble.

My monk could actually handle caster mobs - even healers - on live.

Here? Much harder. They just seem to be a lot more relentless in terms of healing. They were stupid on live - they'd only start casting heals at very low health (like 5% or so off running hp). Here, they start at like 35-30%. And on live, they wouldn't heal over and over and over - maybe once or twice. Then they'd give up and just fight you or keep dotting/nuking.

Live Shaman mobs didn't blind either - ever. I know that, I just haven't taken the time to prove it.

Sorry that's wrong. Definitely remember my entire screen going pitch black against Orc Shaman and being scared as shit back then.

I remember at the Orc camps in Gfay being blinded as a noob and freaking out thinking my game was broken. Circa 99

I just don't remember froggy or kobold shaman ever casting it even though I soloed Lguk/SolB for most of my 50s. Maybe some shaman mobs did; but the 30+ ones I fought didn't.
