fd wasnt meant to clear agro?

Feign death was designed a mechanism to control aggro during fights, and monks weren't meant to be pullers. My point is there are a lot of unintended mechanics in EQ, but the playerbase discovered unique ways to manipulate skills and gameplay, and I present to you, EQ classic.

Twinking was not a part of the game that verant originally intended. So that meant no fungis, or epics, or anything fun. One reason I think EQ classic is so awesome, is that you can meaningfully twink out your character to make you feel godlike your second time around. Imagine how boring EQ would be if every time you wanted to level another character you had to do it with rusty longswords and banded.

Samwisered sure is taking this a bit tooooo personally. Me think's he failed to achieve an epic piece for his mage or TMO is asking 500k for elemental staff mastery mayhaps?

During SoV they add alternate epic drop mobs to make getting your item realistic. No more waiting for a God. Mq for epics still exist in live. The cleric epic has been helped many times. Since kunark. Here on p99 they have released 3 full xpacs on live over 3 years. Who knows when velious will. Launch.

Pixels matter, more so than history itself.

Met a rogue with her (his) epic last night...level 23, scumbag Steve attitude about him.

Wasn't room in the group so he tried to get a port, failed.
Then tried to start another group next to ours.

MQs are stoopid, especially for epics.

Change this and you'll see "selling loot rights to" and the price will be even higher since the parties involved have to coordinate during a raid pop.

The only real "problem" with the server is that Kunark has been out about 6x times longer than it was in true classic. That creates a completely different environment that is unique to P99 and has never existed before.

Personally I'm waiting for Project 1999 Take 2 where the server is rerolled or a new one started with the new code so we can have a more classic experience from the start following proper timelines.

I hope this happens once Velious has been out for a while and we've had our fill. A true timeline through the end of velious would be awesome.

I was going to ask whether MQ's can still be done on live. The fact that MQ's still exist on live makes me think they should not be eliminated here. Also, what is the main reason people want to get rid of MQ's, because low levels shouldn't have epics? Does that mean we should make all Fungi/Tstaff/CoF/<insert other uber item here> non-usable by low levels or no drop as well? Where do we draw the line?

I personally think that threads like these are only addressing symptoms of a non-classic experience, which may or may not lead to unintended consequences. The real causes of any non-classic experiences on this server are A) our pre-existing knowledge and experiences from live and B) the intervals between expansions on this server (neither of which can be fixed.)

yup not intended

devs didn't intend or expect the majority of players to get past level 40
