Excellent point on vision and light. I remember that BB tunnel with my erudite and seeing so little distance with a torch. Made ultravision and infravision spells useful. Seems everyone has great sight now.

PS: Honestly have no clue how much running the servers cost so don't really know how much to donate.

Nice work there!

Well it would help if ultra vision actually WORKED! Tested a bunch of times definatly broken...

im jonseing hard for norrath wheres my fix

[Malone88]

Beta buff pack turned my rogue into blind barbarian (why? why? why?),
but Shaman and chanter ultravision spell made vision
normal for me.

No problems seeing until the buff wore off...Would have been
nice if a DE mask was included in the gear.

i have 12 shells to spawn ixiblat and 23 shimmering pearls corpsed.



long live ixiblat and ragefire farming

I believe the client we all use currently is the reason light levels are normalized. Meaning there was nothing the devs could do to make this more true to classic. Does this mean in Velious this could be more true to classic? That would be fantasic news!! I remember I played DE's for months and in EQ at launch. One day my buddy asks me for help with this Human Druid, so I log in and he is sitting in a dark zone. I couldn't see a single thing on the screen. Logged him out and rebooted, logged back in and still... totally dark.... I had to call him and ask WTF. After about 5 - 10 minutes of debating what is wrong, he said, you did cast Infravision on him right? Ahh no why would I have to do that.

Being able to make light spells and races that see in dark relivant would be fantastic and classic!!!

I'd say most characters have travelled through these zones before several times both on live and on P99.

You should use Egress to travel. It saves time. Not much fun about running through OT for the 100th time for me though... Maybe you're different.

Levant at night? I am not so sure about that one. But i guess its possible. Maybe i only ever happened to cast levant at night and shrug

The ranger +hit is off for bows. If it is still the default value, then it is low. The default value is set and determined for preparing for future AA and all the + hit effects. It needs to be upped a bit. Also the AC check for full hit on it is bad. Its very rare you get higher % of dmg on bow, so most of the time your hitting for about 50% or less of your max damage and it will never be viable until updated.
