Nothing. That is why the staff of Project 1999 removed it. That is why it needs to remain the way it is. The goal isn't to make it fair or balanced. Everquest cannot ever be fair or balanced. However, you can remove things that will make the population plummet just like it did during the Classic era on the red server.

I repeat: Do not change the topic of this thread. Recharging on red was taken out because it destroys the PvP aspect and diminishes the spirit of of a PvP server.

I agree. Instant killing clickies are dumb and shouldn't be permitted. Which is why Conflagration wands and Traks Teeth can be tagged NPC only target.... Or the Tradeable ones can be set to 100k buybacks

While he more mundane things like... Rings of Shadows, Midnight Mallets or WC Caps can be allowed to recharge.

They have already done a lot of balancing by adding cast times and class restrictions to many of those items as well...
