Regarding the new spell file and such.

[Autotune]

someone should monkey around and re-fix it. Has to be some way to bypass it.


other than that, i guess you can just have 50 saved partial spell sets and 10 full spell sets and just on the fly mix and go if you had to.

So it would be safe to assume the contextual menu for spells is gone for good?

[Messianic]

Honestly, I have no clue what you guys are referring to and I assume you were able to mem/unmem entire spell sets with macros or some other functionality...

But I've always arranged my spellbook in a way where I could drop and mem whatever I needed asap. Of course, the highest caster i've ever played is a wizard, so situational memming is really just stuns, AEs, gates, evacs, and lower level DD.

But my spellbooks are usually very well organized anyhow, so...

[Estu]

Yeah, maybe I'm some sort of troglodyte but I never used spell sets or contextual menus; I just organized my spellbook whenever I got new spells. I know where everything is and can mem what I need to very quickly (and as a shaman, I'm changing spells a lot). Maybe not as quickly as someone with a macro, but just as quickly as someone using a context menu. I wasn't even aware of context menus or spell sets until I read about them on this forum. I see where you guys are coming from, though, and why it's maybe not the most necessary of changes to make.

Ya it wasnt game breaking but as a bard... it made the game more enjoyable. Now it just means i need like 50 spell sets in stead of a couple. For me, it was one of those things that should have always been there as it did not take away from game play and only removed a "Pain in the ass" factor.

I am just wondering if it was meant to be removed or was a result of something unforseen. Managing your spell book was one of those tedious tasks which did not add anything to the game. Maps can be game breaking, this was just an annoyance.

it was meant to be taken away.

also, idk how anyone in their right mind could play a bard without this, and melody... crazy ass bastards.

Nevermind, I just found the spells files. The main information on how to update your spells file are on the maing page project1999.org. It's the eqchanges file in the setup guide that needed updated on mine, and that's because I play sometimes on other servers.

Ugh, I'll have to go and buy a mouse now. It's not doable with a touchpad as an enchanter anymore, having to swap out 2-3 spells mid-combat every fight when charm-killing. I was so proud of being a touchpad player, too [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If we complain loud enough, it might change.

Lets go people!

The smart ones read that this was coming a month in advance and made spell sets/organized their book accordingly. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Thankfully we only have like 5 pages of songs at the moment too, so that's nice!
