I support Starklen's message.

Why not just do like a first in class to finish all Class quests? Or something to that extent. You know kinda like the first full armor set etc...

That way the list is way shorter, but it's still noting a significant milestone should it ever happen.

[Starklen]

^ that sounds good too.

I was never in Sky on live before Kunark, but Sky is way easier than I expected. The pre-nerf Spiroc Lord took us less than 48 hours to beat, maybe a dozen attempts. You want the strategy? Log in a shitload of clerics and magicians with overpowered pets.

I'm sure no one thought of such advanced strategies ten years ago.

The bosses aren't mitigating enough damage in either melee or magic. If everyone didn't already know this, magician pets are not accurate to classic. They're massively overpowered. These fights should be much, much harder.

I wiped more fighting them at 60.

This was the experience of pretty much everyone but a certain few people who either didn't raid sky on live or are so wrapped up in defending image that they will not admit the truth.

I strongly disagree with some of what you've said. Class flexibility and the fact that people can log on different characters was not something you could do en masse 10 years ago because it costed money and was a violation of the terms of service. Without getting into specifics, the point about boss mitigation of spells and melee from players isn't true either. I'm hoping another guild gets far enough to corroborate that statement but time will tell.

(mitigation with respect to players, I have no idea on pets since I never played a pet caster on live)

That's what I have been saying all along. I'm glad somebody has the guts to admit it.

I'd probably say Helnam or Fugly then, for the first full set of Rune Etched.

I don't remember Helnam or Fugly ever having full RE.. Dudes were hella stingy back in the day..
get more people to verify, or 1st hand accounts after so long pretty much.. or screenshots..

I just know that no one in trans was first. We were probably faster to complete most of the set than IB, but we got shit drops for jeremy's sleeves and stanleys legs.
