I heard Dotguv had Feign Death on hotbar 2. I guess he'll have to contribute to raids now!

Yea. Us vs them mentality. Forming groups (against the rules), buffing each other (against the rules) using voice chat to communicate (lame), and using wort pots and other consumables (lol guild funds).

I appreciate the effort put forth by the staff, however.

Being 100% classic shouldn't be the goal, and it is definitely NOT the state of the current game. We could all find 200 things in the game that aren't "classic", so that point is moot. Every time someone points out something that isn't classic, the response is always "yeah, but here's why that was done..." So...the fact is, it's not classic. Period.

For me, the issue with the patch is simple playability. Yes we can all find ways around things with this recent patch, but my question is why? The last patch was pretty much perfect for all of us. The pet window elimination was bad enough. Then they eliminate hot bars too [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I think that was worse. It's like I have to use a Google search to find my macro buttons now.

Yes, everything that was done you can "get around", but everything feels clunky and delays response time, that's all. Yes, we can put all pet macros on the ONE hotbar we are allowed. But we have to use Shift#2, Shift#3, Shift#4, etc etc to find something that was all displayed nicely on one screen before. It feels like to get a simple thing like finding out your pet's health is an 84 button click fest now. I feel like I'm a senior citizen playing.

The positives I found with the patch are targeted group buffs (you can cast groups buffs on your pet too!), awesome, awesome change, oh, and the monk triple attack of course.

So anyway, yes many of us will continue to play for the love of the game. It just was a real rug puller for many of us. Too bad this was the ultimate goal and last (?) patch.

At this point on the server, good gameplay should be priority #1, I appreciate the effort and hard work Rogean has put into this game, but at the same time disabling a hot bar that has been used by players for years now does nothing but reduce the enjoyment of playing the game. You may cry non classic or whatever, but it still doesn’t make gameplay any better which should be the focus of p99 imo.

your opinion doesn't matter. The point of P99 was to be as classic as possible.

Hmm. Then why do we have Flurry Drakes and rooted dragons in Velious? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

This seems like an unfortunate step backwards. I guess if this is going to stay, people need to relearn all of their hotkeys. Make a lot of use of shift # to go to the page with the hotkey.

2019 -> 2001

Of course its a step backwards. Thats the entire point of the server.

Hope this helps.
