I'm all for stopping recharging, but it is really unclassic to destroy clickies
Back on classic I had a root net for emergencies. Now the root net is completely useless. There already was a cast-time root item that dropped in Crystal Caverns.
I get ending recharging. It feels more like an exploit than an intended mechanic. But instant use clickies were intended to be as such. So make the Midnight Mallet not inventory usable, but don't make it have a cast time. Make the root nets cost 1000pp to recharge, but leave them instant.

I feel like there was already a dozen threads about this.
guilds/players abused clickies, staff took notice(lol), nerfed clickies to give the server a more 'classic feel'. BTW does AG still have a mallet mule parked in innothule corpsing mallets?

Staff took notice? We'd been using clickies for 10 years here. It was 100% condoned and expected strategy. No guild on the server was avoiding clickies for some moral high ground.
And I am fine with nerfing recharging, I doubt that was an intended mechanic. But how is using clickies abusing them? Make them rechargable and nerf the spawn rate.

just to be clear i'm not trying to justify this change to clickies, I think it's BS.
So from what I understand staff decided that only a certain amount of people used clickies back in the day on live classic. On p99 way more people use clickies in this way so they changed it to give a more classic feel in their opinion. paraphrasing not quoting. This is the same reason they refuse to recreate classic exploits. Only a small number of people knew about them back in the day. They would be used by way more people on p99. Long story short they're re-creating the classic feel not the classic game. And hense the term Selectively Classic was coined.

Have they gone on record about why they made the recharge change?

P99 selectively classic.
They should have just gotten rid of recharges and made soul fire equip only. But they completely changed how the items work and it's not classic | ||

With every change like this we stray further and further from the supposed classic goal of the project. Nothing about this is classic. Recharging is classic, clickies are classic. They might not have been ubiquitous but that's completely irrelevant. This is the staff deciding retroactively to make a 100% non-classic change for no reason in particular. | |||
