Enchanters didn't charm until PoP dire charm AA

i had no idea about necro mez until someone told me
no way i would have thought to do that on charm breaks lol
maybe thats the beauty of the game

I'm sorry but to say people didn't know how to play the class in Era is a load of crap.

Yes, this is provably false but a favorite distraction of the Enchanter defenders. There are tons of 1999 posts about people knowing exactly how to play Enchanter. They knew about CHA, mez to break, all the same stuff. The problem was it just didn't work like it does here. It was buggy, channeling was difficult, etc.

All of this is already proven. Evidence provided. Staff doesn't care. It's a moot point. Channeling on P99 is so ridiculously stupidly broken but the staff won't even say a peep about the evidence on this. Makes literally everything in this game 10x easier than it should be on P99.

The only actual evidence that has been provided is about channeling. The other “evidence” are random player posts from 20+ years ago that are contradicted by other player posts and guides (including one in era player written guide that calls Charm the most powerful spell enchanters have and details how to charm solo). Honestly the biggest difference is simply technology; the game was very laggy unless you had a great computer (which most people didnt) and Internet disconnects were extremely frequent (btw the latter helped to influence the “camping” meta that arose because groups didn’t want to move through a dungeon and have people go LD).

Btw where’s that treatise you told all of us you were writing with actual evidence that was gonna prove how charm isn’t classic? Lol loser

I also don't think Monks were as tanky 20 years ago. Now keep in mind I mained a Monk named Zerazia, and a Rogue named Tajin... at no point did I ever feel like my Monk was a tank.. I could kind of tank on my monk... but I could also kind of tank on my Rogue by this same standard...

When I hit 50s the reason I chose to play my Rogue over my Monk was that they were both essentially melee DPS, but my Rogue did WAY MORE Dps than my monk... again I didn't consider my monk to be a tank... no one did really..

flash forward 20 years later and I come to p99 and Bebquix basically tanked for my cleric from level 8 all the way to level 50... like man I really dont remember monks being this tanky.. and my monk had pretty much BIS everything and was a super twink.. froglok crown, gator scale leggings, granite bracers, treant fists etc. the whole nine yards. Bebquix was running around in cloth armor tanking the fuck out of shit and I don't remember monks being that gangster, I really don't.
