Loramin ain't original classic, neither is his innacurate wiki.

I am, I was there. I camped my epics, I grouped, I raided, as it unfolded in real-time, and without Loramin's wiki to teach me parrot fashion how tie my own shoe laces.

I learned on the go, and discovered things for myself just like we all did. We spoke in-game and had fun together, we didn't sit on Discordd waiting for a sale to come through.

There wasn't anybody back then telling us to check the wiki like there is today.

I remember my friend twinking his brand new DE warrior in 1999.

A full suit of Bronze armor and an Executioner's Axe.

I was in awe and he looked amazing.

Full rubicite was considred godly back then.

On P99 though, I killed some brutes for gems and purchased an item which drops from a L62 mob so now my low level Ranger has a Frostbringer which isn't supposed to happen.

I mean, it's fun being a low level twink with a weapon beyond my reach but it ain't classic. Commercial sellers dedicating their life to killing high value targets for profit isn't classic...that's exploitation of advanced knowledge.

Lower Guk is beyond the reach of a level 1 Dark Elf Warrior.

That was in 1999. I believe that was Classic era.

Could you not access Velious content during Classic era?

When I was active on Blue we were just giving Frostbringers away. Very easy to just kill a bunch of dragons for head to replace it.

Congrats on understanding how time works. We don’t have to crank cars to start them either.
