The information about optolythic data rods suggests they are a fictional technology
used in the Star Trek universe for secure, tamper-proof data storage. There is no indication that they utilize liquid crystal as a medium.
Liquid crystals, however, are a real-world technology with potential applications in data storage, particularly holographic storage
close enough

You should find some archive info on this. Would make Cheetah so much nicer on those runs from OT to Chardok to recharge ring haha
Wish I could remember the exact dates it was like that. I'm pretty sure it was pre-kunark because I would use the cooldown reset after zoning to quickly get between guk and EC quickly on my shaman. Once kunark came out I was always in kunark, and don't remember being able to do it there.

That's the beauty of that show (How To, on Max).

Essentially, the guy just follows the weirdest people he can find around with a camera, and somehow he gets them to produce really great footage. For instance, that show started out being about memory, but he ran into a guy at a grocery store who talked about the Mandela Effect, and it led to him filming that "convention".

Oh I also remember the spell shrink working outdoors, not just potions, because I remember that when playing my dwarf cleric running around butcherblock, it always felt like you were moving so much faster because your view is lower to the ground, so any time I was in BB or any other outdoor zone on my shaman I'd double shrink myself using the spell. I never trained alchemy on my live shaman, so I know I wasn't using a potion. Once again though, no idea on the specific date range other than between 99 and 2001 when I quit

This actually sounded vaguely classic, so I went looking for evidence. I found a forum post titled "Shrink Nerf" from 4/25/00 on The Shaman's Crucible ... but sadly the post itself has been lost to time.

I don't know how else they could have nerfed shrink (I mean, they could have raised the mana cost or lowered the range or something, but why?) ... but still better evidence is likely needed to restore outdoor shrinking on Green 2.0.

Yeah that's gotta be it... date totally makes sense, sounds like it was likely a nerf that happened right around kunark launch.

Must find more evidence, cruising around everywhere as a mini barbarian was so fun.

Here, I'll easily get multiple in a day, and even two in a row isn't all that unheard of.
maybe you just a shitty caster.

Low level mobs are way to soft here. I remember at level 9 really struggling against blues, even with a bunch of banded armor and a fay mart weapon like mino axes.

Here the same fights are trivial in tattered armor and tarnished weapons. Honestly it feels better this way - that you can keep up with mobs a little longer just in the things you scrounge/craft, but I don't think it is classic.

I love games that allow crafting to be useful but not top tier.

Also faymart is top tier. Thank you for the lulz.
