Unhappy Rogean, I am sad.

The resist system is being "balanced", disregarding how it was in classic completely, so why do other completely imbalanced classic features still exist? What is the reasoning?

P99 has done so well, it is what everyone has wanted, classic everquest...

What is Red99 going to be? I'm really not sure at this point. Custom balanced content with classic imbalanced content to keep people on their toes?

Profound sadness...

Just make it classic dude, it's why we love this shit. Let the other mmo's spend ages shuffling numbers trying to achieve balance. We just want to play Everquest, that old game that we knew so well. It's Norrath, with all the imbalance, the inconvenience, the difficulty, the pixels and the midi. Just leave it be, P99 with some PvP. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's just a poorly worded poll with unclear options. There should be three options. 1. Classic. 2. Compromise. 3. New VZTZ Custom Bullshit.

lol.

People fail miserably at making polls in this forum, and they'll make retarded polls just to create the illusion that there's a majority vote for something. HERP DERP, create a poll where 'classic resists' isn't an option and use it as proof that people didn't vote for classic resists! Create a poll where item & coin loot are a single option when most people are for coin and against item loot! I'm starting to think most people around here never finished third grade.

Define classic? Exactly like it was on live? During which time line? Exactly how it was on live?

What about the fact that there were tons of completely retarded overpowered shit on live, but it worked out cause no one knew about it until they changed it (only very few knew) but here everyone knows.

There is no true definition of classic, the resist codes on live changed with every patch, no one can really pin point exactly how it was from each patch change unless you have a developer change log telling the exact algorithm changes from each patch.

I honestly don't see the big issues with the current system, at 75 mr i resist mostly all immobilize spells, sometimes they land for a second, not a big deal once i get jboots.

I think you have to define claasic as the following:

If you are playing an EMU without any expansions, the game should be like it was before Kunark was released.

Personally, I prefer classic to be "Launch day minus the bugs" but that is me.

The classic definition is defined all over this website, it's how the game was, no later than 1999. Simple...

The overpowered classic shit is my point. If we are balancing resists, where does it end? Why not balance Rogues? Rangers? Warriors? The answer normally given is that it's classic, but obviously that no longer applies. Which is terrible.

Exactly. If they are going to customize the server in the name of balance, why not do these things? It's not fair, and fair is apparently what they want. Rogues can't solo to save their lives, is that balanced? No, it's classic.
