Monks are hybrids of kick and punch?

I am a Ranger.

Combo, that was a very well thought out post that expressed the opinions of many in a mature and civilized manner and I applaud you.

I realize there are supporters and people against this, however, how many of these supporters would be for this if they were still leveling up and not level 50 and fully geared? Also, as one dev explained to me in a PM, they were thinking of doing a rollback of the entire server to fix this "experience" problem. Just an assumption, but I would say all the level 50's would become level 35-40 if that did in fact occur. Should we force people who have achieved 50 in an easier manner to experience the level grind again because when they leveled the code was wrong and in order to keep it true to classic they should be required to experience the hellish grind that this change is making? I am 50 myself, however, it is not on a toon I wish to raid with. If I were capped on the toon I wished to raid with, I probably wouldn't be complaining much either. I know this project is to recreate what was once as good as gold to us but there is an issue at hand. Players didn't know about this penalty until Velious. We know about it now and it's going to cause a huge stir now and even worse come Kunark.

I went and fired up the wayback machine, and pulled up some of the original hackersquest exp tables they figured out. I will run some numbers in the next day or so, and see how we compare to back in 1999-2000 time range.

We may be right on. We might be off a bit. But I will see about putting together some hard data to prove it one way or another.

In my spare time .....

ROFL, so wait, someone implemented the 40% hybrid-group penalty?

Jesus, that was fucking stupid. And lame.

This is just another example of the devs having their heads up their asses. Instead of focusing on fixing what is broken they focus on breaking what was fixed. It's just dumb to remove features like interface improvements and adding xp penalties. They should focus on game content that is where the classic experience is.

I do not program content.

I pinch.

Yeah, we should also go up to the current EQ live expansion because apparently their game isn't broken and it's already fixed. They don't have problems with their interface and xp penalties...

So how about you go fucking play with them instead?

Fail. Let me guess... You are one of the selfish pricks who think they will benefit from this.
