Any point to a Mage alt if you already have a necro?

I was around pre-kunark.

There was one gnome mage I know broke/cleared that camp, he used to solo farm ghoul lord as well.

P.S. You weren't that great of a mage.

confirmed - solo'd w/ mage and bard before kunark

enchanter too.. but was before charm was nerfed

Trouble is about everything has been nerfed since this game started. Classic. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] And well maybe lots to go.

Charm wasn't nerfed. It was fixed.

Before the fix charm was stupidly broken.

Nothing like charming a mob as a necro and FDing to let it just fight it out with another mob risk free.

Or charm lasting full duration 99% of the time every cast, no resist debuff.

that was true in 2009 - not anymore

though a retarded overstatement, charm probably does need an adjustment in that direction

It's cute that a confirmed and banned cheater thinks he has the ability to judge others.

Lets talk about the Mage Pre-Kunark.(on P99)

Things that people exploited as a mage that were not technically "Exploits":

1) Unlimited chain pets with no fear of ever getting aggro.
2) Pets damage/mitigation were better than they are now.(was nerfed in Kunark on this server, necro pets too)
3) The money maker right here: You could reclaim your pet and gain mana back like a manastone (without the loss of health), regardless of whatever the pet's health was.

So before we try to whip out our metal dicks and attempt to be badass, remember, we are all exploiters of broken mechanics.
