Debt ground quest is rogue only. The other one in Misty isn't gonna guarantee you much. Could take several turn ins to make any kind of money though. Only 12 copper gauranteed, if you're lucky enough to get a potion though you're good for 1 spell, as stated above.

People have obviously been testing this over and over for weeks and know it works. You do the money quest first when it's similar in exp at level 1. As soon as you have enough gold you swap. Most classes only need at most ~1 plat for level 4.

I don't think it's the best start, it's not my start. But it's better than the newbie yard i am 100% sure.

1. So where is the bug report you filed?
2. So you think that with all the shit they've got to do in the 2 weeks before green, they are going to drop what they are doing and change this?
3. Where have you been with this shit for the last 10 years they've been working on this.

Give up.

1. https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...d.php?t=335869 (and yes the staff knows about this now)

2. It sucks you don't have any faith in P99's staff

3. Why is this question even relevant? First of all, this is a change that only applies to a specific small time of EQ's lifespan. I missed P99's first launch as I joined in 2010. I then took a 5-6 year break all together from P99. Just came back after the news about Green and am here now posting as it is now relevant to the project. There's your answer.

I'm all for the difficulty of classic. I don't mind things like the patches being in real time over the life of Green.

But when things like this that make a class unplayable are going to be implemented into the game, it makes me want to just create a toon on Blue and play there.

How is it unplayable? I played a magician day one of launch until 24th level (2-3 months after launch). It was the only toon I played until then. I had the time of my life! I still play classic EQ (P99) to this date. The mage class was far from unplayable. It just didn't feature the now OP low level pets we have today.

If you don't like the way a class was you don't have to play that class...you can pick a different one. Necros were always known for crapping all over mages. You can read it some of the old comments on the thread i linked.

Are you guys done yet? Can I have my thread back now please.

Still looking for 2 more players for mage class.

Even if there are no quests active at launch, and mage pets are nerfed, and whatever else the naysayers come up with...
We will still be far ahead of the casuals just by having one team fully committed to long long days at launch.
If you're planning on going hardcore, might as well join us.

I'll play only if you up it to 20 hours a day. I don't have time for casuals [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If all of the presented mage bug fixes go through, what is your groups back up plan?

-mage pets not casting any spells
-not duel wielding or able to equip weapons (and therefore no killing wisps/ghouls to much later)
-pets after level 20 all being research only
-pets eating 50 percent of all xp if they do majority of damage to the mob

etc?

So you essentially want to know what people would do if they decided to make Necromancers, Mages and Enchanters worthless right?

I'm guessing that you believe the staff of p99 will cave into all the whiners on the forums. The ones who want the game to be broken and a miserable experience for certain archetypes. The losers who get excited when they find some post validating their argument to weed out the fun.

Kind of a dumb question really. When people don't enjoy playing a game, they go play something else, but GL to all the sodomites out there who are giving it their all. Here's some music to listen to while you are researching the patch notes.
