Well, in spite of all of the negative things i've read, I decided that my heart was into a Wizard. I never tried one in live, and the ports sound fun and tempting, so despite what most of you have said, i'm gonna be playing one. The name is Dravex, and i'm level 15 now, look forward to suffering along through this classic experience with the rest of you gluttons for punishment (Wizards). =D See you in game!

I did too, but that lasted ...oh, about 10 levels, heh. I quit live long ago because I wasn't having fun anymore. I'm not doing that again. I totally dig the nostalgia, but it is only 50% of why I started again on 1999. The other 50% is entertainment. But hey, whatever floats the ole boat. Good on ya man!

I find the first 10 levels the worst. Not really the worst, maybe the most boring. After that just join a group and level up, real easy.

As I've said before, most people are super nice in the game here. I mean really, really nice! Kudos to all of you I've met in P99 so far!!

With /lfg on I may get an invite right away. If you're a 20+ wizard you don't need to find a port. Sometimes you may have to be a bit aggressive and go right up a group at the camp point and ask leader if they would like you. If they are full they'll give you a time-frame of who is leaving. If they are not full, I've been given an invite every time. I have very limited time to play with a family of 6, so every second I'm on has to be efficiently played. I am not interested in the fastest way to level, I'm interested in the way to have the most fun and that is usually with a group. It really comes down to how active / passive a person you are.

On a side note, the only really weird thing I've encountered is an SK that won't tank in MM. Kinda weird, but happened the last two nights and it's caused a bit of havoc in the group. So strange!

Shit is messed up on this server if a mage is out-burt DPSing a wizzie at level 60 in Kunark. Maybe that's why they just knocked pet damage down?

Pets started out VERY op'd on this server. Mages were really OP'd in classic and that translated to here as well. On live Kunark/Velious era and beyond mages had no chance at burtst DPS over a wizzie, none.

Wizard also awesome when pulls are healer intensive.

Anywho, the defense rests.

I'm sorry that you don't understand etiquette or have standards. If you want a service from someone then you need to offer something for it. They may not end up charging you anything for it but that is their decision, not yours.

I'm a shaman. Don't tell me about buffing etiquette you self important tool.

I agree, if you're not offering up something you better be sugary nice in asking to have any reasonable shot of getting said buffs.

I hate that crap, so I just offer to pay and everyone's even happier.

"Hey there, could I possibly trouble you for a SOW please?"
is MUCH better than
"50p for sow plz"

I don't care about your damn plat, I care about you communicating like a reasonable human being.

What the hell is this, Bartertown?

This is a game, man. You hit a button, pixels come out, someone is happy, you sit for a few seconds, the blue bar goes back up. That's it.
