Look up any screens of the bixie event in EC tunnel if you don't think aoeing 100 mobs at a time was a thing the game supported in 2001 genius. Literal GM event that involved the very thing I need screens for you to believe. Can you prove with a screenshot you ever actually played this game before p99 or live PoP?

So basically you have no proof? k.

Yes, Ogres are about the best warriors, and like you said are hated by most. But Trolls are despised to an even greater extent. The Slam ability is a huge asset, thier big size however, is a dungeon nightmare, so you get to buy plenty of shrink potions, or make real nice with shammies.

Trolls have higher AGI dex, + regen (and the manual is wrong when it says they have ultra vision, they don't) While it is true that the regen is negligible later on, it will make the first 10 or so levels a bit easier. If you want to make a good warrior thats liked a bit better, Barbs are a good choice, they still get slam (im not sure about the slam defense) and are fairly strong. In a list if best to worst, IMHO it would go:

Ogre
Troll
Barbarian
Dwarf
Half Elf
Wood Elf
Half Elf
Iksar
Human
Dark Elf
Halfling
Gnome (the wussies of the fighter world, without good gear they can barely carry thier armor.)

If you decide on an ogre, get ready to hear "move yer fat butt" a lot. And roleplay.. Ogres=Roleplayers

Interested to see how the change plays out, but I'm not excited about it. Seems like putting it only in certain high level zones would be appropriate - now I can't aoe Warrens to get my paineel key faction?

Don't really get how you're trying to spin this as an enjoying the nerd rage thang considering it adversely affects people who play the game the normal way, and represents the staff breaking from classic because they couldn't handle enforcing the PNP...

Seems like the terrorists won. can u explain how are u smug about that?

he doesn't have to spin. nearly all of us are enjoying the nerd rage. nobody thinks a few paid volunteers should be on call to enforce pnp 24/7.

and if you're not one of the people enjoying it, well, it's your nerd rage, do what you like.

Admittedly generous of me to do for someone so mad at the world that he would call the recently deceased a piece of shit for his elfsploits but I digress.

Wait, what? Who died?

Personally I wish they'd lower the cap to something more realistic.... Like 10.

Gah no edit feature. QQ.

Anyway server could do without PL'ers and aoe farmers. Might be people to actually group with in some of the less used dungeons.

Huuuge nerf to wizards. Cant belive nilbog finally crumbled into this silly pressure about no AE'ing zones... this is a classic feature. i live in Brazil and i was able to AE sebilis without desync issues on a 56k dial up modem. The #25mobs id just waaay too low. I agree that the 140 mobs in chardok isnt classic but 25 isnt either.

I recall easy 60mobs been AE'd down in sebilis. /shrugs. Sad to see this changed even thou doesnt affect me at all since i am already 60 on everything i wanted.
