Off the disks? Lol. Do you have any concept behind what EQEmulator and the staff here does to recreate the content for you to play in?

You lost all credibility in this thread with that statement alone.

So why then do we have --- Custom Spell Files? Why is it that EQlive scans your computer and automatic updates your files on your computer?

I know before the time of Custom Spell Files, I could install off disk and suddenly i had actual AE spells. I am 100 % sure of this.

An example of this - In South Kar- I could gather up all skels at undead camp nuke em down in 1 shot. Then along came a spider and clicked on me. Immediately-- Yes, Immediately-- after the click i could only nuke 4.

(a separate matter, the mob i was trying to kill Lord Grimrott, spawned very next cycle back to back first undead, then live.)

I'd seen this trick before -- yes this trick-- before on Mag DSes. When i first installed the game the MAG DS was 25. Along came a spider... and clicked on me. Immediately the MAG DS dropped .

So in South Kar at the undead ring i reinstalled , and poof problem solved. I could immediately AE nuke.

I'm not making this up. Answer the question- Why do you have, custom spell files if spells files don't matter? And discrediting me ? grow up, how many alias are you going to make?

This is why i don't play anymore. Too many--- Cheats

You're fucking retarded. I'd be ashamed as an enchanter and an EverQuest player in general to get behind any "movement" you are trying to make because you obviously have no understanding of this game, nor the class you are so vehemently bitching about.

Spell files, indeed, are in the game folder on your computer. Want to know what they contain? Strings to output to your client in the form of cast and worn off messages. Spell durations for your client to properly track buffs / debuffs. Even if the client is telling you that your Lava Shield lasts 803910 minutes and is doing OVER 9000 damage a hit, it doesn't mean that it's true.

Do you honestly... and I want you to muster every last defunct brain cell in your tiny little skull to think about this.... HONESTLY believe that any pertinent spell data is contained ON YOUR COMPUTER? If that was the case, open the fucking file and change the OMG 10 EXTRA HATE addition to your Tash spells to instead cast cheal upon you, instantly kill the mob, and make God himself come down from fucking heaven and jizz naked women and riches upon your pathetic, broken-minded body.

Yes, sir, you are absofuckinglutely discredited from contributing ANYTHING to any conversation of importance. Ever.

Hasn't this hit an all-time low yet?

I'm offended now, being the Erudite I am.

This thread BOGGLES MY MIND.

Charm almost **NEVER** lasted full duration during classic era. Not for a chanter with 255 CHA etc.

What exactly makes you chanters think that you're entitled to constant full-duration charms!?

YOU'RE NOT A PET CLASS -- HELL YOU'RE NOT EVEN A DPS CLASS. Charmed pets turn your chanter into THE BEST pet class in the game, and one of the best DPS classes. Charm having a random duration is to BALANCE this fact.

God I wish I had known charm was full duration on P99....I would have rolled a chanter instantly. It's funny...cuz I asked COUNTLESS chanters that I saw charming "hey...how long do your charms usually last?"

They almost always said "not very long...its unreliable." Then I would sit there and watch them kill mobs for another 5 minutes without a single charm break. Obviously they were trying to keep it very hush-hush because they KNEW it wasn't balanced and/or accurate to 1999.

Haha me and a friend were just talking about this last night.

It's something that's pretty unique to old-school EverQuest and without a doubt one of my favorite aspects of the game.

It's not about thinking outside the box....there IS NO BOX.

[Hoggen]

I was in a group with an ench last night and he charmed pretty regularly the whole time. He had no trouble at all keeping mobs under control. Maybe you suck?

[EkireiTheNecro]

Another thing I've noticed on this server....

When I played my Warrior during classic the well-known, common practice was to taunt a mob several times before breaking mez.

I've yet to see any tank do this.

Had a charmed pet pretty much all day in multiple zones including KC, Howling STones and Seb. Yesterday I had a charmed pet during my stay in Chardok. Good times. Random duration, as it should be. But manageable with a good group and malo.

Not sure how long you've been playing here, but if you think 10min long durations were crazy you should have seen it pre-whirl till you hurl nerf. Now that was crazy because you could completely stun lock a mob for an entire fight in addition to having a super OPed pet that you didn't have to worry about charm breaking with. (Don't forget lull/mez either).

Its funny that you brought that up, because I was high level mage in kedge when I started to notice enchanters and thought about making one because of all the above factors but figured theyd get the big ol nerf sooner or later.

[redghosthunter]

Its funny how many people actually log in to bash someone Vs. How many people will actually log in to talk about an issue.

If ya read what was written earlier the purpose of this thread was to discuss Charm post April update. Much ATTENTION was brought to the issue. I mentioned a page or 2 ago that all the issues were brought out and i felt that

---- THE THREAD TOPIC ---- was covered.

I've listed how in 2001 charm was done. By Spell Formula, and Spell Duration. As usual the harpies of the server are trying to derail a perfectly good thread

I will further make a thread so you can personally attack me.
