It is bizarre the me that anyone plays p99 for "challenge" or "accomplishments".

Need to reevaluate your lives, dudes.

Uhh, EQ is a lot more unforgiving then any new mmo out today. When you win at something that is unforgiving (challenge) you come out feeling like you gained something (accomplishments). Other then newer mmos where your really never work for anything and never feel like you gained anything then lose interest.

Everything in the above post shows you have no idea how pvp on red99 works because root lands all the time. You can't just auto attack someone because people joust aka move around and time their attacks. Wizards don't just stand toe to toe casting sunstrike. Perhaps it's for the best you don't play on red because its clear you don't know how to play.

You auto attack as a melee when your jousting lol just because your moving doesn't mean your not still auto attacking. Also never said wizards would stand in one spot and spam you just root move then spam. You can try to sugar coat it as much as you want but eq pvp is broken down into two ways to play, root nuke or auto attack and run. Also the camera control was ASS in classic and was so much harder to kite when pvping, you have it so much easier now you don't even know.

If this was the case the best dmg or dps wep would win hands down, however with actual skill in jousting and yes it does take skill i dont care what anyone attempts to con volute that jousting is just auto attack and win, you may be thinking of two people standing toe to toe fighting not actual PVP. Jousting takes skill.

It sounds like you either never played eq pvp specifically on jousting you dont just keep auto attack on and expect a hit when your target is in range, you need to be keen on alot of factors which include the race of your target along with the delay of your weapon which you absolutely DO NOT KEEP AUTO ATTACK ON.

Why do people say this? I've stopped casting root entirely because it never, ever lands. The only time it probably would is on naked people, but I of course don't attack them. The time it takes to cast would be better spent nuking or dispelling.

Actually I do know since I played eq since release. You've basically completely removed the role of pelling / healing / clickies / stuns / mez etc

Yea in group pvp it would be a good idea to have others to support the dps but lets be real here who rolls a non dps class on a pvp server that has all vets and a 100ish pop. Most of the pvp that happens here is from melee dps with 2hs or casters.

Everything you're posting shows you have no clue what red is like. Red isn't for everyone, it may even not be for most people, but it isn't the way you're describing right now.
