During POP the reason bards got Nerfed was not because of MQ2. It was clearly stated why. Bards were swarm kiting the Plane of Nightmare close to the zone in. It caused players not to be able to exp due to lack of mobs, they would die from bard swarms and it halted quest and progression in that area. Zone disruption.

No. The PoN camp was far enough away from the zone in that I don't see how that would have been an issue. No one really cared about those werewolves except for bards. You could swarm them w/ charm right in their little corner and have 0 issues with adds. I spent a lot of time in PoN and rarely saw anyone even bother exping outside of a few spots that were far from the werewolves. AoE songs/AA ate shit largely because of HoH. It wasn't ever about zone disruption but about how easy it was to solo farm AAs.

It was about zone disruption.

Since SoE hosted same zones on same server, having multiple bards AE kite in the same zone would overburden that server, causing serverwide lag in the zone.

Same issue with earthshaker / war rampage disc. I would make Nadox a slideshow on every server, pulling 120 mobs and proccing 30+ AEs on all of them at once.

just fyi, im coming up on 50 from soloing as a mage, This is classic.... And tons of groups will accept you because not everyone knows your a wizard with better nukes yet. and think the pet is fine lol. keep on keepin on.

It's called The Quest, aka Everquest, for a reason. And it is the best game ever.

There is nothing special at reaching 50. Still isnt classic, just is similar to what it was at release. The only difference is we are already equivalent to 6+ month in progression wise compare to the orginale release.

Original release dosent equate to "classic"

Next iteration can we ask for 12-14 hour downtime per days, hours of chat room session and shit like that ?

Also leveling soloing low con blue 6 minutes spawn is for a special type of people. Glad you enjoy that [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Anything to keep me out of antonican pox dungeons. my lord the pox has taken hold of about everyone but < Seal Team > .

too many antonicans running around in bronze with noticable pock marks from the long grind in desert like conditions with a flailing mace treating black burrow like its a vulak pull, or bringing 12 mobs in when the chanter is new to the game.

Love my solo quest.

AE kiting 100+ mobs in Nadox, and using earthshaker / rampage in that zone, is what lead to both nerfs.

While these tricks weren't so widespread that they caused many complaints from players, players did wonder why performance in some zones (HoH) was so terrible.

It was just people mass killing on other servers.
