Its very rare you get higher % of dmg on bow, so most of the time your hitting for about 50% or less of your max damage and it will never be viable until updated.

That makes sense. I never understood why bow damage doesn't have the same algorithm as primary/secondary on p99 but could not recall how it functioned on live. Fix please!

Wait... so does that mean raptors are viable for quadding again? hallefrickenlujah. Charm Kiting for the first time ever in my EQ career in Perma pits was a horrendous experience lmao

if it's helpful, here's a bit more feedback on the gamma issue:

as others have mentioned, the gamma becomes affected on both primary and secondary screens as soon as the beta server is selected and you hit connect. this also happens when connecting to blue or red in order to initiate a char copy. This does not happen when connecting to different servers (hidden forest, for example)

In response to people talking about classic and not being able to see -- human races (hum, bar, eru) couldn't see without light sources, but other races with infravision, ultravision, etc could. You know this. In addition, not being able to see as a function of race had no effect on the gamma of your UI, whereas this issue does.

So, we're not just talking darkness because it's night, we're talking darkness of your spell bar, inventory, etc.

hopefully that helps with pinpointing the issue.

BOOM - that is the problem, and it's not classic. Not only your EQ UI, but your OS UI and every other app on you system.

^ puppet strings are literally invisible in your inventory

I am sure other item icon's are suffering the same fate

Guess i should have waited before doing half my shaman epic blergh. didnt even know there was an issue with standard quest and having to faction grind even when doing quest from start to finish.

Either my bank just blew up or a whole ton of stones got deleted. Haha. I just pictured The Block being flooded with little, black, round pebbles. The bank tellers flipping out saying W T F...

The local Cab economy will be stalled because no one can get money from the bank!

Seriously, Thank you for the work. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I too experienced the DARK effect on both of my monitors after logging on last night and thought it was a bug with video drivers so I rebooted and messed with OS gamma and nVidia graphics settings trying to get it back to where I can see things but then got tired and gave up and went to bed. Figure I would mess with it again when I get home tonight after work. But it made EVERYTHING dark on my PC on both monitors.
