First unclassic (but classic) ZEM changes, and now unclassic (but classic) recharging nerfs?!?

You know what makes this server feel even more classic than any actual classic or unclassic changes themselves? Once again having a MMOG with active developers ... just like we had back in 1999-2001 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I had to second this because I love this post.

Clickies (and their quirks) are a huge part of what makes classic Everquest so distinctive and fun. I collected them as a middle schooler way back on live and it is/was my favorite thing about P99. This is really disappointing.

You might have collected them but you didn't use them in the way the p99 raid scene does. Nobody is stopping you from collecting them. Go nuts

People are going to be upset by this change, If the staff knew this was not how classic era played.
Why didn't they make this change 10 years ago! This is just like the 25 AE cap.

It's funny to see the outrage that existed on the forums when the pet window was taken away not be mirrored here. So many people are content playing the game with minimal utilization of resources to be a competitive player, instead just want to grind the same redundant content over and over, barely fumbling their way through a fraction of their classes kit and happy to call it a day.

Having tanked everything in the classic era on a war without the huge amount of clickies we use on p99, it's all very doable. Guess some guilds that rely on deep wallets and bags of clickables might have to Git Gud.

It's hilarious that you're saying the definition of high skill in Everquest is... auto attacking the mob for aggro procs and rolling a normal CH chain.

Yikes.

Guys, throw in a few bucks donation today https://www.project1999.com/

These 3 guys worked FOR FREE on a game that you've probably spent hundreds of hours on. And I know you're probably going to order takeout today, just take one appetizer off the order and donate instead. Do it!

To be fair, P99 is still the best custom EverQuest server around. At least we can finally put to rest the claims of this trying to be a classic recreation.

Is there a better and/or more classic classic server around?

I think not.
