Project 1999 has had to hodgepodge every aspect of the game play to emulate live. the systems aren't the same they are guessed based on logs when available. Logs only show frequency of breaks and stuff. Then they need to make a code that approximate that frequency and hope that it is close enough to actual.

They do their best. Enchys are strong here. For a long time rogues and monks and warriors could channel clickies and they were pretty much incredible. Still are, but even ore so.

I don’t care if they want to program in an artificial charm break every 3-5 minutes and say it’s based on people’s memories of live

My enchanter is level 40 with probably less than 5 days /played time. No doubt there’s enchanters on here who are already max or near max level, working on their epic, etc. Or ones trying to charm solo their way through a 50+ hell level. Those are the ones who are going to be fucked, and probably pretty disappointed

I would switch to Necro if they made chanters shit here based on some vague memory with no actual code to even use to emulate it. Or switch to a different game. Not a big deal

I clicked through the more guides link at the bottom of the page and reached a charming one: https://web.archive.org/web/20030508...EW.ASP?ID=3746
Right, and as I've said: people did charm in classic. That guide proves what we already knew: that charming was possible on live, just as it is here.

What I'm saying is that there were 20 guides on the page I linked, and as you found a whole bunch more on the rest of the site ... but you found one on charming. If live players had all the same tools back then we have now (and we agree: they did) ... and if it was as easy/safe/effective as it is here ... why wasn't it the topic of 50+% of the guides?

The reply here seems to be "on live, only one in a thousand ever tried using their class spells to get XP, and he had a terrible Internet connection" ... and there's absolutely some truth to that! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

But it doesn't fully explain the gigantic delta between us and live: many did have stable connections, there were tons of guides, forum discussions, etc. about the best way to level ... but while charm is obviously better here, it was barely mentioned there. Why?

First off, don’t give your house address to strangers on the internet. I would have picked a place in the area, probably at a boxing gym ideally, had you wanted to come to me

Secondly, it is kind of you to wait for the folks to leave. I would feel guilty beating you up in front of your mom. But if we meet at a gym, they wouldn’t be there anyway. Giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you are taking care of them and that’s why you live with them

I don’t see it as worth the money to travel just for you but if you let me know the general area (don’t pick somewhere close if you are worried I’m a hackerman who would try to doxx) in the US, I’ll keep it in mind if I’m ever in the area. I wouldn’t get too excited tho, I rarely travel

Not if you ban macros and interrupt-grade packet intercept scripts. Arthritis. I haven't been able to double click in 10 years.

Hook up some cortisone, then it's a go. You can do that, right?

I don't believe anything any general poster says here.

You're old. You don't remember how it was 20 years ago. Get over it.
