New Players, yay!

[Laledorie]

A guild from Fennin Ro from back in the olden days... Although from what I've heard, it's nothing like the original TMO that I knew. But then again, I don't know any of these new TMO-ers so who knows... Maybe they do actually have souls? ;-)

People like this guy are the problem with the forums on p99. He doesn't like the way something is, so he goes on and on and on death and fire and brimstone about the state of the endgame or the server just because he's butthurt about it.

I've been 60 for like 10 months with my enchanter. I am not only NOT in TMO, I'm not even in one of the other big guilds (divinity, europa, taken, fe, etc). But I have a fuckload of fun on p99. Spore king with guild, planes raids, soloing and duoing and grouping in the bottom of HS and hole and seb, helping out new players on the server with random drive-by buffs, etc. And of course leveling alts has always been a fun thing for most people, and part of the classic experience.

If this dude is 60 and all he does is hate, fear, sky, and sit doing nothing in seb or kc, it is no one's fault but his own. It's true that you need to be in TMO to have a shot at killing VP dragons, but even TMO doesn't get all of the non-VP mobs (just the lion's share). And again, there is much more to do in the game than kill said boss mobs.

i, for one, enjoy going back to all of the low-mid level zones that used to cause my troll SK so much grief on live and obliterating every trace of life in them.

It's fun to regularly see new players popping into the forums, announcing that they are starting (or restarting) p99. This place is great, endgame and trolls and all, you just need to remember that this is a GAME and so it is about having fun. Just because someone else did x, y, or z and said it was fun doesn't mean you need to or should follow in their footsteps. A huge part of the fun in classic and on p99 was/is exploring and finding your own way in the world, though sometimes with some guidance.

If any new players have questions about anything, feel free to shoot me a PM or a tell. My 'specialties' are enchanters and soloing, but I've done at least a little bit of everything on p99 over the last few years. If you "/who all A-Team" odds are any of us who are online would be willing to answer your questions too (and if they aren't, tell them it's my fault).

A-Team people always very cool and classy. Much respect. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Are these other big guilds not able to band together and take content away from TMO? I mean its not like having access to a couple of the big time bosses makes you that much better than everyone else.

If you dont like it, change it.

Im not 60 or anywhere close, and I look forward to getting some classic items along the way. In either case when I do get there, Im not planning to let some group of "hardcore" players ruin my day.

The mechanics in place on the server, coupled with TMO's dedication to killing gods/dragons, make it hard to "compete." Most people don't like TMO's dominance, but they don't dislike it enough that they're willing to drastically change their playstyles in order to get a piece of the action.

Can someone explain the xp bonuses on both P99 and R99 as well as the hybrid penalties.

Thanks!

Some searching on this very board might help you out. Also the wiki.

I already read the from 20% up to 50% then down to 20%

But I play a gnome necro and it doesnt feel like 50% increase over the classic game. What am i Missing?
