It is already in its final form.

Still has good +mana though.

I swear someone was BP clicking on red yesterday, I'd better keep that to myself [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I believe it's two nerfs. Right now you can still click for a ch, now 30 sec cast time that leaves a 7 min debuff on the person healed. So you can CH someone every 7 minutes with 30 sec cast time. Next nerf I think goes to a hott or some other type of heal.

30 seconds + 7.5 minute buff preventing another cast is the final form.

It was 20 second cast from Kunark -> Velious + 2 weeks, then it was nerfed to 30 second cast, no recast restriction for another 3 months, then it was finally nerfed to include the recast restriction.

Velious released here in the final form with recast restriction.

The Velious Quest/PoG BPs were supposed to start with a 6 second cast Celestial Elixir, meaning you can basically spam heal 4 people for 1200 HP a tick mana free for a couple of weeks after release. Then it gets nerfed to ~24 second cast time, still equaling 300hp/tick regen per BP, then nerfed again to 1 minute cast time. A week later it was to be Mark of Karn instead.

P99 never even implemented the Celestial Elixir version of Velious BPs.

They're common and therefore cheap, but I dunno why anyone uses Wu sticks before the proc. And even then, they're only good for aggro.

Ciroco, I agree. I never understand why newbs use Wu's Trance Stick instead of fighting batons. More damage and only slightly slower delay. Not like you can use the proc at level 1 anyways...

And too many others to list.

What I've always found disconcerting about the market and prices on P99 is that they far too often resemble near identical prices, as they were back on the old servers.
That's not mere convenience. The fact that we're intentionally pricing items based on old economic data, is bad.

I would have thought - in the spirit of allowing old and new players alike - to revisit and enjoy classic EverQuest, that charity would have come before greed.
If everyone priced things lower or more reasonably, then it would balance itself out.

I really dislike selling most things because the prices are ridiculous. Though if I don't get the full (or near full) value, then I am unable to move onto making my purchases, because the seller isn't going to necessarily feel the way I do ; and so the cycle continues.

Agree with this list except Goblin Gazughi Ring.

As a charming class, that things changes your world. Every good Druid/Enchanter/Bard should carry one. Instant charm breaks are very handy, especially when leveling.

When you only have a couple hundred plat, everything is overpriced.
