Default Agnarr official launch thread

Official launch thread for the agnarr server, post here if you plan on playing, if you have a static group ready to go or if your looking for people to play with. Also please don't shit up this thread, if you don't plan on playing don't reply, its that simple.

I'm planing on playing a Troll SK and have one on Phinny ATM. I'm exploring around to prep. Don't know anyone from p99 going yet because its been forever since I raided / had contact with people.

I'm mostly concerned about Krono farmers somehow shitting up the server. I have a feeling it won't matter as much as the bitchers say it will -- because that is almost always the case. But I'm prepared for it to be chaotic the first 5-6 months or so.

The main thing I'm afraid of: my class may prove obsolete to leveling crews who are obsessed with efficiency and charm groups.

I have a question for anyone who knows about Mage Pets on Agnarr:

https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/...-mages.239935/

Is there anyone who knows how strong they will be exactly? For all we know, mage armies will be dead until Luclin (IMO an obvious thing to do from a dev standpoint).

Pretty shitty, you can log on phinny and play with them a bit, only difference is that MoTM and aggro transfer will be on agnarr which makes pet classes even worse. Necro's somewhat get a pass since they do add some decent raid dps but i personally wouldn't touch mages with a 10 foot pole.

Ill be rolling a human wiz at launch.

The most annoying thing about mages is pets getting wrecked taking aoe damage. Although they can still pump out same solid deeps and are helpful for certain fights such as praesertums, I would much prefer playing a wiz. Also cuts the obligation to summon 9000 items a raid.

If you aren't going to raid or enjoy being a support class they're fine.

I'm going to play... just don't know for how long! :P I'm thinking either an SK or a Necro. I am inclined toward Necro only because I've played that class since 2001.

How did class popularity pan out on the other TLP server that was true box? I'm curious if certain classes end up a dime a dozen, or maybe are very commonly boxed but rarely mained, stuff like that. I don't want to play a chanter if every third character is a chanter using charm to power through content, or a bard if tons of people have a bard boxing mana/regen, or a wizard if lots of people just do the lazy wizard nuke nuke sit afk 10 minute thing with a box... etc.

But I also don't want to pick a class based on what won't be popular and then I realize it's unpopular because mechanics that I don't even know about due to live server changes over the last decade totally change the class from what I expect it to be capable of, etc.

IIRC on P99, for reference, druids and necromancers are the most popular by a fair margin; monk, shaman, enchanter, and cleric also being well represented; ranger and paladin being RARE; and the other classes being less popular but not rare by any stretch.

Well i don't know about the previous TLP servers but in faceless guild there is a charter showing total classes with top 3 being ENC/CLR/NEC and the bottom 3 being ROG/WIZ/PAL so im assuming thats how the class balance on agnar will be, especially considering how big facelessgaming is.
