With your announcement of the very last patch for blue and red and a totally non classic character select screen from omens of war, you all broke the game. This one will go down in history as on par with Warcraft for annoying the players enough to have them say enough.

Been a hell of a fun time till this show of disdain for loyalty. Peace out.

Sorry you feel that way... Goodbye and good luck on your future endeavours.

Classic isn't for everyone. Good luck!

Isey do you use a auto sense heading key?

if you do, get rid of it. Assign sense heading to an abilities page, then use /doability # and /pet report (or is it health report?) then you can have your pet update its hp each time you press a direction key. This is your new automatic sense heading key, with added pet health functionality.

Jimjam ftw.

I for one love this patch.

I don't think we realize how lucky we are as a community to have a group of people still working on our VERY niche shared hobby called classic EQ.

Hope the vocal minority doesn't hinder any progress with Green! Keep it up Staff!

that was for the most part erased by Sony, iirc

Another poster mentioned elsewhere you could then program a GINA trigger which projected a proxy hp bar based off your logs from your sense heading triggers.

I don't GINA so I have no idea how to implement that, but at least having the idea available is a start!

Pass. The in game method will work fine.

I have used it. I like the RP idea of a gnomish device. I vote to ban it though, its nothing but a crutch to increase laziness QoL. Its a game, if its not worth playing..

Confused about all the anger. My main is a 53 Enchanter. Heard about the changes, patched and logged in. Setup pet command macros and put them on a social bar. Played like normal.

Yes, it is an adjustment to have to query my pet's health frequently and pretty sure that will be even more hectic in a group setting. Just not like it ruined the game or anything. I had to pay just a bit more attention.

The OP's issue seems to be with the character select screen [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.], he isn't even complaining about the reduction in hotkeys or the removal of the pet window.

I don't see why people care that much, none of these changes (pet window, hotkeys) are deal breakers and if we are looking at it from a purist EQ classic view: the previous character select screen wasn't "classic" either.

Having said that I'm not a big fan of the let's keep it classic just for the sake of it. Some things were clearly worse in classic and not fun, no need to patch those back in [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. But the P1999 crew put a lot of work into it and they get to choose the direction they want to take their project in, and it is impressive that they managed to replicate a classic experience so well!
