It's plenty obvious when the druid you have on autofollow 99% of the time suddenly becomes active after a GM shows themselves as you quickly rush to get your wife to move the character in circles after rehearsing it.

LOL @ your assumption that someone that boxes characters can get a wife.

Oh shoot Deathrydar is here?! We used to talk on Eqclassic, my name was something like Excalibur. You and Xarpolis were the best. He was also buddies with Brael, basically the most famous shadowknight and all around great guy too. (I'm just a Brael fan since I was a kid)

Not sure if I'm joining this server, but it's just really cool to see you're still alive and kicking with a sense of humor to boot! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

nearly everything is already done for this project, so the only thing preventing a timely release is politics.

That and actually restricting a few quests, implementing classic CT, and having enough time so people can take off work for the launch.

I got myself all signed up and added to the discord.
Awaiting any and all news!
On a related topic, what classes are great in this era of EQ? Is it true knights can solo dragons with the right aas?

Enchanters (surprise!) are super powerful as their charm pets only get more insane. Nothing will be better exp than a group with a charm pet.

Druids get a form of CH in Luclin that generates 0 threat and also gets upgraded in PoP so they become very capable healers while retaining all the utility they're classically known for.

Beastlords won't be available until Luclin but they're quite strong all-around too. They get slows, can take a hit pretty well and are very good DPS with their pets. Plus they can cast Spiritual Purity and Paragon of Spirits (AA) for extra mana regen.

Magicians finally get to replace their epic pet in PoP but only marginally. Mainly because the epic pet is stuck at level 46 or whatever and has a hard time going toe-to-toe with PoP stuff.

Shamans lose their ability to solo like they do here after Velious; mobs start hitting harder, have more HP and Torpor doesn't get upgraded. They do get Quiesence but it's really just torpor without the snare component and can't really keep up.

In PoP they mostly do away with the "everything above level 52 will summon" thing and it goes back to mostly being named NPCs and a few others. So kite classes are much more free to solo in more places.

Speaking to what's killable vs not, pretty much anything worth raiding on P99 today is incredibly weak by comparison (as you would expect). Gore/Sev/Tal/Fay are trio-able in Luclin by anyone with halfway decent gear (bard resists trivialize them). Raid-geared characters can trio Trakanon and Yelinak in Luclin. PoP makes it even worse. On TAKP Sev has been soloed by a bard, Gore has been soloed by a ranger. Even Trakanon has been soloed by a druid. Just last night we 1-grouped the ring10 war. I'm not aware of knights soloing Kunark dragons on TAKP but it sure sounds possible.

Three wizards and a bard quadding at tables is better exp than any charm group can muster in POP.

You're wrong.
