Custom PVP thoughts and potential problems.

[Melveny]

My 2 cent.

I am not against classic only, but I am also not against slight custom alterations for the better of the server and better for pvp.

A lot of you need to understand, it may not be classic but certain changes were made on live to fix GAME BREAKING flaws that effect pvp. Being able to charm or fear players was removed for good reason, classic yes, game breaking yes, good for pvp no. Pets zoneing is huge, they drop here so IDK how you people are dieing to any mage at all, not to mention they cant see debuffs on pets to know when to dispell, game breaking. Bards with the charm drop of pets, classic yes, game breaking and not good for pvp yes.

Anyway, Rogean and Null are not here to make a shitty server that people wont enjoy. It will have the classic content we ALL enjoy, with slight pvp modifications to make the pvp experience enjoyable no matter the class.

Also please keep in mind, the above game breaking references are not things i am saying should be in game or will be in game. I am just providing examples, keep the trolling to the minimum.

Not familar with that name, but good times.

Handle was GODspeed, I played for [im12], [M], GT prior to eq being released, Jingwu later. For about a few months after EQ release the top competitive scene died as everyone rolled on the Cazic Thule server.

Fun fact, Jingwu which started in the 2nd coming of TF (about 6 months after eq release) was led and consisted of 5 eq devs. (bungle (Joe Russo), suntzu (Thomas Q), Khalid (Lawrence poe), and 2 other guys i forget...)

Mike Morhaime who went on to lead LoS as Ariel on nameless also played TF, with the handle Se7en, he was a badass medic. He's kind of a big dawg now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That's pretty awesome. I remember GODspeed. Do you remember Type O-? He's a RL friend and will be playing on the PVP server.

I didn't get into the clan scene until later. I was in APr and MP. MC is the guy who got us into EQ.

Good post Melveny, I agree.

The only people argueing for "plz make me immune to all magic after 100 MR" are the random PK's who are not interested in Everquest at all, besides the fact it makes a grand theater to grief in due to corpse runs, xp loss, etc.

Nice old school teams, i want to say you played a scout or medic? but my memory is hazy. Ya I remember MC and Type-O - he was old school sniper as well. Good memories about original TF all around.

Whatever the devs make I'm sure it will be great

I honestly can't even begin to express how uninformed and out-right stupid this post is. Really... think a little bit before you post please.

I was a "jack of all trades" guy. I played about every position out there both O and D.

Melv i like what u said

Im all about tweaking the game to make it more balanced.

But the resist system needs a look at. And trust me i plan on rolling a caster

But you people gotta realize this game is too "caster friendly"

1) Overpowered channeling
2) levitate exploits
3) shadowstep
4) Nerfed resists

If your going to nerf resists to the point where melees can get cced u have to do something else ot make it more fair

nerf channeling? i duno but christ... game will NOT be fun
