What they're trying to do like others have said is do the very best they can to emulate the game like it was in classic prekunark until they "release" the kunark expansion. There are things yes are not like classic like for example maps. It's not something they can just enable/disable, but I would have full faith that if the capability was there to remove maps for example, they would disable the map functionality in a heartbeat. Also your example of staring at your spellbook is probably the same as maps. If they were able to figure out how to revert that back to classic to force you to stare at your spellbook, I have complete faith that the devs would have done it.

You're saying that there's no good reason why it can't be implemented right now, but what everyone else is saying is that the good reason is that breeze wasn't introduced until Kunark, hence it's not part of classic prekunark everquest, and since it's a spell and something that's easy hold back until the "appropriate time" according to how the game originally progressed back before Kunark was released they are holding it back until kunark's release. It wouldn't be true to classic if they introduced it now, and it would start to crumble the very foundation of what doing everything in their power to stay true to classic prekunark eq means.

If they make an exception for breeze, then it no longer becomes truly classic within the dev's power, and then people will start leaving this server because they will have started to lose faith in the devs staying as true as is within their power.

Nice post. This is where I say "What he said."

You don't gotta take time out of your day to answer a dumb question rudely! Please die, thx.
you're problem is that you just don't like the answer you are getting.

in your OP you cited how there are some kunark era spells in game like wiz snare that shouldn't be, so why not put breeze in.

when it was pointed out that you are wrong about this, you just ignored it and went on with your next point.

then you said that it wasn't too big of a deal for chanters to get breeze earlier, and that until 29 you were useless and couldn't find grps.

when it was pointed out that it is a big deal for chanters to get it earlier, and that chanters aren't useless until 29 you again refused to acknowledge how flawed your thinking is.

bottom line is this is a classic server...the devs do their best to keep it that way. are there some non-classic elements? yes. but not by choice.

when it comes to spells i am unaware of a SINGLE non-classic spell in game...if there is an exception then i will listen to you any further on the topic.

if not, you have your answer...choose to whine about it or accept it now.

*cough http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=10603 cough*

But oh wait, even though THAT is classic, it's not how they want it on this server.

Didn't want to click on the link?
All it's about is, pet classes needed to do 50% damage to a mob to get full experience for it, if not, the pet took half. That's how it has always been, but now I'm told they don't want to put it in, because they choose not to.

They like to pick and CHOOSE what they want for classic, not what actually is classic.

I see what you are saying about people leaving. That would be bad, but I also don't think there's anything wrong with implementing those low level spells. I suppose it's a difference of opinion. It wouldn't be truly classic. But I thought the devs weren't trying to make everything classic, not sure if that's a wrong assumption. Anyway, I suppose this thread should die.

OP, breeze as well as lots of other spells like lower level cleric rez's would be nice. But we gotta suck it up and play like it's 1999 as best the devs can do. I liked your "please die" comment haha; good comeback to that troll who found it necessary to berate you for your question and opinion.

It isn't exactly classic, but it is as close as you will get. I say wait till Kunark. No one is useless...
