Idk why I’m going to say this... but one constructive option to help the game/culture (maybe not a problem idk) is upping the grouped xp bonuses. It’s crazy how good solo exp is compared to grouped.

Having the majority of players soloing during the classic era isn’t classic. The experience is just too good haha (guilty!)

Idk I’m just social (it’s a f’ing mmo) and hate that the game disincentivizes adding more groupmates. Like some have stated the game is a huge time sink and it’s hard not to consider maximizing xp/time invested. It would be an easy tweak to smooth that calculation over.

Might blow the original poster's mind but not all of us were 13 year old kiddies when EQ was new. Nobody ever cared if I couldn't keep up with kids who could be on all day. I made do. He should be able to make do, too.

OP, there's a reason that this server was legally protected by Daybreak games. The very specific aim to recreate classic EverQuest, with its boons and its flaws, is something p99 specializes in and DBG clearly had no interest in recreating. Which means if you play on p99 you have to take that as part of the experience.

Trust me, when Manastones were dropping people took to the forums to bitch about the drop rates (sometimes not seeing one drop for over a day), but it made no difference. Without SOLID evidence that the drop rate was higher than it was, it stayed the way it was until the item stopped dropping.

Rogean and company do not make things easier on the players just for the sake of doing so, and only stray outside what is truly classic if exploits are discovered (This statement is subjective as even longtime veterans have complaints about some of the changes made, but in general that's the idea).

Would I have loved to start a paladin in classic and not have the 40% exp penalty? Sure! But I knew that wouldn't be an option till Velious so that's how long I'm waiting. The good news is you know ahead of time when things are going to happen so you can plan accordingly.

Sorry to double-post, but my above points help underline the awe that the "haves" inspire. A level 50 paladin before Kunark released? Awesome. My guild clerics showing off by Manastone'ing themselves into purple HP as we try to recover from a wipe? Awesome. Other damn shamans showing off those red breastplates while I was wearing a Bloodstained Tunic? Awesome.

It's the people that conquer the difficulty through time, dedication, and/or poopsocking that get to bask in the envy of us have-not's, and that's part of the game. It's why I was so stoked when I finally won my first Circlet of Shadow [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
