As far as Skyfire AE groups, I never saw any on live either.. and that's most likely due to inability to stun. By all means look up classic data and support your argument if you believe this is incorrect.

Just because you say something is a p99-specific feature doesn't mean it's true. :P

This thread had some discussion. If you believe these people are in error, discuss there.

I was just kinda wondering why the guardian wurms outside VP are listed as immune to stuns?

If it's a racial thing, why would anyone bother to mention it just on the lvl 60 wurms and not on the lower lvl normal ones?

I searched some more last night after i posted, i found 1 post listed under a google search that had some info about all giant sized creatures being immune to stuns but i couldn't click it because my anti-virus flagged the link as malicious. It didn't state wurms under it, but I could see how they would be flagged as "giant sized"

Negative.

On live the proper casting mechanisms were not implimented until deep into velious. Nothing should cast ice comet right now. At most you used to get force shock and crap like that.

On live AE groups in seb were never a problem because at most with jboot you were hit about 10 times.

P99's caster mechanics are f*cked on both counts though.

the above post is entirely as i remember it. "smart" casting was a later addition, when they changed caster mob AI

they used to try and root and use random other nukes instead all the time

...Why should you ever get hit? Just pull using eye of zomm or coh with a dot/pet or something.

Yup. Zoned into Chardok. Got 1 hit by a zone in mob casting ice comet. Was one of the last times I logged in. Classic would be fun, custom classic not so much.

If this server went to luclin maybe. Cleric epic doesn't involve skyfire here.

Ultra sadface.

I honestly had no idea this was a bug. I never heard of it on Live, but I'd never played any of the classes needed to AoE. I'd never heard of AoE groups ANYWHERE before I came to P99.

Am I digging the hole deeper?

Hrmm, you don't need to give the Pearlescent Shards to Zordak in Sol B? I thought the change from classic -> late velious? epic changes was you could spawn it on your own in Skyfire instead of having it be a timer bitch confliction with naggy in Sol B.
