I have proof of partials happening. Sorry if the photoshop is a little crude.

Northwest has decent fire resist. The time i fought him after this time he whipped my ass because i got partials on every single nuke. I didnt take pictures of that one [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Edit : Draught of fire at lvl 52 lands for 430 for me tops. Check out the near half partials goin on there.

Double edit : he was also red to me. figured id add that since levels seem to matter. Might not of resisted partials if he was even to me at the time with same stats.

No tears about windstrikers yet or not enough poopsocking yet to slay EoV?

The only thing needed to be done to tstaffs is making it more rare, the proc is a equalizer, helps underdogs fucking up some serious neckbeards with 15 chins.

You fucks should be happy there's no ranger with the windstriker bow + 50% clicky haste cloak + 900 DD proc weapons.

If you newbs didnt know tstaff would change things up in kunark you suck at everquest. I made a monk for one reason, tstaff, i put all my points into dex for one reason, tstaff. This is the advantage of having played the game before.

If you think everyone short of Mellowyellow didn't know this before the server was created, you're kiddin yourself. Wow, you had the foresight to pump dex, did you figure this out while wearing your mensa windbreaker? Clearly such mental prowess at the character select screen should be awarded an "I win" button.

In kunark-velious, the potential of the t-staff wasn't known by most, and how to farm them was almost entirely a mystery. Like other things that were nerfed, tstaff gave a serious advantage that completely imbalanced a class in pvp akin to melee being able to insta dispel all your buffs (egg shaped pumice). Had they been as prevalent on live pvp servers as they are today, they'd have been nerfed.

Whether anything would even be done about it even if we all agreed is anyones guess. I think the simplest solution would be to put the spell in line with all other spell damage and effects and to shorten the duration in pvp. Every other spell lasts a fraction of its time in pvp as it does in pve, so why not this proc thats already unresistable?

Mad ramblings of a wizard who got use to 1 shotting melees for the past 12 months, and when finally melees start gainging some power (which they knew was gonna happen) they cry.

Move along sir, or roll monk/ranger and get your weapon ready son.
