That might be true
However I don't see why they would impliment different versions of the same formula like that. It might be well worth checking into seeing as we don't have much else to work from. Why not figure out the demo mechanics something that is available and based off something similiar to what we know as classic eq melee mechanics. I feel it ashame to just disregard it when we can use it impliment it and see where that formula puts us at level 5,10, 20 etc It might just be that simple | ||

I have the original discs for Vanilla, Kunark, and Velious (and all the way through GoD). If there's anything I can do to help let me know.

But what i remember is you would start the fight, and after 1 or two swings it would pause the combat and say something like "whoa that skelly is kicking your ass, maybe you should try nuking him" well thats not what they said but its close. And so you would nuke it, bam, and it would die. | |||

I have the orig cd myself somewhere it would take me a day to locate it. Nice find Dolalin! It's great to see all this info and ideas coming together.
Criticism to these ideas is good as long as its followed by proof of why it wouldn't work not just memory. After all it's going to take a good amount of pooled idea's and criticism to get us on the right path and eliminate the road that leads us to a dead end. Summit your request to help hasn't been disregarded its exciting to see so many people taking interest in helping out as far as implementing the help into something we are at a standstill until we can get some more ideas and information into this forum to point us into a solid direction. Then we can begin to share the formulas for everyone to review and poke at hopefully the more experienced eyes on it the better. As to if the Devs would want that we don't know... Noone has responded to this post yet to guide us. I had no idea this post would take off with such great minds and ideas putting the effort in, really guys kudos for showing the initiative to fix the melees. All of the sources of info flooding in and ideas shows great prospects for a resolution being discovered quicker than anticipated. As for the beta 4 cds I'm unfamiliar with them or eq beta however would it be easy to pull the info from them? Can you even play it without needing to log in? That could be valuable. Also, If a dev is reading this could you please please please chime in and shed some light on what we are trying to do here? Thanks again to everyone for donating their time into research and posting some great ideas. | ||

If anyone wants the Beta 4 CD image, I'll dig it up and ISO it. Hoping it might be useful for figuring out the formulas. Is there a tool that would let you dig into the code and see the original combat formulas? | |||
