I'm going to play just to see how good/bad the pathing is in Unrest by comparison.

The client is really bad. Mouse look issues need to be addressed. PvP quakes? Lame.

Cooling big time on this project.

EQ PvP is bad. But as long as it's scarce, like 5% on quake as mentioned, I think it could add an interesting layer to things. For example rangers are pretty boss in PvP in classic era and it'd be a reason to have them around other than speedbump. Pretty spicy.

Yeah I'm scared of EQ PVP. No one is scared, it's just not fun and a terrible idea. They've went back and forth on hybrid/race penalties. Heard rumblings of some petty dev control issues. I'll play just not all-in as I was previously.

No monk AC nerf is a deal-breaker for me. This overpowered class definitely needs a nerf. It doesn't make sense lore wise for monks to have the same mitigation as a plate wearing class. From a lore perspective, they are practically naked. They should have high avoidance but little to no mitigation. They are DPS class, not a tanking class.

It makes sense for decent mitigation - monks ‘roll with the punches’ and we’ve all seen martial arts demos of some geezer getting booted in the nads.

That said, yeah, it isn’t great game design. Vanilla had monks encouraged to live a life shunning material possessions, but kunark gave them a huge relative improvement of weapons (from the second worst tier to best) and then velious just gave them top toer armour.

Imo monks needed a different line of progression that continued the theme of rejecting possessions (instead of wearing skin suits, wtf).

I think it's good that not everyone wants to play Quarm. It's not like you have to. I think the hostility comes from the people who are prone to not wanting to fall behind other players, and the idea of starting a fresh server again scares people who have invested so much time in P99.

If you don't like the idea if Quarm, stay on P99 and farm pixels. For the rest of the people tired of the P99 scene, Quarm is welcomed, even with its flaws. And claws. I miss my beastlord.

It's objectively a shitbox if ShowEQ is allowed and the norm.

I wish you all the best.
