Is there any way we could get even a small amount of testing for these things? I mean things like 'I never miss in combat' and 'sit aggro is more than tash' aren't exactly difficult to find. If the staff whipped up some toons and played on a test server for 30 minutes before releasing a patch this kind of stuff would come out immediately.

i'd be willing to play on an official P99 Test server.

Why fix something that is not broken just for the sake of classicness. Are you going to go back to the meditate in your spellbook too ? or force people to play on 10go hard drive ?

The aggro from sitting is still broke.

I damage mob with bow for pull, casters are sitting in camp, but still get
aggro even though they have not cast anything.
If i bring mob to close it bee lines for them (and im talking 10 feet close).
Simple spells, (slow/snare/heal) are still gaining aggro after mob has been beat
down to 80 percent.

Is sit aggro accumlating or what?
Example, I pull mob, dps down to 90 percent of its health, cleric who was sitting
stand cast heal (small heal), gains aggro immediately. This is at low lvl mind you but
still. As a warrior, with this patch, it has made the game almost unplayable.

Sit aggro is classic, but what we have here is not.

dude, my cle always got almost instant aggro if i healed while in combat. that is why i did not heal while mob engaged unless the players life was in danger. if not, would heal after the fight. I can not tell if now there's far much worse, as i haven't played my cle since the new patch, but players need to learn the tricks of their trade or get owned.

In classic I never had issues healing mid-fight in a typical single-group grinding situation, unless I dropped a big heal like Superior or Complete very early on. Since I used to play a game of "how low can the warrior get before CHeal lands", I'd typically throw on Celestial if I needed to buy some time after a pull, and that one was almost no threat at all.

If this was your experience, you were grouping with some woefully incompetent tanks.

Cause that's pretty much the point of the server.
