Then there is an error in the games mechanics, as I distinctly recall getting XP from a few greens throughout my time here.

Maybe we can implement the bazaar trader code in EC too. That way ppl can set up afk traders around shady.

That's a far cry from what op was saying. That's like saying "Oh you thought target rings made click targeting simpler? How about we put cats on the moon.

I think it was a pointless thing to remove tbh; as long as we're using these updated ui the game will never feel classic.

You could turn off certain text.

But god damn. Turn off Vent, Turn off TS, Turn off Skype. Get 1 chat box.

Now let's race to a dragon and get some FTEs and coordinate some heals and CC during the fight. Like classic was meant to be played.

gonna laugh when this gets reenabled with a log parser

even a single text box is fixable with an overlay

I fucking HATE voice chat with classic eq, kills my immersion. Always impressed me that MS was still raiding end game EQ 10 years later using only guild chat, on complex scripted encounters, but yet here a simple Talendor fight is micromanaged with TS.

Is it really that impressive? THey've had how long to learn them? Probably memorized.

I was the raid leader in the guild heartbrand refers to. Until about 2012-13, Vent wasn't mandatory. We had Vent during that time but it was mostly used for bullshitting. The raids were also ridiculously more complex than classic EQ. However, one of the big reasons I got away with not using vent or even going over what we were doing in each event is because I wrote up how each event went that could be read in about 2-3 min so people knew WTF was up.

So we would just point apps and tards to our guild's wiki site, and they would know what was going on for the raid and then any raid directions that had to happen on the fly would be typed out by myself or were hotkeys. I probably had 40-50 raid hotkeys of things that I would have to regularly say, and didn't feel like typing. "Blow up red mushrooms!" For example.

Almost all of the raid wiki guides from UF, HoT and VoA were written by myself or another Druid officer at the time. This guide was good fun to write (although I got a bit too verbose with it). That raid was so very awesome. Even with all it's bugs. Atleast until you beat it a few times, then the 2 hour scripted event could die in a fire.

Voice chat I enjoy for Just talking/bullshitting. But for raids, I definitely prefer text. EQ lend itself to that pretty well too. Early on we only had guild chat / shout / OOC / auction to filter chat into. And raids were simple then. Raids got more complex, raid window is added as well as raid chat. Also chat channels come into being.

Everything, even in modern EQ, can be done easily without voice chat. Would be fun if All Vent and TS servers went down and we got a server repop. Just to see how confused people get.
