Mages are up shit’s creek I guess

[NeilYo]

i love how you complain about research when the actual problem is that its currently impossible to research any pet past 34

[Thievery]

I skimmed this thread, but lets put this into some perspective for the mages.

At 34 your nuke does the same damage as a wizard's for 15 more mana cost. And at worst you still have a level 20 pet.

Yeah dang those mages who can chain summon pets with cheap reagents bought from a vendor. Enabling them to kill high end content with no risk in classic.

at first i kinda had beef with mages because they were so specifically abused on blue classic, but at this point cmon at least unbreak their research

Here's the point though. As referenced back a few pages, when Magicians first discovered that their research skill was broken involving level 24+ pets (and by broken, I mean, you couldn't even craft pets with the proper materials), Verant responded within 24 hours by doing two things.

1) Research was patched and repaired to work as intended.
2) At most spell levels, 2 pets were added at each tier from vendors, and in the cases where this wasn't the route they chose, 1 pet was added instead.

This isn't a matter of it being an intended fix triggered by a point in time. It was an issue of something being broken for a class and the matter was hotfixed as a result after a review. For anyone actually playing back in 1999-2000, you will recall that Bards had their songs broken more often than not after EVERY freakin' update. Bards had a hard time. And when Verant realized that something was broken with them from player input, a fix went in within a day.

This isn't speculation, and it isn't an emotional appeal. It's the absolute facts of the matter, and it's facts that this server staff has chosen to ignore. I'm just honestly curious why they've chosen to bury their heads in the sand over this and hope it will go away.

It says we're here to play an unfinished, unbalanced game. If you're playing p99, that's what you signed up for.

Level 29 research materials are not dropping. Nobody has found any. Please fix.
