Stuff about exploits

I believe Conquest ate a ban on Lanys on live for exploiting the Z axis. Something about warders and a bridge.

The butcher shop down the road from me sells 3/16" thick cut bacon. We put a pork rub on it and grilled it over charcoal. It was pretty amazing.

Well also remember people didn't have 4 years to farm kunark + whatever on live.

Velious came out the same year - just a little over 6 months later.

IIRC most servers didn't even have people farming VP regularly, much less Trakanon and years of epics

Yeah, check the old Legacy of Steel updates. One of the top guilds of classic EQ and they had 2 Donal's BPs and the majority of their members didn't even have epics.

Or as posted in the Velious beta chat...

Exploiting Geometry/LoS for Tanks/Melee. Is this strategy allowed, where your melee or tanks can hit a raid mob though they don't have true LoS on said mob, which allows them to avoid all LoS based AEs?

No. If you're caught doing this it's a good way to get players/guilds banned/suspended. We were warned not to do this even on the beta server, so it's something the GMs take seriously.
