Also that is SK.

Not deep in perma or chardok. But Jibartik makes a fair point most druids didn't know about perma or chardok. Let alone have practice and gear for those places.

But those that did where truly great and ate a lot of deaths and it wasn't as ez as here where basically u can buy some bug carpaces/ chitins/ pants, and a shield and go to town. With an 80% plus success rate lol.

I don't buy that argument Jibartik. Wanna know why? Because our soft hand held asses didn't figure any of this shit out. The real paying players did back then the hard way. They had 10x more skill than any of us. "Live players just weren't doing it right" is a BS argument. They are the ones that paved the way for what we do here. Thousands and thousands of brains is better than a few thousands +some time added. We just use recycled cheese sauce. We didn't pioneer the recipe.

Yeah. It's that cheep movie theater queso cheese and cardboard nachos. It's great. Don't get me wrong I want starwars 27 in the theatre.

But I was there when queso was first invented and accepted. It was bad ass.

Charming in p99 is absolutely retarded bullshit and if you think it's "fine" classic, or appropriately challenging.

We probably can't be close intimate friends irl. Lol.

+1

I always think it's surreal when people just try to convince themselves that players 20 years ago were bad. It was the other way around. You didn't just join a group and go AFK. Mother fuckers would straight up kick your ass out, and even if you joined a group and didn't go AFK, people would invite other players who had better gear than you (especially if you were a melee) or invite other players who were flat out better than you are.

Being a good puller was a huge fucking deal in a version of the game where pull stealing was completely legal and common practice. A good puller meant the difference between having unlimited mobs and not having enough mobs. On P99 over 75% of melees are too pussified and scared to pull.

Real Everquest had millions of people playing it and competing against each other. You ended up with the best players at the top.

P99 = a bunch of low functioning people who likely only play this game because it's F2P and literally the least ambitious and skilled players of anyone I've ever met in an online gaming community.

Like on TLP legit 99% of the people I meet play OverWatch, Apex Legends, Valheim, League of Legends, and even The Burning Crusade etc. I doubt very seriously any of these P99 boomers could play any of those games due to the speed and mechanical skill involved.

starkind you and I meditate on the same wavelength that only .01% of the earth has discovered.

if you resonate hard enough you'll see where I am coming from.

What we're feeling on p99 is tantamount to what any country feels before it collapses, the proletariat have become too bourgeois.

dont +1 that, that was a missunderstasnding of my point.

I wasnt saying that live players are bad, Im saying our wiki is so perfect that they use it.

And that wiki makes the average player here, way to good, way better than they have been in 20 years, and way better than they would be in another 20.

So you see tons of chanters doing what you would only see a few, had the knowledge remained as secret as all the other knowledge that keeps the top players/guilds on top.
