P99 is a custom easy mode server

There's lots of bad legends server loot available, it doesn't all have to be guises.

It doesn't matter if the majority of archived allahkazam or eq castersrealm agrees with us tho. Or if we post evidence.


All it takes is one opinion to the contrary on 2002 allahkazam and a half assed showeq cloning of EQmac missing tons of data to "prove" a community of OG EQ addicts who where there in 1999 "wrong" on basis of "feels for how dragons in NToV" should be like and "fairness".

The EQ i remember was nothing like the p99 of now mostly tho because those still playing play in a specifically biased way (that leads to more unclassic changes) than the majority who played classicly.

Such exaggerations up in here about "single zam post waaaah". That is hardly ever the case except for low barrier things like proving an item existed at a certain point in time.

Raid rules aside the game is legit classic, and obviously working towards constant improvement

I can garantee if you have to strafe run to channel root on a wizard u will have a lot more fun because i did that on live

same with putting ur cleric and chanter in a corner -- there are two components to channeling that are really screwed up on emu the push element and the hitdmg element

it should be much harder in both cases to get casts off

fighting more than 3 mobs as a caster should be very dangerous unless ur a lvl 60 wizard with shields up standing in a corner casting AoE in sola event then rly dangerous in planar gear but doable

just

also hving to use lvl 39 aoes in this instance because u will not be able to channel anything longer than 3-4 seconds

In general Loramin is correct that as an adult 'responsiveness is respect'. Regardless of medium.

Rygar I get what you are saying that devs don't owe us any explanations and I have made similar case elsewhere, in particular with regard to new server plans. There is an exception in that the devs want this server to be as accurate as possible and asked for feeback/contributions to make it more accurate. OP obliged re: channeling and it's been some time since he had gotten word back. OP reached the point of frustration and wrote this post.

Nilbog entered this RnF thread and thanked OP. Also said OP would get credit if the change ends up made with any of OPs contributions. OP hasn't responded yet.

Nilbog has shown respect. It's up to OP if that is adequate after no communication for quite some time on the matter.

Whether the response should take as long as it has seems like something the players will decide for themselves is ok or not. Rygar doesn't see an issue with the delay on feedback and Loramin does see an issue. Other adults can decide for themself.

Fin.

Stop assuming conclusions and making these comparisons to emailing friends or whatever. If anything nilbog let the community know "possible channelling changes are on the radar". He doesn't need to tell all the status updates or if he's focusing on some other low hanging fruit or whatever.

You are assuming he 'isn't interested in continuing the conversation' when maybe he doesn't want to be pestered by folks or cry babies, or maybe has a policy of just contributing to the bug report rather than updating on status. I'm sure there's hundreds of other reasons, no clue why the conclusion is "well... devs think channeling is fine since he didn't say anything in 2 years. Must hate classic."

I want to be very clear: I'm literally not talking about Nilbog or his motivations here. I'm talking about Azxten.

Nilbog could have any number of reasons not to respond to Azxten, and I've expressed zero judgements about those reasons. What I said, and continue to believe, is that whatever his reasons for not responding, it's a simple fact that Nilbog didn't for two years ... and after two years of no response, I believe it's reasonable for Azxten (or anyone else) to feel a conversation has ended.

Casters soloing Tserrina to farm a robe is easy mode and trivializes the content.

After the channeling nerf it will finally be a proper experience. A monk can stand in front of her and auto attack her until she's dead. Now we're fully immersed in Velious.

Pretty sure any channeling nerf, if it ever happens, will only apply to players. NPCs would continue to have their overpowered channeling skill.
