LoY doesn't have enough content to warrant its own 3 month block. There's like zero raids that I can remember? Only a handful of new zones. I don't have any issues with it bundling with PoP. GoD/OoW bundle is the worst though.

LoY has the captain Raid event in Hate's Fury - http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/npc.html?id=13861

What makes the most sense:

PoP/LoY together
LDoN/GoD together
OoW

GoD needs to be pushed 3 months ahead and bundled with LDoN. LDoN gives casuals stuff to do and GoD gives hardcores.

Dald, how are you such an encyclopedia of EQ?

[Daldaen]

Don't discount the Vander's Bane. That was the only reason people did that event.

Dual wield that and Mace of the Ancients from PoP EP God Element quest, proc two different summoned pets. Add in the LDON Guk Raid aug for another proc. So many pets $$$

at some point they lowered the number of pets bards could make through their AA's, cuz 5 bards would fuck your raids positioning / FPS up [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Those stupid gargoyles. Song of Stone I think was the AA? Plus there was some doppelgänger AA they got much later iirc.

Pet walling was such a hilarious tactic until after VoA. You could damn near stall out a mob without heavy AEs for half an hour if you needed By just throwing pets into it.

I recall one or two Fumeraks where we lost all our pets around 10% and we just threw pets at it until warriors were rezzed and ready to engage again.

[derpcake]

Yea, song of stone. If I summoned the pets while circling a mob, it would be mostly surrounded by the gimpest pets ever [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I still think the comedy factor of the druid pet is best though. The dr00id community cried so hard to get a pet .. so they get one.

Much like the community complained and complained, "they wanted a zone open to everyone where dragons roam", so they got Skyfire.

Early EQ devs were cruel.

Crypt of Nadox was absolutely awesome for bard AE kiting or war earthshaking though, you could easily do 2 pulls of 120 mobs each and have them down just in time for respawn of the first set.

Pras LoY, I guess!

2.5 weeks until PoP/LoY drop.

The tears in Plane of Storm are looking to be at peak levels days 1-14.
