I did figure out how to hack the client to show a max resist of 255. So that is getting capped.

in a classic resist system, you have to rely on dispels and resist debuffs to pvp effectively, fights become more drawn out and the better player will win a majority of the time

in the current resist system, press wildfire until someone dies

Ya know that hurts real bad right

Best thing for Haynar is to ignore what people think they want and give them classic (proven goodness, enough to attract all the people around to this project).

A good analogy is sometimes a "slow" child will want to play with something sharp, the child may even scream for it and beg for it. But we both know he's just gonna poke his eyes out with it and cry even more, irreparable damage done aside.

Tell me more about this deep strategy of mashing "1" on fully buffed targets. I'm always looking to learn more [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

You know all those rains that are casted that 1 shot you? You know that's extremely stupid? I truly didn't enjoy it, even if it did guarantee me holdings of the best raw plat farm in the game/p99 (and at a 3:1 red to blue plat value, I made some serious lewts). Rains were some of the MOST resisted spells on live.

Why on earth would someone try to get their class "nerfed" in pvp? Maybe having an actual classic EQ pvp server is more important than another Trak BP.

Then again for some people it was a priority to buff the epic pet before fixing the practically lure based 51+ earth pet root. Go figure.

PVP code gives pets the casting level of their owners. WTF?

They don't 1-shot you when you move out of them before they have time to tick more than once. If you can't move because you're rooted, you try to defensively dispel before the rain lands.

But nah, way more "strategy" involved in just standing there slackjawed while fully resisting every wave because classic, right?

What you mean to say is: "having an actual classic EQ pvp server is more important to Nirgon than a system which doesn't render every spell that isn't a lure or unresistable useless".

they aren't useless when the target is malo'd, tashed, etc.

also not everyone has access to top end resist gear, believe it or not; i think i only had like 60 cold resist unbuffed on my monk for over a year until i was able to afford diamond rings, mask, etc., and i think it should be actually rewarding to invest enough playtime necessary to get aforementioned top end resist gear; right now i can spend 40+ days /played leveling and gearing out a melee in raid gear so that i can... partial 300 damage from a sunstrike while having low MR, PR, DR, HP, strength, stamina, dexterity, agility?? lol???

This is also a necro buff in disguise.

Would love to play in Nirgons Rallos 100% Classic Item Loot Emporium Playground if it existed
