This.

Necros DoTing on raids is far less useful than them twitching clerics or wizards.

I am excited about changes made for necros in PvP. Full heal on lifetap still needs to happen but other than that splurt and pyrocur will now hit for at least 1-2 ticks before being dispelled lol. As far as qvox and Levant go, meh was good while it lasted...makes room for one more dot or shadow step for PvP.

Pras staff for all their hard work

Did the changes to rogue hide make it into this patch as well? I thought I remembered that a reversion to the old way hide worked was planned for the next patch

This is a fantasy. It's possible that too many mobs see invis, but I will never believe that there were different "levels" of see invis until Shoud of Stealth was added. Yes, I play a rogue here and did so also for many years on live. If any changes are needed on this front, it is to 1) reduce the % chance that a mob will spawn with the innate ability to see invis, and 2) add the "You suspect that this creature can see you" message that informed a rogue that a see-invis mob is conning indifferent due to faction or sneak. (Maybe this happened for more than just rogues?) I don't recall when this was added - it could be beyond our timeline.

Like I needed another reason to hate my necro...
Levant and Quivering Veil of Xarn only at night!?!?!?!?!
Don't remember this.

I definitely remember this. sorry, Necros.

Excellent patch!

Curious what evidence was used for lowering the Make Poison cap to 200. I'm not finding any threads on this in the bugs forum.
.
Kanras: Reduced Make Poison skill cap to 200.

Too bad you didn't get them set up before the nerf. What is the new price now?


I currently have ZERO Full Cleric Epic MQ(s) ready to go.
I currently have ZERO Heart of Ragefire MQ(s) ready to go.

oh I got setup with a bunch of robes and MQ parts. I have a heart but I think i'll only sell full MQs for the time being. as for the pricing adjustment... was going to talk to some people and work on a good figure.

This is exactly how necros played until Luclin when raid mobs weren't as resisty and the 9/2/2002 patch that allowed DoT stacking on mobs.

Non-lifetap resists in Kunark/Velious always sucked for necros as far as I remember, but lifetaps almost always worked save for intentially full MR mobs. Was a lot of QQ on the old eqnecro forums from Brownivy and whoever Trinity's GL was at the time. Raiding as a necro wasn't really that fun until we could do 14 hojillion damage to emp ssra from 27 funeral pyres over that 30 minute fight. There's a reason I didn't roll a necro here but god were they fun after that patch.

Sounds like this information may have been leaked...
