Help non soloable classes

[Torrinn]

Boxing would fix this easily. Classes that have a tough time soloing could box whatever class is most complimentary to the one they are having a hard time with and a better time will be had by all.

And before anyone gets all bent out of shape, I'm not suggesting allowing boxing while grouped or letting guys like Sam Deathwalker play on the server, just allowing it for those who can't find groups for whatever reason but still want to play the class of their choice.

i main a pure melee, and i play at the most mysterious times of night. since lvl 3 i have NEVER had a problem finding a group. I am level 30. If I can grind from 2 am to 9 am CST in solid groups, from crushbone to oasis to unrest to mm to sola, so can you! in fact, i havn't grinded exp without a group since lvl 3. ONCE. when i don't have a group (usually only for 30 or so minutes because I am so leet) I run around and check my friends list.. because this is a social game, and that's how you find the exp! with the good players, the fun players!

boxing will NOT fix the problem. it will just create a scenario in which melees like me would be UNABLE to find clerics ect with half a brain! we'd jsut end up having to roll cleric or shaman boxes! and then i'd never have a awesome group of REAL PEOPLE again!

if you can't find a group because you can't stay on long enough ect, that's your problem. you can solo and do quests and shop for gear but NOT GROUP. oh well! WELCOME TO EVERQUEST.

3 days it will be 2 weeks, had no problem finding or STARTING groups in the past near 2 weeks, no twink.

Changing the game in any way to "accomodate" new players would ruin the already easy leveling scheme and if you went the route of 2 boxing this server would become PEQ 2.0.

As Karsten said, proactive thinking is helpful, playing at the correct times the population your level is playing, and if you can't do either... Roll a goddamn pure caster solo your way to 50 and then twink your raid warrior.

Stop beating the dead horse.

I hate to agree with Karsten but its how it was in classic. Less QQ and more PEW PEW

As was already pointed out numerous times, this server is not even close to what EQ classic was. The entire thing that made EQ into the game we all remember was the community. Without a larger player base you will never have that true EQ classic feel. Trivial changes to bind wound or whatnot don't detract from the classic experience at all, but a low population does.

Although 2 boxing would solve alot of issues, I did not bring it up in any of my posts because for whatever reason it was already decided that 2 boxing will not be allowed. Instead it is up to the players and developers to find ways to keep new players playing so that we can eventually reach the EQ classic game that everyone desires, because we certainly aren't anywhere close to that yet.

Start that 2 boxing BS and half your community will be gone, including myself and 25 other's that ive brought over, say goodbye to those donations to keep it up and running if you do.

That's such a hilarious trend in every single discussion where 2-boxing is brought up.

Pro-boxing arguments: Will help many players, will create environment closer to classic, provides more even playing field for certain classes, facilitates off-peak play.

Anti-boxing arguments: I don't like it, me and my friends will quit, you won't get donations, I'll take my ball and go home.

People just don't understand that a) boxing would be optional, and b) humanity progressed past the middle ages by becoming less selfish, intolerant and narrow-minded.

As long as this server caters primarily to the egocentric and uncompassionate players, they'll make up the majority and they will determine the atmosphere of the server.

I would like 2 boxing as well, but it is really unneeded as the population is higher then its ever been. Only thing it would really do is help melee do things on there own.

Two boxing will never happen. Stop the bickering Widan. If your too lazy to find a group I suggest re rolling. Otherwise...
