What are the list of things that were in classic but not in P99?

Training here just isn't easy enough, and it should be. EQ trains were baller.

You know I thought something was wrong when they wouldn't give up...
There's no way we woulda made it across the Great Wastes for example if mobs never gave up the chase.

I really wish they would fix this.

That's what made EQ such a fun and terrifying game to play, and why Snare was a much more sought after ability, not (only) the overcharged run speed we hopefully still don't have to deal with after the patch.

My findings on this phenomena were:

-it did exist
-it was in Kunark zones. Not prekunark. (unsure of Velious, but I don't recall it happening)
-personal beliefs: it had to do with the pathing of Kunark zones on live. To this day, strange pathing happens outdoors.

I actually haven't tried this on P99, but my favorite old school feature was the ability to /consent someone, and they could loot your corpse. I used to do that to transfer items from 1 character to another.

This was removed in the summer of 99 due to scammers stealing peoples stuff. Sure it pissed off the three person group I was playing with regular on a lan at the time, though we understood its need.

2 handed damage bonus (fact)

Gentlemen start your engines

Raid variance ... seems to lead to shit spawning at 3am-8am and unfortunately it is immediately killed then, whereas it would ordinarily be killed and respawn regularly at a sane hour. Talk about your raid scene :P.
