I have no idea what's stopping you from conducting your own tests that show your MR and level range of caster. Instead you are going through /100 days played logs and so far you've come up with 2 examples. So 2/100 days (1/50) youll have a chance to be first casted regardless of MR, level and level range.

Pumice takes channeling if I'm getting hit. As can be seen in previous logs, had I no dispel wand, theres no way I'd have made it out alive.

Thanks for your troll input though.

So Nirgon,

Do you think end game (and on this server end game is ez to get to, i don think there is a monk left in Nihilum without a T-staff and dragon haste and a high resist set) Monks, Warriors, Rogues,etc. being immune to CC is good for this pvp server?

Honest question.

Do you know what a sad joke any caster on this server is pitted against the current end game meele? Why would you think making it even more lopsided is good for the server?

I killed plenty of melees without root.

I got killed by them too.

You see, things like T-staffs are classic. Do I think a cleric manastoning and CH'ing over and over is fair? No. But it's a classic element of the game.

I have one consideration, to play classic Everquest. Would I be better in group vs group as a dragonhasted, tstaff monk? Probably. Is it still possible to beat one? Maybe not in every situation but yes.

As far as dragon haste and high end resist items etc, I am still a major proponent of item loot. It won't kill the server, much like a classic resist system wouldn't either. Is someone going to get ganked and lose an item? Oh definitely. Are they going to cry like a baby and quit? Up to them.

Risk vs reward.

Well when melees are unrootable at 50+ magic resist as an even con, maybe they'd think about it.

Funny how the Everquest team had an entire staff of designers and developers who *did do this as a job* and they decided it was the system that worked best.

Oh yeah and then those other fruit cakes came along and made cats on the moon expansions and broke everything.

now unrootable at 50mr. dude you did not pvp during classic lol.

[Dullah]

Out of 60 players online at 4pm est, 9 of them are melees. I wonder why???? Surely this resist system is successful and beneficial to all players! Everyone obviously supports it...

[SamwiseBanned]

so one GMR and im immune!!! lol now its just getting silly.

[Nirgon]

Samwise I have a link to my character's guild history on RZ and people from that server recognized me by name.

It's getting classic, you're getting scared. I expect that out of a lot of people here.

I'd love to see that invis pulling shit removed here too.

I was told if you don't like it, leave. So I did.

But they also welcome submissions to fix non classic elements to the game. Aye, there's the rub.
