"Classic" has never and will never exist on a server where everyone knows the future. From the moment the first person said "manastones will go away so I will camp a ton of them and sell them for all the money in the world" classic was a myth. The devs have done a tremendous job giving us a game that's LIKE the game we were playing in 1999, but it's impossible for it to be exactly the same game so things that are impractical or detrimental or less useful for gameplay (bugs, exploitative mechanics, etc.) may as well be flushed down the toilet where they belong.

The real question is, is con-target one of those things?

Is hitting the "C" key really all that tedious?

Just be glad you all have your new fancy UIs with percentages and multiple hotbars and medding without being blind.

One day, we will get cleansed of these horrible things that make players think they are better than classic. And all will be right in the world. Praise classic UI.

We have changed the way the /consider command works and expanded the level range at which players are able to gain experience. We have added a 'light blue' area between green and blue. NPCs that used to /consider green but gave experience will now /consider light blue, as well as NPCs of slightly lower level than those greens. You will always get experience for something that is light blue. You will not receive experience for greens. At the same time, by including lower level NPCs in the light blue /consider, we have increased the range of lower level NPCs that will grant experience. This will be most noticeable for characters of higher level.
