It's not certain though

[username17]

Can anyone explain the difference between these two Cons?

[Wed Jul 16 19:10:50 2014] Guard Fralldo regards you indifferently -- You could probably win this fight.

I noticed that I'm getting two different messages from when I Con green guards in Freeport.

Does the "..it's not certain though." mean it's actually light blue instead of green?
If so, what was the point of removing light blue?

[Oleris]

Guessing one used to be L-blue, and other is a green con.

[joe426]

light blue con wasnt classic? and these different con messages gives u a hint if u will get exp from the mob?

[username17]

It seems that way Joe. Removing l-blue was pointless since the originial con message is still in place.

[Pringles]

shhhhhh

light blue con wasnt classic? and these different con messages gives u a hint if u will get exp from the mob?

correct

[foldupmonk]

I know after the "nerf" the light blue mobs still show up on tracking as a different color. Easy to tell.


Please don't hit me with the nerf bat

[fastboy21]

on my track list there are no more light blues, but there are two shades of green (lighter and darker). the lighter green ones are the former light blues.

this happened on its own (i'm not using some special ui designed to circumvent the update or something) after the last patch. i am using vert ui...but uncertain if that is relevant.

[Thulack]

already a bug report about the 2 shades of green on track. I'm sure they can change the con message aswell if they can fix the track bug.

[Yinikren]

Con messages are based on how green the mob is, basically. Level still plays a factor.

[blondeattk]

which utter twat bug report this? Id like to give em good hard slappin.

Yup lol.

[Rhambuk]

whats the big deal here?

they changed the color when you /con, mob is the same level you still get crappy Lb exp.
is having to /con and read that much work?

[phacemeltar]

someone is going through bug-reporting all the good glitches.. makes me laugh

[Halius]

Not sure how relevant this is to P99 but here is the con message breakdown from Allakhazam.

http://everquest.allakhazam.com/eq_consider.html

They are definitely different than the messages on P99 but gives you an idea of level differences depending on message. Would be nice to see an actual breakdown of what level range a mob is based off messages on P99 though.

[Messianic]

Pretty sure this was classic. My monk chiseled through "barely green" mobs all the time and I remember I was able to distinguish before light blue cons.

That's just memory tho.

Someone mentioned the Green color issue on Sirken's monday night stream.
