... but click off wolf form.

How can you min max but slow your pulls and cut down your dps like that?

Also wolf animations far superior.

I love how wolf form animation runs at a set speed no matter how fast they are actually travelling.

occasional wolf form can make for some fun rp opportunities (beyond the leg humping enthusiastically embraced by the greater community). that said, i regularly remove wolf form, particularly if i am not feeling like being a dog (which is often, interestingly). However,

1. i am not a disgusting lizard (ever) and
2. perhaps more importantly, i do not min-max anything other than monotony-fun ^^

No Trolmo, tho!

Thank you for your concern, Lhance. However, this is my serious monthly rant. People min maxing for their few extra hp or whatever, but turn down the free dps and improved pulling of wolf form.

@Swish: your counter arguments are far too logical and are not welcome in RNF. Please desist or I will have thread moved to server chat. Note I was even mindful enough to misspell title for true RNF feals.

I am waiting for some autistic nerd to jump in here and start defending Iksar, it always happens when any perceived slight occurs towards that race.

I despise the wolf form animations, and hate the fact I cannot see if I am sitting or standing when in wolf form. I never use this spell on my druid. Ever.

Excellent rant, if a little succinct. There is a fix for this. I can't point you to it tho.

small races are god mode pullers because they can see through walls

thats how i feel for the most part, the whole animation of the fd feels weird too, its still viable for a few scenario's like pulling wide open outdoor zones (dreadlands/ot) maybe.

I hate wolf form and having my character dive through an NPC in the lunging attack animation. It really screws up my positioning when I'm suddenly no longer in attack range after I back up to no longer lunge through the hit box.

And then there's the times where I'm backed to a wall or cycling through third person views and it shows me the inside of the wolf's head. Gross.

Wolf form is auto click off for me.

Instead of cycling views you should map a key to title pane and use that to activate rotating camera.

A good puller knows what's respawning, and in which room at any given time.

Sorry you're bad and have to use an unintended exploit.

Using wall-vision allows for a small person to take a peek at what's inside to know what you need to do to break it most efficiently.

once a room is broken, any old moron (you) can run circles picking up respawns

Or in most cases you've pulled/split the room before so you know the deal. Honestly, basics...

I notice a pattern here. Since coming back Swish has been on an attack spree attacking other elf posters on the forums.

All the elfs gave him a warm and genuine "welcome back" greeting when he came back from his suspension and this is how he shows his appreciation.

Someone tell Swish there's no need to create strife in order to give himself relevance here. We are all of the same ilk, enlightened nerdlings of the p99 forums.

Reminds me when someone has self-esteem issues, so they have to constantly insult others to make themself feel better.

There is where he tells you to stop making personal attacks and that you're nuthugging him. The cycle is all very silly. Hope next ban is permanent.

The cycle is silly, you point out an easy fix for something and people get mad, then point the finger..."Swish's fault" then talk about more bans like pointing out people's errors and short sightedness is now bannable :rolleyes:

Who is mad? You must be talking about someone else other than me.

I was pointing out how since you came back you been attacking people, the same very people that actually welcomed you back warmly.

***Personally this doesn't make me mad, it makes me sad. :(

You need to remember it was a post classic graphics update that broke a lot of things such as wolf/iksar animations, armour textures, transparencies and so on,

These fixes are reverting the client to a more classic, non-broken state!

Wolf form would be great if the sit/stand animations worked properly. My OCD/autism starts to give me compulsions when I can't clearly see my char sitting or standing.

I've heard that there is a first-person mode for EQ. Maybe that would solve your problem? Do take care to always go third-person in melee, whichever bozo decided it was a good idea for wolf-form melee animation to clip thru the target has earned a very special place in hell. First-person for sitting/travelling, thrid-person for melee and the oh-so-important spitting arrows out your mouth.

if you don't know if you're sitting just turn, if you turn you're standing up

good advice there. also, when you sitting, they button say "STAND" instead of "SIT." that what i usually go off.
