New Patch— HGs are nerfed it seems

[ScottBerta]

Seems maybe only 4 HG spawns now in Rathe Mountains. I could be wrong but definitely not 6 like before. Didn’t see any spawn in valley and some different location on hill. Anyone have any Other updates?

Green patch broke BLUE
Hybrid defense seems fucked up again too

Kill trash and they will spawn. Really messed up the camp rules. Are they a camp now of FTE? It went from a chill afk camp to pvp brawl.

Weren't HG's in Rathe always FTE? I don't recall there being any that are stationary. They all wander.

The six HG spawn points were named and listed on the wiki. You could camp one. Roamers were fair game and FTE. The HG would spawn and eventually start to roam and become FTE.

HGs were always FTE but had 6 spawn points on 6min 40 sec timers. They would path if not engaged upon spawning. Now much less spawns it seems and Some are not in same spots.

You could sit at a spawn and claim that one spawn per server rules. You could find the spawn names and locations on the wiki. It was a sub picture under the Rathe Mountain map.

wait, what about hybrid defenses?

[doomdark64]

Great , so since the server started people have been able to farm plat , now they stop it so people that are up to that point cant. So now you run around killing place holders while someone watches you and steals the giant that spawns. Its out of order and an unnecassary change that will cause more trouble than the change was worth.

The hill giant changes have been in the bug report section for a very, very long time.

Going to drop a knowledge bomb...
Get a Bard to AE Swarm the lowbie trash in the rathe mountains hill giant bubble.
Wait ~6 minutes
Kill any HGs that pop and repeat.
Profit

That’s a lot more work then how it use to be Baler.. seemed that zone on blue wasn’t a problem. Don’t know why they messed with it.

The whole point of this project is to recreate everquest as it was in 1999, warts and all. If something isn't how it was back then, expect it to be changed eventually.

Bard AE kiting being reinstated soon?

Obviously not, you know that.

They try to do classic as much as possible, unless they decide something shouldn't be in classic. And no, these calls are not reverted.

You get a whole lot more Plat because people aren't hanging out there.
Just think of it as HGs on a 12 min timer but you get twice as many. ;)

On green people would shit sock there 24.7 on all the spawns. I imagine the number of petitions generated due to this was staggering. Adults not following the PnP.

SK Treants had their loot tables nerfed hard also.
