Takp is pretty good. My goal there would be buff bots, not to box rly.

Ppl go overboard farming plat tho and using bazaar equip to get single grp gear or don't rly invite ppl to camp fbss, same problems as green in this regard.

Never tried to raid, my wiz is stuck at 55 with great gear and quad spells and easy access to mgbs.

There's definitely something about the boxing and gear trivilizing content that ruins immersion making it just an exercise in plat farming and maybe raiding with two characters at once after a year of that?

Just hard for me to invest long term, 2 years out, even tho my present character is already almost that old.

There's just something incoherent that has nothing to do with the Vah'shir.

its the small things

and since soe introduced a little thing called instancing the entire genre went to poopdiapers, procedural generated content, bazaar.. "Material Instancing".. its all poop

yup took me like 10 minutes to set it up (including download time)

Good to know!

Would you know, comparable to Beastlords pet, is Mage's pet stronger? Probably, since Mage can't melee like Beastlord. I was thinking to try Beastlord since that one would be new to me and I would have melee class for sort of tank for my group... (Beastlord, Druid, Cleric)?

[starkind]

Mage pets are tankier. Bst tank for their pets with gear and aa.

A mage/bst duo wouldn't be terrible.

Bst can haste and slow like a lower lvl shm but probably can't really heal mage pet.

Swapping a mage for a bst in a trio doesn't sound horrible either. But there is a lot of buffing involved to get the most out of a bst.

Bst, pally, dru would probably be coool :cool:

Mage pets are stronger than Beastlord pets. However Beastlord pets get amazing proc / Dex buffs and are proc machines too.

Beastlord is a very good class to start with.
bst/dru/clr is a 100% perfect starting trio.

Bst offers tank/pet tank + slow + buffs
dru offers ports, DS, buffs and very good heals
clr offers rez, buffs and CH

Once you get this trio to 60, you can easily powerlevel any other class you want to play.

Just yesterday I noticed, if I run over frozen river in Everfrost, I get swimming XP. Cool! Gotta try it out. So I'm running down South, little I knew, there is one small hole in the ice. I fell into it. At the same moment, that NPC that drops nice mid level cloak had to come by and of course attacked me. I couldn't gate, attack or get out. He killed me and he is probably even green to me.

Nah, Cleric will be my important group member :-))))

If I ever get PAKT client working on my Linux, this will be my starting combo.

The rest is similar to P99, right? Best Druid is Wood Elf, Dwarf Cleric is a good combo and these two can start leveling together right away since one can easy run to another zone.

But I have no clue about BST, which class would be preferable?

[Seducio]

TAKP is a good change of pace in regards wanting a high quality EQ experience that is not Live similar to p99. Glad both exist.

The individuals on TAKP tend toward low drama with TAKP staff being on point and in the same ball park of expertise as p99 staff.

Can single box on TAKP like on p99. Good portion of server plays one character at a time though most play more than that. So grouping is more sparse than p99, but grouping does happen.

When you see people stopping to play p99 due to various 'Life' reasons there is chance that some of those individuals would enjoy TAKP. Reason is TAKP is more forgiving to busy folks fully living their 2021 lives while dipping their toes into EQ than p99 would be. TAKP has slightly faster leveling by 20%, level 60 MGB buffs avail in PoK, Bazaar. Basically all the things that made EQ easier and not as tough. But for folks that want their EQ fix and who have full lives, TAKP might work better than p99 for some.

Basically TAKP is the spot to do the game at your own pace. Epics being solo'd are actually a thing there. With PoP still not out yet, there is an expansion to look forward to being released in the future compared to Green's release of Velious and relative proximity to Blue timeline at this point in server history.

Overall p99 is superior if one wants a healthy server population outside of Live.

[unsunghero]

The best way to box IMO is with late-expansion mercenaries. You can effectively cover tasks such as healing nearly as well as with a player char with absolutely zero effort required, the mercenary just auto-follows and heals

I got sick of having to alt-tab so much back when I was 2box'ing. I guess I could have gotten into scripting but never did. But with mercenaries, you could make even a 2 box become incredibly strong

[Seducio]

TAKP is quite different from Live. It's attempting to mimic PoP era locked Mac based EQ server. Max level is 60 so it is closer to p99 than Live. TAKP has a different rule set than p99 like OP mentioned though.

I never played with late stage Mercs on Live. I stopped on LIve at LDON. No interest to play with Mercs either to be honest.

I never played with late stage Mercs on Live. I stopped on LIve at LDON. No interest to play with Mercs either to be honest.

Mercs simply allowed more freedom in smaller box compositions. You could run a 2dps team with 2 healer mercs. Or you could run a tank + dps team with a healer merc and a dps. The only thing you couldn’t do well was use the tank merc. When I was playing live, the tank mercs were always underpowered. Apparently the devs didn’t want merc tanks to come even remotely close to surpassing players

Without mercs, then the process for me (and I imagine most people) to box was to have 2+ instances of the game running and hit alt+tab. I was playing mag+Necro and 2 healer mercs, and sometimes I would be alt tabbing 50+ times per fight. It got super hectic. I eventually tried to set up /castsequence macros in game. But I found out those were far too restrictive, and there was no way to “break” out of them. So if something went awry (as things often do), your char would not cast what you wanted but instead still be following the sequence, and it would get me killed. So I eventually ditched the /castsequence macros

Not sure how people box 3+ accounts nowadays on servers like TAKP. They must have a better system than alt-tab

[dcortez]

Shared banking and the ability to shuffle characters between three accounts is convenient. You can have a fourth account for trading (only).

[Seducio]

So far I have run into folks running one character just like here and more than you would think do that there. Some who run two chars as they don't like to run all three, and those that run three (four if you include trader) typically are doing the Hotkeynet thing. Hotkeynet allows for quicker switching than alt-tab. A few folks use several machines one for each char for visibility but thats like playing drums and lots of movement by the player. Some shrink the screen and get all 4 screens on one big HDTV or large monitor. Almost everyone is doing it slightly differently in accordance with how much energy they want to spend playing.

Regarding the good community and low drama on that server...

I have not had a single camp dispute so far and I'm in my 50s there. Real communication is happening between folks when two players want the same camp rather than p99 style rule lawyer battles.

It could be that the low population which hovers between 200 and 400 people online encourages hospitality or perhaps folks that are willing to be on a server that allows boxing somehow tend toward avoiding getting into arguments online.

So far so good though.

[Graahle]

TAKP is awesome. The people are 100x more pleasant too.

[Seducio]

Just got Run3 Alternative Advancement. Still not quite level 60 but almost.

It's rad running faster than mobs in a dungeon without sow.

[Baler]

TAKP recently added a stat showing the number of 3 box, 2box and single box players online.

You have to log in on the forum, it's on the right side on their forums.

I was surprised how many single box players there are.

[starkind]

Boxing sucks. It's nice to have buffs tho. And some form of pulling or splitting if u ever want to do any halfway hard named camp.

And u can do that real well almost not boxing with a halfway decently geared character.

With a healthy raid scene like the one on TAKP you don't need to box to compete.

[Mead]

I made toons on there when it first came out. I can't remember specifically what it was but something with the 3rd person view and scrolling probably that was unplayable for me. If I can't play in 3rd person view and scroll around with my mouse it ain't happening.

[Seducio]

The no mouse scroll to 3rd person is a no go for many on TAKP. It put me off the first few times I played. Eventually got used to it after a week or two.

Now when I play p99 mouse scroll is this awesome extra QoL feature.

Pretty sure neither TAKP nor p99 should have mouse scroll if they were both in accordance with what Live had at that time.

P99 has spoiled us.

[Tunabros]

yeah the first person thing kinda put me off at first

but once i got used to it, it had a certain charm to it

mostly played takp to explore luclin and see what "aas" and "vex thal" is 0-0

[unsunghero]

u can't third person zoom? that's a no for me then

[HalflingSpergand]

U can use f9 to switch cameras and then zoom if i remember right. But no just straight up scrolling out. Or quick map other buttons for that

When I found P99 I though this is my home. But my client on Linux crashes a lot, resulting in numerous deaths across all three servers.

Then I tried TAKP. On my computer game is more stable. Community is perfect! I'm slow, solo player with not much game time. 3 box is perfect in this regard.


Not sure how people box 3+ accounts nowadays on servers like TAKP. They must have a better system than alt-tab

On Linux, you have multi workspaces. I set my to 3 for each character one, and my fingers are already used to (Xfce) shortcuts: Ctrl+Alt+Arrow(left or right) As you switch to next (or previous) desktop, game client is already active.

It can be pretty fun. Send in tank, switch to Magician, click on macro to send in pet and start nuking, switch to Cleric and click on nuking or healing macro, whatever you need.

TAKP's client has built in multiboxing switching software but I've never used it yet.

TAKP has a player counter that shows actual populations on their forums.

https://i.imgur.com/2ejdJId.png

While the totals are a shell of what P99's numbers are currently, you have to remember that you don't have to box. Nor do you have to actively play 3 characters.

I had to get over the idea that 'boxers are around me' and that it would actually, instead, benefit me to have them there.

Yes, there's a few that box 3. No, they won't exclude you. In fact, for XP grinding, it's often better to have your 3 box and 2 other soloer who are actively contributing.

2002-era EQ actually has a revamped XP formula, and specifically there was a bug on EQMac that resulted in an experience bonus for every player after 3. There is a significant bonus to simply just having another person in your group after 3.

The chart is as follows:
1 member - 100% / 1 = 100%
2 members - 120% / 2 = 60%
3 members - 140% / 3 = 46.7%
4 members - 220% / 4 = 55%
5 members - 260% / 5 = 52%
6 members - 260% / 6 = 43.3%

Of course, this does not include kill speed, which is sped up drastically with more players. 4 is the sweet spot, and 5 minimally detracts from experience.

The wiki is a great source of this information, and players who play on TAKP are highly aware - to the point where people actually actively seek out a 'fourth' solo / 2boxer player to compliment their trio, as it benefits them massively, even if they just leech experience.

takp is a fantastic server, knowing your age I think you will really enjoy it. It feels more classic than anything else available. the netcode and pathing in particular are sooo classic in behavior that it knocks my socks off and foils up my head

[Secrets]

u can't third person zoom? that's a no for me then

This is actually entirely more classic than P99.

P99 should actually not have third person mousewheel zooming. It's a pain in the ass to use insert/delete, but it's era-appropriate and specific to their client.

If you really care about it, there's a github link out there with a client hack that restores mousewheel by hooking it up to a third-party program, of which TAKP's developers will not detect, as they don't scan for third party programs. Short of you streaming the mousewheel, they won't actively pursue you.

Same for things like buff timers. There was something in that same repository that would estimate buff times remaining on the buff list. Not era-appropriate, technically would get you banned, but again, TAKP isn't in the business of being ultra-aggressive in scanning for passive hacks like that, scrollwheel and ShowEQ/MySEQ like p99 is.

In my opinion, those mods don't detract from the experience. But not everyone agrees, and they're in a 'don't ask, don't tell' situation.

No I won't compile it for you. Don't ask.

[imperiouskitten]

i am glad the server filters out the mustzooms

[unsunghero]

Yeah all my gaming free time is going into P99 atm, but I appreciate the info on the way to jury-rig the zoom if I do try takp. Id need to download 2 clients to 2box right?

I play p99 80% of the time in 3rd person zoomed out. Only time I play first person is in cramped dungeons where I can’t zoom

Clickies are mostly the ones kept in PoP for different reasons. Enchanter, Druid, Shaman, Cleric, Wizard (free rune clicky), Bard, Monk. For what I hope are obvious reasons.

The weapons like Warrior epic (Blade of Strategy in particular) are kept for aggro, Ragebringer's still pretty great too. Ranger epic is a slow for that class that otherwise wouldn't have one outside of Vaniki's weapon, but most box a class capable of slow anyways (and wouldn't want to rely on a proc)

Forgettable epics are ones like the Beastlord epic in PoP (it's still pretty damn good in Luclin till VT), Paladin, SK, Magician (in PoP), other half of Ranger/WAR epic, and Necro (despite being a clicky its still shit)
