Keep up the good work!
Yeah Luclin has some key functions. The casino can also help with plat inflation and de-emphasize legacy item importance.

I'd really like to see people stop remaking classic servers over and over. There are so many dead classic EQemu projects where people did some coding and then quit. A big problem is that they're also "custom classic" servers like FaydWAR so the code is all jumbled together mixing classic changes with custom and none of these have ever built a classic progression framework like P99 is using so that content can change based on a preconfigured timeline.

P99 broke tracking while nerfing it to be "classic" and didn't fix it for months or years after it should have worked again. Same with immolate. Their last patch broke spell fading messages and it will be fixed "when there is time." Meanwhile major core functionality continues to be ignored like the resist system, channeling, push mechanics, etc. This kind of two steps back one step forward coding is just sad. P99 staff remains insular and has declined offers to help.

Ok, I'll go reinvent the wheel for the 100th time but hopefully this can be the last time.
