Petition for AAs to P99

[loramin]

Those were from Legacy of Ykesha; if P99 isn't getting Luclin or Planes of Power, it's really unlikely to get LoY.

Also, it wouldn't help that LoY was a rather unpopular expansion. The thing is though, what made LoY unpopular is exactly what would make it way more classic/appropriate to P99 than those other expansions. If you leave out the things the devs here might not want, like maybe playable Frogloks, their take-over of Guk, and/or dyes, adding LoY would just add five new zones off of Stonebrunt that <60 level characters without AAs could handle. The zones don't have any amazing broken equipment, but they would add fun new pirate-themed places to level that would totally fit into the P99 classic world.

LoY was the best expansion, tied with LDoN!

I think I am the only person in the world with this opinion though.

i actually lieked ldon, but never partook of Y's legacy.

LoY was a ton of client/code fixes that people take for granted or forget.

Cycle target? Do you enjoy your easymode P99 targetting? Thank LoY.
Scroll wheel to 3rd person. Enjoy being able to easily change your view without cycling or memorizing F9 views and panning around to get an optimal angle? Thank LoY.
8 extra bank slots? LoY again
Bard Song Window? Yep LoY.
Raid window allowing for 12 group leaders as opposed to just 10? Also locking the raid and manually moving people between groups? LoY fixed that PoP introduction.
85/15 Flagging rules for PoP and every later flag based zone? LoY did that.

I also really liked ldon, it was possible to tank ldon hard's with a PoP geared shadowknight. I liked that ldon's were 100% always up, but their rewards were low enough that people still wanted to race over PoP and GoD type gear. However when nothing was up for you to race towards ldon provided a decent backup activity you could always do.

I think that's a great way to use instancing. Don't just instance all the top tier raid targets like daybreak does. Instance b-tier raid targets instead. Something like instanced raid zones from 1-2 expansions behind the current expansion doesn't really break the competitive nature of PvE raiding in everquest 1. This thought can't really help p99, but I wish daybreak could learn from it. Although daybreak's TLP's are so badly written as to not be classic at all in the first place, so who cares.

Wonder if classic WoW will do it any better? I actually enjoyed MMORPG's until burning crusade came out (yeah that means I tolerated luclin and PoP) and I quit them all forever. (I would've stuck with omens of war but my casual raiding guild disbanded the day after WoW came out and tunare marr lost about 90% of it's playerbase in one day).

not classic
