Recent Decline In Population

[Aadill]

The argument against "MY CLASS GOT NERFED [to classic]" is that all of the reasons for change are due to research. All that research has been posted in the bugs forum. All that research is available to anybody. All that available research can lead you to understand what class you should be playing, not what you are playing.

Look at Fippy: SK Harmtouch was WAY too good, Monk h2h damage was post-velious damage tables upon server START, pets were even more powerful than here, post-Ykesha drops were available in classic zones, augments are available for weapons.... the players there don't even have to suffer the concept of "classic accuracy." While some of the changes seem a bit ostensibly done in the name of classic everquest, we all should come to know what to expect (DoT changes, Snare/Root, Mage Pets needing weapons to duel wield, etc).


Death said it very well, too:

I didn't put anything about nerfs or changes in the poll choices because if your class was nerfed or changed in some way, it was because the development team deemed it neccessary to do so in order to keep the game as close to classic as possible.

If you joined up for the classic experience and then you quit because you got the classic experience, then I don't know what to tell ya.

If people quit because of the game operating like it should, welp.
