I think you're overreacting to the buff timers. All you need to do to adjust is to know the timers on the ones you give out and keep a rough count, or pay attention to when it fades on you as a marker and recast on everyone else.

People will still click their jboots before zoning into a dungeon etc, not much has changed if you think about it.

I will certainly know how to adapt. I have a huge array of timer bar overlays set up for my shaman using the GINA tool. So I am good. And this is an allowed tool. So there is no point in removing timer bars in the game. I can easily adapt. I said in my first post that I am just interested in knowing why they did this change...

Just wow some of folk do not get it .

Nilbog:

" I'll keep making classic changes when I can, regardless if people threaten to quit. I'm here to recreate classic eq; not to make people happy."



In other words just stop your crying about these changes and play or move on, nothing you do will make them change it back.

I perfectly understand it, and I'm not bitching, just stating the fact that "Classic" EQ was a shitty game, and I won't be playing it once it becomes truly "CLASSIC".

With respect I disagree with your statement, As i love original everquest through velious. Hence why i play here.

I also loved PoP , but if i want that content i will go play somewhere else like Tak project or alkobar 2002 servers.

Many people would love it to be as classic as possible, and that's great. I'm glad there's a place for you... it's just not my thing. =)

Personally, I would prefer if P99 took up a lot of the QOL improvements implemented on live.

So then, why do I play here?
Large population
No boxing
Classic CONTENT (meaning kunark/velious mobs and areas)
I've made friends here


Buff timers aren't a big deal, there are workarounds for people who care.. or for me I won't even notice it. Now, if scrollwheel to 3rd person was removed, or classic UI was forced, or open spellbook to med was implemented I would certainly find somewhere else to play.

It would actually be nice if these changes happened, then I could find a new hobby!

Yeah the guys who work on this passion project do a really good job. I won't complain about classic changes, but I would happily switch to a server with a similar population, similar content set, and lots of non-classic QoL features.

Another 2015er bites the dust. Peace
