Why is every change on this server a conspiracy? Maybe xp got changed now because the devs just finished implementing it. Maybe that sword doesn't proc because it requires a large amount of time and effort for a relatively small payoff. The devs didn't create the xp formula that the server was using before. They have to work off of the existing EQEmu code, which has a lot of bugs, and which has almost no classic features.

This ^^.

In beta, we had limited source development ( /hug Ladoth).
We also didn't know something was wrong initially. (4 months?)
When we did find out something was wrong we didn't know what. (2 months?)
Then it was found and fixed, just like any other bug.

Then please make it so pet classes lose exp if they don't do atleast 50% of the damage more than their pets either soloing or grouping.

Thank you Bumamgar, Haynar, Aeolwind and everyone else who contributed to the fixes and the explanations here. I'm sure you're pretty jaded by now to all the whining whenever something doesn't go someone's way, but some of us are genuinely grateful for the time and effort you contribute to this great project whether that effort makes things more or less convenient for players. Part of the appeal of classic EverQuest was the difficulty and I believe many of us appreciate your efforts to recreate that difficult.

Thank you!

BAM another nail in the coffin.

R.I.P. P99

/waves bye to Arriva.

Everyone seems to miss the point that we aren't here for you. We'll continue to work if there are 8, 80, 800 or 8000 people on the server.

We (as the development staff) don't charge for the server, we don't beg people to play.

And speaking strictly for myself I don't care if you like a change that is made or not. You knew sharing of hybrid penalties was in classic and now we've fixed it. If you don't like that aspect of it, tough shit. It's part of the package.

Arriva slashes P1999 forums for 11 posts of damage!
Aoelwind begins to cast Banhammer
Aoelwind hits Arriva for 32,767 damage!
Arriva has been slain by Aoelwind.
Arriva's corpse twitches momentarily before falling still.

Arriva your a fucking idiot. The server is very populated, i see a steady influx of new players each week, and the more whiny bitches like you that go, the better.

Kill yourself

Been lurking for a while, but it seems like there's a lot of anger over something that should have been expected going in. So all I have to say to a ton of these posts is, "lol u mad?"

Experience rate is about half of that in classic EverQuest, as it stands right now.

I know you'll probably reply with some knee-jerk "You dont remember classic" reply, but believe me, I 3-box-power-leveled characters on Ebay during classic to pay for my first car. I have a pretty firm grip on the experience gain of every class, at every level range, in the classic era.

Something since the exp patch has caused a significant miscalculation in experience gain.

A solid, efficient 6-person group should gain 1 yellow an hour at lvl 20+. An efficient duo or trio, especially of pet classes, can gain up to twice this or more. Currently experience gain is half or 1/3rd that rate.

Please look into this before discrediting my judgment.

Translation: my 3 pals that recently lost their characters for cheating need to be power-leveled up again, but the xp is going too slow.

You must fix this for me because I am a great person that used to sell characters on E-bay /roar.

Dont worry Modus, their is no doubt in anyone's mind that you are indeed the biggest loser on this server, you dont need to continue to prove it to us.

Aeolwind, please ban this troll like Arriva was.

Oh wait, Gwence is from Inglourious Basterds, nevermind.

I take Modus' post with a grain of salt. IF this is true then he may have a point. Don't completely discount anything.

As everything in the past, if there is truly something wrong we can fix it. But hyperbole and frothing won't get you there. In this particular case, conjecture may go a long way to helping us determine if something is broken with it. After seeing the calculations & the research that was put into it I'm in the "It's damn close" camp.
