Is white knighting possible if there aren't any actual women present, only female character models?

It's unfortunate that this is a thing. The moment I found out my guild on one of the TLP servers would be making my SK do this, I stopped playing it and started something else. It's just funny that your most useful aspect in raids is to get killed so everyone else can succeed. How boring.
Is standing there autoattacking any better?

Control is still in your hands, so at least you feel active and contributing.

And it's why they (PAL/SK) are DT fodder more often than not.

Hi again. Worst class is a war/sk/pali who has mobs running all over because they can't aggro worth shit. Call in a ranger to grab it off the squishier's...

If a paladin or SK can't hold agro, they just suck.

Everything gets locked down except amy wars and knights.

Those can bounce because our wars need to tank them and they need a sec to get agro even when I root.

And I think casters are used to the insane pally agro so they have a habit of going early.

SK's have good snap but nobody will pull off a pally after my combo without a taunt.

Based on how game mechanics were in 1999, rather than the altered version we have here with P99, this was my ranking of the classes - https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=147

I would probably put Ranger as the worst overall for P99. Rogues have the upgraded versions of Sneak and Backstab already at Green launch, right? That's a big boost over what they used to be initially. NPC's on P99 still don't flee as swiftly as they used to in Classic as well, right? So that makes Ranger snare less valuable than it was back in the day. Hybrids on P99 Green do get the benefit of a bigger mana pool and having Meditate as compared to way back in 1999, and also casting in combat working more efficiently, but overall I'd probably put Rogue sneak as being the more pivotal thing, for corpse dragging when people die in bad spots.

Paladin is probably the worst when Rangers are able to catch up in gear, and in this modified era of LGuk no longer being that great of a place to go; RIP the benefit of Ghoulbane and undead DD's for grinding on those undead froggies.
