It wasn't meant to be min/maxed by twinks, and exploited to hell. A lot of the spells you listed very much had a use in classic everquest. Especially with how the UI and other mechanics such as book medding etc worked. PVP definitely influenced certain things though.

PvP was a huge part of it.

Show me a quote of one of the EQ developers saying that and MAYBE I'd believe you. Showing me a bunch of abilities that have limited and/or questionable use on a PvE server isn't going to convince me (or anyone else).

Fact: Alot of classic EQ came from Devs that played D&D heavy and thats why balance is so bad. Alot of stuff is in just becuase it added to the environment. Also True North totally PVP Spell!

I am not seeing how make/apply poison makes u think eq was meant to be pvp. How many undead players you met on the server thus far?

To say that something like Pumice Stone is actually a PvE item for letting melees debuff in group PvE encounters is just.. LOL.

The existence of charisma buffs proves that EQ is meant to be a merchant selling game.

The existence of True North proves that EQ is meant to be an exploration game.

i'd think the name itself tells you it's a quest game (pve)

The existence of other player characters proves that EQ is meant to be a PvP game.

The existence of a chat function proves that EQ is meant to be a chat room.

You have some flawless logic, Stinkum. Quit trolling in server chat.
