Rangers being garbage is as classic as it gets

Nerf pet track, I say! Make Rangers Relevant Again

[Donkey Hotay]

Seems like a good time for one of the other projects (TAKP) to announce a ban on multiboxing--or rather, after WoW's attraction has dimmed.

I don't donate or raid here and never have since I started in 2011ish so my opinion doesn't impact the owners but as one of the NPCs that fill out the world for those types, I'm not interested in having my gameplay nerfed just because. The folks arguing for these sorts of annoyances are heavily medicated.

Yeah, not sure that even a simple majority of the playerbase desires Luclin/PoP much less a vast, vast majority.

Not me. That rubbish drove me out of the game once and it'd drive me away again.

Certainly some players <3 the classic era too. I'm just saying most don't, and certainly not anywhere close to as much as R&N do (eg. some might claim that they "hate cats on the moon", but you take their pet window away and look out! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.])

There have been many, many polls over the years. I'm lazy, but you can easily find them if you want.

Of course, different polls are worded differently, and were done at different times, so please can we not argue over exactly what % want Luclin and what % don't? My point is, if this were a democracy, we'd have Luclin ... and yet ... even though the creators of this project are "bucking the will of the majority" ... even though they're limiting people and not letting them have their full EverQuest nostalgia experience ... everyone still LOVES this place!

I think that's because, even though it doesn't have Luclin or PoP, and even though most players do remember (and likely pine for) Luclin/PoP, P99 resembles their memories more than any other server in existence today does, live or emulated.

Well I started a new monk on the blue server. I am not sure what was done in the patch to make the mob hit harder and the monk gets crushed by a bat, snake and skellies. The deathfist pawns smashed me to. I never got smashed like that ever in my eq experience. What ever you did. Messed up the game play bad. Now the new ui does not look good at all. The functionality stinks. You can't move the spells you have casted on you. My self liked the older ui. Which I think represents the older game.

I agree about the UI. The sad part is this UI is going to be a requirement on green. I hate it and althought not preferred would much rather use one of the many remade classic era interfaces.

+1 for the change to Character Select. Also, just noticed...the ability to change facial features after the fact appears to be disabled now. /cheer /applaud /cry

[Zarr]

[Muggens]

So when I download the new file zip it says there's a virus... I can't launch the game because it says DSETUP.dll was not found. Does someone have a clean DSETUP for me to download? Thanks!
