So this completely boils down to:

"Please allow me to do something to grief everyone else on the server so I can be a butthead griefer and piss everyone off and make them QQ. I know it's stupid and would cause lots of grief and I don't care because it's <<< CLASSIC >>>"

Not a very convincing argument.

When I used to DM tabletop RPGs invariably we'd have one guy who always played a thief just to steal shit from everyone else or he'd play a kender or some other obnoxious class and be completely focused on making everyone else miserable, angry and frustrated. Invariably he'd get caught, his character would get killed (quite gruesomely usually) and he'd whine about it the rest of the night about how unfair it was, he was just ROLEPLAYING after all and finally I'd have to throw him out.

Were you one of those guys? Be honest...

I was also the dude in CS that perma-used the tactical shield and WMP

Can you translate that into a Modern Warfare 2 reference please?

Appreciated.

I'm not much up on modern videa games but I think he's saying that he is that dude that likes to do the things you don't like to have done to you.

I voted yes on picking magic items ...if it was in classic then its needs to be here. I get tired of people bitching all the time that this is a classic server and you have to nerf this or change that but when it isn't something they want its always don't change it just for a couple of people . I'm sure most of the hybrid classes who are getting hit with that ridiculous EXP penalty would love to have that gone but it was decided that since it was that way in classic it has to say. The server either needs to either put the good stuff in with the bad and make it a true classic server or go semi custom and change what needs to be changed. Thanks for listening feel free to ripe my post to shreds its fun to read 8-) .

Well it might have been nice if you had actually read the thread before posting.

#1 it may have been classic but it was taken out
#2 what I have been able to find says they could not pick magic items, or worn/equipped items (which Abacab says he can do and may need to be nerfed).
#3 Aeolowelowewind said that this may have been something that should have been in at the beginning but since no one can provide any EVIDENCE of when it was removed that it's not going to be put in now.


I am sure if someone can find EVIDENCE that Rogues were able to pick magic items pre-kunark the dev's would reconsider.

IIRC it was taken out a long time ago (but it was definately in game) because Rogues used to sneak into Vox's lair and were able to pickpocket the 100% weight reduction bag.

I wish I could find it on the net still. I remember seeing screenshots.

I'm certain they were able to pick magical items, but it was removed long, long before rubi and such were removed. If I'm not mistaken, it was a "feature" that got added in for about 3 weeks before it became super well known. Originally, the vox and naggy bags weren't magical, and thus were pickable, that is what brought to light the issue cause someone killed a Nagafen and got no loot =o. Logs revealed that the items on Nagafen had been picked and we have an instance of a notorious emergency patch. Mobs for the recent time frame had mysteriously been loading empty, and there was some complaints, but it was short lived. Also, shortly following that, the bags became magical and were thus no longer retrievable.

lol, you used to be able to disarm the PoD too and grab his staff. That got nerfed right away too. That was never allowed on this server was it?

[Finawin]

Disarm is brokeded as far as I know.
