We all know star/recondo is the same person with multiple accounts but why does he quote himself and respond to himself? Is it some kind of severe mental disorder? Should we be finding him help?

Explain why for the grand majority of years there were no charming guids on P99? For the same reason: players are lazy, and they dont think outside the box, when someone has already handed them a box. Now they are handed tons of boxes, via youtube the wiki the forums and the collective knowledge that we ALL have after 10+ years. | |||

Or actually, it's worse than that: we know for a fact that there were Druid charm guides back then! So really you're arguing not only that people ignored their own spell list, but also that they ignored explicit guides telling them to charm ,,, despite the fact that it could mean faster XP. That doesn't at all sounds like how EverQuest players (in any era) were.

The millennials would just claim all the "boomers" were idiots doing it wrong all along. Remember the runaround we had with combat bind wound until it was demonstrated impossible? Problem here is charm wasn't impossible, merely less reliable than on P99, so finding the required proof is dramatically less likely. In the meantime I'm content to live with it as-is. Most "random" spells--not just charm, but root, invisible, etc--are probably tuned a little too friendly on P99. Entire reason groups fell over themselves for wanting enchanter crowd control was because Mez was reliable with its fixed duration and didn't break early all the time. Don't even care about having an enchanter around on P99. I prefer such spells being a little too "friendly" over the alternative of hitting them with an excessive nerfbat and making them all worse than they should be. Yuck. Leave it as-is until such a time as evidence allows it to be made exact. That'll take more work than I'm willing to put in. Nobody will ever convince me that the lull spell line is right here, either. I was a Paladin and I tried everything with it, including heavy charisma sets/buffs. It was crap because of the artificially inflated resist rate it had. There's another one that's probably too good on P99. Mezzes memblur absurdly often too. Enchanters happen to get most of this stuff so they see a uniquely strong power boost from it, but really almost everyone benefits from something or other. Careful what you wish for.

Loramin, you ever thought, your own personal Experience and memories are different then what you truly remember 20 years ago. Also, you ask why did so many enchanters group back then? Simple
A) EQ IS AN MMO. Meaning players wanted to party and group and play with friends. Not everyone is a solo junkie like they do now(blame wiki for that, the thing you love so much) B) Just bc there was lots of guides, and only 1 charm guide. Doesn't mean crap. How many gamers kept hidden knowledge to themselves? Cough Fire pots, Epic quest info. Not every game wants 2 share their knowledge. Hell I am sure in someones attic, is some nice little notebooks they wrote up guides for THEMSELVES, not to post on Gamefaqs, or Allak, or whatever site. C) Internet- Have you tried charming while lagging like heck on Dial up? I am sure, how reliable is that vs now on cable connections. Charming is much safer now, bc you had random lag spikes, or DC's on dial up compared to now. Hence very very very few solo'd. (I remeber my uncles friend on his necro soloing alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the time in Lguk with his spec pet, was beyond jelly with my 14 year old eyes bleeding in nerdgasm) D) Instead of focusing on Enchanters. How bout you focus on Necros.. Who still can't life tap most mobs in game. Bc of a damn Ivanders hoop(instead of nerfing it, they nerf'd a whole damn class oh and SKs) Also Cant send pets across zone like you could.. Wheres this classic fixes at??? Druid Track still wrong. Never had the pre hate event in kith. SSTAMINA?? Where is the drain when I swim? Or swing a sword? There are buffs/songs that was DESIGNED for this feature. I hate how so much changes are based on info on wayback. Some yes I am sure is great info. But most of it is just bc Look one person said it. Its gotta be true.
