Look man, maybe you didn't play in Kunark and things did change. Line of sight (unfortunately maybe) was not required to make a cast or to complete it. What did happen that blocked a cast was water. You had to be in the water to hit someone in the water with a spell and vice versa: if you were in water and they weren't - spell effect, mana spent but no damage. It was bugged.

Now... going forward on that how many people are going to introduce it as a bug and freak out / possibly QQquit over it? Are you going for true classic or a "fixed" classic? Well, I think I know what people will want. What you're doing is turning the board into a suggestion mill and bringing in all the developer troll WoW kiddies.

Truth be told, it depends on the crowd this server expects to attract. Do you want to appease the modern market? Or do you want to keep the oldies that possibly turned their nose up at vztz and might play here given the prestige of p99.

More important questions should be "Who is going to GM this thing?" Would I suggest a GM from P99 like Sirken? Hm, he's going to have all kinds of prejudices but guess what.. he will already know who the hell he needs to really be keeping an eye on. He's going to be the most familiar person with the usual bs and antics that get pulled on a "classic" pvp implemented server. He has a nose and eye for bugs. Really though, how he reacts to the players here vs there... he might be past his patience limit who knows. What I do know is there needs to be a close eye on who's GM and how they are going to manage keeping staff present / logging events all hours of the day (good luck).

My only advice to Null is to take his sweet ass time, not burn out and don't release it until it's ready and things are super solid (on paper). After the ducks are in a row, run an extensive beta. It kills two birds with one stone, people get to scratch the itch and we get to sort out anything missed. Sign me up for any testing!

PS: Sorry if I had to compliment Lethdar but people who know wtf they are talking about are few and far between on subjects such as these.

Its been forever so i try not to use my memory as evidence.I had memories nuking people in najena and HK and i thought only Bolts had LoS at the end.
100 % correct here. My first class ever was a mage back in 1999. Any hill/house/object or w.e will block the bolt from hitting you. You could even see the bolt travel towards you it was cool shit. It had a SUPER long range and was really good in outdoors in zones like WC and shit. Indoors? you betta not cast bolt.

Shit! It has been a while! If bolts work on p99 blue I might hafta roll up a wizard and cast a few for old time's sake.

Also, and interestingly enough bolts had LoS during the whole thing not just at the end but I know that's what you meant. Tricksy.... and I wonder how that was calculated without a constant check running.

Was your wizzie Myth? I played Kabober (given to me at lvl 45 or 50 or something by Kringe) on I guess it was 2.0 with 8in unb'd (one of my favorite guilds actually). My retirement largely stems from losing that wizard to the box wipe. I just didn't feel like that kind of time dump/investment all over again. I had a brief lvl 1-55 stint on Faceliss until Lord Kringe took him over lol after one fateful "hey you still got that SK?" text. Guess he got tired of blowing every man woman and child up with that crazy mage of his.

Err 3.0, 2.0... shite it all runs together. I definitely had it out wizard vs healer classes burning reagents and manastoning.. I think some druid (maybe Lasher?) was like "WTF HOW ARE YOU ME" and I was real confused but he meant how I dispelled (casting dispel while dot was half way done casting) and zoned and rebuffed like him.

Now that I think of it... why do I want this kind of pvp, I just do lol.

Also, if we're going to get real classic... are we going to have insta click items refresh spell gems? ; )

... Fixed classic? Or true classic?

<Engencvay is mineway> guild? Where everyone was named Jontik, Kabober, and other pet names?

Nice putting trash players together with their trash posts. Killed these buffoons twice in a row in Guk then they come back a 3rd time with DA train and still didn't kill anyone.

Yeah Ago I remembers ya from when necros and mages at lvl 24 took over on wizard's until like 44 or 49. I remember you said "look at your resists" after casting malise. I was like how is this fair at all!? Definitely something that stood out for me.

Going to be interesting who finds their way over into this thing.

Yeah Wehr I also remember message boards have blocks when I get tired of reading absolute drivel.

That's the 3rd time you've linked that screen shot. A train in LGuk resulting maybe from PvP (don't know or care)? I dunno, who woulda thunk it?

Adios to that broken record of retardation => user CP->edit ignore list -> Wehrmacht=> forums = better.
