I try to recast when mobs get to a certain level of health but it's obviously not efficient. I've been avoiding going the GINA route.
I do this with some things, but I'm really not interested in the buff tracking ATM. Even though I'm a Shaman and the buff tracking thing would greatly benefit my class, I couldn't find a group if I tried because I'm on blue and that's really just how it is.

I would just like to know when my DoTs are wearing off I guess. Because counting to 48 in my head every time I cast Venom of the Snake gets old after a while. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I guess it depends on what you're doing in EverQuest and what your experience level is, but I think this game is more intense than other MMOs in the market. Like on WoW I don't even have to know what I'm doing, I just run through content and button mash and follow exclamation points.

On P99 I do research for hours finding out weird camps, and then go there and have to min. max, running multiple stopwatches, and not being able to take a 2 minute piss break because I might die. I consider the way I play EQ to be kind of hardcore compared to other MMOs I play.

But at the same time, you can argue WoW is harder if you are playing at the absolute high end. There's a lot of pointless grinding that you have to do daily to even be mediocre. High end raiding guilds are extremely competitive and cutthroat. WoW PVP can be really difficult etc. AFK play-style is not really viable when compared to EQ (which is actually something I like about EQ, being able to like, just hang out, watch some YouTube, kill a mob every 6 minutes or so).

I'm making meatloaf today NGL. Using graham crackers instead of bread crumbs because I have this weird recipe I want to try.

You might not get arrested but it will slowly but inevitably destroy the game for you. Every buff will be optimally cast. What's that? 15 minutes left on everybody's buffs? better med early. No more close call, no more surprises, just meticulous execution of your few tasks. You'll eventually find yourself indistinguishable from a robot. Why are you even doing this? You've been in the same group doing the same thing for hours staring at timers.

Remember getting lost and stumbling into a new NPC? Don't worry that won't happen. Only the direct route for you. The third party gamer.

You will never have true classic environment unless somehow you populate the new server with 75% or more players completely new to EQ - people who also never played wow seriously or any other mmo games released after 1999.

Stay strong my friends!

Seriously: I thought meatloaf was something our moms made to punish us. Why would someone choose to make it (with graham crackers, bread crumbs, or anything else?) [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
