Ahh cool, didn't know about that, thanks!

Only until they find out how to disable it, it's coming. dald and Ele probably have a petition started already

I bet you could play EQ blind. Not everybody has that impressive of neck beard.

Alt Casting confirmed best.

But man classic EQ was so good. Check out this nugget I just found:

If you are interrupted while trying to cast a spell that uses a component, you will no longer use that component. Jewelers should be very pleased with this change.

Better not move when casting Enchant Velium!

anyway you try to cast it should autostand to cast... like the command cntrl+X to camp it says you need to sit to camp out, it used to autocamp, like the command /camp or camp desk it ask you to be sitting to camp, that changed since last patch and its not classic

thats bc the component was consumed the second you cast the spell, not upon completion

I guess they made that simple swap with that update you posted

You realize if that gets implemented, the first stab at it will have the spell casts consuming stacks of reagents instead of only 1 right?

Yup it was a stupid change. We will get used to it in a couple days though. What a waste of time...

There's a reason everyone had sit in their hotbar in classic. This would be one of them.

No its so you could med after you got done casting. I had sit on my hotbar before this change. The thing that irritates me is the change serves no purpose. It does not make the game more fun or more challenging. Which imo should be the goal of any change.

I recall going directly from sitting to med during a raid to standing and casting my heals just by alt casting. I do not remember having to physically hit a stand key and then cast. Perhaps later in eq or something?
