Default I played 2 yellow on FdP and wasn't impressed

but it was awesome to jump on my cleric and necro -nameless server and fart around a bit. Forgot how tricked out I had them. It wasn't enough to get me away from p99, I like the classic game play. I have my own server to rip thru and slash dragons when I feel the need.

P99 for ever!!

How do you figure overpowered?

I also don't read threads before asking questions that have been answered 30 times in said thread.

I'm finding it enjoyable. Granted its not 'true' classic and SOE had never intended it to be a P1999 style server. I'll give some credit to SOE for at least allowing people some free play time.

well SOE's EverQuest market is broad enough, where regaining even 1 month's worth of subscription fees, from Fippy and Vulak's population, was likely a large part of the plan to dish out free trials.

The point is that you aren't supposed to stay locked in the older expansions, as they can't truly replicate the environment of them with the amount of time/resources they have devoted to the project.

Currently, monk fists + mage pets are vastly overpowered (even more so than they were in classic).

Mana regeneration is way faster (you can bitch about this, but sitting at your screen for 10 minutes to meditate to full mana isn't fun or 'hard')

Spell levels are all screwed up, at some point in time they decided to let casting classes get spells every single level. Stupid decision imo but meh.

Spell data is OP. Minor Healing does 10-15 Health instead of just a base 10, etc. Nukes do more, DoTs do more.


Basically, Classic EQ, Kunark, Velious and Luclin will fall with ease because of these unbalanced issues. The true test will be what people vote on the unlocking. I'd expect it to be stuck in Classic for the people who want to 'relive' the classic days... until they realize that it really isn't and then they let it progress along.

I'd be totally in favor of it getting stuck in LDoN or GoD or PoP, cause those were some of the better later expansions once EQ evolved beyond an adventure game.

I'm a big fan of the P99 server, but really, who gives a fuck if someone else wants to have a server there way. I can't possibly imagine how that could be a good or bad thing. We do our thing, they do there's. From that post they seem to be much more rational than what I see here.
