I actually thought it was later than that. Regardless of when it happened, you're missing the point, he was never supposed to be killable regardless of the timeline of when he died. Yet nonetheless, he died. Rathe wasn't supposed to be killable and it was changed maybe 1 or 2 days before it would have died in its "unkillable" form.

If you honestly think that Sky should be finish-able before Kunark due to your "superior skill" then I don't know what to tell you.

I wish I could find the post where a dev even pointed out exactly how insanely hard the last couple islands are supposed to be but it's possible that it was in the rants section so I can't do a proper search for it.
There are a lot of strategies and knowledge that came about long after Sky was released (hell even after Kunark) that you can apply back to original EQ and make content there doable when it previously wasn't.

Once again chicanery putting in his 2 cents for some extra attention. Basically he has no idea what hes talking about but absolutely must feel noticed.

We're not going to tell you about the bosses in sky chicanery, why dont you focus on what Divinity is doing instead of always trying to involve yourself in other people's business. You try to be all passive in your troll attempts but its not fooling anyone, you're absolutely the worst troll on these forums. I'd prefer random anontards to watching you post your idiotic commentary to the world.

You are correct. After is the key word here.

There was a lot of content designed to be only doable after future releases to the game. You can see it regularly throughout EQ history. Added levels, added AA's, added spells, disciplines and skills and of course gear. Much of this content was doable after the fact, not within a week of its release.

Your examples do not prove that content should be easier now based on strategies.

Adults are conversing Gwence.
Go to R&F.

Or feel free to add something to the conversation. But you are, by definition, being a troll at this point.

Sounds about right, then we killed it.

You seriously underestimate the benefit of hindsight - including all strats used on all mobs throughout EQ history. Shit, I don't think anyone even did a CH chain in classic - it took time to come up with that stuff.

Strats, knowledge, and information don't go away/not get used just because the emu server hasn't reached the point in the game they were "discovered" on live. I still remember the vague spawn layout of Velks spiders from all the time I spent there, just because it hasn't been released on this server yet doesn't mean the knowledge can't be present. I never said anything about added levels, AA's, discs, spells, or gear because they aren't necessary in this case.

I've intentionally left out exact strats and while I could post specific examples as to what knowledge/strats/information "discovered" post-Sky that can be applied to pre-Sky (or in Sky in this case I suppose) and has made previously "impossible" bosses possible but I'm not going to because that's most of what makes EQ raiding fun - using your brain to solve a problem as opposed to just reading a guide that tells you the exact steps to take a mob from 100% to dead like was available for every single mob in WoW.

Im not going to add something when you're involved in the conversation because you're a retard and all you want is for us to detail out our strategies so you can attempt to critique them or something. You dont know enough about this game to critique anything, probably dont even know enough about your own class to critique that.

Notice how you are the only Non IB/DA person that has gotten involved in sky disputes/discussions. Hell, even WI people arent getting involved and they have at least been up in the zone.

So once again I'll say, worry about your own business please. No one cares about your "re-cap" postings like you're some 8 year old having to say out loud "let me get this straight" every 10 seconds.
