- All the classes on Project 1999 appear relatively balanced in my opinion (though unsure how they are at the high ends). But the early days had druids (droods) godlike while warriors could not hold aggro on anything since their taunt was just another button.

So remember when people want the complete "Classic" aspect, there are some things better left in the past!

Yup, that classic feel definitely transferred over.

endurance mechanics are non existant which is gravy for any melees heh

I remember falling through the game world and taking fall damage/death for it. This hasn't happened. Please fix.

To add classicness to the feel, you can do the following things on your own:



2b. For full immersion, put your modem on a programmable AC plug and make it disconnect at random times to simulate your sister or mom calling a friend in the middle of your quad kite making you die horribly.

4. Only use the full screen mode

5. Drink 4 large glasses of hard liquor such as whiskey or rhum every time before playing to simulate general cluelessness about the game and Norrath.

6. Send me $15 every month per account (PM for Paypal). This is critical for immersion.

7. Enjoy!
