At this point, I don't care what they do with the servers

I'm so here for a Kunark only server. Or just let me roll Iksar at classic launch, lock us all on Continent with no softskins. Shit, I'd be happy with a server that just started at Kunark launch on the normal timeline. Let us experience that new server rush with no twinking as Iksar. That's classic enough.

no

Extra spell slots is not QoL, it's a change to the balance of the game. The 8 slot limit is a tactical factor.

Custom UIs, spell sets, pet window, extra spell slots... those come to mind. Is that too much to ask or does that boggle the purist mind too much?

I'm good with all of those other than spell slots. But I still wonder if you start with those QoL improvements where do you stop.

Fine, no extra spell slots. Good now? Or should the P99 team only create what the Purists want?

Anything else? Perhaps we should be forced to play with 56K connections?

The entire goal of the project was classic Everquest. It seems like you don't want to play classic eq, and that's fine. No one is forcing you to.

There's a new TLP server every year with all the QoL you are wanting.

I see, so you don't want any QoL features. And you believe they should only keep the servers and/or server features currently available. So, basically no new servers is what you want. Correct?

Myself, I would love to have things like guild managment gui's, etc, etc. Otherwise, stuff that actually changes the balance of the game I can do without. *There* is a separation between QOL changes, and fundamental gameplay changes. I would love graphical uplift, QOL changes, etc.

QoL can be a slippery slope. How do you define it? Should there be no XP loss on death? No corpse recoveries? Pets can zone with you and remain through invis/ivu? Server wide chat channels? 'Mail' items and coin to players/Auction house? No more spell research or dropped spells, just buy them all at a npc?

What about instancing for every zone?

Lets not pretend that P99 is some pure chaste classic experience, server management has made TONS of subjective, opinion based changes to mechanics based on their feelings of what they FEEL is classic spirit (rooted dragons, life tap nerf, etc etc).

If we're going to change things in that manner, then why not do things that are truly in the classic spirit, like fixing bugs to classic items or mechanics that were fixed during Luclin? These would be obvious changes that would have been done in era if the devs had the time to do so.

Hell, I'd be happy with a shared bank slot and buff timers

[Toxigen]

How about some DoT damage?
