Pathing is so screwed and this is what we're going to fix?

Makes sense.

At around 23 minutes in this video the original spell developer, Geoffrey Zatkin, talks about how from the start they had planned enchanters to be a uniquely powerful class. Further on at 30 minutes he speaks more specifically about how the charm spell. ( "Charm was always going to be powerful...")

Torven thinks Zatkin misunderstood his own code, making an argument from authority that Zatkin must have mistakenly said CHA influenced charm duration when asked by the community in 1999. But do you get the impression after watching the interview that Zatkin would have been wrong about the charm spell?

No, you really don't. Zatkin seems like a guy who spent hundreds of hours just planning spell mechanics, getting feedback and suggestions from other devs and Brad before programming it all in. He's not just some random EQ dev prone to false memory.

What a whiny, self-absorbed crybaby you are OP. All over a minor change that might not happen for months on end and probably will make barely a dent in your precious enchanter class power level.

Thanks for the tutorial threads in the beginner section though, I'm sure no one would ever be able to figure out how to play a chanter again without those threads after you leave us all forever.

Sorry for your enchanter hate

my biggest problems with p99 are

1. Random crashes I can't seem to fix
2. Pathing Issues

That's pretty much it.
Game is pretty fun /smile
