Disabling target rings is basically a "fuck you" to newer, low level players.

Sure you've got your stupid club as big as you want it, I guess.

Also, this is an imbalanced nerf to short melees (dwarves, gnomes, and halflings). We have to look up at flashing names now.
Holy shit you suck at EQ if target rings actually make a difference.

Yea target rings don't rate in my top 5 UI features, or anywhere close.

Gimme Extended Target Window, Health of Targets Target, Delegate Main Assist, Guild window, or raid window over that crap :P.

Meh. The target rings were nice to have as it made sorting out mobs a little easier but it's no big deal now that they are gone. I managed to do quite well in '99 with lashing names and will do well now.
There are a lot of nice aspects to the game which are being stripped away in the name of being classic and I am completely fine with them all. This is, after all, a server which aims to be as classic as possible. I would imagine that linked items will eventually be phased out, old model pets will be enforced, spell book watching to med up to a certain level etc. will be figured out and implemented. I will miss certain things but hey, the plan has always been to make the server as close to classic as possible so we know what to expect..

I don't really care about the rings but removing spell sets is really frustrating. It's cruel to remove spell sets after enabling them, my spellbook was in disarray and I had instead organized spells via spell sets. Also as an enchanter you have way more useful lines than most other casters, swapping sets in the middle of combat was commonplace and now it's much harder to do. Most of the other casters never have any reason to do this.

I play a shaman and an enchanter - probably the 2 classes hit hardest by this. Spell sets were nice but an organized spell book and /book ## buttons are easy enough to adjust to.
