Leveling and other starting questions.
I started a SK last night, but I don't ever remember it taking 3 hours to get to level 3. Is this leveling speed the same to 50? It seems like it's almost double what it used to be IMO.
Also, I've read melee is terrible to play due to some wrong calculations - is this still true and am I screwed trying to solo? Lastly, do SK's have lifetaps on here? I can't find if they do or don't anywhere, but I noticed the pets were blue and not green, so it's somewhat changed. Thanks! | ||

Yah leveling is WAY slow on Classic - plus SKs & Rangers have a 40% penalty to experience (since they are hybrids). I assume this is the same for Paladins as well.
Melee is apparently borked - although I don't know what exactly the problem is. Either way, Nilbog said they are working on a solution for it. And SK's should have exactly the spells they had during classic. Here is a list: http://web.archive.org/web/200105311...s.asp?Class=SK | ||

P.s. Here is the thread on the details about the Melee problems. Check it out and put your input in so it can get fixed!

I heard someone say the taunt button doesn't work - is this correct? Also, is there a breakdown of classes somewhere? I'm torn between a SK and a Wizard, but with leveling so slow, I'm not sure which to play at the moment.

In all honesty, spamming taunt is the worst thing one can do - to taunt most effectively, taunt should only be used when aggro is lost, and only then. A problem may lay in classic weapons being much lower dps than we remember, combined with varying resist rates on this server. All in all, I think taunt probably works, it just seems to be affected by multiple factors. -- As for break down of the classes, probably eq.castersrealm or something is your best bet for a good class overview. Use the waybackmachine (google it) for best results on this server. | |||

although melee's are somewhat in a 'bad spot' on here, levelling is almost identical to the initial release of EQ back in 99. tbh, this suits me fine unlike typical eq and wow servers that are out there atm where u hand an item in and gain 5 levels lol. Salute the good old days !

Does anyone have a handy chart or link to the EXP penalties for races/classes?
I found this: Halflings get a 5% bonus, Ogres 15% penalty, Trolls and Iksar 20% penalty; Barbarians might have a 5% penalty. Rogues and Warriors have a 5% bonus. But is that correct? I thought Evil's got a neg no matter what, therefore a Troll SK would have a large penalty? | ||
