Look in the upper-left corner: see where it says "Project 1999: Classic EverQuest"?

That "classic EverQuest" part is never going away, no matter how many people complain. If you don't like how the alchemy items ... or any tradeskill items ... or anything else ... work, then you should blame the Verant developers back in '99. The goal of this place (except when it comes to Enchanters) is to make the game like it was back then.

Except p99 is far far from classic there were no FTE's back in 99 or 2000, but Zumok is right about them having a patch every week, and they did eventually add those back

To what??? I've been sitting here over an hour waiting for a mob to spawn that instantly runs to his despawn point less than a minute away... This is not a great change lol

This. If increasing respawn is needed to prevent undesired behavior, that is fine. The fact that he de-spawns so quickly now makes the Coldain Ring quest significantly more difficult. Is it possible to eliminate the de-spawn mechanic to compenate?

If the timers reflect what they were in the classic era then I would not expect them to be changed.

The Coldain ring quest should be significantly difficult. Ring 10 is an awesome item.

Agreed, however my assumption is it was changed to stop folk from turning in hundreds of Invasion Plans for faction farm.

THis resulted in me losing a ring 8 turn in once, as someone turned in like 30+ and I got trained and Gloradin was killed.

Ry`gorr messenger respawn time was increased based on research. If you feel that it is bugged, please create a bug thread and it can be further discussed.

Damn don't know why I never though of this, I saw someone that was mass spawning and AoEing them all dead, was always wondering why, I thought he was farming orc fang earrings and frozen orbs to sell. Faction makes a lot more sense.

Although the invasion plans are not lore so its still possible to do that strat, just takes a bit more time to farm the inputs.

There's only one and even with short spawns it was only 10 faction per turn in. Any sort of organized giant killing activity in GD would churn out better faction.

Or turn up at ring war during double faction weekends.

I am not able to get in. Error says Globa Load.txt needs to be updated. Any ideas on how to fix this?
