Of course it could be that simple:



It's entirely possible (not to mention likely) that there is a constant variable in the P99 code, which is multiplied by a randomly-generated number between 0 and 1, and the result determines whether you succeed or fail at channeling. That's just how you give anything, in any game, an X% chance of success.

But also ... of course it might be more complex. I never claimed to have seen the P99 code (or even the stock EQ Emu code), nor was I submitting a pull request ... I was just making a casual claim in a forum comment.
Loramin can you just go create a megathread for your Enchanter opinions? Feels like anytime Enchanter is mentioned in any way whatsoever in any thread you just start doing this. I feel like you could go make your own post about it and just contain your pontificating to there rather than bringing it up elsewhere.

i agree with OP, especially as an iksar monk.

spend 100% of the time pulling nonstop. dont bother to roll on gems, because it takes 20 group kills for 1% exp. do this for hours, get 5% exp total. tired af. no loot. no time to talk because pulling constantly
That's fair. If you're expected to pull I can understand how grouping would seem way less fun. Chain pulling nonstop isn't the most fun activity

Soloing always sucks - Duo or Trio is a win
