I wouldn't notice until my whole 2nd group dropped dead from that hellish DS/DD/Dot/whatever the hell it does

You gotta dispel the DS 

I was referring to the source code.

Just the idea of changing variable declarations and all of the associated calculations makes me very very sad.

Not an issue of spikes (lag).

If damage gets too high, it does nothing. (Literally deals negatives or "no effect").
If mob HP gets too high (through buffs), it rolls over, mob has -1 hp (literally dies from ANY damage).

Right now, two of the bosses in T10 and the Xmas portals are nearly at the maximum value. It has to be done because the damage is sooooo high and the mob health has to be so high to compensate.

Is there a reason why HP/damage values are so astronomically high, whilst AC has stayed (relatively) low? Is it because it's easier to scale damage/HP comparatively to AC?

The fix for this long term is probably a combination of both scaling AC and HP/damage properly, so we don't get to a point in the future where this same thing happens again.

The invulnerability works in surefall, but not in nexus. I can't zone my warrior into nexus, because he gets stomped on right away because there is a pile of goblins at the zone in.

Fixed. It was the globalload.txt file edits I made per the optimization guide.

Thanks for the help guys!

What do you mean by skinny?

First time trying to zone into airplane. My main box loads just fine, but my other 5 (that are running from a different directory) crash upon zoning in. Subsequent attempts to zone in also result in crashes. I have updated zone files in both directories. Can anybody give me an idea of what might be happening?

Thanks!

I love that you guys take the time to make holiday events, but why make it so that only high levels can participate?

How does one access said event?

Does this also mean we'll have spell effects again? Ever since loading the last newest spell file, I can see no spell effects even though they are enabled in the game client.

I'd love to see either the original planes or PoP zones used more, those are some of my favorites, but I understand they aren't as fancy/large/in depth/whatever as some of the zones from newer expansions.

I second this 100000000 times. PoP raiding is where my fondest memories of retail EQ are from.

What is the difference between "scripted loot" and "loot table"?
