General Category / General Discussion / Re: How soloable is ez server?

EZ is not solo friendly. Is it fun? Depends on your play style. There are many friendly people who are happy to help newbies get past certain content; however, it's not solo friendly, and you'll always have to rely on other people. If you're at all tempted to roll your own server, I would say that EZ is one of the essential experiences you need before attempting one of your own. Trevious started here (and still posts here from time to time) before eventually rolling his own server (another of the essential experiences, Storm Haven). (Even though I'm dabbling with the server code, I have no illusions that my attempts will be as fun as either of the two mentioned. Also, just so that I don't leave anyone out, most of the preferred and legendary servers are essential experiences; almost everything is patterned off one of these. A few of the new guys appear to be attempting some unique ideas; and only time will tell if any of us are patient enough to bring the ideas to life ;-) )

if some of the items were changed to be no-rent combinations, then you could rent out armor. players would then lose the armor when they log out. you'd then have to make it cheap to make these no-rent items.
I'd still rather see class balancing before crafter's guild improvements =P

From reading the forums, I get the impression that some classes are intentionally useless (Druids, Shaman, Enchanters, Bards), some are way underpowered, and some are glitched (Zerker epic, from what I've been told).
1) Which classes do you all think are broken and why 2) How would you recommend this class be fixed 3) Realistically, will Hunter fix said class 4) (other useful information you think pertinent to a productive conversation)

personally, I always just look for the DLL it tells you its missing and download that from a free website. Just drop the file inside the eqgame folder, and problem solved (as far the DirectX issue)

Zerker if you want pure DPS
BST otherwise. The reason a BST is a great add is the combination of slowing and DPS. When the mobs hit less fast, your existing heals will keep up better. You just have to remember to recast the slow spell onto your warder (less maintenance than a dedicated slower).
This is probably what I'm going to do for my 3rd

General Category / Cleric / Cleric or Pally for boxed healer?
|
on: July 20, 2011, 12:02:06 pm

From what I gather, there are no cleric mains on this server. I find this sad, because I loved playing a cleric main on live years ago.
Either way, if i recall, Pallys have the group heal proc and seem to be able to work well as both healer and dps for boxing the early levels (1-70).
Are Pally's always a good 2nd box or is there a point at which an SK should grab a Cleric for the 2nd box?
(Also, can you make it to endgame with just a 2 box or do you have to bump up the number of boxes?)

General Category / Quest and Guides / Do FG/CG Quest is a lot like being George Bush looking for WMDs

If I fight the same guy in the same spot for enough years, I ought to find the WMDs necessary to prove to the American people we're not stealing Iraqy oil.... - GW Bush and FG/CG Questers
Seriously, several hours in the same camp for the chance at the right spawn with the right item seems a little ridiculous. Up the drop rate to 100% and let people get through these quests, dependent solely on one's ability to google it.
(For the record, I'm playing off the stereo type of President Bush. I neither stand for nor against the man. When you respond, please share your frustration with the hours of wasted time camping.)

To the devs/owners of the server: First, thank you for all of your hard work. Despite my frustration at not being able to use certain zones, I appreciate everything I can see =) Second, I posted something similar on Emu on this thread http://eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=32923One of the developers has a few suggestions, on how to support the UF client from the server code. He makes it sound like it's a trusted way to support multiple clients. Thoughts?
