Did they ever smooth out catching up to the pack in Shards of Dalaya? Last time I tried to get into it I had literal years of grinding and whatnot ahead of me if I wanted to do anything even remotely current

Does anyone know if pets in SoD can tank for players? I don't particularly want to scour the forums for hours trying to figure it out and I also don't really want to install it if I can't play a bst with my pet tanking for me

I am picturing a future utopia where I can run a campaign of that wonky EQ Pen and Paper game using kickass EQ minis that actually look like the in-game models realistically I'd just buy a bunch and set them up around my desk because who the hell wants to play EQ D&D

is there a good way to get actually usable third-person camera on TAKP? modern MMO camera handling has ruined the old eq clients for me
|
# ¿ Nov 9, 2020 14:17 |

oof, I guess second question - I don't care if the camera swivels around my dude but I never found a way to both shoot it way far back or make mouselook faster when using the f9 behind-the-head 3rd person, is there a solution to this?

# ¿ Nov 9, 2020 20:23 |

I actually just messed with eqclient settings and the f9 camera zoomed out works better than I remembered after some settings fuckery, i'm not sure when i'm gonna give this a whirl but i'm definitely giving this a proper whirl

so slightly more derail regarding that TAKProject server - I tried to get zlizeqmap working with the luclin map pack but even after I jammed the maps into the proper folder it isn't picking up luclin zones, it looks like the problem is that the "ZoneData- The Al'Kabor Project" file doesn't have the luclin listings for anything but shar vahl and shadeweavers, can anyone that has this working just copy/paste the info so I can fix it without having to do it manually? edit: I found it in the forum post on the takp site, just in case anyone else has this issue here's a link to the thread: https://www.takproject.net/forums/index.php?threads/zlizeqmap-luclin-map-pack.12121/ blatman fucked around with this message at 06:01 on Nov 16, 2020 |

I wish there was a takp thread so I could post this there but this seems inactive enough that it won't annoy anyone - I clawed my way up from the newbie dirt and made it to 19 on a shaman on takp, farming the spiderling ruins in field of bone to afford spells and some garbage gear, this is pretty much perfect for the sort of game I was after but if anyone has a poison wind censer i'll farm spiderling silks for you in exchange. I think if I can nab one of those I can just cruise to 40 farming hill giants along the way to buy one of those clicky nuke bracers then level off of everfrost giants or something (seafuries in oot maybe?) to pay for torpor which will let me farm guardian wurms in skyfire at 60, this kicks rear end and it's going to continue to kick rear end

DisgracelandUSA posted:Torpor is a level 60 spell, sadly. yeah but it's expensive as hell so it's gonna take a bunch of levels to get enough plat to buy it, I figure if I specifically gear my route towards that end I can have a copy to scribe the moment I ding 60, then it's off to farm those skyfire gw's since I think they have the whole boss-spell-drop loot table from kunark

cmdrk posted:I usually two-box and play with some friends who are also two boxing. Boxing has ruined me and I can never go back to true box lol. I think two box is more common in raids but many people run three in the level grind game. honestly i'm pretty surprised about the prices, I farmed spiderling silks for a few days and basically decked myself out with plat for spells to spare, I just need to sell a few more stacks and I can get the last of my leveling gear then it's a straight shot to..40 I think? when it's time to snag a JBB and start grinding giants or whatever i'm probably going to pm you when i'm high enough level to use burning affliction 3 because that's gonna help a ton later on but if you see Fjonk running around feel free to shoot me some pro tips because I don't remember a goddamn thing about eq life in 2002 shirunei posted:Shoot me a PM if you ever get up to the mid 30's I play a trio like a couple hours a week to scratch the itch and never get to group with anyone. I'll do that for sure, i'm just playing 1 character though because I always wanted to level a shaman back in these days the old-fashioned way but never got around to it, my playtime is extremely strange though because I work graveyard shift but i'd have no problem with mangling my sleep schedule a bit for some eq groupage, in case you skimmed my post I mentioned earlier i'm ingame as Fjonk which is pronounced "Fjonk", however I am leveling very slowly so our groupage might take some time to get going

I wouldn't have been surprised if it just killed you and vaporized your corpse + gear back in those days, so i'd probably have expected that

Lakedaimon posted:My guild has been speculating that the test server is an ominous development, either another attempt to fix bad pathing in places like Kael (which usually results in worse pathing), or attempts to "solve" the train-out meta that apparently the GMs hate (git gud). i'm hoping mischief rules but p99 tuning to anyone who rightfully ignores live, mischief is a progression server where every loot mob drops random stuff from all the other similar level mobs and everything is tradeable. it was a buggy mess at launch with things like spite golems in hate dropping naggy/vox loot

hey does anyone know if there's anyone selling PoM coths on green these days? I occasionally have this urge to level a shaman, farm until my fingers fall off for torpor, then park him in plane of mischief and just derp around there indefinitely but I don't want to deal with having to actually raid ntov to get there and shamans aren't great for doing the ol' spicy pom run

milkman dad posted:If you want to tank but still want some agency around being able to solo content you might consider a shadow knight. You can be edgy and make an erudite or iksar shadow knight. If you roll an erudite be sure to add 5 to agility. Iksar have the benefit of being able to quest for greenmist. as an sk, is the lack of frontal stun immunity from not being an ogre going to be a big problem in practice? by the time I switched mains to shadowknight on retail the devs had given every tank stun immunity via an aa so I never really had to deal with it

I decided to make an ogre shadowknight, named fjonk on green server, gonna see how geared i can get from selling vendor trash to fund vendor diving expeditions near the blacksmithing trainer that is, after i spend several hours setting up the UI first edit: i screwed up and made a warrior, i'll fix it tomorrow

honestly that gnome necro bone knight strategy sounds hilarious but i'm just gonna do the same strat as human, maybe slightly less effective but i get a rad eyepatch now what I should have done was started in freeport because these sewers are a dumpster fire but I did luck out and get a cracked staff from my first mob, pawned it for all the good level 1 and 4 spells so when I have time to sit down and play later in the weekend I can just poopsock it for a few levels
