I remember back in like 2002 pulling as a 60 rogue with throwing daggers. Sometimes I would outright ASSASSINATE the mob on pull (the lower level frogs, I dont remember their names).

Zaphod42 posted:Yes that's definitely true. All mobs have an agro radius and they also have a "call for help" radius, I'm not sure if its the same length. Their level versus your level has an effect on this too. So maybe slightly lower level mobs you're getting away with solo pulling but then higher level ones are calling for help? Not sure. Or maybe its just a matter of being sliiiightly too close together or slightly far enough apart? I play a rogue, so take this with a grain of salt. With sneak engaged you can avoid having mobs who have their backs to you engage. So pull best you can - then run out past aggro range of their return point and FD. upon getting up get sneak engaged asap as they start to walk away and tag the closest mob to you. The other mobs which all have their backs to you should not engage. Of course be weary, with sneak you are slow. If a mob hits you and disengages your sneak any mobs still within social aggro range may re-engage. If you have a rogue with you he can help here quite a bit with sneak and a bow to get a single as they all begin to walk back.

Would any goons on blue have experience kiting Renux from the rogue epic quest? I still need to grab the book from hate (died trying awhile back due to being impatient and getting caught during a full spawn) but that should not be too hard - just a question of who still raids the old world planes these days? And about those planes, I have yet to raid one of them. I feel like I am really missing out having joined the server so close to Velious. I wish Re-cycle server would come soon.

I just got an app. invite to Asgard in blue a little while ago. They seem very relaxed letting people join and leave raids as life permits. I am only a level 51 Rogue working on my epic (no plat to mq) so I am unfortunately not able to make many raids since I am so low. Other day someone won HoT Chain pants for only 1dkp point. I feel like I am so behind.

A raid guild may accept your 52 Wizard since they are generally a sought after but less played class.

So i had posted in the old thread if anyone was able to help me getting up to plane of hate to nab the book for my rogue epic and I cant remember the name of the gentle goon who did. However, I died so i need to get up there again! This time I wont venture in unless its somewhat clear / being raided. My in game name is Marchand or Tibmit on blue if anyone is brave / willing to lend a hand. Naturally ill provide stone & tip.

Thanks everyone who replied about getting my rogue butt to hate. Since I died on the last attempt to nab the book solo and saw a decent number of mobs who saw through my hide I decided that I felt too squeamish to try again. I am now camped in the southern corner most raids camp to break the zone. I occasionally hit a /who all hateplane macro but I guess since velious is out theres not much reason to raid hate anymore?

Before I get my hopes up too high, what exactly has actually been said/promised by P99 staff? Sirken - some lead gm dude - mentioned it off-the-cuff on a twitch cast and it generated more excitement than I believe they anticipated. It'll probably be a few years down the road sadly.

What happens if you get aggro on something you would not normal have due to an illusion if you click it off? Does the mob stay aggro until you zone?

Dirt posted:i joined "anonymous". My 51 rogue is in Asgard. If you want a raiding guild that tracks dkp they are good. Certainly more geared towards 60 than low 50s though. Haven't been able to join them lately since I am camped in plane of hate for my epic waiting for a window when spawns are low.

Pillow Armadillo posted:Anyone got experience leveling a wizard? Just hit 27 and feeling the exp wall start to creep in. Is it worth the effort? Wizards will always have a tough time grouping for experience. If you don't have regular buddies you group with and prefer to not solo all time then it is probably not for you. That being said, there is always demand for wizards in raiding - just not group exp grinding. But getting those few levels to port for 'donations' may be worth trying out just the same as mentioned above.

I wish the epic changes were in earlier. I started a rogue as my first char and it has been really irritating trying to compete with rage bringer rogues. In related news, I snuck through a fully spawned hate and nabbed my book of souls.

Also I want to tag along and help you for the sword drop, which is one of the better off-hand aggro proc weapons in the game outside of poopsock raiding. Sure the more the merrier. My ign is Marchand (rogue) but I have been playing my necro a lot lately (Tibmit)

Problem with the goon guild is kind of the same issue any 'leveling' guild faces. Once characters approach the last ten levels there is a tendency for them to peel off and join some pubbie raid type guild.

Last night I completed my epic! Although it is the rogue epic this was my first character I created on p99 a few months ago so 30k is still an awful lot of money for me so purchasing it out-right was never an option. It feels good to both have it (and not be disrespected for being a 51 rogue without an epic) and to have done it the classic way (solo fully-spawned hate sneak and all)! Now off to earn XP. I got a Sebilis key earlier this week with a group of friends. At what level could I reasonably get groups there? I have particularly fond memories of wasting my teenage summer days grinding in Sebilis.

I am sad to hear Sebilis isn't really the place to be. I remember on live during this time on Xegony there were usually a few pickup groups there around the clock. I would prefer camping in a single zone for an extended period of time to minimize running around.

I was 98% into 53 when double xp hit on friday. From Friday night to Sunday night I got from there to 14% into 55. How does 55 compare to 54? I know 54 is often complained about but to me it did not seem much different than 55. Granted, the double xp weekend and the over crowdedness makes it difficult for me to judge at the moment.

This had been posted on the p1999 forums and quickly deleted from redguides.com:quote:We are 99% certain that the P99 staff are lying to players about their RMT detection methods. Last month, it was "Your seller is ratting you out!" as seen here: Never heard of them before so I take it with a grain (bucket) of salt but Greengrocer is also cross linking it in Reddit (I know hes very butt hurt atm).

If I didnt have buddies who played on blue i'd probably give red a more serious try. The other reason I played more on blue is p1999 has been a nostalgia trip and blue seems more in line with the classic experience for me than red (despite non-classic game play elements, such as chardok proxies and swarm kiting). I must say though, I am tempted to give red a more serious shot and have been wanting to recreate my magician.
