You might be biased. Though didn't think there were many marauders left after I farmed them for my necros skull cap.

There’s a p99 goons discord, and there def is a presence. Not much of a raiding presence. There’s always leveling groups going on both green and blue, moreso on green. Find a nice cozy guild.

Yeah Bone Knight is the name thought up by players for a melee necro using lifetaps, procs, and banshee aura to 'melee'

I personally don’t like boxing but without a community you kinda need it. Would be nice to have 1 box zones though, so there’s always somewhere to go where boxing isn’t the optimal way to play

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

not at all

Wow so I posted that comment about leaving Vanquish just before bed. By the time I woke up the comment was doxxed and distributed on Vanquish discord. Lmao Godspeed goon detective.

There are some decent people in the guild for sure but I'm not prepared to take the game as seriously as they do. To the point where it's weird.

wow, wtf. lol, what a bunch of wankers

are SKs any good at soloing? i dumped all my cash into my cleric but sitting at unrest LFG 24/7 loving blows dick so im considering iksar sk

If you want to solo as a melee, monk and SK. But they’ll be worse at soloing than say a shaman, necro, enchanter, mage, etc.

this necromancer is much more fun than the untwinked sk

i figure i will leave the sk for a future project

SK is just a necro that auto attacks more and doesn't have any of the fun spells to cast. Really casters are the way to go for an active playstyle. I love my monk but it's not exactly engaging play aside from pulling or doing splitting shenanigans, my shaman is much more fun.

After a certain point very early on, you get weaker compared to individual monsters too. That’s why it’s such a party focused game

You can solo with anything if you're patient and persistent enough. Sqid did a solo rogue to what, 60, awhile back?

That was just a challenge, 'soloing' usually means effective soloing, not pulling singles and hoping you don't die to the next dark blue con because you didn't regen up to 100%

I'm a fungi'd/epic'd monk and man, 54 sucks rear end. Couldn't imagine having to solo this level as a loving non-monk melee

I like p99, but I don't have a manastone there. The raid scene is alright, it's very classic (lots of staring at walls, CH chain, etc) and everyone is old now so it's kind of chill. On Green at least.

Quarm seems like a better 'touring' server, play a little, check all the boxes, get all the stuff. P99 has a lot of influence just because it's so stable. You can still sell bone chips in the EC tunnel and buy your starter weapons with them, a fungi tunic still costs an arm and a leg, etc.

well yeah it's stagnant by design, I started green on launch and its been quite the journey. the end result of these servers will always be that everyone collects at the top since there's no constant release of new expansions, but theres a good couple years every release where the gaming's good.

quarm goes to luclin though, which will be really interesting. but 5 years down the line it will be top heavy as well, depending on the population and whether it lasts

You’re not at full mana though. It’s 60hp for 20 mana. Its only infinite mana (in return for a lot of time) on clerics and people with clicky rune or free healing like druids and wizards. And they need to have those clickies on them as well. Even clerics arent great with it since most of their mana pool is on their gear, which still sits on their corpse after dying.

It’s an alt leveling toy but a really cool one
