  • Wizard: Have an overpowered damage shield (with talents), massive AoE for weak stuff, good dps for normal, and root/nuke for toughies. Pretty good on utility too - portal/evac. Oh, and invisibilty, since XP comes too fast and killing stuff without …
  • You certainly don't get the full 30days on your old account. However I've read recently on the official forums, and they seemed pretty authoritative, that you do get 14 days extended playtime by adding/registering the key from the RoK all-in-one pac…
  • That seems a pretty new graphic card to me, and fps figures are pointless without indicating the resolution - 1680x1050 versus 1024x768 would make a massive difference. I think the issues are bugs in the way the game configures against specific card…
  • Originally posted by lordsn0w Originally posted by elondor I'm still waiting for all the apologies I demanded when I told everyone this game blew donkey dorks... but no.. people who never even played the game defending it with their life cause it ha…
  • I got the whole 700MB in less than 2 hours, and that's here in Hong Kong. Their patcher is good. It's just a shame the game runs at about 5% of the speed of EQ2/LOTRO/WOW etc. on my system !
  • About 4 weeks ago the Rep. for standard quests was increased enormously (typically from 100 to 250 for example). There's also now all the Exodar quests (which will also ripple over to other factions). Accordingly it will be quiet easy to achieve exa…
  • I believe about 3/4, that is 6 million of the subscribers are on Chinese and other local language servers in East Asia. That leaves only about 2 million for US and Europe. Someone might need to correct me though if I've remembered wrong.
  • Hmmmm, when you say ROCKs, I guess you mean it will sink like..... Personally it makes me think WOW is lag/queue free, and EQ2 has perfect customer service. This game should not have been released in the state it is in.
  • Best: Still to find it. Worse: It's been released about 6 months too early - it just doesn't have the features expected in an online RPG, and many of those it has are just not working properly/efficiently. The lack of solo content after 20 minutes c…
  • I quit EQ2 because: 1. Lousy customer service. Servers being taken down without notice. Inability to get in game assistance with bugs. 2. Bugs, Bugs and more bugs. Even after 6 months there are still loads of typing errors. Descriptions that say …
  • There's one thing they're changing very little - all the bugs and incorrect descriptions ! Even the most trivial of fixes are unfixed after 7 months.
  • The lag is probably not as bad as I made out. It's almost as if there are 1 or 2 buggy servers, and if your instance is placed on one of those it will be *really* bad, otherwise fine. It could be that leaving the instance, and re-entering is enough …
  • Lag 10 .... Hmm, maybe before launch this was true... Just suffered unplayable lag - 3 secs response every 20 or so - and for over 20 mins. It could get worse since I'm on the european servers and the UK edition isn't on sale until tomorrow in a lo…
  • agreed - totally incompetently run. After a 6 week holiday I was going to re-subscribe this evening, but their billing pages !!! have been down for the past two hours. As for their "honour" system - I guess it's a bit like Iraq - kill the poor weak…
  • Gosh, what amazes me, is that after all these comments, no one has realised that its 28 days, and not 30 days. What will be interesting, and be real grounds for complaint, is if those who subscribe in March only get 30days and not 31. Hopefully Bli…
  • Ever come across a savory cake ? Pie wins ! Cakes are too sweet, pie's are much more versatile.
  • Originally posted by Hashman Seeing as no-one bothers reading EULA here is extract from EQ2 9. You may not use any software to modify the Software to change Game play. You may not create, facilitate, host, link to or provide any other means through …
  • As I write this, the down time including roll back is going to be over 36 hours. My characters had no exp debt. Unfortunately I can't cancel my account, since I already have ! Great graphics, poor everything else, ending at customer and technical s…
  • I suspect with just 512Mb Ram you will get slow zone loading times (some group mates are taking 30 secs to a minute - compared with 5 secs or less for me). Also, with a below max-spec machine you don't know if it's your machine or the server which i…
  • Originally posted by Noubourne What can you do with 5 or 8 char slots that you can't do with 4?I seriously don't get it. There are four basic class archetypes, you can try one of each. If you level a swashbuckler to 12 and decide you don't like it…
