Default Re: Hook Arrow on Rooted Mobs

lol @hitz.

Another one who says wow is better but still play eq2. Weirdo heh ?
wow= cartoon , eq2 = realistic world. EQ2 in high definition is way better than wow in graphics and animations.

So yeah, if you dont like eq2, dont play on it, nobody put a gun on your head for that.

spamming the thinkered mem-wipe to beat othysis was absolutely an exploit - which is the context in which the item was brought up. that method was spam-resetting the encounter to re-start the encounter timer to prevent the script from progressing. i.e. the portal opening and the adds spawning.

i'm pretty sure that circumventing part of the encounter by fooling it into thinking it's starting again constitutes an exploit.

As long as aggro was bounced around the portal would never open, with or without the item. It was easier to just burn down the named anyways, but I don't remember seeing any post by a dev stating that bouncing aggro on Orthas was an exploit.

I thought no adds popped as long as aggro kept bouncing. It's been a while, and even longer since we used the aggro bounce.

The hook arrow is ok. The problem is in the fucking lame rooted encounters. Nichok maybe is fun a bit we didnt even try to use the arrow on him, but all other like Leviathan... oh if not the graphics i would refuse to go there more than once. The top idiotism encounter Myliex will remain the same stupid shit with hook arrow or without its no challenge no fun and lame change the encounters first.

What drugs was taking the person making a flying mob be rooted in the air? I wont be surprised if there be some flying fish encounter or unerwater avatar with scuba gear in the future

I play both, guess im a weirdo...

If it wasent for my guild, I would of been done with EQ2 along time ago.

Its not my problem that SoE doesnt know how to keep ppl playin there piece of shit, and with the new response toward Rangers and Arrows, makes me wonder if anyone will still play there Rangers.
