Default Things have gotten better, I'll give Aeralik some props.

Well with the propagation nerf, the Vile Coil ring nerf, and about a half dozen other good fixes, I gotta say I'm pretty pleased with everything, with the possible exception of the writ system. Even the writ system is something I could live with, except I think exiles should DEFINETLY give updates, that seemed alittle silly to leave them out, but whatever.


I really think we need PvP Test server back up, and I'll probably always be alittle pissed about the ridiculous autoattacks I'm seeing. Nevertheless , we have been bitching about alot of shit, and almost all of it was addressed! Good Job SOE!

(if some of you don't think the devs read flames, you're smoking crack)

Remove classes from writs and PvP will be fun. Without that? Waste of time.

Face it, PvP in EQ2 is the most unbalanced and least thought out PvP you can get. EQ2 just wasn't meant to be a PvP game. And all those "fixes", I mean come on. Being able to shrink to a size of one pixel, add a bugged line of sight target system.. Then the Vile Coil ring, which was just stupidly overpowered even for PvE. All this just shouldn't have even happened in the first case. Then we have the stupidly overpowered Mythical weapons, added with the tons of crowd control proc gear that exists in RoK, plus mages with 50+% stoneskin. I could go on all day..

PvP in EQ2 will always be fucked up, and it's getting worse and worse every day. But you can't blame anyone for it, EQ2 just wasn't meant to be a PvP game in the first case.

In some months, after the new MMORPGs come out, the servers will be dead, even Nagafen will be.

EQ2 is a good game, but just needs some tweaks and resources. It is hardly dying on Nagafen.

I hope you don't have your hopes up for Warhammer, I've heard that is buggier than when Vanguard was released.

Good thing its still in beta then I guess...

Gotta agree w/ Dank though...suprisingly, and I guess I could learn to live with writs. Was out last night with a guild group and I think we finished ~4 writs each, woulda done more if all the DH kills woulda dinged us for FP kills but they didn't

Sure EQ2 is a good game, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people (including me) playing it since release. But there are 25 servers, whereas 3 of them are PvP servers. On the list of fixing and tweaking stuff the PvP servers are far down below the list. Nobody cares about that, same as for the german servers, which I left for PvP. They are totally fucked up too, have twice the serverdowns as usual and a fucked up locationization mixture between Englisch and German. They don't even have GMs there. Anyway..

And yes, I have hopes for Warhammer. I most definately won't quit EQ2 for it but will try it for sure.

Because right now, the strategy many guilds use for a contested mob, or to get to a raid instance, involves sitting in immunity and waiting for the other guild to get bored and leave. If immunity expired 5 mins after reviving or evaccing, we'd have more pvp.

More pvp - isn't that why we're all here in the first place?
