    Question - Mage damage in 2024?

    On my toons the mages damage once maxed are still better than wizards for average non named dps. That being said they were not well before maxing aa. I wish I could tell you which aa it was that helped the boost but sadly not sure.

    Question - Whats the Best DPS Class out there right now?

    Since I rarely camp named camps once my characters are geared my definition of dps would be sustained without burns. For me that is my mages and rogues with my monks and beasts and the rest all close to each other but a little lower. Zerker and Rogue are at the top on burns with my Wizard...

    Problem - Cannot see MQ Overlay windows post DX11 patch

    I just found one I think its fraps. Got rid of it and all my ctwn and overlay stuff returned.

    Question - nontanking warrior

    The quick answer is yes. If you are using Kissassist or borrow a ini from the site will probably have to comb through conditions if it has it and make sure taunt isn't getting mashed. Before I got the ctwn plugin and was leveling my warrior with SK tanking I noticed that a lot of the...

    Question - New expansion launch plans

    I stay in old expansions and level and aa my group till max usually. I might sneak in with the rogues and explore the zones and scope out lonely camp spots. If all the zones are open and unlocked depending on the expansion I will take my group to the tier 2 or top zone and find a empty...

    Question - What is "Very Vanilla" exactly?

    The best advice I ever got was to start off with a minimal set of plugins. You can have a team up and running with very few but the required ones installed. Rgmercs works great as does kissassist. Next step is to learn where the ini are for whatever you are using and to learn to alter them to...

    Discussion - what is your least favorite activity in EQ (i.e. HAs, Quests, TS, etc..)

    For me is missions or questing. I love the mindless killing. Look up what gear off named I might like....Go keel him for hours ill it drops. If zone has more than 12 I go for some other loot. Once team has all the group stuff I want I max level and aa of any toons that aren't. If all are...

    Discussion - How long did it take you to get comfortable with the tools here?

    I started with hardly anything plugin wise always reading and lurking wondering if I should try another plugin or something. Slowly adding then asking myself why I didn't do it sooner. Probably took me 3 or 4 years and I still am not a expert on anything. That being said having less to start...

    Problem - Framerate keeps going to 30

    Thanks Sic I would probably never found that unless it was by accident. Once again you have made the Galaxy safe for humanity!

    Problem - Framerate keeps going to 30

    Ok I feel like a idiot here but am going to ask this question in hopes to resolve a situation. Try to be somewhat gentle. ok when mq not loaded my framerates are fine 200 plus on all toons. When I load mq goes to 30 and I have to reset the slider bar for max frames per second in game to max...

    Discussion - Why Do You Love Bards?

    My bard is as smooth as Michael Jackson but sings like David Lee Roth. Once I made a bard and got it to level I can't be without her. Faster pulls with my main sk with selos and the dps boost for the rogues and or whatever toons I have in the group. I rarely pull more than 3 which is no probs...

    Discussion - Ridiculous / Funny / Weird Guild Names

    Fluffy Bunny Inc used to be on Cazic I think many moons ago. Not sure if that would qualify for a man card revocation or extra points but it always cracked me up to see it.

    Problem - Unable to Login 5/17/23 on patchday

    Everquest is up but the developers need time to update the Mq stuff and make sure nothing is crashing and everything is good for release. If you have it loaded or load it that message you got will appear until they come out with Redguides update. . I always forget and have Redguides loaded...

    Discussion - Most nostalgic, non raid zones?

    I liked the hole...camped in there for days. Wall of Slaughter has memories for me since it was the first place I ever grouped. Soloed my sk to 63 or so. Proceeded to get tossed like a rag doll because somebody trained us with Shadowhunter.

    Problem - FPS problem - game unplayable - upgraded video card from a 2090ti to a 4090

    That is like running a top fuel dragster on a 200 ft track. I am agreeing with the posts above it might be overlooking eq as a game and or a power saving thing. I had a 2070 super and according to fraps it was worse than my old ass 660 ti. I had to make sure the eq graphics settings werent...
