I'm thinking around 15% from flying kick and closer to 35-40% from backstab. They're very different in their output purposes. One is meant for raw damage, and the other functions as an interrupt chance on top of DPS.

Honestly depends on the spell/era, I've noticed they've been a lot better about R1s in new eras replacing even R3s, but it wasn't always so. I'm usually prone to just upgrade and keep moving though, less to get lost in the sauce.

I came for the macros and stayed because the community interactions and nostalgia are amazing. I pop back up every year or two, and have always enjoyed this place. The creators, compilers, debuggers, testers, and those who post INIs all come together to make one heck of a great place. Guess what...

I picked up a laptop with a 5080 and 64 GB of ram. Just watching the news relating to Hard Drives, RAM, and AI demands was enough to make me pull the trigger, if nothing else, to have a capable backup if anything goes wrong. I fear we're about to enter the Dark Age of Technology if AI demands...

I highly recommend taking the plunge, it's life-changing for the mere QoL features. Beyond that, how far down the rabbit hole you go is a personal preference matter.

Once you get flagged for PvP, you set yourself up for a mainly solo lifestyle. You'll see LG as GMs/Guides Purple for anon/rp Blue is normal Rotating RGB names are the characters creation day (So if it's April 8th of last year you made the toon and logged it in today, you'd see your nametag...

Befallen Platinum Banker...... oh man.... that was huge at the time.

Easily one of the ugliest paintings, lol.

Will crash reporting be more function for tracking bugs to particular lines or their parent functions? Lua gets me super excited! I really appreciate everything you guys do and all the hard work. Cheers! LB

I sadly missed the EQOA days, as I was heavily involved with live at the time and didn't even know about its existence, despite owning a PS2!

LGuk mask on Selos, was in a group for almost 37 straight hours. And the group kept refusing to do a rotation on it, it seemed like every new guy that would join would get it first drop off rolls. I refused to sleep, determined to get this damn mask.

Veteran is one of those things that's invaluable, but is often neglected, because it's looked at as "Icing on the cake" by daybreak. It's there, but they don't actively encourage you to use it, and if you don't know about it already, you kick yourself when you find out about it. DB has already...

Throttling isn't the issue you're fighting. No matter what you do, the more power you need, the more power is consumed. Reduce the background resources makes a huge difference. I can go anywhere from 90 minutes to 4 hours gaming on a 67wH battery. It's a 14 inch screen. And everything is...

Allowed? Not so much. Tolerated with a blind eye? ..... Well...... yes. :D Haha. Welcome back. Every time I jump back in the scripts and supports seem to have evolved and reached a new stage. It's one of the biggest reasons I love EQ so much.

I highly recommend picking up an ethernet powerline kit. I was HUGELY skeptical of these things. I got a box of them for free (two sets) at a convention for winning a prize. Bro..... it's life changing. I can be almost 1500 ft away in the garage, downstairs, running at MAYBE half a meg less...
