Second this. Old way a year ago before I took my break, I would autologin and have profile hotkeys setup for the account. Not per character. So if I logged out to char select and chose a different character on the same account, my profile hotkey would be the same to hotswap. Current setup...

When I came back to EQ after a 17 year break initially, I wanted to drive on my MNK. I was adamant about it. After many posts, and conversations on Discord, I saw the error in my ways and switched to a Tank driver. Never looked back. Never regretted the decision. In fact, it truly was one...

The answer is always tacos.

From parses I have seen for this expansion on raid targets - MNK/ROG/BST. Basically in that order. Sometimes ROG is top. This does not mean that you will see in a raid, All Monks, then all Rogues, etc. It means based on the sample parses I have viewed, Monks are typically the top, followed...

I would honestly keep that group as is. The only thing that would make it shine better would be SHD instead of PAL. If we are talking current content - SHD/SHM/BRD/BST/MNK/ROG is probably the top group makeup across the board. But I am only one man with an opinion.

BST/MNK/ROG are top DPS on most fights in current content. Only listed in alphabetical order, not in order of DPS. I wouldn't, but that is just me.

Great group. I believe in synergy which is why the SHM is in there. It is tough to beat paired with the other toons.

I raise you SHD/SHM/BRD/BST/BER/ROG at 115 and 120. At 125, I heard monks have made a comeback. So drop the BER for a MNK? Taking a guess.

Knave is correct. WOW has done it a few times. Work...yes, but it is something that is a must. It is going to start getting a lot more ridiculous looking at damage numbers and combat logs when people are hitting for 10m a swing. People are already at the crit caps aren't they? Like...what...

It all depends on max level, f2p, or not. 3 groups minimum IMHO. Three tanks (Your choice but WAR are kings for tanking raids), 4 Heals(2 x CLR minimum+1 SHM + Any), 3x BRD, 1 ENC, rest DPS your choice. If F2P and no augs, stick with casters even though currently melee is king in the...

Are we still supposed to use the Mesh Updater? Received this error this morning.

PAL/SHM/BRD/BST/MAG/NEC is solid. Pet focused. You can also drop the NEC for WIZ since you want to play one it looks like. Can even swap BRD for ENC if you plan on dropping the NEC. That is the great thing about EQ. No wrong way to go about things. Try something out, that doesn't work...

I had a writeup somewhere on these forums about grouping. It is older, I might need to update it to current content when I get the expacs. Currently F2P on test. However... From a Tank perspective, I am always partial to SHD. For groups, raids, you name it. SHD is where it is at. But...

The main reason to play full-time on Test server? You can take an extended break like I did, for about a year. Come back, and all my characters are still Gold status without ever having to worry about sub prices or krono. This is the best reason ever. Plus there are many other bonuses to...
