I think that playing a 2box with a wizard is going to be a bit rough, most successful 2 box combinations revolve around either tank/tanky dps and a healer or charm+heal. But if you really want to stick with the wizard I think a bard might be a good pairing, helps kiting a bit with selos and mana...

To be honest I think applying whichever philosophical razor (Hanlon, Occam) is the more fruitful endeavour; do you really think that they broke so many things on purpose and had all of the fixes lined up ready to go over several emergency patches / new exe pushes? Or is it more likely that they...

When it comes to non-MQ boxing on TLP servers I think the general consensus when running a heavy mage group is something like enchanter/healer/mage x4, where you drive with the enchanter. Lull/mez/slow/clarity/charm is just a lot better than having another mage, and enchanter is a fairly fun...

Did you actually read the thread? Pretty insane takes. 1) There is not going to be a RG emu server. 2) People have been warned against tinfoil conspiracies several times. 3) (personal opinion) A new TLP launch completely ruined by mass automation is not a "cash cow" for RG, it is an incredibly...

I have been wanting to post my thoughts on this topic for quite awhile, but I have been hesitant because I fear that my post might lead straight to Fippy's -- so I will try my best to avoid that path, while also being honest about the outlook of the upcoming TLP server(s). This post might be a...

Never bothered with the achievements, but for what it is worth... the level cap is 115, twinking is obviously super overpowered so there's no real reason to use mercs for leveling (unless you refuse to sell 1 krono or don't have any loyalty tokens you can turn into plat). I would strongly...

While I agree with the sentiment on a live server, suggesting ftp characters on Oakwynd is a bit silly to say the least. I can't offer any thoughts on raiding with mercs or using muleassist with more than 6 characters, but I would strongly advice against using MQ to kill any raid target in open...

Still not a huge fan of this ruleset personally, but at least they listened to the overwhelming amount of negative feedback regarding the 24 weeks of level 50, so that's something -- and it's a definite improvement. At least I assume this means you can start grinding AAs after 8 weeks, instead...

Legacy character was part of the Oakwynd ruleset found here: https://www.everquest.com/news/eq-oakwynd-now-live "Legacy Characters Overview Oakwynd launches with something we’ve called Legacy Characters. Legacy Characters allow your other characters on the same account on the server to receive...

A quick glance over https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/any-discount-for-buying-multiple-cwtn-plugin-licenses.83445/ would indicate that it is not possible and they are aware of the interest/desire for people to bulk purchase (with or without discount).

Yeah I'm getting the same crash on startup, although mine effects the other cwtn plugins too (tried deleting the mq2shaman.dll but then it just crashes because of the SK one). I'm sure it'll get fixed soon! Edit: I *think* you can just download the previous version of the dll file from the...

MQ still doesn't work on Oakwynd, it has something to do with DBG not turning off truebox protection (and MQ devs not wanting to support MQ use on any server with truebox protection on). I would guess that it'll work once Oakwynd goes from relaxed truebox to no truebox.

Honestly you can't really charm effectively without a cleric, complete heal is simply way too strong since mobs have more hp than a tank -- both druids and shamans are just so far away from being able to output the same effective healing. Enchanter slow is perfectly fine, and most of the time...

Throughout the first couple of expansions nothing beats enchanter/cleric. Charmed mobs will outtank and outdps anything else in the game, and with a substantial health pool the only class that can effectively heal them is the one with complete heal. For a third, you can add a porter like...

You can turn off the new UI engine without launching the game, navigate to your EQ folder and find eqclient.ini, open it and make sure it says > UseNewUIEngine=0 <
