now I want waffle fries while I do some weekend work

A sweaty heart sounds like a serious medical condition.

Of note, the heroic AA include hunters starting in EOK...in case you're also looking to get those situated. Think all the way back to CotF they had 40 slot bags for at least the final hunter achievement though. CotF is also when the heroic AA via achievements starts.

you haven't lived until you play bard/shaman and 4 warriors. The MT in dual-wield, the rest with 2 handers.

As much of a fan of multi-classing as I am, I will never understand the draw people have for these interactive screensaver type of "games". You show up, everything falls down and you're rewarded with meaningless numbers floating around the screen. They are meaningless because you were never...

There's also OTHER things to do on live. On this absurdity there is NOTHING else to do. The grind is all that is until several expansions in. Nothing new? Sure, bad design for a new server that they want to hold interest? Absolutely. Even on TLP they unlock expansions relatively quickly so you...

looks like they're maxing out their characters in 1 week, which pretty much means there isn't enough content to keep anyone busy staying subbed either. EQ classic has lots of mid-tier named and such to tackle, but if you're hitting max in under a week then all of the content is useless as you...

oh man. Went to solusek solo as a bard way back when. Would keep 2-3 mezzed, run regen songs in btween to heal up then start whacking things again. Was a PITA to do, but it was truly fun. I didn't have to necessarily be more powerful than the mobs I was fighting, just use my tools effectively...

It's useful until house of thule, then even bards and bst's no longer get any benefit from it. Fall off from other classes is a lot faster.

don't really need the res stick, unless maybe on a TLP maybe. Pally AA res works fast enough for combat res duty. Of course, I can't be bothered to do the work to get the res sticks so I dunno if there's a good reason to get it for a pally on live these days

This is why I use the Pally as my primary healer, warrior to tank and druid in DPS mode

nobody ever goes bard/sham/4xwar like god intended

I've been an advocate since 1999 that EQ needed true multi-classing...I just doubt they can pull it off in a manner that actually works. I also would get bored super fast with only classic available while using an OP single character. Be just like what we have now with tank mercs pre-75. Yes...

Could just add a paladin to cover for the sham until the sham gets to the levels where it's the star. I use one in my group as a healer even at max level and I prefer it to more dps/utility/whatever and am running war/bst/bard/mage/dru/paladin. I've never found that my DPS was lacking enough...

This might depend on how you're configured, and I am by no means a RGmerc expert, but for most things on here you can do this by having your toon marked assist target itself.
