So, that's when they'll 'rebreak' channeling for us again.

Rash said he's going to be fixing the ae ramp changes that made many enounters more difficult than intended.

Of course the ae ramp was originally intended, but not properly implemented due to a bug, so now it's working as intended, but the events are harder, and people are complaining, so he's unfucking it. That and a few other things.

They've been quick to respond, have to give them credit for that. Of course they're responding to their own changes, which may or may not have been intentional.

Most likely were intentional, but the outcry was too loud from all corners.

That's why they can ignore the necros, as we're a small group.

Raiders have the largest voice, and they complained they couldn't farm their raids anymore. So they fix that.

It's the standard fare, There is always a patch after the patch, especially after big patches. Thats when they truly debug there new patch, Yep and nerf a little harder. Six years now, still the same EQ I'm returning to.

Side question however; My Cursor gets stuck in upper left corner on Eula agreement. If anyone has a solution i'd appreciate it. Sony forums don't. I'm just hoping thats one of the bugs they fix, On the forums there that is a known Issue...


Hope for the best, expect the worst.....

Think that is a driver issue (mouse perhaps). Try hitting alt+enter to go to windowed mode and then again to go back to full screen. I remember that problem but really was a good year or so ago when it hit me.

I had this happen to me right after I did a reinstall a few weeks ago. If you're using XP, it's a compatibility issue with EQ, but it's an easy fix. You need to download Windows Application Compatibility (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows/appcompatibility/default.mspx), then follow these instructions (http://eqforums.station.sony.com/eq/board/message?board.id=tech&message.id=108379) (from eqforums):

Launch the application by going to your start menu, Program Files, Windows Compatibility Toolkit, then click on the Compatibility Administration Tool.

Under the System Database section, click on Applications.
In the right list view scroll down to the EverQuest entry.

Double click the EverQuest entry.
Now right-click the EQGame.exe entry in bold that shows up in the right hand view and choose Disable Entry.

Unless it's a totally different problem, that should work.
