Zarkdon replied to the thread Congrats Silent Redemption.

It seem that if the only reason you can win is if the competition can't play you really didn't win.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Congrats Silent Redemption.

But it is a lot more fun to speculate if they would have won had they not gotten their DZ early. Particularly since the second place...

Zarkdon replied to the thread Does anybody read the quest dialogue?.

For those of you that read through LI: Are we actually doing anything in this expansion or just watching memories?

Zarkdon replied to the thread How Far Can I Get On A Silver Account Solo/Molo?.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Why do collectibles stack to 100?.

Everything should stack to at least 1000.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Why do collectibles stack to 100?.

What we want for the next expansion is a collectible depot, that you can let people access to get collectibles.

Zarkdon liked CdeezNotes's post in the thread EQ needs to learn from Palworld.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Regrets on 85.

The only regret I have when using a level 85 heroic is that I didn't use a level 100 heroic. The levels between 65 and 100 are slow and...

Zarkdon replied to the thread Eq resource.com with no ads.

EQ resources is unusable now without a subscription. The ads are impressively obnoxious.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Beastlord main... and two others?.

Bst, bard, zerker would be a solid group, and their aDPS would work well together. Remember, before you set your mind on having a pet...

Forgot about fading memories.

Mill workers in the long string of buildings just to the west of the named mosquito spawn point right below the brew factory building.

Zarkdon replied to the thread dual monitors broken?.

I use dual monitors and haven't had this problem.

Zarkdon replied to the thread DX11 - Why were our expectations so high?.

They massively exceeded my expectations, but that bar is low.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Heroes Are Forged - The Hero's Forge Mission Discussion.

It's kind of a bummer, I still need 1 neck and I think that Heroes are Forged is more interesting to box than the one in Pal Lomen.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Only T1 raids for new expansion.

This would be terrible. Nothing is worse than needing a rare item from a low level zone and finding out you cant farm anymore because...

Zarkdon replied to the thread 32 expansion raids/events focused.

This is either OP trying to drum up support for his idea, or an amazing piece of satire.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Weapon Ratios!.

A fundamentally different game because it has players. Rigid class roles were dumb 20 years ago they are dumb today. You want people to...

Zarkdon replied to the thread Weapon Ratios!.

Not as well as a SK, just like the shadow knight should not be able to DPS as well a monk. Should a SK be viable in a group with 2...

Zarkdon replied to the thread looking for a 3 box suggestion (two possiable options)..

Zarkdon liked fransisco's post in the thread EQ raids are digustingly easy.

Honestly I didn't bother reading. No comment on what you meant, just that you need to make your posts more concise and readable.

Shrouds!

Zarkdon replied to the thread EQ raids are digustingly easy.

He was too busy trying to convince the developers that they need to make Shrouds part of EQ again.

Zarkdon liked Fanra's post in the thread EQ 25th Anniversary Event.

Everything you said except for this. Limited time stuff is literally limiting. If Darkpaw takes the time to create content, limiting...

Zarkdon replied to the thread EQ raids are digustingly easy.

It surprises me that easy raids bother you, since you constantly cry about needing events everyone can do. Would you have been happy if the...

Zarkdon replied to the thread EQ 25th Anniversary Event.

Or they could do absolutely anything else.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Neck evolver drop rate.

I've just had my third neck drop (3/75 now) all three have been in FF.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Laurions Song... I have to admit - You did good.

Except for the utter lack of missions. Dont take positive feedback as an excuse to drop from 4 missions to 2 missions.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Torgiran Mines -Wood elves.

Sister Island in Ocean of Tears works well too.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Neck evolver drop rate.

Haven't had a second neck yet.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Reviewing Laurion's Song expansion.

If the rewards are worth the effort people will suffer to get it. Look at the dodge aug from plane of war.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Reviewing Laurion's Song expansion.

It would be nice if they made some content challenging for level 125 characters in new t3 group gear.

Zarkdon replied to the thread Linked Characters.

Fellowship campfires are amazingly useful.

A post partisans quests mission for each zone would be nice to flesh out and finish the story of the zone.

Part of that feeling is that there is no real danger in the world.. If you are 120 there are 21 zones you have to be somewhat careful...

There are a couple partisans that utilize them, but I think the primary reason is to just make the zones seem more alive.
