zleski replied to the thread State of raiding in 2023.

In my opinion, this expansion's raid events are, by and large, too easy. Some events such as Myconid Mutiny are the exception. The key...

zleski replied to the thread Class race diety combos that you would like to see?.

Gnome Shamans that worship Bertox. Gnomes can be Bertox-worshipping Clerics and Necromancers, so it seems like Shaman is a perfect fit.

zleski liked Meeko's post in the thread Feature request: Locked chat windows shouldn't be able to be closed.

Sounds reasonable that locking a window should prevent it from being closed. I submitted a ticket to update that behavior.
