    Not you're posting your self reflections?
  2. Doze Augur

    Exactly, now you're learning!
  3. CdeezNotes Augur

    You clearly aren't :rolleyes:
  4. Doze Augur

    Contiuing to repeat the same flawed strawman over and over again won't change the fact that I already addressed your misconception about that ... no matter how little my answer was the one that you wanted (maybe try reading it again?)
  5. Doze Augur

    True, lions have nothing to learn from sheep.
  6. Waring_McMarrin Augur

    Continuing to point out that the items you stated are worthless still have plenty of value and people would still do regardless of your claims of them being useless.

    The fact remains that while these items are out of era they are not going to destroy the server.

    Fanatically obtuse to the bone ...
  8. Waring_McMarrin Augur

    You made a claim that people wanted to do the quests but wouldn't do them because of the tower items even though those items are still very useful even when not equipped.

    Can't the tower just unlock in the year 2037 when the server reaches LS expansion?


    War, its called Neverquest for a reason, no EQ players do extra things if it doesn't make their toon better or they can't make some Kronos/plat. Tower gear will certainly diminish the demand for some items, which is ironic on a server with a ruleset that encourages trading lots of gear.
  10. Waring_McMarrin Augur

    Except for the fact that the quest for the item with a haste click does still make your character better by allowing them to have haste when they are not able to get it from another player.

    A good compromise would be to let people do the tower, claim all the rewards but don't allow them to be equipt until PoP

    Something like that would be a perfectly fine compromise.
    Just to be clear then the issue is not with the lvl 25, 35 and 45 Tower items. They all seem to fit reasonably in era (afaik anyway, precious few of those items are listed on Zam).
    It is only the lvl55 Tower items that puts a wrecking ball to Kunark and Velious content.
  13. Waring_McMarrin Augur

    Not letting people use the gear they earn is a compromise? Are you next going to make the same demands about the level 65 gear that unlocks in PoP? Waiting until that to let people use the gear makes it useless as they would have better gear that is fit for their levels.
  14. Intercept Augur

    I never said they can't use it and using the word "earn" here is disingenuous.

    No demands, this was just a suggestion as a compromise.

    This way people can still do the quests, "earn" the gear and then use some of it now and some of it in PoP.
  15. Waring_McMarrin Augur

    Again, not letting people use the gear that they earn through in game quests isn't a compromise, it is letting the people who don't want that gear at all to get exactly what they want. When PoP comes out players will be 65 and they will be earning the level 65 gear which will also have people complaining that it is out of era.

    Once PoP comes out the level 55 gear won't be an issue because players will be working on the level 65 gear instead.

    So ... since Zam is missing information on many of the Tower items I decided to log on an old toon to check out the lvl65 items (sadly I have no toon in the level range that could unlock lvl55 Tower items).

    Full list of currently listed Tower items on Zam

    Imagine my surprise when I found that the stats on the lvl65 items are very close to the stats of the supposed lvl55 Tower items listed in the OP (none of which are on Zam either).
    Considering that the stats on the lvl45 Tower items are a lot lower then I am starting to wonder if either DPG messed up when assigning stats to the lvl55 Tower items ... or if the OP has played us all with false information? (edit: the stats listed by the OP are correct - my appologies to the OP)
    If the stats of the lvl55 Tower items are in fact much lower than we have been led to believe (somewhere reasonable between the lvl45 and lvl65 Tower items) then I (probably) no longer have any reservations about them being available sooner (if not outright Kunark then at least with Velious).

    Edit: I found an ancient char that was able to muddle through a few of the Tower events for the lvl55 items and sadly then the stats on them are exactly as posted by the OP. The problem remains (assuming the lvl55 pieces are available before Luclin)

    So can you do the tower stuff multiple times to get all the sets?
  18. Waring_McMarrin Augur

    Yes, you can repeat the tower missions as many times as you want as soon as the task timer for them is over and I think it is a standard 6 hours.
  19. Doze Augur

    I am not actually sure if the pieces that you have unlocked automaticlaly updates to the next level when you hit the right level (the ones for sale - not the ones you already purchased) or if you have to redo all the Tower rooms everytime you hit the right level to get the updated versions (I am guessing that redoing the rooms would be required though).
  20. Waring_McMarrin Augur

    They will just update to the version that is supported by your level, no need to redo the tower to see the new versions as you level.
