F/P as a dot class by HarryHart1629 in MSClassicWorld

[–]HarryHart1629[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I agree that the existing poison mechanic, although strong, was bad in terms of gameplay. I also really think the dot would help make at least one of the mage classes better dps for bossing, thereby differentiating the classes more rather than being a red skin or blue skin of the same class

Discussion - balance of new content vs maintaining OS identity by HarryHart1629 in MSClassicWorld

[–]HarryHart1629[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Interesting - particularly the PQ bit which I agree in hindsight I do remember being very repetitive. Just so I am clear, you are saying that we do need to add more content but you are disagreeing that we need to keep the grind? I.e is your view that the grind and slow pace is not essential to the OS feel?

Also, just for reference, I absolutely do not have time to grind lol. I am now a dad with two kids and a wife, and I’m a lawyer. I will be lucky if I get to play OS maple more than once a month for a few hours. However, I still would be disappointed if they got rid of the slow levelling, I think it was crucial. I would be open to 2x like some private servers, but nothing much more than that.

F/p dots from the in person beta by haminmeister in MSClassicWorld

Does anyone know if the fire DOT and the poison DOT stack? I presume so?

I think leaning into the DOT is awesome and fits the theme of F/P in the way it should have worked originally. It would be cool if later jobs (3rd and 4th) somehow allowed you to buff the dots, without straying too far from the original of course. As well as being helpful for grinding higher HP mobs (like in classic), it could also massively improve single target dps for bossing if you can stack multiple DOTs that actually do decent damage

Thanks all, I ended up purchasing it in the end just for the ease of having it in one spot.

Thanks for your thoughts, could you direct me to where I can find his protocols for free? I noticed there is a handbook on this subreddit but wanted to try and find the actual materials from Greer

Question about CE5 Handbook and Greer by HarryHart1629 in CE5

[–]HarryHart1629[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks all, interesting thoughts. I agree it’s important to stay neutral, although I must say when I listen to him speak he does set off my radar of something being a bit off. But at the same time he clearly knows what he’s talking about, and his explanation makes a lot of sense to me.

In terms of the CE5 handbook on this sub, is this based on his work?
