There have been a number of posters here that have changed the opinion of the game I had from 2004 or so onwards. However, I still know enough about it to know it isn't a game I would enjoy at all. I am fully aware that Ashes may fall in to that same catagory as well - that is why I keep posting as I do. The core concept of the game (PvE to create, PvP to redistribute) is one of those things that could potentially be great, but in order to actually be what it is claiming to be, it needs PvP to compete with pure PvP MMO's, and PvE to compete with pure PvE MMO's. If it doesn't meet that, the game will just be some middle ground game that just isn't as appealing to anyone as other games that exist. you should. its a great experience, especially if you can start with 8 more people all coordinated ;3

Noaani wrote: » With these tools in place, the bulk of the work for a raid mob is in a unique character model. If you follow the EQ2 model, you use these unique models for end mobs of raid zones and content cycles, for open world encounters, but then you don't shy away from using regular existing models (increased in size perhaps) for lesser named mobs, or if there is a need for "emergency" content where players beat encounters signolificantly faster than expected (will happen on occasion).

Xeeg wrote: » You keep saying that Ashes is "dynamic, not static", but by this do you mean that it is going to be like a diablo style randomized selection of resistances/abilities for every monster/boss? Like you go into a forest and the first "Grey Spider" is frost resistance with a web attack and the second "Grey Spider" is fire resistance with a ranged poison spit? How dynamic are you talking about here? During the fight itself they start switching modifiers around? Are all the monsters picking from a randomized table of modifiers every time they spawn? Or just the bosses? The devil is in the details here.

Taking later comments here into context, I'd say I just disagree with EQ2's whole approach and your preference of it. I'm a visual learner, so I want to see what the boss/mob does. I'm not talking about ground indicators or whatever, but the effects/animations should be visible imo. Intrepid have the opportunity to build their models with the feature you're talking about in mind. Give those models the ability to perform a super wide variety of animations. And those animations should be comprised of steps that could weave other abilities into them with proper visual representation of that new ability. In other words, once again, do better. And my attitude towards this is also why I say that I don't want devs to try and keep pace with trackered top pve players, because I want a much better quality of content instead of a lot of it (while not overworking devs to death). Invisible skills and non-existent animations are not quality imo.
