endurance and other shit?

[legeriun]

Haven't played in a few months at least. Logged into my rogue the other day and all my items have endurance on them. I remember there being some skills that you need to buy books for which used endurance. DO rogues get useful ones?? How often can you use, etc.? How much is the dps increase?

Also, I seem to remember them saying there would be a melee system added which would tell you when a mob was vulnerable and if you hit something right at that time it would do extra damage. Is that in game yet? I would ask these questions in game but dont really know many people who play anymore.

After DAOC copied 80% of its game, EQ has returned the favor and started to reciprocate and copy the few good original ideas Mythic had.

But where the fuck is my STICK!

The /disc system as it was is no more. Many of the old disc timers have been changed, many of your discs are also now on separate timers, so now you can burn disc after disc after disc, instead of waiting another ##minutes to pop another disc, but only as long as you have Endurance to fund it. Endurance = Melee Mana.

Oh, and to get your discs back, you need to go to the library in PoK, and buy the discipline tomes off of a merchant. They range in price from a few coppers to, I believe, a few hundred plat (like 200'ish tops iirc).
They also added a few new discs.

I would recommend checking out the Safehouse for detailed disc info., as I'm not very knowledgable about rogue specifics.

That was the whack-a-mole openings system. It, and Melee revamp/balancing part II pretty much got chucked in the trash. Any melee upgrades/balancing/revamping you can expect now are whatever $oE deems worthy from the class correspondence list.
There's another thread about that in the general EQ section over on Safehouse, and the thread has links to the EQlive rogue boards where the official "top ten" list is.

Unfortunately, their idea of "fixed" is pretty fucked up in a lot of cases, and many of the more useful pending fixes are going to come as AA's with the OoW expansion.
So much for their promise to never make people pay for class balancing through the purchase of expansions, eh?
