RETURN TO EVERQUEST!†It sounds like and epic movie but it’s really just MMORPG.com writer Phil James on a hunt to find an MMO home and going back to familiar territory. Phil has fond memories of Everquest from years ago and he jumps back in to see if it still captivates. Check it out and then let us know what you’re thinking in the comments.
You never forget your first love. I first came to mmos with the arrival of Star Wars Galaxies. I was living with a huge Star Wars fan at the time (huge meaning a dedicated fan that is, not morbidly obese) and he couldn’t get his wallet out fast enough to buy Galaxies on its release.

Specifically for combat, we will be changing some of the formulas to create a more fast-paced, exciting combat experience. Major changes coming soon involve adjusting high levels of mitigation, tweaking the random damage spread and making armor require statistics (like Faction or Strength) and character level (rather than Armor Use skill).

After these changes are in place, we will be making adjustments to Faction skills, Mutations and regular skills, and a balance pass for Items.The most competitive Price. By using a special price searching system to check the diablo 3 Gold prices of our 150 major competitors.We are able to maintain the most competitive price for players to buy diablo 3 gold,We guarantee 100% safe delivery method and take full responsibility for it, our company have been completed thousands of transactions and meet over 1000 orders everyday, we successfully make all our customers delighted and satisfied.
After talking combat, Haydysch goes on to talk about Progress Towns, Faction Control Points, Color Customization for Clothing, Camp Improvements, and even spends some time talking about the mobile app that devs created several months ago.
