Things you would have liked to see in this update/newsletter
- Addressing/disabling/banning of 3rd party clients, part of PVP balances
- More long standing bug fixes (I have reported several over the years and *cricket*)
- One additional veteran reward, generically useful (non-fail repair station?)
- One additional veteran reward, ethereal mount
- Feature to CC, at least one. Suggestion: disable spell particles, disable field animations, updated targeting system. Ok that last one is a long shot dream.
- Feature to EC, at least one. Suggestion: autofollow. Apparently they don't have this why? And I don't use the EC so EC users chime in!
- Fix vendor search down every other search on Atlantic
- Quest line to parallel/go along with Spring Event
- Roadmap for the summer and beyond
- A finite date for ToL

This conversation has to start with Enhanced Client, the original cheat client, that everyone else is only trying to match.
So until the Original Classic Client, which looks and plays better, can match EC, like many 3rd party Classic clients do, you are only killing off the entire game if you do something about them.
PvP has actually got to a place where Clients are matching, which is why you don't find actual PvPers complaining about the 3rd party programs.
The only people complaining, are those who don't play, or don't pvp.
The reason those people complain is because they can't PVP against those illegal tools and decide not to, not the other way around!
Unless you have any proof that removing these clients would 'kill the game' I offer to you that removing these clients would 'save the game' as people that don't feel like cheating and losing their accounts to 3rd party programs to PVP, would PVP, and massive amounts of players that have quit due to them would come back. See, it works both ways.

No, 3rd Party Clients, are only matching EC. Most people using them, tried to pvp against EC for years on Classic, it cannot be done.
Just like, Mages, cannot drop Parry. It is physically impossible to pvp in the current climate without Parry. Parry can only be dropped - if they balance PvP to allow Parry to be dropped. Some people cannot see this point - CovenantX.
If they fixed Classic Client, to match Enhanced, millions of pvpers would come back.
If they banned 3rd party clients, right now, the entire game would shut down.
My proof is, that I've never stopped pvping, through all the crap, I know most pvpers old and new.
I would still like to see our clients get updates to bring them up to part with features the PVP community requests. Wouldn't that be an ideal solution? OH right, back to 'we get nothing and like it'. Nevermind that too.
Really sad the more I think about it, hope I can be out of this game soon. Already closed 2 accounts last year.

In the PvP thread, that Kyronix is working from, I mentioned a wishlist of items that it would be really good if Classic could have. I know this wishlist already exists, and would improve life in Classic.
And to be fair, I've just read my list back - and they have hit 3-4 of the points straight off.
That is why this is not a fail, they have started something - yes, the next steps maybe more tricky.

This specific point, yes, I get it, I'm probably there doing it, alongside many players I know.
PvM - ToTs - I'm going to ask, what does it matter?
End of the day, PvM is to gear your characters.
For PvPers, they are gearing their characters for PvP - the PvM part is only a 1st stage, of many stages of preparation.
It is only natural, to want to play parts in more efficient ways, or every player, can chose how they want to play it, there is no reason to be stressed how other players are playing. Play your way, if you like what others are doing, play their way.
The only people I know, who have a real grievance against some of this behaviour - are those who were farming to make lots of gold off other players, due to scarcity of items. I'm going to be honest - those players are at the bottom of the list of players I care about. I'd rather see players able to get the gear they need to play their characters, than generate rare 500m items.
Third-party clients do make it easier to perform actions which negatively impact the game, sure, but these actions should be bannable regardless of the client. As they say, don't throw the baby out with the bath water.
As far as the newsletter is concerned, the devs have finite time and resources. For this one, they chose to focus on PVP updates as a follow-up to the solicitation of player feedback. Additionally, they did give an approximate time for NL, and this is good enough for me, personally. I would rather they project a time and curtail expectations rather than set a deadline in stone.
I would gladly use the EC if and only if I could use the graphics from the CC, yes I understand that zoom and maybe a few other functions would not be usable.
An added feature I would love to see with the CC is when you first log in is that whatever you are wearing is auto saved to Dress #1 Hands #1, I keep forgetting to save these every time I log in and cuss the first time I die. Not sure if the EC does this auto or not.
I am also curious as to why the EC does not have the auto follow. I use this all the time with my crafters/gathers. How do EC users get their pets to follow them.
GOOD thread @username
Whether they actually monitor it or not.
Announce that they are going to have a method to approve additional 3rd party programs by submission of approval from the creator of the program to an email that goes to Mesanna.
Then go thru the ban criteria if players use non approved ones.

OFF TOPIC as the EC is modable is there a way to mod the graphics to look like CC
The EC has the ability to have a player produced user interface, it doesn't have the ability to mod the whole thing.
