My wizard and cleric were able to cast on Naggy from a distance. Naggy/Vox/CT/Inny/Draco/Phinny should all be belly casters.

This is not something I'm very familiar with? Do you mean you have to stand melee range to cast on him?

That's correct. Many classic mobs are belly casters. You see this in Kunark and Velious as well. I'm not very familiar with SoL -> live
The only classic raid target that is not a belly caster is Maestro. Fire giants are also belly casters, but they can be cast on from range right now. If a player casts outside of melee range, they should be resisted automatically.

I wanna say its the "g" flag in the database to make spells on a particular monster not work from range. While I agree this is classic and is an important thing to have on raid mobs, in order for it to not be excessively penalizing you guys should do a little bit of work in solb and perma. Some of the things I've noticed is that neiroth for example is not supposed to be in till kunark I think which makes breaking the room before nagafen quite a bit more difficult. The wizard in the first FG pack is supposed to patrol into the hallway and come back, not just sit in the middle of the hallway. The icy terrors in permafrost are on like a 10 min spawn timer, they should be on the same timer as giants, or at a minimum of 28 mins with the rest of the dungeon style timers. If these changes aren't made first, some of these pulls will be a lot harder than they were in classic, given that we will not be able to utilize pacify and fd pulling will be way harder also. A compromise could be to make all god/dragon/raid targets belly casters and keep the FGS the same, that is a call someone would have to make given the population and interest in the server though.

Copy That Neiroth has been deleted already from the DB and is waiting on a reboot. As for Perma frost times I'll get those changes in as well. We changed SolB timers to be 24 mins on trash mobs 12 hours on giants. 5 days on naggy
