View Full Version : Nilbog I decided to write you an essay

Ok so when the server came back online..
-How many players logged on within an hour?
-How many of those players are raid capable?
-What % of those players were Nihilum?
-Did they all go to the same location? Where was it?
-Where did everyone else go?
-Have the smaller guilds attempted a truce on respawn days?
In my honest opinion, adding the variance PvE has would mean everyone else gets NO raid targets. This is quite a similar situation that happened on eqlive during classic. So wtf.
Since you don't seem to understand why people feel this way I decided to write you a novel.
Nihilum has had 99.9% of raid mobs since release of the box, I don't understand how adding variance would make things worse, like I keep hearing, but I will try to explain why having no variance is ruining the server.
Azrael built up a decent force, we were roughly 30-50 deep when we started contesting - to the current situation where no one logs on, interestingly now you want to see the statistical lay out of raid attendance after the only other guild on the server quit, again for the 30th time. (Brobb Force GL Nihi, Rexx Heresy GL Nihi, Gong basically Holo GL Nihi, HPT Nihi, Sektor the guy who fucked his cousin Nihi, you get my point most GL's have buckled like bitches so let's not jump on the Lite bandwagon so quickly !)
Now where was I, oh yeah we took a couple Trakanon's, a Draco - and now it turns into 8 hours to contest Trak. We tried VS several times to devastating losses with faction, we tried snagging Inny a few times to devastating losses/CC. You see, when a guild is forced to mass recruit to battle another guild heads up that has the advantage, you almost always get people that will feed information, and they can just check to see what targets you go for just as easily.
Now the mass recruiting begins, and these 8 hour Trak contests seem a lot harder than just guild disbanding and joining Nihi, since it is FFA. Seeing as most of the hardcore's that are willing to put in this kind of time are already in Nihi, it's almost glaringly obvious that they will win the battle of neckbeards and eventually overcome the opposition.
The reason variance will help, is because smaller crews that are online at odd times, or are on top of zone control and keeping trackers out, see you don't understand that Nihilum is not online other than for raid targets - that's like 20% of total server time, and they LOCK IT ALL DOWN and force people into ridiculous time battles.
This rule set favors those with the most time to secure the pixels, but once that's accomplished they can go back to running 20-25 at raids, and the server is a wasteland for the rest of the time.
These 50 vs 50's are brainless caster assist trains, they aren't what PVP should be about end all be all - this cuts out the little guy, and shits on the #2 spot - if you can't see it you're insane.
and PS, there are no smaller guilds to truce.

just do this, it sounds like it would be the most fun because everyone on the server can show up just to mess around and PVP even if nillies gonna slay the dragon regardless
Have raid mobs spawn within a 6 hour window with a one hour advance shout. Example, Trakanon is killed, and can respawn anywhere from 72-78 hours later. If he is going to spawn at 75 hours, a global shout announces he will spawn an hour from now at 74 hours. It's basically a one hour advance batphone to everyone on the server. More dedicated guilds will be rewarded by being in a defensive position at zone lines since they can camp the entire 6 hour window, but casual players will be able to move in to attack as the window closes in the final hour. Epic PvP will result. The precise timing could be tinkered with, the main necessity here is serverwide advance shouts for all raid mobs to encourage mass PvP competition for those mobs rather than poopsocking or locking down precise mob spawn times at off-peak hours.

Azrael officer Agatha is a perfect example on why two guilds will never exist - it's just easier to join them, which has been done with every other guild on the box.
He couldn't hack the 8 hr Trak days, and quit after the recruiting/losses started coming.
I don't blame him though, it surely isn't the first time this cycle has happened.

ooo man, people so dumb
i think variance would add to the box, not sure why blue gets everything and red has to suffer through a guild that consists of half the server just steamrolling through everything within seconds of pop but blue gets to poopsock hard.
only reason variance would be good is that nihilum simply cannot get a zerg force like that to be on call all the time, giving smaller number people who actually play the game and don't only logon for the weekly raid schedule a shot at getting something.
saying that there will be less pvp is bullshit, there's never going to be any pvp if you show up with 50 lvl 60 while the resistance has 15. people just aint gonna sacrifice themselves into a zerg of braindead drones
i dont feel like arguing this anyway, lets open teams99, let red99 die, eventually we will figure out what a stupid thing it would be to merge the 2 and just keep teams and shut red99 down and let it be the beta it always was
Stasis01

There is no way a second guild can compete with this rule set, which is why there is no other guilds - Lite is stubborn and has tried a few times, but it will always be the same cycle.
Most of the hardcores have all joined Nihi, and just enjoy sitting back and having total control of PVE nostalgia with Nizzar hand holding - it's just so bleh compared to what it could be.
Red is bluer than blue.

If Red99 had variance at least the opposition would have some other options like mobilizing faster, being available for late night, doing juggs as a guild if Traks due etc etc there's 100 things that could happen, shit just get lucky and have people around when inny spawns.
Right now - It's just so one dimensional and frustrating for any second guild attempting to compete.

11-14-2013, 03:38 AM
Honestly, the best argument right now is:
Nihilum already sports 50 players on designated raid days. So how much worse can it get with a variance?
This is a brilliant comment. There isn't really any reason variance cannot be added. It won't hurt anyone. If nihilum is truly pve gods they will deal with it. It only promotes smaller guilds (people who field 20-28 members) to be able to kill raid targets.

also for the love of god enable 2 boxing, it's not like nihilums 50x2 numbers gonna change anything for them, but smaller guilds can get shit done, why cant we have 2 boxing on red99? blue get spell ducking and a lot of other things because of no obvious reason, we have other issues here thus we should get 2boxing to solve our population issue.

I specifically left blue because of variance. It is one of the dumbest things ever implemented in EQ history. However I do understand why blue HAS to have it. When you have 4-5 guilds which have 100+ person rosters each then you need something to keep those numbers lower.
However they DON'T have the pvp option. Here if guild A wants that mob they KNOW what they need to do. They need to FIGHT for it. This is a pvp server after all.
If they don't have enough people then recruit more, if they are not skilled enough then practice more, if their levels are too low then level MORE. if their leadership sucks then REMOVE those leaders.
This isn't some nanny state server where things are handed to you because you feel your small MINORITY group should get some share.

wahhh i didnt get dragons
server sucks and its all everybody elses fault
does anyone read what they post?
if players are logging on once a week to down raid targets then logging off, whats the problem?

It is a long term change in the server. The current structure of Nihilum wouldn't work on a real server. You aren't going to have 10 people put in scouting time every week to then bat phone random noob #58 to get him his raid loot.
If PvE requires more time every week then Nihilum will change. PvE needs to be spread out throughout the week with a variable spawn time period. Make it so someone can't log in for 5 hours a week and be a part of every raid on the server. If you want to be a part of every raid target in a game you should be forced to play this game every day.
Normal people with lives won't be able to be a part of every single raid target every week.

Your right, the ones logging in 5 hours a week in Nihilum shouldn't be getting mobs. The system needs to change. Make EQ harder to split up the casuals vs the hard core players.

The current system doesn't test Nizzar's skill in organization and strategy. I agree he is good and he has a core of members that are good. If these changes are made I think Nizzar will still be the most successful but they will have to work for it and it will be more fun to be in outside guilds. I think more mobs will slip here and there.
It is so dumb to base how the server would be off of one night of crap variance, where every single mob spawned at the exact same time on the same day.
If variance was put in it would take a month for those working harder in Nihilum to get fed up and start their own guild.
Rellapse says noobs scout out the mobs on real blue servers and the gangsters get called in for the kills. Well on this server if there are 25 "noobs" logging in each day to get loot for others they will get fed up and just make their own guild. I don't think it would play out this way to where the noobs were doing the scouting on red99, but I was just using Rellapse's example.

Well on this server if there are 25 "noobs" logging in each day to get loot for others they will get fed up and just make their own guild. I don't think it would play out this way to where the noobs were doing the scouting on red99, but I was just using Rellapse's example.
Nihilum average week consist of 25 hours of raiding.
I think we work pretty hard as it is.

Do you realize 3 to 5 people can carry an entire guild with Variance?
Do you realize you can play 1 hour a week and get all the mobs?
Do you know how a well organized guild runs?
Clearly if you like this game so much, You would be winning right?
Why not?
I don't think Nihlum would have 50+ players logged in for all the raids if they were spread out through the week with a window of 6 hours on spawn times.
I'm not saying it takes a ton more time for all 50 players but most people can't jump on a game at anytime. As it is now it is easy to schedule 5 hours a week, one day a week, at the same time, to log in and take orders.
It has little to do with the scouting, it has to do with getting 50 people to log in a game all at once at any given time. It would be impossible on our server to pull that off.

Not saying it isn't sad..
Just trying to make the point that Nihilum already spends a tremendous amount of time playing per week..
To think that Nihilum doesn't put in massive amount of time before and after bosses so that we CAN get these bosses is ludicrous. People crying saying we should have to put in MORE time than we already do with variance is laughable.

Also, I want to add I am a casual and if I wanted to raid all the content joining Nihilum would be my only option. If things changed and it required bat phones, scouting, etc. I wouldn't even consider joining a hardcore raiding guild. I just don't care much for it.

Variance is a blue concept. You have the ability to take a contested spawn by force here.
And variance isn't even working on blue with higher competition in the raiding scene, why would it work here?

Kergan
11-14-2013, 01:00 PM
FTE on a PVP server? Seriously?
Just because nobody can take a raid mob from Nihilum doesn't mean that the mechanic isn't there. And it's pretty hard to camp someone at a raid target spawn to get FTE like it's done on blue when someone can come and kill you. Or have a war/clr hold VS or something while getting bombed on.
Every issue with poopsocking/FTE/etc can be solved with PVP and it just so happens R99 has PVP enabled. If you want a mob go take it?
quido
11-14-2013, 01:27 PM
Shit even +/- 4 hours on everything would spice it up enough so that Nihilum at least isn't on auto-pilot with 50 people the same few hours each week.
I'm not trying to excuse the opposition for getting nothing on the repop - should at least be able to get something. I hope there will be better coordination next repop. However under the current system, it's likely Nihilum will just auto-pilot with 40-50 people each week until we get lucky enough to have another repop.

That would work great. With double the people.
If the opposition starts fielding even close to even numbers, Nihilum will pull another 20 people out of Nizzar's ass just to make sure nobody ever has a chance.
I'm not complaining here - I think it can be done nonetheless. But people/staff should know the reality of how it goes on red.

Pudge
11-14-2013, 01:56 PM
didnt read 2nd half of thread.
the reason variance was not put in on red is because it would promote pvp, as the spawn times would be known. However, as it is currently, there is no pvp because it's pointless to contest against a 50 man raid force with 20 dudes.
the problem is that because all the mobs are up only once a week, every nilly can clear his schedule and be on for those 3 hours a week and log off. if there were variance with "dragon shouts" across the server 30 mins or an hour before it spawned (or staggered spawn times which ensured dragons popping at known times just at DIFFERENT times throughout the week) then there would be more pvp, more ppl logged on more often (not just 3 hours a week) and even a chance that, perhaps, a euro crew could down a small dragon like faydedar when it spawns at 4:00 am over in the US and no one is going to wake up to kill it.
just makes sense. The current system was put in place to promote PVP, but the pvp aint happening. If it's not accomplishing the goal, switch it up and see if we can make the server a more lively atmosphere. Wouldn't it be great if you were a random newb leveling in Red Dawn and you saw the server message that Talendor was about to spawn in 30 minutes!? run over there and get some pvp, maybe dream about slayin da dragon. get to the scene and check it out. doesnt that sounds like FUN? isnt the server supposed to be about FUN and not begrudgingly waking up at 5:00 am to kill VS and then logging off to go back to sleep?

11-14-2013, 01:57 PM
Doubt variance would do much at this point. To be honest I just think it would be annoying to not be able to have the raids in a sequence that's possible to plan around. All raid targets would still go to the stronger guild.
I'm all for balance and competition, but wouldn't waste time on variance tbh. It would just take spying on each others to a new level.
I'd rather see guerilla tactics to disturb raids made more possible by for example limiting /who to once every 5 minutes per player or similar as well as having zone plugging destroyed. Let players stay in game and get YT'ed or simply die an xp death if they go LD while zoning.

I have been in Nihilum free farming dragons, and I have been in the resistance - this system is broken, I have seen it first hand and am just speaking openly about it.
It looks like an Azrael/Nihilum issue from the outside, but really I have been on both sides and just being honest that the system is broken.
Nihilum will continue to throw out a fog of counter arguments to make it be perceived that people want to take over Nihilum's crown of farming all of the dragons but really it is much larger than that - but I believe just judging by the questions Nilbog asked, he really has no idea of how guilds have grown/contested/fallen on this box and really no concept of how things run here - so we can only hope that teams will address some of these issues and move on !

Azrael doesn't exist as a raiding guild right now. A month ago they would have. The resistance was strong and is in a down cycle once again, like always. Asking why Azrael didn't kill a dragon is like asking why Flowers, AIM Chat, Charles Bronson didn't get a target. There is literally like 1 full group per guild playing at a time.

It's pretty simple that the rule set doesn't allow for a second opposition guild, hence every former guild leader/guild core has joined Nihi or quit.

There is 3 guilds contesting VP on blue, they have a rule set that fosters competition and other tactics than mass recruit and zerg heads up in a frustrating boring and one sided battle.
If the resistance can't improve in any way to improve their success they quit - I mean read Rexx's quotes - I made a thread about it, he joined Nihilum.

I am saying that a resistance guild can still operate with smaller numbers and have a chance - obviously more people helping the better your odds.
But with no variance, numbers are the only odds - everything else is static. Very one dimensional, the group pvp isn't skill based, and it comes down to who has more numbers, and more people willing to go the full 8 hours it was required to contest every 3 days, which are obviously going to gravitate to the #1 spot.

And I am telling you Variance gives you a worse chance to get mobs. Yes you might luck into sneaking behind our backs and killing some mob before we know about it. (Hence since we dont know there wont be PVP).
However knowing the time/date when something spawns gives you the MAX chance to get a mob and the greatest chance for PVP. Just got work know what you are doing. Stasis you might know something about 1v1 pvp but you don't know very much about organizing a guild that is for sure from your post.

Azrael doesn't exist as a raiding guild right now. A month ago they would have. The resistance was strong and is in a down cycle once again, like always. Asking why Azrael didn't kill a dragon is like asking why Flowers, AIM Chat, Charles Bronson didn't get a target. There is literally like 1 full group per guild playing at a time.
i'm not up to date on azrael tbh and state of server, my playtime currently is spotty. alls i remember is you guys had a decent force last two months and were downing targets and gaining momentum.

Killed like 10 of your members that fight, good old Nihilum C-team - too bad those losses usually bring out the real members who carry the guild(NOT YOU LOL)

I told him good fight and it ended there - you're the one who keeps bringing it up.
People say Nizz is bad, I think he's always been good, on his druid or monk - maybe I'm just not as good as others who knows.

I was in TS when this happened and I remember exactly your comments and how it came off as...
I remember thinking man, he is mad. Maybe I should have just told Nizzar to forfeit.
After that loss you did not log in until you did one day to join Heresy.

no fucking way im gonna read through 15 pages of QQ, ill reply to the OP though after having ready through the first few pages.
The reason for variance on blue is because thats how it was on blue servers, initially thought out - i suppose - to make it less likely for one guild to get all the stuff locked down. I also assume that is the reason why you want it on R99.
Now the reality on B99 is a different one though, if you played on blue you will notice that everything is in fact locked down by one guild most of the time. And they achieve this through massive massive poopsocking, ie. spacing out the spawns out over several days and then sit for many hours on the top of each spawn waiting for it to pop.
Alot of the people who previously played on blue do not enjoy sitting on their asses for hours to kill mobs. This includes people in all guilds. However who do you think will be best at doing it if we had to ? the group of people that grinded to max level in days and have the majority of high playtime people, or the people who may not even still be max levelled ?
I think the answer is pretty straight forward. Now, every now and again we hear complains that nihilum recruits too much. Well that has to do with the player turn over in this game, and the top guild will recruit what it takes to remain the top guild. Go examine every server of every comparable online game ever... its just how it is. Imagine if the GMs give in to the variance complains, the burnout rate in Nihilum is gonna be maybe twice of what it is now. which will lead to even more aggressive recruiting... all the while we will still kill 99,9 % of the mobs.
So if your argument is that it cant get worse cause we are already killing 99,9 % of the mobs, then you are likely right in the sense that we wont be getting more mobs than we currently do (all), but we will hurt the opposition even worse than today and the server population will decrease relatively rapidly through higher player turn over rates in nihilum and an increasingly more frustrated opposition.

You were in TS, just not during the fight.
Also i forgot about Classic since it lasted about a week.

...or in short, you need more people on the server to compete, not fewer. Variance will bring fewer people.

I may have sounded bitter after I don't know, I mean I was 59, didn't bother getting 60 - I didn't argue the rules of boulders being allowed which was a huge favor to barbs.
I mean if I cared so much you'd think I would level bow skill up or something - eh whatever maybe my entire opinion on variance is due to losing a one sided duel, suuure.

Bow damage is pretty sad here, not that it matters.

This is what caused your hatred for Nihilum which is why you have the stance on Variance. You know Variance will just require us to play a ton more making it less fun for everyone and greifing us.
You then plan to play on T99 leaving your mess behind..

Lol you mean when I was at the office holding a meeting and trying to keep you away from discing on some random sitting caster in tox?
Grasping at straws man...

Atleast you got oxygen on the way to work?
Oh no..you work from home, don't you?
I like how Retti has nothing to do with Nihi success and acts like he's one of them now - bitch pls, you're just a bitch out - nothing more, stop the act.
it's not an act...they believe

The only PvP I seek on this server is guild pvp.
I do not find enjoyment griefing lvl 52's trying to lvl in COM nor does that amount to any skill.
Interesting considering you killed and farmed a level 53 for 3 kills Monday.

also for the love of god enable 2 boxing, it's not like nihilums 50x2 numbers gonna change anything for them, but smaller guilds can get shit done, why cant we have 2 boxing on red99? blue get spell ducking and a lot of other things because of no obvious reason, we have other issues here thus we should get 2boxing to solve our population issue.
pras
Yeah I played for a bit without boxing /wrist
