Are now a thing on Red 99.

There will be a server wide message a couple minutes before a repop takes place. This could happen at any time of day, any day of the week.

Approximately how often will the repops occur?

02-08-2014, 02:43 PM
~1 a week, give or take.

~1 a week, give or take.

Too much...

This server already has far too high of gear concentration. At most simulated repops every 2-3 weeks.

Also question. Do the repops affect timers? Meaning if the normal timers are Tuesday morning when simulated repops happen does this change the timer?

Repops doesn't change much. Just puts more loot into the world into one guild.

I am not a fan of introducing more loot into an already small server.

Well lets see if this actually brings PvP then. I doubt it. And I assume this will be between 6am -11am eat anyway or there about, if it's to simulate actuall patches...

Either way, if it helps pop in the long run, it's a good thing... I just don't see it.

First it was guard assist. Then it was xp loss. Later it was (and still is) resists. Next it was global OOC. After that, yellow text. Then variance. At some point, a teams-ruleset server. Recently, the PNP. Now it's simulated patches.

(And of course the ceaseless whimpering for a wipe, that ever-present motif underlying this symphony of tears.)

The real question is: what "solution" to an imaginary problem will this culture of manbabies cry for next?

Ya I agree. Should be the same on blue; once every 2-3 weeks makes a lot more sense. Is insane how much the EC market has been flooded and hurting lately. Is a treacherous market for folks trying to sell things in EC.

Gratz on your simulated repops though hope it helps screw over the Nihilum Neckbeards.

Considering its a systemwide msg you have the chance to be there too. Sounds more like competition than anything else.:cool:

Any time the server full repops RD has a chance for an uncontested dragon since Nihilum can't always kill/guard all mobs simultaneously. Once we all know the timer and can contest in sequence (like at the last Faydedar) the people who usually criticize Nihilum for being too blue instead criticize Nihilum for PvPing over a dragon.

Knowing the timer for each dragon guarantees direct competition if people really wanted it.

Why do you feel the need to guard any raid mob that you arent in the process of killing at that moment?

Why do you feel the need to guard any raid mob that you arent in the process of killing at that moment?The point is to prevent opposing guilds from killing it and obtaining its loot.

I'm beginning to understand the mentality of people who play on a red server, yet feel sad/indignant/simply baffled that the dominant guild doesn't throw them any bones: They think of PvE and PvP as entirely separate concerns.

The fact is they're inseparably coupled in EQ for two reasons.


The rewards from PvE strongly affect a player's success in PvP.
Conflict is meaningless unless it's over something. Historically, that something has almost always been resources of some kind or another. Here there's only one resource: monster loot.

If you're not fighting over monster loot, what's the sense in fighting at all? For the "fun" of it? The outcome of combat in this game is usually predetermined by circumstances prior to the fight and rarely is it possible to make a comeback. Those aren't mechanics that make for a particularly fun PvP experience in and of itself, which means people who profess to play EQ for the PvP are either lying or just fools who don't realize they'd be better off in a game with more symmetrical combat.

there is no pvp when you guys show up with triple the numbers of your oppositionYou're retarded if you think that Nihilum can field 3x the opposition's numbers at a single encounter and still have the reserves needed to guard the others.

Just popping over from blue to say that the simulated repops do not change the actual
timer of the merb. So if it was spawning at 6am whenever, it will still spawn at 6am whenever.

This has been a bluebie PSA, now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

edit: Unless they change it specifically for red.
