View Full Version : Variance, where art thou?

So we showed up to tuesday's repop. 9 Hokuten in rags ready to attempt faydedar at 8AM an hour after the mass repops started. We go there and the mob was already dead to nihilum. This is exactly why we need variance. If 1 giant guild just takes all the pixels and schedules it all in 1 day it makes the server a deserted place to place for 6 days straight. If variance were implemented then the server would be flooded with players 7 days a week.

Not to mention Nihilum's goal is to cockblock every guild by taking every pixel for themselves forcing smaller guilds to dissolve and have a few leech into Nihilum.

My vote is for variance +/- 72 hours on 7 day raid targets and +/-16 hours on 3 days raid targets. This will boost the pop, force more guilds to arise and make the server a much better experience for everybody.

It looks like you have leveled up some good Nihilum recruits.

What do you expect? Its filled with children who love the attention they recieve when they annoy others.

Thus the reason they keep doing it.

eq was not designed to play without pvp.

I would never do anything but fight for my raid encounters.

I don't think variance is the answer, staggered spawns are in my opinion.

Tuesday was a perfect example of why variance would be bad and wouldnt work anyway.

The server restarted, which caused Fay to repop at a random time. This is exactly how variance works. We went and killed fay at some random time just as we would in variance. You and your guild showed up late just as you would in a variance situation.

Now you know the spawn time for next week. Bring your best warriors and let the best guild win the mob.

If a guild wants to compete here, their best chance will be the start of Velious. If there's 100+ Nihilum day 1, you'll see some disgruntled people in the guild, and that will be your one shot @ making a move. But it would have to be led by a non moran, prolly someone from within. Won't be me tho, I'm in full sipping margarita's mode with my good chums Elderan / The Duke / Fathead Frank / Rallyd and Ender. wish u many pixels.

variance would spread the mobs equally randomly through out the week, forcing new guilds to arise, more competition and an equal playing field.

variance is the answer we have been looking for

Ya I can tell since your 7 lvl 52s tried to pvp over faydedar.

wait what kind of retard response is "eq wasn't meant to be played without pvp"? Of course it was. That's exactly what the expressed purpose of EQ was meant for. PvP servers were an afterthought.

lets see classic servers had like 20,000 players with an avg of 1-2k on at any one time. dragons spawn every 7 days and usually don't drop what you want. only logical solution is to fight for them, thus pvp.

rotation? absurd, i'd rather play

an afterthought that had their own beta test server

cool story

After I played blue live server and had to wait in line to compete in a competitive game, it was p obvious eq was meant to have pvp.

Or you could just poopsock the spawn and then kill it, or even pvp on a pvp server for a dragon.

You're probably thinking to yourself right now, "WOW I NEVER THOUGHT OF PVPING FOR A DRAGON?!?!?!?"

Well now big Salty told you how to slay dragons.

You answered your own question.

Slay the dragon, get the loot, you might even have to pvp!!!!!

Why you beggin rogaine to change it for you so you don't have to pvp or be at a spawn when the dragon is about to pop?

Like myself, Jibeknn was in Nihi and won those "pvp" fights vs the underdogs, anyone can do it, they have the most neckbeards, and the timers are static.

We know how broken static timers are - and speak on behalf of the server health, not because we want loot or to win.

Gods work Jibekn, keep it up - most of the people that say people are begging for advantage changes are from guilds that all have fallen apart, and raged over Nihi - but now only think about themselves.

That being said I think variance should be on hold, and weekly simulated repops are much better.

I think im missing something....its Faydedar LOL who gives a damn about that tuna....should be focusing on poopsocking trak at least 6 hours in advance if you want to have a shot at gear that can actually make a difference for your guild.. Its what we did in Echoes of Elysium on Vulak Progression, all other guilds never put in the time required to kill the mobs and then bitched when they didnt get them..... time to nut up and put in some effort...you sound like the participation trophy generation
