Do i need to respect a "camp" when a dude can't handle the mobs he says he can? I ran by gnolls at splitpaw, waited for the guy to kill one of the two mobs in front of him. He of course didn't get up, decided to run to another pillar killed a mob and then killed one of the pathers the goes by his spire while he still hadn't pulled the static spawn.


Guessing i'll get a suspension, but really was just running around killing blues.

so he was just sitting in front of them and not killing them, but killing other spawns?

I don't see the issue

Story seems vague.

EQ is a game that works best when we communicate...send him a tell, ask him if you can take a mob. We're all pals here <3

Correct me if I'm wrong but CC is just a courtesy.

If the dude isn't directly on the spawn point killing the mobs he claims he's camping, they are fair game.

I have NEVER treated the whole Spires as one camp. Nobody that is getting XP can kill all the mobs that spawn there. You are either totally OOM or Health or both. Take one side have him take the other side. :p

Blue needs a second server. With the stipulation that playing both blue boxes would be bannable. If you feel like you need to report yourself for killing the two mobs left in a zone that aren't being locked down, I think its getting to the point that a second server is maybe needed.

I report myself all the time. Just yesterday a mob spawned and I had to med first, but a shaman desired the camp.

I petitioned my ass into a straight up suspension for that.

Never meditate for the next kill if a solo class desires your camp. Attempt it and die to forfeit it or hand it over, attempting to sit is punished severely.

But really.

A split server for the first few months of Velious to minimize shitting in a sock would be helpful. Or just a way to boot you off if your account has been active for more than 12 hours that day.

We'll have years to enjoy Velious content though, won't we?

Who had the first manastone on blue? First pair of jboots?

Chances are nobody remembers and nobody cares... plenty of time for your pixel camps, and we'll all get to raid I'm sure.

Maybe I'm just not as hyped as everyone else :p

After more than a year of beta testing, I've seen almost everything I've wanted to see.

True, very True. Not going to be Virgin stuff to a lot of people. :D

On classic, we used to have each spire be a camp (as well as the hill) and wanderers were FFA

I would rather see no MQ of Velious quest armor. Arena and HoT will probably be perma farmed

For some reason I thought there weren't "camps" in outdoor zones. If the mob is up and you pull it, it's yours. If you want to call a "camp" - pull the mob when it pops or run the risk of someone else pulling it first.

AC in OOT, Hadden etc... you can tell if someone's on it.

Roaming mobs aren't so easy though, and that's where it becomes very grey (South Ro AC, anyone?)

This may be true, but I have a good example. Grimalkins at the WM in LOIO. They are outdoor mobs and path, but they can be "camped". Although it may not be against the rules to come in and take the mobs, it's indecent to say the least. A druid can comfortably hold the 4 Grims that spawn there with no issue, but I've had other people come in and randomly kill them. Thats classic EQ (Blue) I guess.

My experience is, except for zones that get way overcrowded, people who are exp'ing tend to respect and help each other. Just communicate.

Teams pvp should be happening eventually. Not a blue server obviously, but the teams will provide some safety and stuff. Honestly dunno why you'd want another server exactly like one of the two we already have. At least push for a RP server or something, if it's blue!

Whoever made this call all those years ago got it completely wrong, and opened the door for scumbags of norrath to roam to halls of KC and snipe whatever mobs they want because nothing is considered a camp.

Outdoor stuff can camped just as much as indoor stuff. the fact that a mob happens to be outside is completely arbitrary.

this is the correct answer.

I give "static" outdoor pops a minute to be pulled out of courtesy for whoever is "camping" them. After that they're up for grabs
