bards-cap the swarm #

[Grobb 1999]

Cap the number of mobs their songs hit, I'm sure we can find a number between what a normal everyday classic Bard could do and what I'm seeing on this server with a few bards griefing players by pulling half the zone across people's camps.

1- the stuff I watched in lake of ill omen is not classic. I played classic and the mechanics were different. I'm not quit sure how since I have not played a Bard on this server but they are different.

2- no class/player should be able to do shit that the entire zone is filing a petition on one person because he is effecting everyone's game play

3- it's a private server, all arguments for this nonsense are retarded.

[Champion_Standing]

+1 for bard wipe

[myriverse]

Just take their extras.

[Ezalor]

i've never been affected by this since bards only really kite in 2-3 zones that are shitty zones for anyone that's not a bard

are you making a conscious decision to travel to a zone you know bards will be in just so you can get butthurt?

[Aviann]

Just take their extras.

I got petitioned on my rogue for looting corpses within 15 seconds of them rotting while some bard kited in OT, and the GM took his side and told me if I kept on I'd be suspended. Pissy bards can suck a chode. Cool bards are cool though

You mean 2 zones almost every players hits while leveling or questing? LoIO and Overthere?

You keep derp'herping my crazy Dimond

[Samoht]

Yeah, don't listen to Bobby Hill. Everybody goes to LOIO. Snack earrings and hidden bracers are too important to pass up. And then some people even come back in their 50s.

[Ezalor]

LoIO has a negative experience modifier and ot is an awful option for leveling

it's a private server, so all of your points are worthless. OP confirmed fat jelly undergeared druid who gets upset when people only tip him 25pp for a port. destined to join some low-level class R guild and think he's hot shit for landing a nuke on ixiblat fir

[Oleris]

cap it at 150 mobs.

[Glenzig]

cap it at 150 mobs.

They should just say that they capped it at some totally ridiculous number like that.
"Yeah we capped that at 200 mobs guys. Seriously."
I would love to see the threads after people inevitably tried to test the cap #.

[Jimjam]

LoIO has a negative experience modifier and ot is an awful option for leveling

yIkesNah, LOIO is so awesome the negative modifier is a good thing as it means you can spend even longer there!!!(!)

[Ravager]

Sol A > LOIO for both loot and exp. You'll load up on enough ore to cover whatever you might make on a bracer or ring if you're even lucky enough to get one. Not to mention Sol A has no bards and some decent gear.

Sarnak Earring of Station is trash that will wind up rotting in your bank once you realize you'd rather use those slots for HP/MR 99% of the time.

Lower Guk > OT for loot and exp. No bards and you can actually prepare yourself for end game zones like Seb.

If you're looking for easy stuff to quad or just kill a mob or two every few minutes so you can do chores while you're medding, there's a thousand better places than the shitty zones Bards use.

But none of this will matter in a few months.

[Baler]

Bards ruin zones. If a bard is taking mobs from your camp report them.

+1 for banning all bards.

[Samoht]

Sarnak Earring of Station is trash that will wind up rotting in your bank once you realize you'd rather use those slots for HP/MR 99% of the time.

Because every level 20 has enough money for Earring of Essence, right?

[Ezalor]

sure buddy, lemme go dig it up for ya

[Samoht]

ask zander. i've ran into that piece of shit pulling the entire fort more than once.

[Tasslehofp99]

You mean 2 zones almost every players hits while leveling or questing? LoIO and Overthere?

You keep derp'herping my crazy Dimond

I never leveled in either of these zones on p99 because I learned during live that they are the shittiest exp spots for their respective level ranges.

You know you can just pick mobs off of bards kites right? They aren't allowed to monopolize entire zones or areas of zones, this is against the PNP.

[Ravager]

Because every level 20 has enough money for Earring of Essence, right?

Nope. But every level 20 has enough plat for an Alligator Tooth Earring which I'd wear over a Sarnak Earring of Station.

Diamondine Earrings and Platinum Bloodstone Earrings are attainable, especially if you're not wasting time camping some shit earring that's ultimately going to rot in your bank and instead spend your time in zones that don't suck for loot and exp.

Hell, you could camp Gargoyles and Mammoths for the levels you'd spend in LOIO chasing that trash and get yourself Earring of Essence and Black Sapphire Earring and have enough left over for other shit. Waste that time in LOIO and you'd be lucky to see one earring drop.

[Samoht]

Someone sounds salty. Are you upset that you never got a pair?

[Ravager]

Someone sounds salty. Are you upset that you never got a pair?

I'm salty I wasted my time and they're wasting two slots in my bank.

[katrik]

Go level somewhere else. So tired of seeing this shit, and nobody is going to change it.

[Pringles]

[MaCtastic]

I don't get it.. If you don't like it just PvP them. Oh, come to Red, we do t have this problem.

[jarshale]

Will continue to swarm, no fucks given.

[zanderklocke]

ask zander. i've ran into that piece of shit pulling the entire fort more than once.

Again, I asked you in the last thread if I could reimburse you for any trouble I evidently caused in the past, but you never sent me a forums message?

Let me know if you want to be reimbursed for whatever I did or if you can give me the names of others I need to reimburse for problems I might have caused.

[Champion_Standing]

Why wait? Petition as soon as you see them on /who

[Tiggles]

If you level in OT or LOIO and your not being PLd or maaayybe quading bloodgills then your a fucking horrible player.

Level in dungeons better xp loot and no bards. Plus it makes you a better player.

[Rararboker]

I'll have to agree here. LoIo and OT are trash all around. Wasted time lvling there myself until someone clued me in on better spots. Which people in this thread have already done. Take the advice and profit.

Or sit here and whine. I'll make sure greengrocer drops off some cheese.

[Colgate]

nothing gets my nostalgia going like leveling in OT and LoIO to simulate being ignorant as fuck about this game

shit's classic

[Secrets]

not
classic

[applesauce25r624]

they see me swarmin'

they hatin'

[Pookieson]

Yea, umm, if you think OT and LOIO are great xp you suck at life. Go to an old world dungeon until you can go to CoM at 40. Lguk, Unrest, Mistmoore, Highkeep; these are epic xp dungeons, and will actually challenge you as a player and prepare you for shit like KC and Seb, where you will be worthless if youve done nothing but fight in a wide open field with little consequence for shitty pulls, etc. Man up.

And on the topic of bards, there are literally a handful of zones that they can do that in, and as stated above, they suck for group XPing. Go to a dungeon. Or, stop whining. You are literally causing problems for no reason, in my opinion, youre in their stomping ground causing problems. They have the right away.

[YendorLootmonkey]

http://everquest.allakhazam.com/forum.html?forum=1&mid=10850025886627980#5

They first introduced the concept of chase range with the Kunark expansion. I remember on a couple occasions, having to just camp out in LoIO back then because somehow I'd gotten social agro to spread to most of the goblins in the zone. Since they wander around, what was happening was that at random intervals 2-3 goblins would suddeny appear on a hillside makeing a run straight towards me. It *really* sucks when this happens, and will eventually lead to a wipe if you don't take steps to clear agro (zone or camp).

[katrik]

If they banned bard kiting, that would probably be the nail in the coffin for me. Not like I log on much anyway. =/

[citizen1080]

Let me summarize every bard thread.

"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah"

Yours Truly

Bob the Bard

[bktroost]

I think it's really unfair that my mage can't heal like clerics can. It effects everyone at the raid when we are trying to kill a target and my mage can't do a CH like a cleric can. If only the clerics would just go away then I wouldn't have to worry about all that healing craziness and be reminded that I can't do it...because i'm not a cleric. You know, clerics should have to solo with a pet like me. GMs, can you please tell these clerics that if they don't start using their pets to solo then I'm going to petition them. It's really unfair that the cleric class makes it possible to kill raid targets and my mage class can't do that.

[Champion_Standing]

Well now we wouldn't want someone who barely plays here to quit would we.

[mutonizer]

Simple really.

If a bard does it but doesn't bother anyone and/or is careful with other players, who cares really.
If a bard does it and someone has a problem with it, ask the bard to stop. This should be the first option for anyone having issues with it to limit GM/guide work: talking first.
If a bard does it, refuses to listen and basically doesn't care, petition him to get him suspended/banned.

The current server rules already consider swarm kitting (by default, even if the bard is alone in the zone), as zone disruption ("Monopolizing/Engaging/Occupying most or all of the mobs in a non-raid area. This can be with or without intent to kill." (http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2651)) so if you have a problem, just petition to get him suspended/banned via the report forum (since logs need to be checked), just like you would someone who's training you on purpose.

This is what will happen after the cap.
Bard pulls, and takes 20min longer to kill spawns.

[loramin]

Is LOIO a terrible zone? Of course.

Can you use better zones and level on P99 without ever even seeing a bard? Yes, and you should.

Can you use terrible zones like LOIO and petition bards that are a problem? Yes, and you should (petition bards, not use terrible zones).

But let's not forget: this server is all about nostalgia. Everyone knows bards weren't like this on live, and if P99 really is about re-creating classic EverQuest then it doesn't matter how terrible of a zone LOIO is, bard kiting should still be fixed.

[Pokesan]

Again, I asked you in the last thread if I could reimburse you for any trouble I evidently caused in the past, but you never sent me a forums message?

I don't like you. Can I have some money please?

So did bards just not do it or is there some substantive difference between the game versions that allows it?

And in regard to making it as classic-like as possible, pretty sure I could drop coins back then.

[Shaniril]

multiple characters, 3 years of playing on p99... not once have I leveled in these two zones. They are terrible areas an you are a terrible person for trying to exp in them.

#FreeTheSwarm

[bktroost]

It's the same argument for chardok aoe. Why in the world would anyone legitimately be in that zone to group xp? Chardok aoe is the best exp in the game and made that zone's mob population relevant. There are zones that are good for certain things and classes that have certain niches. Let's let skilled players do their thing. It's a perfect match.

Explore, get some loot for themselves, chill out, whatever they want really.

Personally have no problem with Chardok AE or Bard swarming, to each his own, but the moment these impact other people in any way shape or form, these (AE and Swarming) are the ones who need to give way, no matter the reason, since they are the ones creating the issue in the first place.
If it can be worked out by simple dialog, then fine, but if it can't, Swarm or Chardok AE need to gtfo or get petitioned. Easy.

[Wrench]

dont care about chardok or bard aoe, but stop with the bullshit

chardok is like 1 of maybe 3 55-60 groupable dungeons in game right now, and same zem as seb and hs, dont be fucking stupids and say why would anyone xp there

[Rararboker]

When AE isn't happening the zone is still empty. Before AE started zone was empty.

Don't see how that statement is 'stupid'. Calling it stupid is actually pretty stupid.

perhaps people dont group there because the culture has changed? i grouped there on p99 back before it became popular to aoe there, i think maybe when sf aoe was a thing

i grouped there back in classic, and groups happen there on red all the time

perhaps you havent been here long enough, seen enough, or are just stupid yourself, not sure

[Daena]

I don't know why people say OT is terrible. Sure exp there is far from good, but consider the following:

Many higher level players have OT hammers, thus there's constant influx of them. It lets new wizards and druids make cash selling ports. It's a great place to quad and do animal charm exp. You will often have high level clerics rezzing for free or some small fee.

I have leveled my druid there 34-45 quickly, made decent cash selling ports, and I nearly always had c1/c2. When I died there usually was a rez.
Now good luck getting a PuG for a place like Sol A, especially if you play not-so-wanted class.

As for bards I surely never seen them pull entire zones on live. Just never happened. However I'm fine with them as long as they don't play like an asshole.

There have been several occasions on p99 where chardok AoE wasn't possible. Once or twice because pathing code was changed. Once or twice because resist code was changed. On all of these occasions there was still no normal groups in chardok. So I am not sure what you're talking about.

Pretty sure that doesn't mean I am stupid. Likely means you are though. That or you're just completely clueless.

[JonnyX]

Lol... Will these threads ever stop? Half the server is outta control these days with the bard hate. I have literally zoned into places un-anon before and instantly been petitioned...by people I have never met, know nothing about me, what I am doing there, if I am even a powerleveler, etc... FFS people, have a little common courtesy to at least shoot these bards a tell or something before you just petition them.

If they are going to cap bards swarms, its whatev. First try making it so players accounts only get 1 petition per month so they are forced to actually speak to people first instead of just being a d-bag though. Granted there are gonna be some bards who are just chumps, but most aren't and will work something out. Also, give the bard at LEAST 5-10min to respond. If you are pissed they took "to many mobs" and wanna try to come to an agreement, give them a minute to respond because they generally can't type in the middle of a swarm.

Entitled douche for thinking you can engage in anti social behavior and demand that others take the responsibility for dealing with it on terms that you find ideal.

Maybe you wouldn't have so many problems with it if you didn't engage in the anti social behavior in the first place, but I guess that conclusion would be expecting too much from a P99 Bard.

You should really send a tell to everyone in zone and ask if its cool if you kite a reasonable amount of mobs. If even one person has a problem with it, leave and come back when the zone is empty. If the zone is never empty, you should try finding a group with people who have an innate aversion to any class with a penalty that isn't completely optimal for their desired grinding local.

[Nirgon]

There's such a thing as karma for being a shit face here

Who knows, one day your guild will fracture and most of your pals get into the new top guild but you were such a scumbag to certain other people with high holdings... you don't make the cut into the new merger

Rep matters, just be absolutely certain what bridges you burn are for the right reasons and not just completely motivated by greed and ego

Be men about it, even if there isn't a rule forcing you

This guy...says bards are the whining victims, yet who are the people making these posts every other week?

Back to what i was saying earlier before you twisted it to fit your own prerogative. If bards are swarming, send em a tell, if they dont respond in a few minutes or just tell you to screw off, petition them. All I am saying is act like a decent human being and talk to them first because chances are, they are just as decent and will back off your camp/area you're at. Nothing worse than swarming a nearly empty zone, people show up (bard doesnt notice), suddenly people are whining in OOC or petitioning before the bard even knows wtf is going on. If they continue to kite/swarm/ruin your camps/etc with total disregard to your day, petition away. 90% are cool enough to back off though.

[dafier]

if you didnt kill it, its not yours, they can let it rot and you dont have a right to shit

always been the rule follow the rules

I do not believe that. There is a reason a mob opens to FFA loot after a period of time. The Devs did that. If you don't want your stuff looted, simply tell the person once. If they don't listen, screen cap, petition and get the person in trouble.

If they listen, then all good.

The other day a bard was kiting in FV with a druid. Level 40, 41 and 42. All within a VERY short period of time. The mass amounts of Drovargs...it was crazy. All druid did was loot everything. It was a good way to avoid that situation. :)

[dafier]

My only complaint is the bard was a douche and kept trying to kite his mobs on the cliffs where I and others were. I guess he was hoping to get people killed? I don't know. There was absolutely no reason for him to do that.

Well it's definitely your fault for exping outdoors, not announcing your intent to exp in the zone, and not sending said bard a tell and allowing him at least 10 minutes to respond.

Better make an alt to sit in those zones so that before you travel there you can log in and talk to any bards swarming first. Don't forget they need that extra time to respond so you'll need to dedicate at least 30 mins before you start exping outdoors to negotiating with bards, possibly over an hour if there is more than one bard to talk to.

You are mistaken. P99 rules on loot are not identical to EQ back in the day. Here, if you kill the mob the loot belongs to you, regardless whether it's Trakanon or an orc pawn. If you bother to take the time and search the forums you will find multiple posts by the GMs confirming that policy, IIRC the most recent was by Eunomia to a thread here in RnF. Unless the soloer/group/raidleader who killed it allows you, looting any mob's corpse is petitionable. #saveourclothcapsfromninjalooters

Are you finished now? I want to give you the opportunity to continue your whiney victim party before I start shit taking you again.

A man with zero ability to rationalize kindergarten level reasoning. Why so salty bro? Was it a bard? I bet a bard had something to do with it...

[Haynar]

I do not believe that. There is a reason a mob opens to FFA loot after a period of time. The Devs did that. If you don't want your stuff looted, simply tell the person once. If they don't listen, screen cap, petition and get the person in trouble.

If they listen, then all good.

The other day a bard was kiting in FV with a druid. Level 40, 41 and 42. All within a VERY short period of time. The mass amounts of Drovargs...it was crazy. All druid did was loot everything. It was a good way to avoid that situation. :)
If you did not kill it, do not loot it.

If it decays, that is the choice of the person who killed it.

If you loot kills that are not yours, without permission, that is ninja looting. Which is a bannable offense.

Those are the rules.

Holy shit is this kid for real? If you're balling so hard at work why are you wasting your time here?

Maybe you should put your amazing professional drive to work at not being a jackass, or maybe a girlfriend.

All i did was call one guy out for being entitled expecting that everyone else should go through an involved process just to make sure they aren't inconveniencing him when he gets petitioned for taking over an entire zone and you all got rustled as fuck.

Also was a relatively slow day at work, never claimed to be balling just to have a real job. Sorry if I upset you kiddo, it will be alright.

On either server you shouldn't be leveling in OT or LOIO either way.

Copy that.

[nyclin]

saying that people shouldn't level in OT or LOIO if they don't want to be harassed by bards is literally the same as saying that a sexually liberated woman was "asking for it" when she gets raped

o Sexual Abuse or Harassment - untoward and/or unwelcome advances of a graphic and sexual nature. This includes, but is not limited to, virtual rape, overt sexual overtures, and stalking of a sexual nature.


Clearly states no sexual abuse in PNP

[nyclin]

bard kiting is literally virtual rape, therefore it is against the PNP

[Bilbik]

yea guys, 16yr old elf sim mobs same as RL rape

duh

I see this type of insult a lot of these forums, so maybe you can explain it to me.

Why does it matter that this game is an elf sim or that it's 16 years old? Are pixels in new games more precious to people versus "old" pixels?

Really it's just jealousy, as a 54 bard I know it's very difficult to kite every mob in the Zone, trust me I have tried hundreds of times. It may be a bit slower when bards are around, but so is GUKTOP during peak hours. You're just jealous when you us mowing down nearly a hundred mobs in the time you kill 8. So the real bad guy here is your parents and their inability to teach you how to cope with jealousy. Not bards...

Yes, we can see how you were jealous enough of bards that you "have tried hundreds of times" to measure up to the idols of your envy. Has it occurred to you that if your failed attempt to generalize from that single case were actually true there would be 1800 bards logged on simultaneously at peak times?

[andrew23]

Apparently your assuming that everyone suffers from Bard envy. I didn't suggest that at all, I just stated that those who find the topic angering enough to come on RNF and post (for the 900th time) might suffer from some sort of envy. And my first and main character was a bard so your accusation doesn't stand. But even if I did make a bard due to seeing something I liked, and wanted to emulate. That's a better response than be a whinning bitch about it.

Really? Here's your post, quoted in its entirety again:

Retcon failure, try again. Or better yet, don't. Your self-serving :umadbro: counter-whines are just as ignorant and entitled as those of the bard-haters.

[andrew23]

Thats a great perspective. However my counter whines are warranted after 13 pages of bullshittery. I never stated I was above whinning. After a few years of the same rants and flames of bard bitching. I decided to jump in. Which doesnt make any of my points any less valid.

[nyclin]

I sexually Identify as a Kiting Bard. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of soaring over the Overthere dropping hot sticky trains on disgusting Druids sitting at the Skyfire zoneline. People say to me that a person being a Kiting Bard is Impossible and I'm fucking retarded but I don't care, I'm beautiful. I'm having a plastic surgeon install 8 spell slots, a Lute of the Howler and Singing Short Swords on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me "Zandercocke" and respect my right to kite every fucking mob in your zone. If you can't accept me you're a bardiphobe and need to check your mobcount privilege. Thank you for being so understanding.

You are lucky to be alive after those years of "bard bitching" the suffering you have had to endure is unimaginable I'm sure. Glad you made it through bud.

i've never been affected by this since bards only really kite in 2-3 zones that are shitty zones for anyone that's not a bard
