Is tuning mobs for 90+ man forces classic?

[BardPop]

With the recent changes to Vyemm on both red and blue, it seems to be that the encounter is being tuned for raid forces that far exceed the amount it was designed for live EQ. As someone who has been a part of Vyemm raids on red since day one, I have to say-I think the current version of Vyemm is even harder then the version of Vyemm that exists on live EQ. Currently with tanks at 1350 ac even a single mistake wipes the raid on Vyemm, on either red or blue. Nether server has had much success with this mob.

Personally I think the classic Velious encounters should only as hard as they were in classic,and should not be totally re-tuned out of concern that they are not hard enough for p99s current raid force. So my question to you is this: Should classic encounters be tuned around the raid force of p99 to the point where they may be unwinnable if numbers drop to 50-60 a raid as it might in many months down the line? The current tuning makes me concerned about the difficulty of the event in the instance where guild numbers drop and either p99 is left with a "normal' raid force instead of a 100-120 man raid force. Will Vyemm be re-tuned then?

I have 5+ years to do it so I'm not rushing

Video games should be a challenge man.

Dont worry about it.

You're not at Drakar levels yet, but god damn. It's a game man.

Edit: voted for cake.

Go ahead and nail me to a cross for enjoying having a feeling of progression right now

Vyemm was a monster but need prof of what he should do when unslowed to tanks with their current gear

Same.

[Terpuntine]

Love that they cranked him up, would love if they tuned up the rest as well. Nhdc about how shit was on live crank them up.

[ClubnRed]

So from what i gather it seems like that dominating guild really does NOT want any kind of challenge. Good to know. I know who ill focus on murdering everytime i see that tag.

Dont like a challenge? I think WoW is better suited for empire

Don't think he can be slowed until later expansions with disease slow.

It seems like yall don't want the challenge.

PLEASE GO TO WOW SO I CAN PLAY EQ.

Go recruit and build an army like empire did.

WE DA BEST

[ClubnRed]

Created a ranger and BAM instantly invited to empire (less then 30 seconds in game). Man they really are trying hard to get anything they can lmao.

I will accept your challenge.

Yaw, known

Load up live and roll some 100khp a tick heal over time + heal spam on a tank with this kind of ac/HP/ac and post a few hours of parse (macros are legal on live??)

[Gnomegrown2]

no one cares what any of you think

about anything

uhh you do realize that WoW raid content, outside of LFR, is leaps and bounds more difficult than anything EQ has ever done.

The only "hard" part about EQ is the tedious leveling. You could argue that racing for mobs is difficult but that has nothing to do with the actual mechanics of the game. If raid bosses were spawnable with tokens or some shit almost every single guild that that is raid oriented would be clearing Sleepers and ToV weekly.

OK Zlandicar is left up right now go ahead

[Malevz]

OK Zlandicar is left up right now go ahead

Yelinak and Sont are up too Neno. You could go do some easy raiding and have 3 VP keys today.

Hmm interesting

Keep working on FQ. Some day you may shine

[Holey]

It's fun almost out dpsing the some rogues ny like 5k on Roy ☺️

[Nirgon]

Hmm interesting

He will be up all weekend

Good luck

[Tradesonred]

I think theyre doing a great favor for the people who tried their hardest to ruin the server. I mean what better way to help empire recruit than letting them say that the only way youll beat encounters is through a zerg. Keep up the good work

[Ragnaros]

This screams, MY ZERG CANT ZERG MOBS, MAKE IT EASIER FOR ME

Vyemm is currently tuned for NON classic content (90 plus people).

This is further backed up by the fact that Rogean bans people for twitch stream rants and the fact that there are luclin era drakes in NTOV.

i dont know vyemm, but i did go to tov durin luclin era and the best we got was an ex-indig tank ( beaounegar ) with a vindi bp and less than 50. i was a rogue hitin bs to the dragons they pulled to a corner, 16 years old. know nothing about tov but i know that.

[abbud]

At first I thought this was a blue thread posted in the wrong forum, but then I realized that blue have no problems killing him and they're actually being contested.

You are being real weird right now.

shits classic.

[XiakenjaTZ]

I don't mind the difficulty all that much but I do think the drakes that are added during Velious should be removed. It would make it easier for a 2nd guild to sneak in and get a kill on something if they had a spot to CoH to.

lol jib?

[filthyphil]

Did they increase the difficulty to match the zerg? if so the problem lies with the server, not the mobs. Red sucks, wipe it clean.

It's his server pal, he can do whatever he wants, enraging him as a guild will only put you guys under hot water.

[Gustoo]

Hey while you're arbitrarily changing velious dragon difficulty to suit your mood could you maybe fix epic mage pet resists so it doesn't react to spells like a green con rat?

cool thanks!

I completely agree with this 100% rock solid logic

but sadly staff never accepts this kind of reasoning

Sektor is the worst suck-up on these forums, he doesnt even try to be subtle about it.

[Tradesonred]

For my part maybe i was a tad harsh on named mobs getting boosted. They probably mean well, to slow down gear progression but like someone said that just means other crews dont get a shot at sniping them unless they have similar roster numbers. Servers a big ole mess, wish they would start a discord server so i could casually fuck around.

[LostCause]

you know the drill get crootin.

[Telron]

I'm not sure what content could be hard here for 90 ppl lol. Sept sleeper / AOW...

Stupid auto correct

[Telron]

Heres a thought. Take those 90 ppl and go pvp around Norrath. Could be fun... i dont think they drop loot though...

baeee

[Evia]

I'm all about keeping it classic. So in my opinion I dislike this change. I thought it was all about delivering a classic experience regardless of pretty much any circumstance?

[DRAGONBAIT]

well im all up for classic, but its 2015 so if we can fix encounters be it plz
