The execution, mobilization and near flawless play of this latest repop is the reason why Aftermath is the number one guild on Project 1999. We don't need to use bombastic stats and half truths to try to convince ourselves were the best, we execute.

Don't believe us? Come join the fun and find out for yourselves! In a mere 3 hours, we managed to mobilize in and out of ToV, to Kael, Fear, Icewell Keep and VP Keep killing all the premiere targets available!

Okay, here's Tempest's lengthy and girthy kill list from a couple cycles ago on a good week of Everquest with my buds in 2018 on a server locked at Velious (red text means they're from the original continents):

Vulak
Dozekar the Cursed
Avatar of War
Statue of Rallos Zek
King Tormax
Lord Yelinak
Lord Vyemm
Kriezenn
Gozz
Feshlak
Cekenar
Zlexak
Telk
Lady Mirenella
Ikky
Eashen
ST and Fear Golems
Lord Pickclaw
Emperor Crush
Terrorantula
an ancient cyclops x3
Dorn
GORE

I'm not sure what the other guys got but maybe they'll compile a comprehensive list; it was definitely one of their worst weeks in recent history. Here's the truth of it though, these things go back and forth. There's good weeks and bad weeks, but even on a bad week we can still nab the best mobs in the game.

Join <Tempest> and you can play with half the people but double the fun! (https://forums.p99tempest.com/)

Pretty much every Live server was the same..... 1 guild became super dominant and if you wanted to do the raids you where either in that guild or not. I don't see why P99 would be any different...The server i came from (Povar) it was Triton, and if you where not in Triton congratz you got to wait for the next expansion to see the previous expansions raid content

Sure P99 with its super elongated life time guilds may come and go as the hardcore members burn out and leave/retire and other guilds will still get raid targets killed... the nature of P99 raiding is a little bit different and its exceedingly difficult to have a raid force at all big targets instantly especially during a re-pop

Running a race and expecting a tie is just silly.... there will always be a winner

On Torv server I played, Blades of Wrath was basically the top guild there with Monolith a close second at that point in time. One of their leaders, Kilogramm, posted web cam pics of some chick giving him a BJ as he was raiding sleepers tomb.

I especially hate people who look down on people in the service industry. I’ve done that work long enough to experience the absolute worst of the beast that is the entitled, all-consuming American shopper. That being said, cashiers who don’t greet you or say thank you are bad at their jobs, severely piss me off, and I’m always glad to help share some unsolicited pointers. Why? Because I’m an American shopper, too.

Did they tire of hearing you coming unglued, yelling into voice coms at all hours of the night? Jerk off on your moms decorative bath towels while too many times?

It is known that Jimjam's links contain 80% more hepatitis A though F.

Though this link appears to be a harmless Roblox reference, it does seem my computer now has herpes.

Thank you, Jimjam.

heyyy don't hate on pizza delivery lol. I did it in college and with tips, paycheck, and the amount i was getting for mileage i made about 20 bucks and hour total. And that was back in like 2004. Most of it in untaxable cash money.

Sure it aint the best in the world. But that's not a bad chunk o change for a pretty chill job. Must be must easier now with GPS being much more available.

I worked for Domino's in my early 20s before I got my shit together and went to college. It was a job, but far from a good one.

So why do you look here and post if it's beneath 98% of your guild?

I miss playing with you!

In case anyone didn't know, Aalpha is one of the best looking people on the server and he has a twin brother who is also one of the best looking people on the server by default, I'm assuming. Aalpha also has a giant black cat which is pretty cool IMO.

It's 4x per kill sure, but we pay 400 DKP for a guild bot whereas Tempest pays 5500 DKP - almost 14x as much - and we all know that's the real way the top earners are making their DKP.

You have to attend 275 successful kills to make the same DKP as leveling one bot.

At an optimistic 10 kills per cycle, that's 27 cycles (~6 months) that average Joe Raider needs to maintain 100% raid attendance, just to equal the same DKP someone can make running in circles in Dragon Necropolis for a few days.

How can you compete with that whilst maintaining life as a mentally healthy adult?



I'm not sure what these claims are referring to?

Here is our DKP system:


Most kills net you 5 DKP.
Failed kills net you 2 DKP.
We pay so little DKP for guild bots nobody can be bothered to level them.


For the audience watching the mudslinging from both sides, here's how it works in Aftermath:

The majority of our members sit somewhere around 25% raid attendance and will earn in the region of 200-400 DKP per month. These are people that never track targets, they do not stare at walls for 16 hours a day, they do not sit on a COTH mage watching to respond to a screen flicker. The raid when they want to, or they group, XP or go outside when they don't want to raid. They just want to experience the high end content and have a fair chance at some godly loot.

Here's a small selection of items that have all gone for 100-300 DKP in the past few months:

Within one month of casual raiding with Aftermath you will have earned enough for one or more items like that.

Since May, we have had 2,063 items drop that have been bid via DKP, of which approximately 80% were won for 300 DKP or less. In fact half went for less than 100 DKP.

We have around 150 active members, meaning that's an average of ~14 items each. Yes we have a lot of mouths to feed...but we feed them. Our average attendance per raid is ~50, depending on the time/day/target.

What does that mean? In Aftermath, you can be winning your own BIS loot with just a couple of weeks of casual raiding.

Yes, those ultra rare items like Gharn's Rock of Smashing (https://wiki.project1999.com/Gharn%27s_Rock_of_Smashing) or Sal`Varae`s Robe of Darkness (https://wiki.project1999.com/Sal%60Varae%60s_Robe_of_Darkness) go for a lot of DKP, but they are the drops some people prioritise and save all of their DKP for. The difference with Aftermath is those people don't hoard all of the loot from their guildmates in the process, and they don't disband once they've earned it :)

We are also the only guild that regularly contests all high-tier raid targets across all zones. We go for ToV, we go for city leaders, we go for Gods, we go for Veeshan's Peak, we go Sleeper's Tomb golems and -yes- we go for the occasional Trakanon.

As a result of this we have a reputation for being ruthless when we raid. We mobilise quickly, we jump past other guilds and we will snipe kills.

One thing that we always strive to do is play fair.


We do not intentionally aggro Aary guards and consistently train them on our oppositions pullers at Eashen to kill their secondaries and secure mobs. We do not do this to such an extent that five different pullers have been caught on five separate occasions on five different targets.
We do not use raid interference tactics such as opening trades to block click-fest turn-ins for FTE.
We do not have people dumping so much aggro into the opposition mobs that they are summoned to that mob above their own DPS when that mob is at 60%.
We do not unilaterally end player agreements and claim they were ended two months previously, despite adhering to them for every cycle in the interim. Nor do we abort a pull of their rotated target and have our raid force immediately log out when the that guild logs in to record what is happening.
We do not drop mod rods near AFK players at zone lines so we can claim raid interference.
We do not wipe to Zlexak in the entrance of ToV, train an opposing guild and kill half of them, then claim that it was a "clean disengage" and we were not at fault.
We do not get another guild's COTH mage killed by one of our pulls, refuse to rez them, then leave our mage logged in to block their attempts to rez themselves despite there being no other targets in window. And if our mage were to get unintentionally killed by them during their recovery, we would not keep it a secret and file a petition a week later to have that person eat a 30 day suspension.
We do not carefully filter fraps through officers before releasing select clips or edits to the wider members to paint a desired narrative.
We do not censor members who wish to talk to friends in other guilds, or have friendly banter with opposing pull teams, or who wish to waste their lives on RnF. We do not let the "big names" get away with things regular members couldn't.


Sometimes though, we do get it wrong. Occasionally they let me lead raids and we will wipe. We train other guilds. We drag mobs over people when mobilising.

In those cases we try to make it right.

We concede a target as soon as it's clear we were at fault: we don't wait for opposition to pull it in cleanly, debuffed, slowed and stable in camp before conceding. In some cases - such as in Plane of Fear - we typically concede the entire zone, even if were were just worried we'd got an opposing guild's camp AoEd by a golem.

We offer to rez and buff anyone we got killed. We don't just click up a cleric and move out - we click up as many corpses as needed, and will stay back to buff up the rezzed instead of mobilising on a new target.

And finally, whilst the raid scene can be toxic and inter-guild rivalries bitter, we have good relationships and friends in other guilds. Paradigm Shift will sometimes let me train them in HoT. Azure Guard will let me tease them for being roleplaying in Sleeper's Tomb. The Second Sons will let me tank Vindi for 10%. Dawn Believers still won't let me into their Discord.

Away from the raiding you'll find Aftermath can be a friendly place. We have some of the most knowledgeable people in the game willing to teach you everything they know. We have guild groups going at all levels and we regularly do epic fights.
