Adventures with Vanquish

[Alara]

Just returned to P99 after years of being away and this was my first interaction with Vanquish. I accidentally ran into the corner they were pulling to. I moved immediately. They downed Vindi without issue.

You came up with an intriguing title, then posted something boring.

[mycoolrausch]

You encountered a professional everquest player in the wild. Congrats. They didn't used to exist outside of ToV but the rooted dragon meta and lots of time to make more alts has spread them far and wide, including to 8 hour mobs like vindi.

He should have reported you imo

[Tunabros]

he's just overeacting

just whatever

Vindi is serious business.

It's not a good place to be when they are pulling Vindi to that corner. Since Kittens kills Vindi regularly, they assumed you knew that and might of been attempting a sort of micro aggression in protest of our FTE. Sort of like when Smash snare locked our Vindi a week or so ago.

He was testing your mettle to see if you were Vanquish material. The proper response would have been to tell him to eat a bushel of cocks.

Warriors are divas. I’m pretty sure a GM would tell Aarmor to kick rocks about this concern. I love you Aarmor.

They could pin him to any wall, like tuna said you didnt do anything wrong. DPS just need to not be afk and actually watch their push.

Just ignore anything a vanquish member says to you and your life will be much better lol

Just a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. It would take a lot more than that to mess up a Vindi engage.

Are you sure you want to come back to P99? :D

Sounds like you screwed up, didn't apologize or explain that you were returning from a hiatus, and are now mad that you got told you screwed up.

[Allishia]

Well I think he could have asked you to move in a nicer way, but usually people know better than to be in that corner when raid mobs are inc :)

Yes, people are correct that you don't have to tank him in the corner, lots of times I'll actually be on the wall in front and let the melee push vindi in the corner from his side. Usually just because I forgot to shrink or something but it works just fine.

The lizard is actually very nice player once you get to know him, probably was just anxious and didn't want to mess up vindi /nod

Vindi is a very serious raid encounter, show some respect.

Yes he is! love the vindi giant /nod

Fammaden's based takes

[Solist]

He was right
You were wrong.

When our own guildies stand in that corner they get a torrent of abuse for being shitters. Doing so to another guild is peak shitter activity.

Not being able to deal with it as a tank and just move along wall and pin vindi to corner is the real demigod of the shitters move though.

I started playing again recently and was very surprised to see people pulling vindi and statue to WL ent, when I stopped playing they were still being killed at arena

The best judge of a persons character is not how they treat their friends whom they've known for a long time but how they treat complete strangers.

I've seen this sort of thing a lot. Some players assume everyone else knows what they know. To you, it's just another corner with no mobs in it, probably a good place to hang out. To him, that corner is Where We Will Tank Vindi. To you, you're staying out of the way. To him, you're deliberately denying him what he regards as the optimal tanking location.

"You stood in the corner where vindi is tanked" -> this is true and your fault
"so that I couldn't get into it properly" -> this is conjecture, an assumption, and his fault

Next time, you can explain you don't know how Vindi is done, you are there to witness it for the first time and tag for 50 faction points, you thought the corner was a safe place to be, and you did not mean to interfere, and sorry.

But I don't know if we'll ever cure the problem that causes people to assume others already know things.

[Videri]

Nor whatever causes people to assume intent.

Someone named Nuggie yelled at me once for getting attacked by "his" gnolls because I ran by them in wolf form.

I didn't know dude!

This was your real mistake.

Please attempt to avoid this in the future as all these mother fuckers need Jesus.

Talking about the mage who farms faction using his pet while afk?

[Terrok]

wow, said you did a dirtbag move without sending guild invite, im shocked, to be fair, they do wipe on vindi way more then any guild half their size does, and its a hard time of the year for them, but sadly this is their server and we are just unwelcomed guests who should leave, but provide competition at the same time.

I don’t remember there being any land ownership mechanic in classic Everquest.

Sort of like when Smash snare locked our Vindi a week or so ago.

You do realize Why he did what he did? I am in no way justifying his actions however too many uneducated post about this.


> You cannot disrupt a players pet nor can you disrupt their combat.
> Rules for FTE cannot be changed whimsically.
> Smashh has every right to utilize aggro mechanics via root / charm to pull vindi just as much as any player has the right to use a casted pet / wand.
> Mjrn Highsun's Smashh pet during a charm break.
> Smashh was simply employing one of the quickest fte techniques utilizing aggro mechanics that will beat a wand fte almost every time.
> Multiple guilds have used the same mechanic to solo pull vindi to Zone line and it has never been a problem in the past.

VQ Is quick to shit on other players as in this case where op was accused of intentionally disrupting, however the keyboard warriors are ready to stand tall about a snared vindi but cannot wrap their head around the actual mechanics that make a charm pet a more reliable fte than a bunch of sadface vindi-sockers because they cant just mash target nearest npc and mash wand to "Be superior and get fte".

Smashh should not have snared vindi, and yes that disrupted the pull, however everyone is forgetting how the disruption initiates as mjrn acts upon smashh's pet.

[Awweshux]

Vanquish has a culture of verbally shitting on people. Interact with them and you will have to wipe it off. Facts.

[enjchanter]

The vanq culture deff less than ideal but the loot is great so here we are

The vanq culture deff less than ideal but...

At least you're telling the truth.

I can't imagine having nothing better to do than to be yelled at and talked down to by obese blue collar retards in a game that I play to relax. Especially since these same people would call me sir as they carried things to my car IRL.

[Tunabros]

had a friend told me in vanquish that the people in there are complete asshats but the

loot is 10/10

Be less of a doormat. Consider this life lessons from EQ:

If you talk back to these people on the same level that they talk to you, they respect you and you learn to respect yourself.

Snowflakes would melt in a heartbeat, tho.

Because the best part of logging into a 23 year old game is some over immersed neckbeard screaming autistically at me so I can shriek back at them. Sounds fucking terrible.

So did you quit riot then? You know catherin is in riot, right? Also, kickenit?

[Ennewi]

If you break/bend the rules for any advantage against these people on the same level that they break/bend them for any advantage against you, they respect you and you learn to respect yourself.

[Lammy]

LOL imagine if all you have to do is auto attack a mob and you can't even adapt to a positioning change.

I engage in conflict the better part of 50 hours per week for my job. Gaming is what I do to escape this.

Learning life lessons from the underemployed is not high on my list of things to do. I'm not even sure it's possible.

This is textbook projecting. Just because you're underpaid for a job you hate doesn't make the people better at this game than you automatically unemployed.

Be better. Feel better.

I've been playing the hell out of Vermintide 2 lately since I don't have solid time to get much done in EQ, it's really fun dude. And Warhammer Online was one of my favorite MMO's ever. It wasn't perfect but the PvP and RvR was rewarding. I miss it so much.
