Reject modernity, embrace the Gimmick Raid Guild

[CrazyPro]

Where the gimmick raid guilds at? We need to make a funny guild and have a fun time, playing the game normally is too boring, we gotta approach things from the wrong way and try to make it work, and we're gonna have MORE FUN than all of those losers playing the game NORMALLY in the safety of their carebear guilds with invincible 7K HP tanks to cushion them from ouchies from da big scawy dwagon.

How 'bout we make a summoned pet only guild and then literally just chain summon endless pets into raid targets to slowly chunk 'em down with other guilds standing around hoping we wipe so they can pick it up? I bet the /ooc during that would be fun. Imagine losing to a bunch of idiots resummoning pets faster than the mob can kill them. No tank, no CH chain, just magicians living in the moment. Mages and necros should boycott cothing and twitching, they should be allowed to summon their pets in ToV.

Or we could make a guild that kills vindi with an endless army of level 5s bound in kael. If there's enough of us he won't be able to kill us fast enough. 100 hour kill, ez.

Or how about we make a guild where it's literally only enchanters and you just kill everything with charm pets. Or only clerics and enchanters, with knight tank goalies for charm breaks?

There are an absolute ton of druids, we need to do something with them. Druid only raid guild when? We can all charm dire wolves or something and /assist heal.

What if we combine all of these and create the ultimate raid guild where charm pets + summoned pets are the only ones in melee range, with healers rolling on whichever pet has aggro at any given time, with knight tank goalies for charm breaks, all pets are tashed + malo'd + snared, given full HP buffs, muzzle of mardu, and avatar, and everything just dies and it's all great and wonderful and we win and people get mad cuz bad.

Ogre only raid guild, anyone?

I still think a guild of rangers is viable prove me wrong!

There is a formula that looks at dps on target per ranger and divides the mob’s hp by that number which provides an indication of how many seconds of ranger attacks are needed to kill the mob, which is then balanced by lemgth of weaponshield to identify the minimum number of rangers required to kill the mob.

Rim honestly, if you are really a kid as people believe you are. There are better thing in life than seeking the attention or approval of people on this random EQ server that you happen to frequent.

Don't fuck your life up thinking your evenings are better spent appealing to the people who reminisce about fucking up theirs.

Do something for fucks sake.

Improve yourself, in any way or measure you see fit. Hit the gym, find a hobby, find a person to love. anything but pretending to be some random person for laughs on a server filled with middle aged men arguing over the rules we've imposed on ourselves on a 27 year old game.

fuck sake, you make me weep for youss

You can form a guild whose mission is solely to farm Plane of Mischief.

You would have tales of things not many players bother with. Glory.

[Neno]

Maybe some kind of Erudite only guild.

This was attempted at some point and it went terribly. I think it was used in that one south park episode where eric gets a theme park and loses everything or vice versa, i dunno.

A LOT of druids get together and want to take down a raid target, they could not.
Enter, the token halfling warrior.
Yay, the druids could take down raid targets now, not much, not that special but it was their first kill. They discuss options.
Enter, the gnome enchanter.
Now due to increased mana regeneration they were able to get more targets within a reasonable amount of time! But they still had resists with their fire spells!
Enter, the gnome mage and barb shaman who was forced to use shrink potions.
Fire damage blocked out the sun due to the sheer amount of druids.
After that things were going pretty sweet, they found out scent spells reduce fire reistance as well, their friends invited their friends to targets and the whole tiers of raiding were being wiped out
A few years after that they had almost no druids or many members because i got high and made up this story from this one time we were talking about being a DaP raiding guild

I am absolutely making love to this ice cream sandwich right now.

On Luclin we had <Nuggets of Justice>, a small-folk only guild. They eventually had a tall-folk spinoff, <Tallards>. Both of these gimmick guilds (and members from several contentious top-end raiding guilds) eventually had a goof-off raiding guild for alts spinoff, <Corpse Cannon>. Fun times.
