Only way I can really see fixing the issue without causing absolute mayhem by making it FFA. If people actually have to sit there and wait for their turn they'll be less inclined to add themselves to the list and figure "I'll come back in a week when my names up"

I dont understand why this isnt how it work...

I think the list was a great a idea and a wonderful way to control the chaos at a stupidly contested camp. The beads don't drop enough to require an active presence from everyone on list, but drop often enough that people up soon maintain a presence or risk getting kicked off list when it's their turn. It was a community effort. If the chain got broken, the list died and it gets started again. Working as intended imo.

Especially since I got mine.

lol I didn't think people were serious when they said 'play blue where you stand in a list to get loot'

Golean, Hevie, Detoxx, and Ipsum (myself) were all in the zone at the time of the calamity and were all inbound to effect a rescue or resuscitate on the situation.

Unfortunately, Nej died somewhere outside and we didn't get there in time to support him.

While I like the idea that we reinstate the old list (and that's what I want), at SOME point ya have to draw the line. We did it when Kharizzar when LD for 30min on a power outage, and we did it when Koony was AFK in kael. Kharizzar we skipped, Koony (the reason for the Sirken says hotkey) was moved to behind the current list holder (and subsequently booted for mouthing off).

TL;DR?

Compromise and be civil. It's a game so have some goddamn decency and play nice.

40h and not a single bead?!?! Damn... Thats either broken or a lie. There is like 8-9 spawns inside that cave... 7min repop...

Or maybe he was passing the beads to other people for sales idk...

It was actually 1 bead during a 40h period or so from what I saw (went to Trollolololol). Also, at least while I was there, people were grouped with the list holder and would have seen if beads dropped. I wasn't there the whole time, but would be on for 3-6 hour stretches to help out. I just wish I had been around the cave when it was an easy-mode 6-12 hour camp, before Wakening Lands crashed and all of the sudden bad luck hit the drop rate.

Either way, everybody can continue with their Red99 advertising, lol.

Did the spawn time change? It was 10x 15 minute spawns plus a single 2 hour middle spawn on beta.

The tin foil answer is that WL crashed a couple days ago and ever since the drop rate has been markedly worse. I think the spawn times are the same as beta though.

ROFL

You know what's faster than waiting on a 30+ or 150+ list?

Farming 100k which only takes what, about a week, two tops if you get unlucky with drops or camps (which isn't an issue ever since velious came out)
