Thought Experiment: How Could Rotations Be Competitive?
 

I'm tired of "competition vs. rotations" conversations. Fact: some classic EQ raid mobs were competed for, and some weren't. More relevant fact: our benevolent dictators for life want competition ... and it's their server.

But, what if we took a different angle, and asked: how could rotations be competitive?

As a simple example (just to get the ball rolling), what if guilds had "bag limits" on certain targets (eg. only 3 ST key mobs per week). However, to encourage competition the guild that kills their three targets the fastest gets to increase their "bag size" by two for the next week ... while any guild that gets caught violating a server rule loses their entire "bag" for the next cycle.

What other ways could you imagine "competitive rotations"? Perhaps, if we can imagine something awesome, the staff might even try it in the future.

It's never been about the game, the content or rotation vs non rotation

It's about the mentality of the players that want to raid at the highest level

Can't change it and never will

As this is a combat game unfettered pvp is the only answer.

Man who has shown a supreme lack of insight into human nature wants to devise a system that bucks all systems of human nature. Good luck.

You have to beat the entitlement to pixels outta ppl otherwise they are just going to be bad actors

Y'all are a bunch of pessimists :(

Surely someone can come up with an interesting idea that promotes competition in a "rotated" environment?

Negative nancy, not everyone thinks selfishness is a virtue

I realize you have to make it so to reconcile your two faiths with one another, but some people are naturally cooperative and experimental

John Wayne was a pedophile, coward who avoided service in World War 2, raging abusive alcoholic, hypocrite, and a sex trafficker. Look how old Chata was when he cheated on his first wife and met Chata at a brothel

In other words, the perfect conservative idol
