PvE Gauntlet

This seems like an awesome idea, except no need for Tmo and Holo exclusive. All guilds can play. Easy.. Each guild gathers in the gorge since no one goes there(or wherever will be good). GMs can have designated areas for each guild and summons a pre-set series of raid mobs. Each spawning 5 or 10 seconds after the last one dies. Set a player cap to limit the zerg. Sounds fun.

Winners get a gold name plate for a month. Besides how can Tmo and Holo be the only competitors? Half of them wouldn't know if they should play their Holo toon or their Tmo toon ;)

The challenge of EverQuest, generally speaking, is the environment.

Which is why thinks like broken sneak and invis pulling ruined so many aspects of the game. It trivialized one of the few areas in the game thay required skill (pulling), and then further trivialized the game by allowing you to isolate the mob you are interested in from its environment.

Cazic-Thule for example, is a joke alone. However if the whole plane is fully spawned, he is an entirely different monster. Same deal with Innoruuk. Two groups could do Innoruuk, however if the whole plane is up, with aggro there 2 groups will definitely wipe.

I will say though... The one time when Vox spawned back to back 3 times on us was quite entertaining. It wasn't a feat of skill, just fun to see people run low on mana with their crappy Vox Alts and eventually start to drop.

Taking on fully spawned rooms instead of single pulling makes the game far more fun. I've duo'd Tranix several times. The most fun kill wasn't when all the trash were killed before Tranix spawned but instead when every fire giant in the bridge room and his room all aggroed together and myself and a monk duoed the entire set of mobs.

I challenge this pretender, this False Hero, to the ecstasy of combat. Once, I have slain him upon the marble ramp of the Skyfire Mountains. I cut him down as he fled before me, and his blood stained the halls.

Again, before the cursed gate to the Plane of Fear, I challenged him to the ancient rite of combat, and he cowed before me.

And now I hear rumors, murmurs in the twisting winds, that this pretender calls himself the Hero of Rivervale! The bile in my throat asphyxiates me, the gall of this halfling enrages me!

There can be only one!!

Once more, I challenge you, Foggon Gamadiel! We will battle for the supremacy over Rivervale, once and for all! You have your blessed blades of Zek, let us see in whose hands they are mightier!! I slap you with my gauntlets, I spit upon your naked feet!

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!

Fog, this guy gave me a damn glove to slap you in the face with. As a halfling, I have to do it. As a guildy, I apologize.

Just to be clear, being in a raid guild /= you being a skilled player.

With that said, P99 raid guilds are full to the brim with skilled players, but being guild tagged didn't improve their skill.

Take a look no further than the solo competition thread for the best on the server. Put 20 of them together and you have the best core of gamers on the server.

Wait, does the Hero of the Vale have to be a warrior?

One for each of you gentlemen.

Since when did Halfling become a thirsty race? A brother lost his light and now need be reminded the joyous bell of Rivervale. Find me friend. Mine blades cast restore sight, so it shall be done. Where I am you do not know, though you should know.. I lie in wait.

Kill vox, run through a deep pile of canned corn, then kill nagafen

Ravager 03-03-2015 08:29 PM

Just have a sky crawl race, no pulling mobs to other islands, must clear the islands, even the meteors, fastest to kill eye on 8 is the winner. Competitors must begin with 0 keys.
