Player ENFORCED Lists
 
Over the last few days I have been after the widely coveted "Idol of the Thorned". This is a very powerful item. Being newish to the Green server I decided to go check out the situation down there.

[Tue Dec 29 16:33:17 2020] You say, 'Hail, Succumb'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:20 2020] You appear.
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:20 2020] You begin casting Regrowth.
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:26 2020] Succumb says, 'howdy'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:26 2020] Succumb begins to regenerate.
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:30 2020] You say, 'whats up'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:39 2020] Succumb says, 'camping stuffs'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:47 2020] You say, 'coo'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:55 2020] You say, 'what is the list for here?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:34:36 2020] You are already on a list. You are position 1.
[Tue Dec 29 16:34:37 2020] Succumb tells you, 'list is me + malaize but i think he's offline atm'
[Tue Dec 29 16:34:53 2020] You told Succumb, 'for what the CoS?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:34:57 2020] Succumb tells you, 'both'
[Tue Dec 29 16:35:01 2020] Succumb tells you, 'well all 3 really'
[Tue Dec 29 16:36:41 2020] Succumb tells you, 'want on list?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:37:27 2020] You told Succumb, 'for what item?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:38:56 2020] Succumb tells you, 'up to you'
[Tue Dec 29 16:39:17 2020] You told Succumb, 'well i want the idol of the thorned '
[Tue Dec 29 16:39:48 2020] Succumb tells you, 'cool you're on list for it'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:11 2020] You told Succumb, 'what is the list?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:19 2020] Succumb tells you, 'me, then you'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:26 2020] Succumb tells you, 'assuming malaize doesn't come back'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:34 2020] Succumb tells you, 'but he's been offline for a bit'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:57 2020] You told Succumb, 'so you can camp CoS and the chief at the same time?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:41:02 2020] Succumb tells you, 'yup'
[Tue Dec 29 16:48:22 2020] You told Succumb, 'hmu when ur done i guess'
[Tue Dec 29 16:48:39 2020] Succumb tells you, 'kk'
[Tue Dec 29 16:49:14 2020] You told Succumb, 'CoS and chief being one camp doesn't really make sense to me but i guess it is what it is'
[Tue Dec 29 16:49:52 2020] Succumb tells you, 'yeah that's how it's been since kunark came out, each is its own list, you can be on both. Bodyguard can spawn in chief room, it's all one big cmap'
[Tue Dec 29 16:52:41 2020] You told Succumb, 'add me to both lists'
[Tue Dec 29 16:52:45 2020] Succumb tells you, 'sure thing'

So, essentially people claim 3 huge rooms out of LoS of each-other as their own camp. They fire up a "List" and put themselves at the front of it. This basically goes against every p99 camp ruling I've ever read. It then becomes your job to police them or help farm their items.


Then there was yesterday, the big day, I hopped on the Idol list. There was a group of low 40s at the camp already.

It turns out there eyes must have been larger than their stomach, however, because I returned from afk to find chief and other mobs beating on me in an empty zone.

After this I claimed Chief Rok`Gus' room as my camp.

Quote:

As the Camp Rules explain, a single player or group can only "own" (prevent other players from taking) a single mob/spawn point outdoors, or a single "camp" (typically a single room) in a dungeon (where "outdoor dungeons" like City of Mist count as dungeons). This is because the server rules emphasize sharing scarce resources as much as possible between two or more players that want those resources.
When the wiped group returned I told them as much and told them they can kill anything below the ramp until I get my "Idol of the Throned" or give up. Seems reasonable and they were fine with it.

Hours and hours went by with me holding the room and various people coming through to clear the bottom part.

It was at this point I was still clearing my room and Patchez <Fires of Heaven> was down below clear the other two rooms.
Then enter Yucun. This guy is a DrogA expert. He claims to have been at this camp for months (omegalul). He could not stand idly by and allow me to camp one room in DrogA so took matters into his own hands. The following video shows my interactions with him and the eventual KS+Ninja loot.

I was considering petitioning these guys but ultimately I value the time and energy of our volunteer staff too much! They have their hands full with the raid scene and such between all three servers here. But I did want to share my experience with somebody. I mainly am posting this as a warning to future adventurers of what they might encounter in The Drog'.

What do you guys think? Am I allowed to camp one room in DrogA? Or does this DrogA expert actually get to waltz into my camp create a list and enforce it on the mobs in my camp?

I camp one area in droga often. Most people are cool about it if you claim it.

magnetaress 12-31-2020 05:32 PM

Fires of Heavens being dicks about camps and stealing mobs?

It's all they ever do. They fly under the radar because ST takes all the heat but the real scumbag guild of the server is FoH without a doubt

They constantly try to bulldog camps and then KS when they don't get their way. They act like manipulative fucks and try to play mind games in tells

Fuck FOH

I don't understand why everyone shits on ST. Yea they are top dog but their interaction with the everyday player is the best. They are always kind. They tip REALLY well when ported. They have clerics pop into zones all the time and rez people for free. They donate nice items for gift giveaways.

Fires Of Heavens on the other hand is a big bag of dicks still trying to relive their glory days from 20 years ago. They are a bunch of snobs. They treat everyone like shit.

Fuck FOH

Yucun isn't in Fire of Heaven, he is unguilded.

cd288 12-31-2020 06:31 PM

Isn’t patchez that dude who got kicked from seal team for being a dick? Sad to see FoH agreed to let him join

Watch the video

Shaman engages

Patchez sends in pet

Patchez steals kill


Patchez isn't the only member of FOH to pull shit like at camps. The scumbags in this guild do it all the time and treat the general population just trying to enjoy the game like shit

Fuck FOH

A group of FoH were in TD trying to claim all 4 raptor camps the other day; each member was actually announcing a different camp when anyone asked for cc, while their bard swarmed it all.
‘Twas outrageous ! (And honestly couldn’t have even been good exp for them)
