A Vulak attack initially worked like attacking CT. Except any of the named dragons in the zone would be brought to him upon attack.

However.

Certain monks who were elite enough (yes EQ has skill disclaimer) at FD pulling could handle the pull such that you could kill Vulak and leave Lord Vyemm (Vyemm being the toughest bitch in there) up. This created cries of exploit or unfairness from top guilds who did not have pull teams that could accomplish this, so it was changed to a ring event.

My opinion? Classic Vulak of course. Not sure if pulling mechanics here match live closely enough but I think they do to allow this. Those who played know of it and may already be ready to attempt a Vyemmless Vulak kill.

Vyemm I see being a cock block until people gear up and learn the fight, but a Vulak kill (along with most others) may indeed be a very possible day 1 reality with the amount of sky haste, rogues/clerics and VP gear thoroughly farmed.
