There is simple things you will not change. Alarti i have heard you time and time again agree that poopsocking is evil, yet you fail to mention that was TMO that caused poopsocking to be used. You can say you did not start it, but if that what guilds had to do to win a mob against tmo monopoly, because tmo refused to let others enjoy killing targets, then you TMO is responsible. All this could have been avoided by TMO simply sharing a few mobs here and there, or saying hey server we are gonna take 1 week a month break, enjoy, but you did not, you said "Hey server, fuck all you guys, if you want epics, reach into your banks. Pay us, because you all suck, and we are gods of eq." Personally i would love to see it where TMO was raid banned until velious, considering you have monopolized your share of loot for the last 3 years, and then turned and talked shit about everyone while doing it. But, in the spirit of christmas, i will actually give you all the benefit of the doubt. Now then why are we making things so tough. Why not take the 2 best ideas we have and implement them together with a few minor tweeks.
First off 2 hour no touch limit is way to long, i believe in sharing, but i also believe people should have to work for loot, not just be handed opportunities. After all only guild to be handed mobs was TMO's vp rotation. That said. 1Hour is sufficient. This MAKES guilds track for the mobs they want. This gives guilds time to log on and prepare and have a real engage. If you cant mobilize for vs or trak in 30min, then you shouldnt be allowed to a chance to kill them without competition. Now this said, wouldn't this mean it would simply go TMO, IB, TMO, IB,,,,,Yep prolly. And i think IB, FE, other guild is to easy, i was thinking this.
HERE IS MY SUGGESTION.
If IB/FE and TMO combine to kill 4 targets in a row, both guilds will agree not to engage the 5th spawn for a time of no less then 6 hours.
IB/FE and TMO agree that the first week of each month they will not engage TAL/GORE/FAY/SEV/NAGGY/VOX/DRACO/INNY/Maestro
ALL GUILDS AGREE to Not engaging a mob within 1 Hour of its spawn, if they killed its last spawn. If said guild has killed last 2 spawns they Agree not to engage 3rd spawn for 6 hours.
Trak/VS/CT Will be open competition, except, these mobs will have a 15 minute engage timer if prior kill, and if FE/IB and TMO combine to kill mob 4 times in a row, they will Agree to neither engage mob for 6 hours. 15 min still forces competition.
VP will remain FTE and open for further discussion later on down the road.
