and that's the sticking point for everyone, the hardcore side is absolutely willing to give up all kinds of mobs that don't matter for the most part (gore, tal, vox, naggy, maestro, etc) but VS/Trak/Inny/CT have been the issue. Every casual player deserves to finish an epic on their own terms. No one says we don't want to track the mob, it's not a handout, we simply want to avoid all the toxic elements that have persisted since the beginning of the server.

The rogean plan allows for new guilds that are just now forming to someday jump into tier 2 and get on a rotation list and kill a VS to finish an epic. I think that's something that the majority of this server needs.
It's such a big part. There is probably nothing more fundamentally EverQuest than the epics. That's a big part for a lot of people who come to the game. It doesn't deserved to be locked behind one particular type of raiding attitude, going after one particular type of classic. Yes, they are hard, and yes, the resources are scarce, and nothing about this plan changes that. It just makes it so you're not forced to buy them due to the content being on lockdown.

You aren't geting 50/50 of these. Staff already said that. The best you guys could hope for is what I mentioned and that's only because if you agreed to it, then the guilds who talk about being better and put in more effort would have to put up or shut up when it comes to the FFA round.

I know for a fact, that with the raiding changes, there are T2 guilds who will get some of the FFA VS/Trak/Inny/CT's that spawn on those days (CT probably being the least likely, but also the most likely for a guild to end up with 4 weeks of vacation).
GMs have said this, but not all staff nor all GMs are of a single mind. This is compromise, it is discussion, and everyone has a different view. It is the "staff" proposal that suggests a 50/50 split on these.
