That level of excess is what the hardcore raiders of this server expect. It's not enough to have a 6k raid buffed character with full ST gear, full NToV gear, and AoW drops - it's about having 3 other alts geared like that as well and those hardcore players will do WHATEVER IT TAKES to get that loot. They would sit in Venril Sathir's room for over 100 hours just to get a kill. Taken used to straight up sock Inny for 100 hours at a time if need be. First in force would be a disaster.

As much as I hate to agree with BDA scum (Shout out to Timberlandz<BDA> from MM last night, was good grouping) - Chest pretty much hit the nail on the head. The server is full of neckbeards who will go to extreme lengths for loot. We all b!tch about Socking/NoLifing to varying degrees, but its also part of what makes actually GETTING loot so great. It is both the reason I love and hate EQ simultaneously - if it were easy I wouldn't still be playing, but it can be insanely frustrating.
If you asked me before I started playing here if I thought hundreds of adults would wait 15 hours for a P99 raid mob to spawn, I would have laughed at you. Then I witnessed 300+ people in Feerott socking a Dracoliche spawn for SIX(6) hours...This was 4 years into Kunark mind you.
The solution to all of this is IMO is more Earthquakes - Emperor Rogean seems to disagree however
