OF COURSE it should take time and effort to obtain top equipment. But nothing about rotations changes that: you still have to kill the dragons!

As far as EverQuest, the actual game we are all here to play, is concerned, everyone still has to "put in the work" to get the treasure by killing the dragons, regardless of the system that allocates the dragons.

Furthermore, for all your claims about the "time and effort" put in, the vast majority of members of the top guilds don't have to put in that time and effort. Yes the trackers have to stare at nothing for hours, and a few other members have to put in effort, but 95% or so of the guild is putting in no more effort than anyone else on the server ... so why is it better to have a server where only they get to kill the dragons?

I think you seriously don't get what makes the upper echelon of raiders sign in every week.

If you want mobs that you can login and just kill TLP and P2002 both will let you do that. You try to justify that instances != rotations but they effectively are (you are 100% going to get a shot at every mob in the zone)

if you want to kill TOV loramin, join an actual competitive raiding guild (AG CORE AM), or put in a HUGE amount of effort to get the tools necessary to make anonymous competitive.
