It makes me wonder how well geared those top raiders were during The Velious timeline on live. I don’t recall ever seeing someone geared out like I see some of the people on p1999, given that they’ve had almost 4 years to acquire loot. Does anyone remember seeing someone in full BiS gear back then? I feel like the top players I remember seeing all had what would be considered just average ToV gear on p1999. I’m excited to see what people’s toons look like after only having a year in kunark and a year in Velious come green. I’m interested to hear stories of your servers most elite!
Generally, to hit full BIS, you’re talking multiple drops from Vulak. Vulak’s loot table has 25ish items on it. Vulak drops 2 items per kill, unless you get lucky. Even if you killed Vulak once a week during Velious era you’re talking roughly 104 items. RNG would indicate it’s pretty unlikely anyone is hitting full BIS on Vulak items - and that doesn’t count getting the right KT/Tunare/AoW drops you need for full BIS. Many servers did not kill AoW or Tunare in era.
