Super funny, people get this involved for negligible loot, competition is fun but a top heavy server filled with people who are desperately trying to re-create that feeling when you saw that uber guy killing your city guards with impunity in this unknown world 20 years ago sounds terrible. Classic end game is non-existant and it was somewhat contained on live because the content wasn't mastered and it took forever to level. You would log in and send tells, get on a waiting list or relocate as streams of LFG spam in ooc reveal a couple of your class that are higher level, I vividly remember 3 different groups camping each spire in South Karana with gentlemen agreements on the wanderers. I spent more time working on my alcohol tolerance at the docks and buffing noobs than I did leveling but being 13 I was easily entertained I suppose.
Thanks for reading my blog guys, should un-classic this up a bit and buff these dragons up or do events where a guild gets a 'trial dragon' where they get an instance with a raid size limit (insert respectable low pop kill). This dragon would have a low chance to drop loot but whichever guild does the kill according to that weekly challenge (rotation of least deaths, fastest kills, most spell damage, most melee damage) gets the first chance at the OW mob. Lets encourage real competition not the shitshow that is EQ 'competition'.
