So if I'm fighting efreeti my reaper might or might not work based on whether or not Nagafen is spawned on the other side of the zone? That's not classic EQ in either fact or in feel. Items didn't work randomly like that in the original game. It could be done, but I don't think it should be done since it's a move away from P99's purpose.

That would be ignoring the current situation where the item just isn't classic at all times and also that raid mobs on P99 pretty much don't exist for more than a few minutes so 99% of the time that wouldn't be happening. I actually originally thought it should just be a radius check like the Nagafen level check but I'm sure people think that requires too much dev effort. My point really is just that if we're going to nerf things specifically because of raid abuse then the nerf should be limited to the raid mob rather than the item that was abused. Specifically because not doing that and trying to nerf individual items leads to the situation outlined in OP of not actually achieving the goal and impacting things outside of raiding.
