You are correct though, the jboot perma-campers fuck everything.

We'd lose more by dropping MQ completely then we would gain IMHO.
I dunno what the answer is, if there even is one.
I think the solution is looking at things like this and seeing what makes sense as an MQ (like the epic) or what does not make sense (Jboots)

The biggest problem with this server is that it is classic to a point where things the devs did back then would most likely or have already said this was a bad idea. Even Diablo 2 made some QOL changes when they released D2R. Auto gold pickup, bigger stash, increased chance of high rune drops and adjusting skills/items to name a few.

I think it would make sense to revisit many things to see what makes sense as a QOL. For example, Lguk spawns are still 28 min while it is way less in Kunark/Velious zones.

Maybe keep jboots in Najena while maintaining the AC spawns.

If I had a sever, this is something I would do but it is not so it is what it is. However I would not mind seeing a D2R version of EQ where they adjust things like this.
