That is why people find RZ humorous and sad at the same time. The server had every opportunity to become the thunderdome incarnate of EQ pvp. Instead your betters enforced NO PVP regulations on an unregulated server, lol...
The fact that your huge guilds banded together, holding hands to fight the sleeper is a true testament to RZ's pvp impotence. No respectable competitive guild on any other pvp server would have ever let an apposing guild get a free shot on a raid target if they could help it (at least on TZ that is).
On Tallon Zek, a guild (Veneration) awakened the sleeper, not to get a first kill and certainly not to bring everyone together, dick in hand, for a brief moment in history. No, instead they did it purely to fuck over every guild there after from ever farming primals the way you could pre-awakened sleeper. That was how it was done on pvp servers. Fuck, even on the blue servers, the guilds at least new the strategic advantage of cock blocking other guilds from primals (pssst to inhibit competition).
Your hardcore item loot and ffa pvp server rule set means dick if the people that matter are going to carebear it in the first place. Yes, RZ will forever be recognized for killing the sleeper post-luclin with luclin gear. It was a true pve feat and will never be taken away. But the fact that the sleeper managed to stay asleep post luclin so all the heroes could eventually band together for friendship and glory, is just one of the examples of RZ pvp lameness.
