Well. This is just what we have to deal with. It's either Oakwynd, or Attica.

Points of curiosity regarding the EQ2-server.


"Q: Can members be added mid fight to the group or raid?
A: Yes. The lock is owned by an individual player."


Tremendous power is given to this individual. The power to bless. The power to spite.


"Q: If a player dies while pulling an NPC, can it be locked by someone else immediately or does it need to revert back to its spawn point?
A: If an NPC no longer has anyone on its hatelist and leaves combat, it will unlock in a short time whether it is at its spawn point or not."


Oh, "after a a short time" is it? That's some crackin' good code Jenkins. I'm putting you up for a promotion.


And zoning = dying. That "short period of time" will determine the camp locations. dotting classes will wreck it it, zone, camp of loitering newbs finish it off.



And that # of time will be known. And FTE will rule resetting mobs.


Weird server. I happened to really like eq2 because at the high end it was all open world for the first good while. FTE, but you wiped, too bad for you. People wiped. They could tune the encounters to a tee. Guilds that could assemble fast and not wipe cockblocked the server. Or sold loot rights.


It was a job, I admit it. That phone sound meant, get up or get kicked.
