Player ENFORCED Lists

[conoutoftrol]

Over the last few days I have been after the widely coveted "Idol of the Thorned". This is a very powerful item. Being newish to the Green server I decided to go check out the situation down there.

[Tue Dec 29 16:33:17 2020] You say, 'Hail, Succumb'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:20 2020] You appear.
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:20 2020] You begin casting Regrowth.
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:26 2020] Succumb says, 'howdy'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:26 2020] Succumb begins to regenerate.
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:30 2020] You say, 'whats up'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:39 2020] Succumb says, 'camping stuffs'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:47 2020] You say, 'coo'
[Tue Dec 29 16:33:55 2020] You say, 'what is the list for here?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:34:36 2020] You are already on a list. You are position 1.
[Tue Dec 29 16:34:37 2020] Succumb tells you, 'list is me + malaize but i think he's offline atm'
[Tue Dec 29 16:34:53 2020] You told Succumb, 'for what the CoS?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:34:57 2020] Succumb tells you, 'both'
[Tue Dec 29 16:35:01 2020] Succumb tells you, 'well all 3 really'

[Tue Dec 29 16:39:17 2020] You told Succumb, 'well i want the idol of the thorned '
[Tue Dec 29 16:39:48 2020] Succumb tells you, 'cool you're on list for it'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:11 2020] You told Succumb, 'what is the list?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:19 2020] Succumb tells you, 'me, then you'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:26 2020] Succumb tells you, 'assuming malaize doesn't come back'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:34 2020] Succumb tells you, 'but he's been offline for a bit'
[Tue Dec 29 16:40:57 2020] You told Succumb, 'so you can camp CoS and the chief at the same time?'
[Tue Dec 29 16:41:02 2020] Succumb tells you, 'yup'
[Tue Dec 29 16:48:22 2020] You told Succumb, 'hmu when ur done i guess'
[Tue Dec 29 16:48:39 2020] Succumb tells you, 'kk'
[Tue Dec 29 16:49:14 2020] You told Succumb, 'CoS and chief being one camp doesn't really make sense to me but i guess it is what it is'
[Tue Dec 29 16:49:52 2020] Succumb tells you, 'yeah that's how it's been since kunark came out, each is its own list, you can be on both. Bodyguard can spawn in chief room, it's all one big cmap'

[Tue Dec 29 16:52:45 2020] Succumb tells you, 'sure thing'

So, essentially people claim 3 huge rooms out of LoS of each-other as their own camp. They fire up a "List" and put themselves at the front of it. This basically goes against every p99 camp ruling I've ever read. It then becomes your job to police them or help farm their items.


Then there was yesterday, the big day, I hopped on the Idol list. There was a group of low 40s at the camp already.

It turns out there eyes must have been larger than their stomach, however, because I returned from afk to find chief and other mobs beating on me in an empty zone.

After this I claimed Chief Rok`Gus' room as my camp.

As the Camp Rules explain, a single player or group can only "own" (prevent other players from taking) a single mob/spawn point outdoors, or a single "camp" (typically a single room) in a dungeon (where "outdoor dungeons" like City of Mist count as dungeons). This is because the server rules emphasize sharing scarce resources as much as possible between two or more players that want those resources.

When the wiped group returned I told them as much and told them they can kill anything below the ramp until I get my "Idol of the Throned" or give up. Seems reasonable and they were fine with it.

Hours and hours went by with me holding the room and various people coming through to clear the bottom part.

It was at this point I was still clearing my room and Patchez <Fires of Heaven> was down below clear the other two rooms.
Then enter Yucun. This guy is a DrogA expert. He claims to have been at this camp for months (omegalul). He could not stand idly by and allow me to camp one room in DrogA so took matters into his own hands. The following video shows my interactions with him and the eventual KS+Ninja loot.
