Etiquette for camping Ancient Cyclops
Would like to find out the etiquette for camping the AC before I start.
If I zone into S Ro or OOT and someone OOCs that they are camping it, I assume that means I should just move on or wait until they go? Can someone 'afk' camp it just by standing at the AC spawn spot? Or should they be killing place holders within a reasonably short time of the pher spawning? (I did look at the play nice policy on camps, but wanted to relate it specifically to the AC camp). If I am running through one of these zones and happen to see AC up, should I OOC first to see if anyone camping it? Or do people nuke it first, and ask questions later. BTW, first post on the boards, just getting into EQ again, and tremendous thanks to all the Project 1999 people for setting up and running the server.

usually i just pvp them and the winner gets the spawn
red99 can be the solution for so many things and this is one of them [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] besides that, it's not a static spawn ins SRo so it should be ffa (opposite to the oot AC where it is considered as a camp)

Players who afk camp static spawns risk losing camp. SRO spawn is a free for all, making it easy for anyone with track to run through and snipe. Sniping happens a lot with Quillmane and players don't risk getting caught if the campers are 2-manning it since SK is one of the larger zones, but SRO obviously isn't, especially in the area where AC can spawn. So players who snipe risk having their rep tarnished. Generally it's np, most players only log in just to check if AC is up and then promptly log off or zone out when they see level 35+ players in /who all or a ton of mob corpses, whichever comes first. If you are camping the AC in SRO and see a player running around the dunes area looking for the AC and not actively killing PHs than call them out on it. It's a dick move imo. Calling them out on it makes for some interesting reactions too. That said, sometimes if a wizard or bard is doing the killing, there really isn't much up to kill.
Get on list for OOT spawn>camp SRO spawn very late at night / early in the morning>try to figure out the spawn in EK. | ||

Why do you have an AA meter? I have never seen that except from the UI I am using because it is custom and pieces made for recent EQ. I've never seen one just from the normal setup of P99 and the UI it has.

Etiquette on P99 today? There's another possible thread.
Anyway, South Ro AC is now FFA... just be sure to engage first with a spell that takes some HP away from him (visual cue to anyone else that he's been engaged and isn't on 100% health anymore). The OOT AC is higher level and not easy to solo (I'd imagine very difficult as a cleric below 49), but he is a static spawn... so you'll be able to claim the camp if nobody is there etc. | ||
