Default Make Stormfeather not retarded 2019

At least take out skips. Every 18 hours + /- 1 for a universally good quest item is silly as it is, especially when you can cut in line whenever someone LDs because the camp isn't "claimed" anymore.

Stormfeather's map piece was one of the easiest items I have ever gotten on this server. I literally just afked there in line, checked my logs for stormfeather's spawn to get the timer, and then when my turn came up sat at my computer and watched youtube for an hour or two, afked 18 hours, repeat til spawn. Took all of maybe 3 or 4 hours of actually being in front of my computer to get the piece.

If going LD is a frequent problem for you, it might not be a good camp for you. Otherwise it's extremely low-effort.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH IT COSTS TO RUN MY PC FOR 18 HOURS IN MY TRAILER DOWN BY THE RIVER

Sorry to hear that they are having a rough time. Sometimes people sell loot rights to the map piece. If your friend can make enough pp from items that don't require a stable internet connection maybe they can buy it.

Yes this is how the game is supposed to be played. You grind plat so you can pay the guy who is *playing* the game to camp the map piece keeping your from playing the game so he can sell it to you.

This encourages more neckbeards to camp bottlenecks to make you grind plat to buy the item from them. While you are at it grind plat for every upgrade in the game to encourage even more unemployed to hoard plat (for rent?).

Stormfeather isn’t the problem. Employment is the problem.

Weekends exist.

And if you work full time AND you work weekends, then your playtime probably prohibits you from a lot more than just Stormfeather.
