Chardok PL and PnP

[indiscriminate_hater]

You're assuming people do chardok 7 days a week, and that you can always grab a spot when they are, and that you can always find a buyer when you're in on it. Also taking into account losses from selling in bulk (you can't realistically sell single batches of pp) the non-trivial risk of getting busted, and the time spent actually finding a buyer, it's really not that attractive of a money making operation.

Please find a like minded group of anti-chardok freedom fighters to perma camp the fort entrance 24/7. Name the guild <Avalanche> b/c Chardok AE is draining the lifeforce from the server and nothing short of terrorist activism is gonna stop it.

Skyfire AE was the thing before Chardok. Can we blame that too for the downfall of p99?

Low hp kiting was way worse than chardok. Imagine chardok aoe but a single person (or two) getting all of the exp

If TMO was the main guild doing it, probably.

it's classic and it happened on live, and chardok was not the only zone that people would AOE in.

Aoe may have been classic on live, but it was absolutely nowhere near the numbers of mobs per pull we see here.

The only people defending Chardok AOEing are

1) The people making piles of plat doing it
2) The raiding guilds who use(d) that method to PL two dozen rogue and cleric accounts in the months before Velious released.

Chardok AEing artificially inflated the servers endgame population 100 fold; there's no denying that. I know people with 13 level 60 toons, only one of which they "legitimately" levelled. People with SEVERAL lvl 60s of the same class, paid for by their raiding guild, so they can have a rogue or monk parked in every possible raid zone at all times.

It's complete fucking nonsense

One of the main reasons people AoE in Chardok to begin with, is the zone basically sucks for grouping compared to other Kunark dungeons. The only reason to go in there is for a handful of drops that the AoE groups do a fine job of flooding EC with anyway. Think about how easier it is to get a Sarnak Battle Shield on p99 than it was on live.

As for all this fight the system talk about shutting down Chardok PLing...The cat is out of the bag, don't you think? Players don't play this sim anything like players on live played. There is way more emphasis on efficiency and min/maxing. Also players make multiple raid-geared alts, which I doubt more than a handful of people per server on live had. I also seriously doubt anyone played on a server with 2 or more guilds that utilized half a dozen factioned mage alts...

This thread again lolz.

I've done Chardok AOE probably more times than any person in here talking out of their ass. None of those times has a group come in to exp. Do you know why? Because it's difficult to get people together and travel all the way to Chardok for 2-3 hours of exp, which is about as long as most people have the time for these days. And if you wipe you're going to be praying that group of AOEers with the non-KOS puller and cleric are still hanging out at the entrance waiting for it to end. This entire thread is nonsense. The next one will be also.
