obviously theres a best faction and people are going to want the best but there is a viable option to do something else unlike now

I'm also not sure why I quoted you. I think I thought you were saying that more content means less ass-hattery, which it doesn't. It just means its diffused more and allows more guilds to step up to the ass hat level of behavior. The trick of the uber guild is to force the number 2 and 3 guilds to fight each other for the crumbs, not to compete with the top guild. So more content might just mean seeing more TMO like guilds. Hence the reason why Velious itself isn't a cure-all, its a temporary relief if all things stay as they are now in Kunark (which they might not). Which is why I agree with the staff/Rogean for wanting to fix the raid game before Velious is released.

Like you, I prob need a break from forumquest... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There really isn't a best faction. Skyshrine armor is slightly better than Kael for casters; Kael slightly better for melee. You're right, that Velious increases available raid content and time sinks by an order far greater than kunark and classic.

The uber guilds will do all factions, at least as much as they will want to do the bosses in each faction (Dain, Yelinak, and Tormax/Vindi/AoW) and expect you to fix your faction for quest turn-ins on your own time...which isn't really that hard, considering most EQ time sinks.
