Without contested spawns there is no real competition. Eqnext is gonna suck just like eq2 did after a few years. The only thing that makes p99 a bitch to play is that the content is bottlenecked. Join a guild and have fun. Best you can do.

It takes 20 people to kill almost anything. These big raid guilds designed around constant tracking and 24/7 availability would be multiple guilds.
TMO 1-10 FE/IB 1-15.

You don't think.
Which obviously is not an actual impedement to a rotation working. The only impedement is the one in your head that's shouting at you about losing pixels.

No the impediment is very basic. What person or group of people is going to want to wait 30-40 weeks to raid something if they have a desire to raid?

Considering the amount of work that goes into the current raid scene, I'm going to say everyone in TMO/IB/FE. Also as per usual you are screwing up basic math. If we did have 40 guilds on the server, with ~20 targets they'd get one target every other week each.

All of your arguments boil down to 'I don't want to share'. Now I don't personally have an issue with that, but you should just be straight about it rather than pretending that the current system is superior from a utilitarian perspective.

1. I didn't do any math just an estimate, and that was a quick estimate on a single target not on every target.

2. My argument boils down to I don't want to wait, and I prefer to compete. (Cause thats fun.) If someone wants rotations or instances they know what games to play, thats not classic EQ.

Don't demean the rest of your culture. I am sure many french would have noticed that "Do" was an unnecessary word and obviously intended for a different sentence that was left/edited out.

Faulty logic, rotations were classic EQ on my server.

On which targets. What do you deem as Classic? Does your 1 server represent the many? Also, prove it. So far someone was able to show 1 rotation on 1-3 targets during Velious.

No, I don't see the problem at all. In the drawing scenario everyone on the server has an equal chance of getting to see Vox and Naggy. Might take them awhile to win a drawing, but they can always work with the people who do win if they're impatient. And even if they do have to wait awhile, even a whole year, that still beats ... never.

In the current scenario, one guild is the only one that gets to see either dragon. Seems like the drawing is a lot better for everyone on the server except TMO, and the current situtaion is good for ... TMO.
