Not difficult to achieve at that stage of the game tbh. Surprised that the sleeper was able to slumber that long.

Oh and lure hit the sleeper as well, not just manaburn.
It's not that Sleeper couldn't be done.
The reason it wasn't awakened sooner was because people wanted to farm the gear that they knew would no longer drop once the sleeper was awakened.

It was considered to be a dick move at the time to complete the cycle while other guilds were still trying to gear up.

I'm in the Fires of Heaven was the first to kill the sleeper boat(wasn't the actual model not even in yet? i could have sworn i remember hearing about a giant human model).

But the only reason Sleeper wasn't killed earlier was because people were too concerned with farming the ST gear, and like previously mentioned, waking him or killing him was considered a dick move.

Another point worth noting is that once the sleeper is awake and you fail to kill him, you don't get another shot, so the fact that the wiki said the gm respawned him and gave rallos another shot makes their kill worthless anyway.

just my 2c [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Fennin Ro never got to try to kill the sleeper cause some dick move by a group caused him to spawn and despawn. THANKS HAPPYFEET <3

I was at the sleeper kill (in MiM), and I have to ask how that makes it worthless? He would've been dead the first time if GMs didn't despawn him.

You are worthless for not reading any of the post... the GM's despawned him.. it was no fault of ours that we had to do it twice...

Conquest never killed (or to my knowledge ever even attempted) the sleeper. The drama over their exploit was on one of the warders.

Doesn't matter how he's despawned when he's gone he's gone. When a ref makes a bad call, you don't get to restart the game, you just gonna have to deal with it. When you order a chalupa from taco bell and you get home and find out they gave you a gordita you don't get a free chalupa next time you go to tacobell you just have to deal with the healthier version. Sure your colon will thank you but you were really looking forward to the greasy goodness of the chalupa. Catchin what im saying brah?

Actually I'm pretty sure a GM can spawn as many Sleepers as he wanted. It wouldnt help the continuity of the game, but it is in their power to do so.

In any sport Ive ever watched head coaches can refute any call, good or bad, requesting an official review. It doesnt restart the game but you dont just have to "deal with it".

Taco Bell has a customer service standard that includes mistakes to a customers orders. If you ordered a Chalupa, and received a Gordita, you can just go back and get your free Chalupa. As far as you colon thanking you, id highly doubt that ones colon appreciates any Taco Bell tbh.

It's not a matter of what they can/can't do, of course gm's can do whatever they want, it's a matter of how the mob was designed. The encounter was designed as a 1 shot deal, giving someone 2 shots regardless of the reasoning would be counter to the design, and therefore not a valid "win" of the encounter. I suppose its a matter of opinion whether you thing design of encounters>gm or gm>design of encounter.


The rest of your quote responses aren't really worth replying to, but i'm glad you enjoyed them.

was on RZ as Krypto the Mage in Wudan. Was quite a nice feat, esp. assembling the force again a night later to kill him for good, after a GM despawned him the night before. Friend got the killshot, damm him (Trylun)!

oh and RZ ftw, there was nowhere such a political tension between the guilds than on this server. A war between the topguilds made raiding impossible but it was damm entertaining.

Try and keep up…

Most servers awakened the sleeper during velious, when he was nigh unbeatable. Rz had the supposed worst tension and guild feuding, yet they could all agree not to awaken the sleeper. That’s why I was surprised that he was able to slumber that long.
