Can anything be done about multiquesting?

[renordw]

I've had this conversation before with some of my friends here, but I realize that the sentiment may be more widespread than I originally thought.

Multiquesting makes things less available to less established players, and encourages RMT.

I welcome any discussion.

So is getting banned for it.

If something is less available to you because you are less established, establish yourself.

If you want welfare shit, go play World of Warcraft.


e: explain your logic behind the claim that MQing encourages RMT? How does it encourage RMT more than farming/selling tradable items? Hypothetical scenario: remove NO DROP tag from all MQable items: what has changed with regards to selling/buying/ability to complete quests?

I don't really play here much (20-30 min at a time), because I can't honestly give up my entire life to get an epic. I got pretty far, and realized the next tier of advancement would require more time than I can put in.

That's one way to do it, but another way that actually makes lore sense would be to just make them NO DROP, period.

That's cool, man. Some people play casually, and some play hardcore. One of those groups are not going to get BiS gear, but it's still possible to enjoy EQ without it.

At this point, removing MQ would serve no purpose. The cat's out of the bag since it's been going on for years already

A free market is good game design.

Game wasn't designed to be stagnant though.
