*crickets*

Cool interaction!


There is no player interaction or negotiation happening when 1 guild locks something down with the intention to denying access to other guilds. It is a strategy, yes, but don't try to act like if interested parties just interacted more, the problem would be resolved.

Also legacy items are not about competition, so though I think we'd ahve been fine without lists, and probubly cherish our treasures more, there is nothing about those items that has anything to do with competition.. (OK well manastone could) but, obtaining those were like, things that players have wanted for 20 years, and it was pretty ok to give them a bone to get it if they wanted one.

But competition? Having lists? That's quite the opposite of the definition. So yeah, I just dont get it at all.

IMO holding down spawns should be a tactic, it requires dedication and teamwork and planning and a willingness to win.

Just seems wrong IMO add instancing, in the name of competition.

Do it in the name of wanting a easier game, but not in the name of competition.
In no way is this instancing...it’s not even close to instancing and your argument makes no sense.

You’re picking a really odd hill to die on here

Jib, the real competition will be seeing who can kill what in Plane of Sky. If only one guild has Summon Corpse, it's no contest.

I respect the meritocracy argument when it comes to just mobilizing the fastest and racing and getting fte and killing a dragon. Passing a camp off to other guild members and ignoring everyone else is just gay and bad, and requires next to no elite elf skills

However they did give away a flayed turmoil skin belt!!!

It's not really an instance. It would be an instance if 10 different dorks could all get the spell at the same time on the same day.

Its a form of instance. If you show up with your warmbody you get the camp/item given enough time regardless of other players.

If you don't know what instancing is, then shut your stupid fucking mouth.

Thanks, have a nice day!
