Boycott of Multiquest prices

[Rhambuk]

yeah id say spending 100+ farming hillgiants is far from lazy.

but its definitely not in the spirit.

[drakelord]

It's not lazy at all. If anything, it's anti-social. But I can understand why people wouldn't want to join TMO or something just for an epic.

It's also not 'in the spirit' when there are people that go and farm the limited access pieces in order to MQ them.

I have probably pinged 20+ raids that are in pofear asking if i can join in and help out on my enc or shaman and be able to loot a tear if it drops. There is ALWAYS someone there that either a) needs it (respectable) or b) someone farming them for MQ purposes.

I have limited time to play. It's easier for me to pay 25k for the tear. Not to mention I already farmed the faction / did the quest legitimately up to the hole. *shrug*

I think a big part of the problem here is many times you can't do the proper quest because MQ farmers block it, thus you're forced to farm HGs for xx hours to buy it.

How is farming for long enough to afford an MQ, a lack of effort? That's a lot of farming...

I'll never understand that argument. To me, it makes no sense to state that it is being 'lazy' to buy an MQ.

Not really. Two good rolls on choice kunark loot and you have it.

The idea is that MQ should be used only if necessary. Its become the norm. ZERO reason why a monk should have to roll against the group on a pipe in chardok. ZERO.

And an epic quest stage is not meant be: a) get lucky on 2 rolls on choice loot in kunark or b) kill 500 hill giants.

Its meant to be: hunt this uncommon thing, and loot its precious so you can move onto the next part.

Sad to know i'm just spinning my wheels explaining this.

Mq prices are too damn high!

Maybe I don't do enough seafuries... but how are you making 25k and "not having time" to get to a Fear raid for a tear? :/

Mqing epics is against the vision as stated by brad. Not sure why it's on p99

That depends on the epic. Shaman, Cleric, Rogue... Sure

Magician... Necromancer... Druid... Wizard. Unless those choice loots are prenerf fungi staves, no.


RBG, SBC, Fungi, T Staff. Those are what, 120k-50k?

Then look at what TMO is charging for certain epic pieces:

http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...light=Seawater - lol 1.1 million for ranger/Druid epic
http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...ighlight=Slime - lol, 950k for necro epic, 500k for half of wizard epic, 500k for half of warrior epic, oh look Druid/ranger epic is down to only 800k

Two choice rolls. Not really...


Really want Velious epic changes to come soon. Kill the gouging on wizard and Druid/ranger epics. Velious planar changes to cut down magician and necro epics would be fantastic too.
