If you feel you are being "exploited" by the open raid just.... don't attend? Not that hard.

At least PoG will see some action this way, it's a real waste of a zone with its current bugs and Tunare's awful loot table.

a third option is alerting others that they're being taken advantage of and should also not attend. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Thumbs down

It's a shame to call this an "open raid" and compare it to the likes of what Paradox and other guilds have done in the past, where they have let everyone attending to roll on loot. This certainly isn't in the same spirit as those, and comes off as a thinly veiled attempt at exploiting the more casual population on the server.

Would Awakened not be able to clear the zone without the help of an open raid? Because if not, this just seems like a good opportunity to let players get a chance at relatively nice loot that would either rot or go to a tenth alt or something. Like others, I would love the chance to roll on some of those amazing Tunare drops as well and it would be incredibly charitable of them to offer that, but it's just not realistic to expect them to allow everyone in attendance to roll on BiS gear when they don't really need outside help to kill the mob in the first place. As others have said, if you don't like the way it's set up either don't go, or run your own in the future with rules the way you would like them to be. Personally, I appreciate whenever anyone on the server does these open types of raids that allows me to see content and drops I otherwise would not.

If we are lucky enough to down the Queen of the Elves ( Praise her!! ), there is a strong possibility that Awakened might not get 1 unique drop from her loot table as she is currently bugged in that regards.

The focus of this raid is for people to dust off their classic raiding shoes and crawl through a zone spending time with one another while enjoying the company of fellow elf stimulator brethren. If the zone gets cleared in a timely manner, who knows what all will go down with Tunare and her loot - maybe if we get 3 drops and the clear was so smooth and fun we /random one of them - you just never will know...until you come out !

I’m sure they’re distraught over you not attending to roll on their Tunare loot. You don’t belong to their guild. How did you feel you were entitled to Tunare loot? This isn’t something new. These clears have been happening since Rampage days.

These guilds could easily tell everyone to suck a dick if it’s going to be more of a hassle to get people to join for loot that would otherwise rot. You should probably join better guilds if you want better loot.

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

If they help down Tunare how are they not entitled to the loot.

That's probably true. ^

But the altruistic way would be to run a PUG raid and let everyone that attend to roll on all loots.

If it's so easy for them to run the raid without everyone, then they probably should just do that then if they want to cherry pick loots for their guild and exclude contributing people from specific loots. It comes off poorly imo.

I don't think it's a feeling of entitlement wanting a chance to roll on the best loots when everyone is contributing on an announced PUG raid.

Oh well, w/e it aint my raid and everyone has their own perspective on the matter.

Have fun peoples if you go. And if you don't go? Have fun doing other things. Is the nature of P99.
