A modest proposal: Limit guild sizes

Zerging is just the most effective strategy for getting loot, particularly when there are no good methods for combating the zerg.

• Item loot isn't enabled, can't take their pixels.
• Training isn't allowed, can't use mobs to even the numbers
• Pelling raid targets and similar aren't allowed, can't disrupt raids.
• High resists and OP weapons ensure that strategies like nuking key targets and AoE are less effective and BiS melee are king, one less way to combat the zerg.
• No reward for PvP, no reason not to join the zerg if it's well-managed.

Things will remain as they are unless the server rules change.

I don't think training AND item loot would be healthy, but a choice of one or the other would be healthy. Personally i think item loot is better, it forces people to either run around naked and be easier targets, or risk high value resist gear.

It seems like the current rules favors the zerg and makes R99 into P99 2.0

Colgate and gong could take 12 people and prevent 100 man zerg from killing shit in ntov, why does everyone else suck?

Yeah, they can. Too bad there's no incentive to do so because no item loot or related reward. Stopping a raid from killing a mob is a lot easier than stopping them and killing the mob yourself, week after week.

There's a pretty good limit on em if you consider server pop if ya catch my drift

[Kergan]

This idea gets suggested about every other week. It is dum every time.

Empire could basically just be all of our clerics under 1 tag, rest could be guildless, we would still kill the same shit.

OP is retard

I have been saying this for a long time but...

they should scale mob difficulty according to how many people are in the zone (in pvp range obviously)

Rampage can kill vulak with 35, make that the standard

make the game more challenging, this is Everquest not Zergquest...

if there is an opposing guild in the zone pvp must happen first

I know this is exploitable by having most of the guild wait outside the zone etc but its better than nothing

at least gives people a chance to break up the zerg and figt even numbers

This is a classic Everquest emulator. If you don't like it leave.
