Everyone would just have 5 max gear toons. alts would flourish.

Think about all the time spent in ToV on sunday. You are willing to do that potentially 3 times a week? Even on a weekday? I just don't see it happening.

I guarantee there is ~200 people on P99 willing to do just that.

Aaryonar should be the gateway mob to a proposed NToV rotation, as he literally already is.

I said a long time ago on the raid discussion that I think if you cut all the mobs spawn timers in half a lot of these problems go away. So any 3 day spawn is now 36 hours and any 7 day spawn is 3.5 days I just find it hard to believe that if all of NToV is spawning every 3.5 days that you will have people going so damn crazy. It would just be way too much raiding for people. Mobs will get left up, other guilds will have a shot, you might even see a bit of decorum between people seeing as you losing a target isn't the end of the fucking world when it comes up again in 3 days.

You're crazy - it would be the same thing just 2x a week instead of once.

There is ~5-6 NToV capable guilds/alliances on this server - I can't think of a server that had more than two during Velious on Live, that means even 2x as many spawns wouldn't be enough. ToV is meant to be used as 1 guild per wing - that's why they eventually rooted everything, removed safe spots, etc - basically to force crawling through the zone instead of training or camping out inside.

It has been confirmed that Aary is the Big Boss of NToV #itisknown

1. Take every raiding character belonging to those guilds and permabind them in ToV.
2. Restrict their ability to zone out.
3. Leave them there for six months.

That way, they can still have their shitfest with each other 24 hours a day, only it'll be contained to one zone and won't trickle down onto the rest of us.

At the end of six months, those left standing can emerge from ToV with their fancy pixels and we can all be impressed. Ohhh wow, your 16 hour coth ducking sessions and 4am batphones earned you the Spergy Blade of Sundering! OMG. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This is just about the case now. I only occasionally encounter Forsaken or Awakened tags in-game. They sequester themselves away in Temple Veeshan and hardly exist in most the rest of the game. That's fine by me. I don't much care what they do or how much they hate each other as long as it isn't spilling over into the parts of the game I enjoy.

Its pretty clear after reading what alot of you suggested that a rotation wouldn't work for many reasons. And its clear that some of you absolutely hate each other which is fine, competition is what makes us all keep playin.

I am just thinking of 3 months, 6 months, 1 yr from now. Is this how you want NToV to be? I mean obviously both parties are going to do the mage thing for now, we all want upgrades and like myself, are too addicted to this game to not go hard to get those mobs.

Even if we all cant agree on most things, I think we can all agree that we want to somehow create the most enjoyable NToV possible with the 16hr windows were given.

Some people disagree.

[kjs86z]

Man, end game raiding sure does sound like a shit fest.

How do you people get any enjoyment out of this crap?
