I am not sure their plan for dealing with this - seems enough people have a Red Scare-esque fear about this tactic that as Happy says can be emulated using the Options menu already built into everyone's client...

Does framerate limiting at driver/WinEQ2 level produce the same effect? If so it doesn't even need to be an in-game option, and wouldn't be able to be removed without some DLL magic or something. I wouldn't feel good about using this, personally. Too gray-area for my tastes.

Idk but if someone was willing to burn themselves in order to burn others with this rule it's possible. Yes the footage I've seen shows both guilds doing this. You couldn't really burn one without the other.

Is everyone now forced to play at 100fps?
How will this be policed when everyone stops posting fraps on youtube?
Will they be taking the In-game setting to change fps out of the client?
Will it become illegal to play in Window mode?

Either way Awakened will follow the server rules, If the GM's state that it is illegal to change your FPS settings Awakened will follow.
really dunno why you're posting about this so much, but alt+tab jumping has a much bigger effect than simply limiting your fps

alt+tab jumping causes frame skips which makes you jump further, the effect is compounded if you do it while going downhill

can thank nalken for teaching the server his strategy via fraps though

I will say this though, Hjial's PC runs so fucking smooth. I watched some of his FTE videos and his EQ client looks so damn nice. Crazy frame rates.

I just bought a new PC and I havent loaded up P99 yet on it, I only hope its as smooth as his videos cause back when I raced, i couldnt even run fraps with it or i would just lag out.

comparing a questionable jumping tactic to being able to hit a mob when they cant hit you - wow.

It was an awesome past few days. Thanks to all the guilds in on the agreement. We got to nail some targets that are otherwise a shit show. This set the tone of a perfect setting for a PvE server. As far as I knew the competitors played PvP so I'm not sure who some of you top guys think you're kidding?

I have no major qualms with Awakened or Aftermath, but your "leading of the server" can be questionable at best. Poopsocking, FTE racing, and lawyerquesting is some of the most ridiculous MMO stuff I've seen. I urge you guys to work with us all more on spreading out this content. We're not all interested in talking about how great we are. We already know it, and quite frankly, FoH, Anonymous, and Venerate fucking crushed our targets that you guys think are only reserved for the "top notch" players. We don't even have the gear that you guys do from consistently farming the top Tier targets... sooo that should tell you something. It's asinine to talk about how to or who knows how to manage MMO strats. To quote the "17 year old elf simulator" quote, this ain't anyone's first rodeo.

For Karana's sake, open the throne rooms and vaults to diplomacy already. The real war is with the Dragons and Giants, and you're not the only ones who can do this anymore. Everyone else just did. Time to stop with the "how great are we though?" stuff.

We get timers and track raid mobs guided by servers raiding ruleset and somewhere in there we are suppose to be stewards of the servers raid pixels?

wat

no one is excluding anyone and certainly no one said these mobs were unkillable by entities not named A/A.

TMO monopoly is long gone-lots of gear is out there now. Thats when it was hard to catch up...one guild had epics and no one else did...
