Nothing made me laugh harder at p99 than Hijal having to write two "heartfelt apology letters" to awakened over getting them suspended to maintain his guild status.

How humiliating.

It's all very serious business isn't it?

I just want to say. (Off topic but relevant)

You can't re fte mobs after you wipe and "re-fte" isn't a thing. So stop doing it plz. Flirting with grey areas isn't good unless you want to morph the fte hour lock rule into wipe once an hour and re fte till you got people meta to happen.

I just want to say FTE is dumb. Rotate mobs or have instances/very fast respawns.

Servers done, been beaten by 6 guilds now. Pixels are irrelevant. Just let people raid on their schedule.

Whaaaaat! The pillar of the classic community advocating instances or faster respawns?

I agree FTE is dumb, as is racing, as is tracking / screen sharing on raid mobs. I hope those things aren't fun for anyone

Instances are the best thing to happen to MMOs. It moves the challenge to the content rather than who can stare at a screen longer doing nothing else.

I'd much rather kill Jorlleag with 20-25 than get FTE off a race :/. Then again, Velious is a total shit expansion, need Luclin+PoP to entertain me.

I wonder if the people arguing in this thread are going to one day finally read their own posts and wonder where they went wrong in life. I think everyone just actively tries to be unhappy, and found that P99 is a great outlet for spreading that misery to other people. And yet P99 is never going to change because the devs are already too caught up in the A/A shitstorm.

Agreed dald, but currently we have a/a all re fte'ing mobs they either wipe too or have not engaged locking them for hours (under a false rule). Stupid as fuck. Let's make rules up as we go I'm gonna make a few actually! Hmmmmm I know my petition to sirken better be amazing and full of juicy raps / ms paints for it to be considered but dam I'll try.

The rule is vague and unfortunately that's very common. Its vague for a reason but I am trying to get with Sirken and the other top guild leaders to try and re hash these rules for some clarity.

As of right now, there is no stipulation to having to re race from the zone in in order to re lock a mob. The only stipulation ever made was a player made agreement that was torched when Awakened got suspended for that Abuse of FTE Vulak. That agreement stated that if Guild A wipes, they must wait for the mob to reset before being able to re lock, any other guild was free to lock it whenever they wanted.

This was to prevent abuse from a guild wiping and the final FTE on them going out and then being able to claim it was a re lock. Unfortunately, as seen here in the rules written in the raid section, the rule is simply this:

[QUOTE=Sirken;2449797]11/17/2016 updated to clarify something that I assumed was common sense:

And if your guild wipes, the target is considered open (not engaged) and can be FTE'd by anyone, and then that guild/raid will have an hour to make an attempt at killing the mob.QUOTE]
