Just flag sleeperwakers for key deletion?

Ooh, I like this idea!

Honestly, there's a lot of hate in this thread about "not classic, blah blah, I have a stick up my butt about what's considered classic in my opinion". FACT: CLASSIC was that people only had to wait like maybe a year TOPS before they could raid ST after the Sleeper woke up. That fact isn't up for dispute, that's the way it went, it was the plan all along, etc. The way we've got it is NOT sticking with the plan. Right? Right.

Back to opinions though: people are playing on P99 to experience the Classic, Kunark, and Velious content, and not Classic, Kunark, and 87% of the Velious Content. I call this my "opinion", but it's pretty much a no-brainer that people don't play so that they can not experience content...

There's lots of options for how to open up this content, to be honest. It's just finding one that people feel right about, is the only question.

Option A: Early Bird gets the worm, there will only ever be one worm (not classic), everyone else loses.

Option 2: A one time reset of Sleeper's Tomb, don't screw it up this time, asshats.

Option D: A periodic reset of Sleeper's Tomb. Once every (X amount of time), ST resets.

Door #4: Follow the actual plan/timeline for Sleeper's Tomb, AKA release ST 2.0, the version after The Sleeper woke up.

My vote is actually for #4, because even though it technically happened during "Luclin timeframe", it's Velious, with Velious level loot (primals basically get re-branded as "Ancient Prismatic" instead, same stats though), and some of the old "classic" stuff never drops again, making it extremely unique/rare/special. The stuff that drops in ST 2.0 wouldn't imbalance the current game in any way either. It also isn't any kinf od a "custom version" of anything, so people don't have their nerd alarm go off and lose their friendly shit over it being "not classic". On the contrary, it's as classic as can be, because it's the REAL end of the timeline for Sleeper's tomb.

However, if too many nerd alarms are indeed tripped by that "Not Classic ***TIMELINE***" solution, then my vote is for either of the other 2 options, in order to open up content to the CURRENT and FUTURE playerbase.

Had an idea I'd like to share and see if maybe we can make it happen! My idea was every year or maybe twice a year, the generous server staff we have resets Sleeper's Tomb and deletes all keys on the server.

This could bring the server new life as it will:


What do you guys think?

In b4 "not classic" but we have FTE messages, 25 mobs per AoE spells, basically every raid rule, and all other things done for the betterment of the server!

I don't think the staff should do jack shit too reward shitty behaviour

Maybe look for another game rather then breaking the rules over n over n over on this one n think you deserve any of ur ideas listen too.

Far too reasonable of a thing to do for these people. Detoxx will be "competing" for the same dragons with the same paint by numbers tactics here 10 years from now.

No. Do not want to see any more monk robes on server ever.

Love your quotes

Definitely fits with their agenda

The sleeper is gone and it should stay that way. Let the few special snowflakes that experienced that keep their accomplishment, hell it's probably the best thing they've done with their life tbh. I don't have a problem with the rest of ST spawning like normal though, this server isn't progressing any further.

Terrible idea.

-A/A has the ability to obtain keys at a faster rate than others, so this nonclassic change greatly benefits them while harming everyone else. They want to up the barrier to entry now that guilds other than A/A have jumped through the hoop of obtaining ST keys.

-Each month, as we move closer to another key wipe, the relative value of your new key decreases. Guilds will be working in months 11/12 to get keys that will only be useful for a few trips into ST at most before the yearly wipe.

-Obtaining a ST key requires putting serious time and effort into your guild. Anyone starting midway through a "key respawn cycle" will find it impossible to catch up, and will have to wait until the next yearly cycle to begin.

The second two issues are solvable by having the key on a 12 month timer, instead of a "once per year total wipe" of all keys.
