The result of a lack of effort is less valuable. Drop the server's raid protection value. We have competed with other guilds, spent 30 to 40 hours a week together, and won and lost. Rotation raid makes some guild efforts worthless. Imagine that everyone could easily get items from state to state without any special effort, so they never waited 12 to 24 hours to win, nor did they prepare the items. And they've never been to a test server for a practice. I saw this and felt communism. Not everyone is equal.
You have to want, try, and practice. If the guild doesn't have the power to compete, it's better to just build up the power and compete together.
It's like putting an Instant Dungeon system on p99. Your p99 proud contents are dying. Try and achieve. P99 is not North Korea.

I agree but I also don't belong in the top guilds.

P99 is a museum with a bricked off exit door. The players here are torn between what can function in this environment and what is "classic". The players are here because of that old EQ pull but nothing will replicate that other than a time machine.

Nothing you say here is wrong within the context of these walls, we have players that don't remember socking and doing these things to win so it conflicts with memories which are part of this servers aim. At best you get a bastard compromise.

Yeah, I am let down that our age group is no longer a market focus and games like EQ, not specifically EQ, will never be made again so we can all move on. It happens.

Cheers! 30 somethings

I notice no one has started a discussion thread for this... This is a significant change to the server and will most definitely affect every guild involved including pickup raiders like Lord Bobbers.

What are everyone's thoughts on this? Let's keep the discussion kosher.

Not to mention without a large chunk of the server (AM, AG, Core+BG, whatever is left of Tempest) spending several days a week in TOV the xp zones and cash camps are going to to all be on lockdown making the overcrowding problems so much worse, which is going to result in that many more petitions and frustrated players.

Lol all the casual am players are crying cause their 7 day weekly free loot conveyor belt is stopping and the hard core addicts that lock other guilds out of content because dealing with them in tov is such a nightmare are crying as well. Loot pinatas indeed

An awful idea, with obvious unintended consequences that will hurt those it seeks to help, as all commie ideas do.

As someone whose been dreaming of a staff of the silent star, this is devastating. Just instance the zone. This change is horrific, and the consequences will be real and immediate.

sorry you don't get to monopolize the server anymore for your 7 day free loot conveyor belt!
