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

Is this a serious question? Casuals have been getting loads of VP, which will become the new poopsock instead of ToV. So good luck getting a Warrior epic in a casual guild, since the top guilds are gonna fight tooth and nail for Hoshkar/Severilous again (something we currently don’t even bother with half the time). Good luck getting a Wizard epic, because just like Kunark, VS will be locked down by the top guilds. How many times has a casual guild gotten a ring war because top guilds are locked into ToV windows for 2+ days. Not anymore....the top guilds will sit in GD waiting to FTE since we don’t have anything else to do. How many casual guilds get fear golems, because those top guilds don’t even bother unless CT pops. Same with ST....AM/Core/AG will keep toons parked and ready for golems at all times.

This agreement basically turns every other piece of content into a giant poopsock, in exchange for letting smaller guilds have a chance at ToV loot 3-4 times a year. This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen.

"In the event of an earthquake/simpop, ToV will be FFA until the following cycle. This does not apply to HoT."

If it's FFA during an earthquake with between 1-3 earthquakes a month HOW DOES THIS SOLVE ANY OF THE THINGS BRKANAR SAW AS ISSUES. An 8 way rotation is going to stretch out several months lol. Much longer than the 8 weeks people seem to think it's going to take. Maybe you'll get your rotation shot once every 90 days ...maybe.... This isn't sky spawning twice a day, these are 7 days spawns with +/-8 hours variance..

Also I find his statement about HoT at the end of the last paragraph very ambiguous. Did he mean to say HoT is not part of the rotation (in which case, does that include Dozekar?) Or does he mean HoT is not FFA during an earthquake......

I'm pretty certain Braknar just went on a bender and made that post. It isn't thought through at all and I refuse to believe someone in charge of the server could be that short-sighted while sober.

For as many people that hate this change like myself, there are just as many who will take this change as a good thing and will continue to play here.

I am secretly hoping this is all for a new server they are launching

It seems like people are ignoring that eathquakes and simulated repops are full FFA. The main guilds will get fewer ToV dragons, but the competition isn't completely dead. If they could somehow automate earthquakes to occur on average once every two weeks (small chance on every server tick), I think this could work out all right.

I dunno, I haven't raided in years, so my opinion ain't worth much.

Lol I’m not even raging. I’m going to enjoy watching this blow up in everyone’s face. Lol

How anyone thinks rotating one piece of content helps with petitions is beyond me. The problem will still exist, it’s just gonna exist in a different zone

This is insanely stupid. Bring back warders, fuck bring out luclin, cause this is going to kill raiding on this server for many guilds.
Let's automate raiding, yeah think about it. We can remove the body sacks who just click a couple buttons. We will then have a more streamlined loot process.

Should have learned to code.
