There’s nothing fun about killing Ventani, a dragon that has AE damage/slow and requires 12 clerics in a 1 second chain over a 15 min -25 min fight.

Ugh really? Let’s not reset the sleeper. As a cleric main, I find AoW tedious enough. This sounds miserable. Will no one think of the clerics??

Tldr.

Screw fear, the real fear zone is Temple of Cazic Thule!

Let's put a reset on that and allow the rubes to loot their rubicite armour!!

Just...please.

You can't "devalue" something that's 20 years ago and only had value for about a year on a server that takes YEARS to implement single expansions or patches.

You're making a mountain of a molehill, and appealing to..something. Nostalgia maybe.

Timeline? What cause we're staying in velious?
This fact doesnt change the fact that THE SLEEPER is an iconic Everquest mob known as being "unkillable" and "only wakes once"

So I stand by what I say....you devalue The Sleeper by respawning him for anyone that cries hard enough. No wonder Everquest turned to shit eventually and games like WOW began flooding the market. Developers started listening to people like you.

Your argument might work if P99 was actually run by Daybreak and costed money to play. I thought this server is meant for people to experience the game in a way you cannot on live servers.

Incorrect. This server is replicating classic Everquest from 99-01 as closely as possible. Meant to be a museum of sorts. Sleeper on live was NEVER respawned for people, so why would it be here? Because you and about 98% of the server missed out? It sucks but it’s the way the lore and the mob works and it’s always how it’s worked. Respawning it just because ppl cry is bad form. Good thing the people in charge seem to be classic purists (for the most part) so I don’t expect them to listen to all the tears.

There are a lot of things that are different here so who cares if some shit is respawned so other people could participate in fight and loots drops. It doesn't really matter to me though because I am casual scum.

Guy, you are doing a lot of assuming about my motives for my opinion.

Your motives are clear.

Incorrect. The server isn't replicating 99-01 anymore. Its only replicating Late Velious and its stuck there.
Devs may as well change name to P-LateVelious, since there is nothing 99 about it left.

Of sorts.

Emphasis on.

Because it's a museum of sorts.

A year after the Sleeper would have been spawned on just about any live server (except those who came late to the party) the game already had another expansion and gear that made the Warder drops look like dogshit. It had more story and content to move forward with.

This stagnant little pond has some high school seniors that not only don't ever want to graduate, but also don't want anyone else to, either.

The museum metaphor really likes to get thrown around lately, and I hold whoever started it personally responsible for a lot of this nonsense, whoever it was.

Because you and about 98% of the server missed out?

It'd be more like 99.9999% of the server, that .9 only growing as the game does.

I missed it on Live, and my life isn't the lesser for it, and it's not about that.

This insistence on sentimentality always comes from the people who, for sentimental reasons and whatever shallow justifications they can cobble together, are firmly against something that there isn't actually a good argument to support not doing

It sucks but it’s the way the lore and the mob works and it’s always how it’s worked.

Finding new ways to say Classic/not Classic doesn't give you a better argument.

Respawning it just because ppl cry is bad form.

What?

Reasonable requests for a reasonable action, which are then nearly always drowned out by the elitest of the leet neckbeards that are horrified at the idea that people might be able to do something they've done on an emulated server, isn't people crying.

The conversation usually goes "Hey, this is a pretty good idea for various reasons" and then people like you whine, and cry, and complain, and tell the people like me that we're being overly emotional and gotta git gud at being at a specific place in a specific time without the luxuy of a DeLorean.

Good thing the people in charge seem to be classic purists (for the most part) so I don’t expect them to listen to all the tears.

This server is about what the devs want to have in the game, and what they do not want to have in the game, and that is the final authority that governs the game.

But two years of content stretched out into nearly a decade at this point is baaaaasically the most unClassic thing imaginable.

I'm not sure how long people think it took for the world to move from 1999 to 2001, but you know that it's not 8 years, right?

But reality isn't Classic, either.
