Hello,

Maybe you just don't understand how URN discord works?

Urn cost remains high
The urn cost is entirely a function of supply and demand. Angry goblin is a /random roll and the Skargus head MQ is 100k. So, /random is not going to suddenly make Urns affordable.

Guilds are pemanently farming the item still
This is patently false. We have members of ALL of the top guilds in URN discord, as well as many unguilded individuals. Working together, we can compete against farm crews and win. The blue URN discord group has gotten 90%+ of the last 50 urns. And new members are welcomed every week.

Still does not provide a fair opportunity to all members of the server
This also is patently false. Each person in the discord is a separate individual, and time spent at the camp is tracked in an "active camp" channel, with a waiting list. As soon as anyone has hit their maximum quota of hours for the day, they are automatically replaced by the next person in the replacement queue. So anyone is able to "/rep add" themselves and jump in when their turn is up. When an Urn drops, the person present with the highest number of accumulated hours gets to loot it, and their hours drop to 0. The daily maximum quota and active group size can be adjusted if needed to ensure everyone has a fair opportunity to earn.

This system is so good, equitable, and effective that it provided the firepower needed to push dedicated farm crews and give everyone a fair shot at earning their Urn.

Finally, a group of people working together killing 5 mobs every 20-minute cycle is relaxing, not "unhealthy". There's a lot of casual conversation both in group and discord, and people pop in and out according to their schedule. Conversely, a random roll kills the community - you log in, roll, and /q; It's antithetical to the community aspect that this game exists for.
