not a single player has told me to plan on raiding

...in the raiding scene there is no where else to move to after being 2 and a half years overdue for velious, so we try to keep entertained with what we currently have to raid which is pretty limited considering the amount of level 60's on two and a half years of stagnant content

Yes there is, onto another game or something else. =)

Owned. In other words: It's a great big world out there... take a break. Other kids want a ride, too...

color me crazy here, but you don't post/act like you've only played a char to 30 here... that being said - whoever told you that is barely half-right. You can raid anything up till CT / Inny / Trak / VP ... those are usually taken by TMO upon spawning. So there it is.

I can actually guarantee you that Sadre has only played a char to 30 here. As his former arch-nemesis, he is indeed a bundle of crazy.

I am also one of the people who told him that raiding wasn't worth it. We both came from Fippy progression server where raiding was shit and I likened it to be very similar - large tracking projects, poopsocking, 2-3 guilds whining at each other about FTE and lots of rampant cheating. I personally haven't witnessed any of it because I've refused to take part in any of it.

I joined a raiding guild @ 56 w/ the explicit guidelines that I wasn't going to wait at a spawn point. When I was told to go log my character at trak ledge and play an alt until he popped i realized that's just another form of it, so I took a 3 month hiatus in disgust. Back now, leveling up with my wife just trying to have fun. The response in this thread is proof positive that there is a sickness @ the top end of this server.

Please pray tell, tell us all about ANY past or present EQ Game or ANY server that is not the same. I dare you, double dare you.

Did i claim that such a server existed? I said the raiding was crap. Am I wrong?

You are not wrong. I am just saying it is no different here than has ever been anywhere lol. Why do so many people have their pantyhose in a knot about it is beyond me.

But why the rightous apathy? IMO its better to at least talk about than it is to sit around and go "ohh well thats the way it is" (eeyore voice).

so, back in the days of 1999-2000ish the everquest server Tarrew-Marr was not really like that. people pretty much shared to be nice.

As far as I know, there is no other EQ server in existence in which Variance is the game mechanic for raid targets. That creates about 10 unique problems to this server alone.

And the Devs have said over and over they are NOT going to touch it with a 10' pole. So unless TMO and FE just all give up and moves to the Sleeper Server guess what?? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I am not in anyway happy with this crap either. But I gave up long time ago ever getting my Driuid Epic or any Uber as hell gear on this server.

This server is almost 4 years old now. What has changed on the raid scene? Nothing. Just a few different guild names but pretty much the same old shit. And when Velious ever comes out it will be just as bad there also. We will have 1,200 people or more on. And guess what, a hell of a lot of them will be all level 60's. And a LOT of them will be in TMO. Good luck even getting into Kael, FToS etc. So nothing has happened in 4 years and you think a Thread with 65 pages is going to change anything after this long. I have some Waterfront prop I will sell you in Nevada.

Having raided end game tarew marr, i can confirm.

End game on p99 has never been close to the same end game that I experienced from 1999-2002.

Same on Prexus. I was able to complete my ranger epic while a part of a casual guild thanks to a raid alliance with another casual guild and with one of the "top" guilds on the server who was nice enough to let me tag along on Inny and VS kills. What are the chances of that happening on p99? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
