Kunark was designed for level 55 cap I thinks. If we were capped at 55, it would be so much more baller around here.

Can't AE the Chardoks, can't torpor shaman everything, can't easily hold high charmed pets, way more people would get AE'd... Would be pretty fantastic.

If an item you want being locked for a week by a group of people + several others not associated with the lockdown is causing enough distress to quit then coming back a few months into Velious is going to be a very rude awakening when we have closer to live server populations knowing where all the best and coolest stuff is and camping it as often as possible.

Corpsing is a non-issue already dealt with by camp hand-off rules preventing permacamping.

Ya, a non issue if everyone follows the rules and don't choose to use one of the many ways to easily exploit them.

Exploit what?

See guy camping MOB X, call him TOON A
TOON B is sitting ten feet behind him
"/t TOON A Hey man who's next?"
"/r TOON B is next"

Oh Look, it's handled, wait your turn and stop crying because you don't want to camp the mob because you would rather be somewhere else.

Some people will make a circle, get ring, check for MQ buyers or go hand in themself/get rapier/check on Hasten

If ten people from 3 or 4 different guilds make a circle and all start corpsing the rings are you guys going to come back with tinfoil hats and another conspiracy theory?

What about the people that don't corpse it but have a guildy/friend run a mule over to loot? Should we ban that too?

ya man you IF you think someone is trying to pull shenanigans you just have to sit next to them, wait for their rep to come, sit next to them and then take camp.. its an investment in time, but if you have a cross to bare you can definitely do something about it.

If waiting through 2 rare drops in order to get the camp is too much for you, then you just dont have the stamina to camp certain names on p99.. and also in like 2 weeks you can probably find someone that will put you on list, allow you to log on an alt and youll get the camp super easy anyway.

and bonus! if you wait next to them, you can finally roll that red toon you've always wanted to roll! :P

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic. I'll respond under the assumption that you're not. For one, there's more than one way to get around that rule. IE - A friend of theirs coming along to "see if it's camped", while the camper hands off the item. And I'm sure people would find other ways around it. Secondly, you shouldn't have to sit around long enough for that item to drop twice not even knowing whether or not you'll actually get the camp. Camps in EQ can take a long time, you shouldn't have to camp it twice or three times just because there's some douchebag cockblocking you.

I made a post in either this thread or the other thread related to this one that goes into further details as to why this isn't a problem.

It's a molehill being turned into a mountain by a handful of people who expect camps to be open and available when they want them to be. That just isn't going to happen. I looked into all the major "problem" camps that people seem to be complaining about in these threads - the same camps that are "perma-camped" to the point where it's become a "serious issue" - like the AC, Tranix, etc. and found that they are all being rotated just fine. Plenty of people are getting an opportunity to camp these items - hence, a non-issue.

We don't necessarily like it, but Sirken already asked if it was possible to limit lore items to 1 even on corpses - unfortunately, because of the way corpses are coded, this would be exceedingly difficult and time consuming. Not worth it.
