No it wouldnt. There would be a rotation so the same shit doesnt happen. Notice how all the guilds in Class R get along or atleast act like they get along enough to have a rational raid scene.

Nobody would go outside the of the raid rotation? What's stopping people from moving over to the new server with this exact intention? Nobody on the server is going to take advantage of monsters that are currently up?

Because the whole point is it would be GM enforced. If you went outside the rotation, then you get suspended. People wouldn't do it.

Because on the new server a rotation would be enforced. That is the whole point of a new server which you obviously are missing.

If those 2 guilds wanted to, they could just go by the server rules and use the 3-kill lockout for R-mobs and screw over the little guilds. But they don't.

I don't understand what the point of a new server would be if they allowed character moves. The fresh server feels would be completely ruined.

It's not supposed to be a fresh server.

If this option isn't available (which I'm almost positive it is not)...

Zero Variance
Hard limit on number of players in zone when mob spawns (let's say 3)
Keep no FTE with trackers rule
Foot Race start points and SoW only
Class Restriction extended to be 12-24 hours (as opposed to current 6), to facilitate the spreading of raid targets since Class R will inevitably take longer to kill theirs.
Full FFA on repops

Gonna quote one of my posts from last week.

Maybe one day, to be competitive on FFA mobs, you don't need to have a force that can show up at any time between 2AM-6PM, along with several trackers and FTEers in zone the entire 16 hour window.

Maybe one day, to be competitive you can note the time, send your tracker and FTEers out 30minutes before he spawns and have your guild camp out an hour in advance. Then you may race for and compete for a mob, without spending 16 hours camped out and constantly staring at a wall.


Surely there will always be 2AM mob spawns, and surely the Class C guilds will dominate those. But I have a dream my fellow 15-year old dragon pixel elf simulators. That one day, a guild's competitiveness will not be judged by their ability to field a force 24 hours a day. But will be judged by the content of their character's ability to race and do more will less. To pick and choose their battles and be able to put up a fight without staring at a wall for 16 hours.

Amen.

Not sure what people don't get about wanting to play a game and not have to worry about some dbag coming up behind me and killing me. You want PvP competition go play a MOBA or something.
