Mob Camping Rules

[choster]

Lol Scavrefamn!

Your argument is "the game mechanices don't prevent it, therefor it is OK.". It is hardly a straw man argument to point out the other things that are also clearly against the stated server rules.

I get your argument, and I am 100% on board if we are playing mortal kombat at a standup arcade. I get the whole, if you aren't using every advantage, then you are playing to lose mentality. MMOs, particularly pve environs, are not the same thing. No one "wins" here.

wow.. I wish you all played on red, and that I still played on red so I could slay you all for making this a 12 page topic.

Use common sense. Don't be a douchbag. Really all the rules you need.

The end.

Why did EQ designed that corpse are private for 2+mins and then public for 5mins?

If the game is designed such that only those who killed the mob can loot the mob (some MMOs are designed this way), they would have made the corpse be only lootable to either the person who killed it, group and raid only.

But no, Verant designed the game such that the corpse can be looted by anyone after certain amount of time has passed. If they didnt planned for the game to be played this way, they wouldnt made it as such.

so that you could consensually pass no drop loot on corpses to players not in your party?

The way I see it, the alt has the same looting rights any other player has. There is nothing linking an alt to a main in-game, so technically it can be regarded as just another player.

Having said that, I don’t think it’s nice to ninja loot from an alt, but then again, I don’t think permacamping is nice as well, so if these people got ninja looted I wouldn’t feel sorry for them.

You're all p dumb to be honest.

The Raid system wasn't added until what, Luclin or something? If they had made it so that only the kill group who got XP could loot all you would be see is some pimped out wizards and rogues in classic.
