I think it's great that more people are starting to recognize how successful Class R has been. The complete segregation of the two playstyles has yielded excellent results.

That said, FFA spawns should be eliminated entirely, or moved only to repops. The goal of the system should be segregation, and any bleed over is inappropriate. As a weekday warrior, I also hate the weekend repops, but it is what it is. I think Class C ONLY, having proven the effort it is willing to put forth, should see the old variance with extended windows, but I've ridden that horse for a long time. Extended variances keep the game rolling for all hours and all players, and prevents the 36 hour adderall spam session.

I was referring to your 70/30 quote, but if you are willing to consider some repop action so much the better.

I would kind of like to see some discussion in Officer RNF, but I very much doubt anything will come of it. No one will consider anything that reduces their pixels (and that is true for both C and R).

What exactly is the argument against everything (VP included to those with means) being Rotated?

Rotate all mobs, evenly and fairly.

Why do these guilds get special treatment?

Their imaginary things wouldn't be special to them if everyone had them.

A decision was made by the server operators that guilds willing to devote more time to the game should be commensurately rewarded. They felt that this created a more classic environment for the server. However, they also have recognized that some servers did have rotations and other protected raiding environments, albeit in a minority, so they have also taken measures to protect and promote both environments despite their incompatibility. Two servers in one, essentially.

You give the Class C guilds their mobs, or they will take everything for themselves.

It's a lot like the mafia. You pay 'insurance' so you have the privilege of not getting your shit pushed in.

The Class R guilds 'pay' the Class C guilds with VP so they can have the privilege of having random dragon world spawns

Please no on 96 hour windows again.

We just need a patch to get mob respawns off of the weekends so I can go back to getting hilariously drunk and watching football.

Something def needs to be done to spread out the dragon spawns at the very least, only weekend spawns is getting old. The socking is also to much currently timers need to be extended. It's not that hard to have 1 tracker rotate with a bunch of other guildies.

That's why i said to make it so all FFA mobs spawn simultaneously. Then unless someone really really really wants to fight over some choice mob it won't be an issue.
