I've been camping LCY for a couple days in KC... haven't seen a tranquil staff drop yet, but got into a discussion today with a ranger in the group. He said that everyone gets to roll on the T staff if it drops because it's 30k for any class. That's great for him, but my 51 monk is my main and that's who I was playing. If the T staff would have dropped I was going to grab it and never look back, whether people roll or not.

Now, this seems to me like that's what should happen. 6 players in the group and only 1 monk, using an imbued fighters staff. The T staff is an upgrade for the monk. What are the server rules in this situation? I don't want to just ninja the T staff but I definately don't think that other group members have the same rights to it as I do. Ideas?

Thats hella fucking greedy of you imo, you think 5 other people want to waste hours of their RL time just for you? hayll naw. If you're a guildy, maybe. But imo GREED that shit!

Your monk doesn't actually need the Tstaff. You can play without it.

My God, someone actually telling it like it is.

I dont know where all these kiddies got the idea that NBG was "the way" on Live, because it wasn't. I started on Rallos in December 99, and post-Kunark there was never a NBG rule in any PuG I joined, ever.

NBG was restricted to inter-Guild groups.

These people that are claiming they know what Live was like didn't actually play, or can't differentiate from their past PuGs / Friend groups. The time from initial launch up to Kunark was all the time that was needed to destroy the foundations of NBG to the point of never seeing a NBG PuG group again until I quit EQ.

More importantly: The BIGGEST QUESTION of this thread has remained unanswered for 18 pages now.

Does ANYONE know the OP's MAIN? PLS SHARE!

This is my 2 cents.

In the few several months of the server and/or expansions, when everything is new and nobody has good/great gear, it should be NBG. But after a year or so of the server and/or expansion comes out, when everyone and his mom has a twinked up alt, it no longer goes NBG. It's not a P99 thing, it's an MMORPG thing. Although I support NBG, I totally understand how at this stage in the game, everyone should roll on a Tstaff.

[Autotune]

never NBG on P99 unless you are grouped with friends/guildmembers.

Literally the most retarded thing you can do. A T-Staff = upgrade for every member of a group, regardless of what class they are.

Only people that like NBG are greedy people who only group for places they can call NBG and get upgrades at.

[koros]

I really don't even begin to get the argument for NBG or why anyone thinks this is more fair...

In the long run, if you random every item that drops you'll get closer to 1/nth of the loot/cash value of the items you've been around for, where n is the average number of people in your groups.

It's a standard normal distribution, and it's by far the most "fair" way to do things.

Gonna have to disagree with some friends here. I will always NBG but then again I don't play this game hoping someone will inspect me in the EC tunnel. I am always some type of caster so yea I know I wont be rolling on much but at the same time casters are capable of farming pp and gear solo. not many camps a warrior can do on his own. of course taking in other factors other than NEEDZ plat will be ignored so i guess I shouldnt bother.

edit: just a quick edit, it doesnt help that melees such as this monk are completely gear dependent. casters on the other hand are not. besides more mana, most caster gear doesnt make you more efficient/effective than being naked.
