Insanity :10 hours per manastone, there's like 12 people on the list now

[ilgart112]

maybe you guys should start your own server and make manastones drop from spirocs in the karanas see how many people play on your server.

There's 2-3 people with 50+ hours on the current list so far. This is getting to the point where it can't be done by a single person without health risks.

The only way to do it right now is to pass off your character between RL people in shifts.


If that's what was intended, I'd be surprised.

an online game that requires friends to win, what a terrible concept

You're suggesting tag teaming the same character so that you can sleep for 4 hours to continue a 70 hour marathon is reasonable?

Dude, what is your deal? Like I can't make out why you're so zealous in defending the list system. You're not in Guk right now on the list. Have you tried this system yet?

You are exceedingly full of wisdom today.

They could have made it a random drop off any mob in LGUK, but In the end we can't underestimate the lengths some.... wizards will go to obtain an E-peen item from their misspent youth. I tip my fedora to these gentlemen and will pour out a white Monster in their honor tonight before making love to my wife.

Ok, boomer.

I'm for the system because nobody is entitled to anything. EQ is supposed to be brutal, you deserve nothing. go earn it if you cant get over it. 99% of the pop WONT GET A MANASTONE. YOU DESERVE NOTHING. THIS IS WHAT MAKES EQ GREAT

Brutal does not automatically mean better.

If your character got randomly deleted and you had to start over now, that'd be pretty brutal, but is it better?

The game is typically very punishing for mistakes, and that's good. Some camps can be extremely time intensive, like pained soul, which is also good.

This is another level entirely. 70+ hours of no real AFK's. No shower, no cooking, no going outside. The only way to do this without health risk is to allow someone else to play your character while you do these things or sleep. That's brutal, but it is not better.

I've seen two people lose the #1 spot with 50+ hours invested, one due to a technical bug, and one because the person passed out on their desk and all the caffeine in the world couldn't save them. This isn't normal dude.
