Thoughts on movement from Class C to Class R

The server has no rule regarding the class R rotation list. Your assumption of 4-5 months could be incorrect. Whose to say the guild rejoining Class R does not get back their old rotation spots?

I don't know how it would be dealt with because it's a new situation. We would probably need to call a meeting and figure it out. My best guess though is that we'd just keep the rotation the same and if that guild came up on the rotation and they were in class C they'd just get skipped for the time being.

It's cute that Phats is worried about how a class R guild could potentially game the system even though there's almost a year of history showing that the class R guilds are working in good faith. To be honest I don't think any guild will make the change in playstyle. Only Taken and BDA could even be considered a potential candidate and I don't speak for Taken but I'll tell you that BDA has no interest in altering our playstyle and/or spending significant time with IB or TMO.

Phats is only worried about where he will get his next meal.

I do not bring any animosity to this conversation. I was proposing a solution.

Please refrain from attacking me in Server Chat.

Getting back the rotation spots would be kinda unfair however I could easily see the guild trying to return to R being met with lots of venom and thusly at that point maybe saying ehhhh no rotation

this is tricky for sure, Guilds that choose to become C should be doing it because they actually want to be there n try it, not to snipe 1 extra VS/Trak or whatever then twiddle thumbs to scoot back into rotation

1 month cool down seems reasonable and can even put in something that disallows the same guild from engaging a C mob for additional 2 months after so they cannot repeat same process

Phats kind of has a point. At 30 days, if you have enough vp keys it is worth attempting PD on every spawn. Do you go C if you engage a vp mob or if you kill it?

Aweful troll is aweful:

Successfully killing a mob spawned under Class C advances that guild to Class C automatically.

I do like Erati's addendum:

This addresses Heallun's issue:

Then guilds can attempt PD until they finally get it, then when they drop back the C-guilds know they don't have to worry about that guild for 2 months (or 3 if the guild literally got the 1 kill and then stopped attempting C -trying- to get back to R).

And also specify one month = 30 days.

I would propose:
they may elect to go back to Class R after a 30 day cool off period. During the cool off period the guild may only compete on FFA mobs.

I think you meant to say you like Phat's proposal.

Class R manages class R, your proposals are irrelevant.
