A raid scene controlled by multiple Neckbeard guilds

OR

A raid scene controlled by 1 Neckbeard guild, cause not enough population for more guilds.

Naggy/Vox have desire among high end players because of the loot exclusive to them. Namely Bladestoppers, Rez Sticks and Prayers of Life (lol Gore). The former are more or less required for certain FFA engages due to how quickly they engage.

My only live raid memory was a pub vox raid where tons of people just braveheart rushed her and rolled on loot.
I totally agree with having pubs on this. I remember getting my warrior to level 50 and doing my first Vox raid with a bunch of random people. Was one of the best times I ever had playing EQ.

GMs should just post this week's Nagafen spawn time, we start a thread for open Naggy raid and Sirken arrives to death touch + 1 week suspension starting May 30th to any guild contesting this Nagafen.

Do it Sirken. Do it.

Perhaps my favorite memory on live was leading a (rotated) Vox raid. Died a bunch, barely even got to see Vox myself, and didn't get a single piece of loot, but I still had a blast.

It just comes down to priorities.

Hundreds of low-level players wanting to have the classic EverQuest experience of fighting a dragon?
Not a priority.

Ensuring that the raid field is "competitive" and that loot isn't "given away" by a rotation system (ie. ensuring that Tiggles and company can get their 500th Bladestopper)?
Priority. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Vox / Naggy are basically two group+stragglers encounters - Omni's first ever Naggy was late night with 13 toons. Vox much the same. Have lots of MR, Null pots, and a bard. Get everyone on one Mumble. Clear to and into the lair, make sure people understand push and kill her. Is it that hard to organize?

If you want to kill a dragon, do some prep, line up your crew, plant a tracker, and give 'er on a Class R pop. Hell depending on who might be up to kill her, they might even stand down or help you clear.

Next R Lady Vox spawn window starts 2015-04-20 10:35 and ends 2015-04-21 02:35 EDT. BDA and Div locked out, Taken and Gimpatron will no doubt contest it, perhaps they'll agree to stand down for an hour to give you an uncontested shot before firing the batphones if you've put some effort in. Naggy is FFA 2015-04-19 16:00 - 2015-04-20 08:00 so you may see more players but again, ask.

Get organizing. If you can't do that, stop complaining and app a guild, they're actually putting the work in to get these mobs!

Regards,
Mg

The unclassicness of this post is pathetic.
