I mean yeah this dude is way over immersed and acting like an ass, but there's no denying these are legit bugs by now and the restart feels overdue. I'd imagine the petition queue isn't helped much by the missing groundspawns issue as well.

We do not have the ability to immediately summon items that were lost due to a failed turn in. This must go through the item reimbursement process which, unfortunately, will take awhile. A lot of the time it can be quicker to simply redo the quest so make sure you research your Epic quest before turning things in!

this Ragefire situation is pretty embarrassing. The staff should be ashamed to roll out epics and skip spawning the Zordak for the first week, negating 3 potential cleric epics week 1. Right now there is a mandated 16 hour window on Zordak triggered 24 hours after nagafen is killed for the 20 or so clerics that lasted the whole time without taking a break to have a chance to win a /random 1000 that can only be rolled within 20 seconds of the mob spawning. What is the point of the 16 hour window? It would make sense if there was a race involved for the turn in. There is not. This mob should not have a huge variance. Please reduce variance to Noble Djorn like +/- 5 minutes or none. This would be in the best interest for everyone involved.

It's triggered off of Nagafen's death. Cleric epic is the most important epic in the game. There was ~3 years of Kunark with epics on blue server until Velious came out. Don't be upset that every cleric can't get their epic week 1. No one is forcing you to sock. The roll system is better than losing to people autofiring turnins.

Zord just died again, allegedly the second time within 12-24 hours .... is this classic?

No. During blue epic release a few clerics cried hard and submitted out of era respawn timers for zordak. The respawn timer being used is one that was implemented after the Feb 13, 2002 patch.

You're right. You should ask for a subscription refund right now.

if you show up for the 16 hour window for 3 times a week: potential 48 hours of life wasted per week for 3x20 second windows to lose a /ran 1000. Imagine being one of the unlucky clerics who wasted 200 hours a month staring at a screen in hopes to win a random roll and just couldn't get it done. No other epic is set up for this much suffering.

Hello sir, I would like to introduce you to the enchanter epic:

2 day spawn that is a dice roll pet/autofire spam if contested
3 day spawn in fear that you have to rely on a bard to fte for you due to race rules
2-4 day spawn where you can sit on top of spawn - dice roll pet/autofire fte
2-7 day spawn where you can sit on top of spawn - dice roll pet/autofire fte
3 24 hour ground spawns that anyone can walk up to and spam click/pray

I promise others out there are suffering [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
