Multi questing still going strong... so says the economy?

[Kratzy]

MQ does have its proper and sometimes profitable uses. I too have been in groups that claim NBG is guild groups only (thats BS!) And just for any dummy who might read this and think they know better NEED BEFORE GREED DID NOT START IN World of Warcraft.......

If you are in a group and something drops that can make your group stronger right then and there, then you should make that intelligent choice. This is a social game, you make friends by being helpful and kind.

I am sick and tired of seeing the same people camping the same camp and selling the MQ. You might know who you are. After 4 or 5 sales of the same MQ how bout you just give it up for a month and figure out a different way to make the pp you obviously dont need.

If you long timers want this server to gain players you need to stop camping all the best gear to be sold to other long timers with multiple k pp in the bank. Us fresh starts have to gear up someway and I'm not going to be buying any MQ, so I'll be happy as can be when I don't see it anymore.

this is why you rarely find me in a PUG, its kind of a douche move imo to try to roll on a quest item if someone in the group ACTUALLY needs. but the only cases i can even think this might be relevant would be the monk epic pipes and possibly rogue epic mqs. outside of that tho nbg is dumb, i would laugh at someone calling need on a heiro cloak or fungi tunic in a PUG.

So just because a character can use that item RIGHT NOW instead of someone who can go make the plat doing the MQ then getting there item in EC somehow takes priority because someone wants instant gratification over someone who can go MQ then can the item THEY NEED. once again I don't see the distinction seems like a bunch of whining.

Join a good guild and only group with your guildmates that way you know it will be NBG in your group, otherwise discuss it prior to killing shit and if your group dont wanna NBG then leave.

People hunt in zones where they usually know gear they can use drops. I'm sorry that you are unable to comprehend kindness and community.

Taking an item to sell to maybe buy something you want, rather than just go hunt down what you want seems counter intuitive. How many days/weeks does it take to wait for someone to hunt what you want so you can buy it, rather than just hunt it yourself for what you actually want?

It depends what you want to buy I guess. It's a lot easier to get some money and go buy an item than camp it in most cases. Otherwise people would never buy anything, they would just go camp it themselves.

money camps like seb cannot be NBG, otherwise there would be no non melees camping certain camps... also casters get shafted on NBG because many items that are worth a lot of money that a caster may need can be needed by most classes, obvious example here being a hierophant's cloak.

also who draws the distinction of who NEEDS something? lets say a RBG drops in seb, and a caster would get a stat upgrade from it and decides he/she deserves to need it. The melees in the NBG group would be furious because of the haste on it, but if it is an upgrade can they still need it?

This is why NBG is nonexistant outside of guild groups, if you want the item so bad offer the winner of the roll plat for it.

So, you have no casters that you've been nice enough to, that they want to join you in a camp for gear you can use and experience of the fun of grouping with you? So sad.

I have camped frenzy... as an enchanter, and I don't expect to get an FBSS. I have camped Cloaked Dhampyre, and not expected to get a HBC. I play for fun and to get higher level, anything you can camp, can drop loot. You get better groups when people have better gear, people have better gear when they don't have to stop and camp pp to buy something. This is EverQUEST after all.

I am not in a guild, and don't expect to be treated as less qualified for gear upgrades because I am un-guilded.
