This is to prevent afk poopsock noobs from getting FTE... instead you must be at your PC and attacking the mob / using a single target spell to engage the mob. This causes you to have to WORK for the FTE instead of just getting lucky.

The endgame on this server has evolved due to lack of content. The only reason this is even an issue is because there are SO MANY level 60's ready for endgame because the server is over 15 months over due for Velious.

15 Months ago... how many people were level 60 that are QQing about endgame raiding now?

Exactly.

Same number, if not more, because there were 2 more raid guilds on the server. The endgame on this server hasn't 'evolved' from lack of content, it's devolved into childish bullshit because endgame guild leaders are too fucking immature to work out a way for everyone to be able to enjoy themselves.

You can say that a million fucking times and the problem will still be lack of content.

Let's say, just for the sake of argument, that this server has five guilds capable of killing 90% of the boss mobs. If we divide them all evenly, that means each guild has about two hours of raiding a week, assuming they get lost a few times and wipe a couple times.

The pie isn't very big. Cutting it into smaller slices isn't going to make the hungry people much happier, there are just going to be more hungry people. No server had this many level 60s who wanted to raid on live.

The problem isn't that everyone (except you of course) is an asshole. There is competition for scarce resources and it can get unpleasant.

SoE/Verant hated banning paying customers over simple griefing though unless it was excessive. So to make it like live, training is legal so long as you donate at minimum 14.99 a month.

This is basically correct, but I don't think Velious will fix it. A big part of the problem with this server is the lack of progression. The tortoises have caught up to the hares basically.

Yep, you should work for FTE. As in, sit at a mob spawnpoint and hit a hotkey for hours. Or autofire with a fancy keyboard, whichever right?

Oh gawd forbid you do something besides raiding in your free game.

Fuck off.
