Shocking leaked image shows spirit of compromise on p99 in A/A's absence! - Page 20

Well, after greatly enjoying my time on P99 over this last weekend I figured I better come here and read the posts. Some of you know me, others Im sure don't have a clue who the hell I am or why they should even care about my opinion, I barely come to the Forums these days since they are generally toxic and cause division in our community via the RnFs section but I've been playing toons on P99 since Dec 2009 so I thought of it as my responsibility to come and absorb this post by reading everything, then give my two cents.

This weekend was a huge success for the community, content was even given out to guilds who weren't initially involved in the split, for those who think it was just 3 guilds controlling all the content you are wrong. CSG is an alliance of 3 guilds, FoH actually repesents Venerate and Anonymous as well on that list and Rustle stands alone but somtimes brings Infernus along for the ride and Big ups to them for doing so I say!

I've been in big / top guilds and competed here, tracked mobs and poopsocked for hours on end, sure there is a thrill in downing content as soon as it pops, being there first and claiming all the pixels for your guild, I can't deny that as someone who has partaken. However I don't think any of that can outweigh just hanging out and having fun with your friends, which is what happened this weekend for everyone in the endgame community with the exemption of our banned friends. Thats right, I call alot of A / A my friends.

If you don't think what happened this weekend was in the best interest of the server and our community I'm just befuddled by that train of thought, maybe I've been on P99 too long but its the only MMOrpg I want to play and I know I'm not the only one who feels that way. In short, I really don't understand why we can't make the server a better place where people without a competition mentality can enjoy the raid scene too.

Either way, see you at ToV next weekend mates ;D

Posted this elsewhere, posting it agian, cuz i think it would be fun and cater to all sorts.

So many 'solutions'. Soooo the ultimate solution = use all the solutions !

Every 3 months <or insert arbitrary number here> the raid scene changes:

Phase 1 : Race for FTE (current rules)
Phase 2 : DPS battle, No FTE - you get xp you get the loot
Phase 3 : Fighting to mobs on spawn spot only (remember leapfroggin? classic as fuck)
Phase 4 : Full on no CSR PvP Train wars (gms get a break after the insane lawyering from 1,2&3)
Phase 5 : Rotations (gms get a another break after the insane lawyering from 1,2&3)

No need for the silly long variance we currently have either. Win win !

ps fuck mage fte, that shits dumber than the rest of the dumb shit.

Fun Sunday! Just wanted to chime in on crawling NToV. I'm sure any of the guilds that were enjoying ToV this weekend would love to crawl through north and fight the baddies, but I think that is really only practical if said force was left alone in there.

There was a lot of work put into sharing these mobs and scheduling which resulted in the need for multiple things/pulls going on at once or soon after each other. That made it necessary to train pull from what I could tell. If any one of these entities showed up to ToV on their "week" or "turn" unhindered by pressure to succeed or threats of concession I'd wager they would absolutely crawl around to the mobs and fight to each named.

Divinity itself used to crawl through ntov to kill flurries and it was really swell. Once we even got a named! But more often we would simply get trained or harassed to move because a lord or lady would pop and lust was close to satiation. I can really imagine how great it would have been to romp through there with a full spawn. I'm sure we would only succeed in killing a handful in a given raid, but it would be glorious to be sure. This of course if we could kill Aary to gain entry.

I think this is really what guilds are after. Give me some time in a zone with my elfpals without a sabre to my neck and you can go with your pals at a later time.

Getsome doing gods work. Make P99 great again.

Every guild can do ToV. The problem is only 2 guilds show up for it. You seriously cannot complain about all the spawns spawns being oligopolized when you refuse to even enter the market.

From the looks of it, that is because only 2 guilds have enough people to sacrifice their work/sleep schedules in order to track.

Sounds to me like this server needs the class system back. Maybe this Class R can truly cooperate unlike the old Class R that emulated Class C.

PS. Love Ya Halliel! <3
