1. I am not saying I am better than TMO, nor am I saying that they are bad at raiding. Clearly they are are very effective. I am saying that what you guys do is not hard. EQ in general is not hard. 2. I am not saying TMO is holding me back. I am saying that my unwillingness to track and join huge guilds is holding me back. I have only stated about 300 times in this thread that I hate the system, not the players. 3. Unlike you, I don't have a fucking ego regarding this game. When I die they will not put 'he played everyquest well on 1999' on my tombstone because I have a lot of other accomplishments to my name. The solo artist challenge is just something I do for fun. What you are doing is called projection, and your massive insecurity complex is on display. So STFU unless you have something useful to contribute about fixing the raid scene, which in this very thread nilbog described as trash.

Velious is the answer, and removing variance when velious comes out. Always has been, always will be.

52 pages later and I think all anyone really did was validate what was said in the OP.
At any rate, the end game of classic EQ was very weak, being based on getting to mobs before others, certainly not on the difficulty of actually killing them. Changes made with variance, FTE shouts and all that might give more people that chance to be there first (which is what people have been going on about for however many pages). Hey, that's great for them and I hope they enjoy it. It still is what it is though, you win by hoping you get there first, which is a pretty goofy game. Of course, it was the first of its kind really and "endgame raiding" in MMOs has gone through a lot of changes since then. There's a lot of things to like about classic EQ, but this would be one of the failed systems. I don't think there's a single person that would say it's fun being woken up at 3:15 am on the batphone to login for the Trak kill. It's 100% just for the loot and that's it. If they could just lean over in bed after getting that call and press 1 button on their computer so they could go back to sleep, and somehow that got them the loot anyway, they'd do it. Kinda like some pvp mechanics in EQ such as re-mezing someone over and over until you get bored which led to "diminishing returns" and various similar mechanics in future games. There's a lot of fun to be had in twinking alts on p99 though. Just appreciate the game for what it is. | ||

Variance causes all of this. I don't think people would mind competing for FTE if we knew exactly when a target would spawn. It'd just be show up, zerg mob, log off. Hardly any time investment in raiding, no need for many multiples of alts, etc. But instead we wake up at the asscrack of dawn to raid shit cuz it decided to spawn 3 extended windows in. K.

The big problem is that TMO, FE are just raiding the shit out of top mobs to equip there 4th or 5th alt now. And to sell shit for silly ass prices in the tunnel. While the lesser guilds have their main sucking hind tit. That's what pisses people off.
I have no clue what the answer is other than TMO and FE just take a vacation for a month or two. I mean how much shit do you really need??[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.][You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||
