Tldr: to rogean and devs, even though you have already put much time and effort into this issue and have no real incentive or reason to put more time or effort into this issue, put more time and effort into the issue and maybe we can complain about that and ask for more changes later.

thanks for the contribution!

You could try a hybrid of the current system and simulated repops.
My idea would be to group certain bosses to the same spawn timer, for example make it so both Trak and VS spawn at the same time every time, with the varied spawn time reset each time either was killed.

This would probably work better with the 7 day spawns, for example having PD, Talendor, Inny, and Vox all spawn at the same time would still allow for competition which favors the better guild, but also allows others to get some spawns. Also it could allow for some amount of timer trolling if people forgot to kill Vox (or Yael) for a few days.
It would be a less sweeping change than full repops only, and also serve as a test to see if full repops would be the better route.

I can't pretend to know whether or not this is even possible to code, but it seems like a good idea.
Any real number/combination of mobs would probably work, although I'd think at least one of the groups should be solely VP dragons.

why not just play nice

Hey it's this thread again. Great idea tbh, not gonna happen. Variance was put in, a non-classic feature, into a strictly classic server for a specific reason. This reason will just RnF this thread up, but it's well known and we should just accept and move on.

Stop theoryquesting, use your efforts to get Nilbog Velimus info so that can launch correctly, and asap. THAT'S your best bet at getting some Kubark raids

This post made me laugh hard.

Sir, your misspellings remind me of a coke-bottled glasses nerd literally screaming at his computer screen shooting spittle everywhere.

Good job sir.

Simulated repop isn't classic. Not a fan.

Frequent patches with repops is classic as hell.

I think simulated patch days would raise the number of items out there and lower their RMT values. Every spawn does this, so extending the window 3 or 4 times is also good for the RMT market. Wearing down other guilds, so that only one guild can get all of the loots is also good for RMT as well.

Almost everything, easily 90%+. one guild gets is awarded to members you tinfoil hat wearing moran. The rest of the gear is banked, publicly recorded and accounted for.

It was a joke. Then again, I'm explaining this to somebody who can't even spell "moron."
