This is P1999 raiding. You sit for many hours. Many many hours. Probably AFK. Receive text message at 5am. Wake up. Get to character. Get a 100% no fail kill that's very very easy. Get Loot. There is 0 skill. 100% commitment. I mean, at least vanilla WoW 40 man 1.0 raids were difficult. | ||

I wonder why "poopsocking" emerged as the term of choice for P1999 camping...

Raids were the only thing more challenging in WoW, comparing classic to classic. And that's because raiding wasn't even really thought about in EQ classic.

Just as an aside, I can't stand raiding in WoW anymore. Not everyone cares enough about repair bills or corpse runs to actually pay full attention and there were always one or two people you could count on to wipe a raid.
My raiding in EQ was really limited to pre-Kunark. There was a lot of time spent waiting and strategizing, etc, and a lot of dying. But everyone was 100% committed and playing their butts off. I'd just like to add I raided on Tallon Zek on the dark team, which meant no bards, paladins, or druids. It was a different kind of accomplishment for us back then. | ||

A WOW raid is similar to you having to walk into the kitchen to get a cookie.
A EQ raid is similar to you having to fly to the other side of the world, swim 5 miles to an island, and then sell your body until you can afford that cookie.
