AM used to do what Riot did this week with zone line pulls, which is infinitely easier, even if more technical for the 6-10 people involved with the pull.

naww even at our most zerg, the zerg you've amassed over there is the biggest ever seen.

Maybe even in EQ overall? You guys had 140 in zone before statue was even at 4 way last pop. We're not even talking AoW yet. Were live guilds like that too? I'm not even crying about it we def in the zerg meta right now so I understand.

AM was zerging back when these dragons could be killed with 40. Suddenly Rogean and co change the code to make it so you actually need an exorbitant force and the wheels fall off at the first sign of competition.

Sorry you didn't get raid. Good luck spending all that responder dkp~

Back when AM had a zerg it wasn’t an advantage because you were bottlenecked by the fact that only two mages were allowed past the line.

Can you wrap your head around that?

I remember 80 - 120 being common on my server for the top guilds on stuff like AoW or NToV yeah, but 120 was really pushing it to the limit. And the true elite guilds like FoH or whoever would publicly look down on those kinds of numbers as zerging but for the run of the mill raid guilds the redundancy of those numbers helped make this stuff manageable.

Keep in mind the relative lack of gearing for many back then compared to here. Although I suspect there's plenty of Riot who aren't exactly decked out in NToV gear, but even the accessibility of Skyshrine stuff for rank and file players far exceeds what people could easily obtain when Velious was current.

I think the next time you post about this the count will be 150.

Not that far from pulling those numbers. Zerg has overtook zerg, don't deny the fact that you were a zerg for a long time.

This exciting bit of information and more can be found over at the Server Firsts wiki page! Pretty neat stuff there!
