Lron probably saw this coming from the start and had the right idea all along.

I explained them to my old EQ guildies who I've been playing Archeage with and their reaction was "wait, people used to sit at Trak spawn for a week clicking javelins? What the fuck is up with your server? Yes, that rotation sounds like exactly what you need"


so SHUT UP LRON

A few facts:

There were rotations in classic.

Vast majority of people saw the rotation as an improvement of the previous system.

Vast majority of people don't hold raiding as their only priority in playing here and accept that any raiding system will be inevitably flawed.

Raiding is only one aspect of the game, and most people with "responsibilities" that you speak of accept that this will be a compromise and aren't trying to relive being 13-years-old.

It's a free, private server. Nobody is forcing you to stay here if you hate it this much.

saying vast majority and attributing it to a fact is just asking for trouble.


also rotations on live were built around smaller populations because everquest had way more servers to distribute their population. This is one server where EVERYONE has to be submitted to a rotation.

Its obvious that the majority doesn't raid as hard as the most geared people here. But there has to obviously be a path to being able to do so for everyone. Given what the proposal says it makes it difficult to do with a new guild that has intentions to raid.

we all know this is emu, it doesnt mean we need to like whats established. If anything it should be alot more player driven and managed than live.

i know you guys have a failing player run rotation for class R, but thats not at all what this is about.

GM-enforced rotation would work fine, and as mentioned, is CLASSIC (on select servers) Anyone who isnt a 13 year old can understand that the compromise would be not being able to gear up your 7th character with best in slot gear as quickly. We have been in kunark for 4 years, there is no rush.

Life was better under your TMO overlords. If you lay down your weapons and come home to your rightful master, we will bear you no malice. You will be allowed to farm platinum in the mines of Sebilis and Chardok. Refuse and continue your insurrection at your own peril. None shall be spared.

You have until Velious to reply.

The average server on Live had at least 2,500 people, so no.
