The problem is that the value of the reward is greatly diminished when it can be achieved by just signing up for a rotation. Why are real life collectobles valuable? Generally because they are rare and hard to obtain. Taking away the hard to obtain and rareness diminishes the value of the reward in this case.

Oh no, your special pixels will be diminished

The value of the rewards in this case are going to be diminished to some capacity to accomodate everyone but the further we travel down this slippery sloap the closer we get to bringing full kunark gear in line with full planar. I dont have any of these shiny pixels myself but it reduces the desire to collect rare pixels when they arent rare any more.

Yeah signing up for the rotation and being one of the 8 or 9 guilds dividing the tier 2 stuff it's so much better odds than the one two split in tier one. Math pro right here.

I fail to see where tiers are fixed?

The tiers reflect guilds that want to compete in VP and those who don't/can't which is a delineation in playstyle as well. Class C is full on FFA, and Class R isn't.

Which is why these psuedo number analyses are bullshit when they dont consider things like future number of guilds in each tier and who is actually interested in competing for ffa mobs.

I personally dont think the plan as a whole is all that bad but the bull shit number analysis needs to stop. This is not a 33/66 proposal.

Why isn't BDA starting in Class-C, after all Rogean did point out that a VP kill would make a guild class-C. How many VP kills does BDA have? Odd you call out FE on their VP kills, but yet you fail to mention yours. Why would BDA not be Tier 1 to start? Just because of your raid style? Hypocrit.

"Relive the classic Everquest MMORPG Gaming Experience as it was in 1999 and onward. Project 1999 is a free to play Emulated Everquest Server giving Players the opportunity to experience Classic EQ Once again, currently in the Kunark expansion and a max level of 60, with the look and feel of the old interface and several modifications making game mechanics similar to how the game used to be. Project 1999 is the best and most popular classic Everquest experience."

Emulated server not original which makes all in game pixels pretty much Picasso reproductions which we all know IRL aren't worth crap compared to the originals.
