FYI, player rotation agreements of just 2 parties only applies to those 2. Any other entity would be able to race for Dain even though Riot / AM would agree to rotate, so it wouldn;t work.

As I said, kittens consspiracy to get meow dains.

Just popped in for pointing out this is an AG plot to deny Riot and AM of Dain pixels.

AG = Kittens is the real conspiracy

Why would AM get a spot in a two-slot rotation over whatever entity is actually in the number two slot now?

Any group of 40 lvl 60s with enough clerics and a competent raid leader can kill virtually every mob in the game.

Theres no such things as guilds not “capable” of killing high end stuff.

Its just they have jobs/wives/lifes outside of eq that’s the only difference.

You would still have to sit at your computer for a 16 hr window just to hand this in. Even with a 15 min grace period your still wasting your entire day.

Either way if you guys make this happen, I would be a happy man. This is a good thing for the server whether either guild likes it or not, and thats what i am interested in.

PS. an easy solution to this is just to hand in items like this and doze quests on repops like i do rather then tracking. I understand this requires being in a guild that batphones repops but still, its a million times easier if you are just patient and dont need it RIGHT away.

It's my ring 9 and I need it now!

I'd rather another npc for the turn in. FTE with free hour is terrible.

I like the ghost idea.

Ghost of Yelinak, Ghost of Tormax, Ghost of Dain.

This isn't true Fifield, with the amount of people that have access to a batphone, or a friend who can message them on discord, all they need to do is be able to log on for a minute to do the hand in. Or they can play on other toons and have plenty of time to log over once they get notice he has popped. I also agree it is easier on quakes but those are happening like every 5-6 weeks and are totally random luck if you are around when it happens, you can't plan for or count on that.

I agree another turn NPC woud be absolutely ideal, I just don't know how to even get the ball rolling with the people who could make this change, or if they would be remotely amenable to it. If you have any way to float that idea to the right people that would be fantastic. Also, nobody said a free hour, the proposed idea was 15 minutes but that was just an arbitrary starting point that seemed like a good compromise for not leaving him up too long but still giving people time to log in and finish their quests.

This really is a fantastic idea and I would love to see it implemented. The reason I didn't include this idea in my OP is I don't have any ability to reach out to the people who could make this change, aside from randomly PMing them here. Again, if anyone has more direct contact with them and could pass this idea along, that would be awesome.

And as always, thanks to everyone for the feedback here!
