So when does this years version start seeing as Thanksgiving is tomorrow?

There is no viable competition this year. So need to halt drama, or worry about long trak pooopsocks.

I was told 24 hr window yest?

No boss has a "24 hour window".

Trakanon has a +-18 hour window for a total of 36 hours in which he shows up.

Draco, Maestro have +-24 hour windows for a total of 48 hours in which they may appear.

CT, Inny, Fay, Gore, Tal, Sev, VS, Nagafen, Vox, VP dragons, each have a +-48 hour window for a total of 96 hours or 4 days in which they could spawn at a random time.

I am more curious as to why the GM's would allow such Monopoly? One would think that would drive away players.

I think that is probably why they are looking into upping timers and getting Velious out.

Sweet young innocent Nneave, i am glad your time here thus far has been enjoyable and hope that you continue to be void of the darkness that this server looms.

However, the 24hr window is correct for only a few mini-bosses one of which you showed interest for your main tank... being Maestro. Yet, it is 24 hours on each side of the spawn.

This mob is generally obtainable if you put the time in despite almost every other guild wanting him. The rate of spawn seems to have been enough to allow multiple guilds to acquire him at differing times.

If the discussed raid changes in the thread posted by Rogean ever occur there won't be much need for this conversation as there should be much more to go around even prior to velious.

Ok, well I am not ranting, just asking a question [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I have not formed any opinions of my own towards TMO, they have been kind to me in game.

Threads started with the best of intentions usually end up there once the dog pile begins.

Don't let the forum spoil your in-game experience. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

'Competition' for me in EQ is when 2 or more guilds are racing to engage a target. The most enjoyment I get out of EQ is evaluating each guilds forces as they enter a zone and engaging as soon as possible. If a guild goes too early they chance wiping and too late they chance losing to the opposition. This sort of race is not always how it goes, but when it does happen this way EQ is the most fun for me. I see no reason to make a rotation and take away from the chance to get that kind of experience. I understand the negative aspects of 'competition' such as socking, sniping, training, etc, but it is not like I enjoy that part of it. However, the feeling of a good race every once in awhile outweighs all the grief.

Come on Elethia, don't put it that way, just looking for a bit of fun on the day before vacation!!

I still haven't heard anyone explain why NOBODY is willing to stand up to TMO, why everyone just lets them get away with these bullshit politics and bullying.

The GMs have already stated they would not enforce any rotations, and it would need to come from the players to self enforce any kind of rotation system that may occur.
