#facts
Oh yea that makes sense didn't think of that. I'd DEFINITELY sit there afk at the raceline for free dkp if I was in a dkp guild. Kinda fucking dumb that leadership is willing to screw over the rest of the server for 10 leechers to get dkp though.

Whatever. I guess as a BDA member I should be happy cause the current system will 100% result in A/A burnout before too long.

They got 2 that they actually had competition on. They killed Statue/AoW with another guilds help. The Ikatiar they didn't kill. Yeah they are really doing well.

Forum bots always make sense....They are using a script that someone has pre-written and been reviewed for thousands of users. You are right about one thing though, I won't take the time to dissect every sentence someone says like you do (This doesn't make you any less annoying or right). You're one of those guys that takes anything anyone says literal even if that wasn't the purpose. I guarantee you if I did a live feed and asked you several mechanic questions on EQ, you wouldn't be able to answer them. Now I bet you if I ask someone on the higher scale of A/A, they would have no problem.

Let me break this down for you. If anyone and everyone can do what they are doing and it doesn't take time to learn mechanics to give you an advantage, then how come the same guilds get the same mobs every run? How come sometimes guild A (who has 40 people logged in) vs guild B (who has 100 people logged in) but the lesser still gets the kill?

If you think there isn't any mechanic knowledge let me pop quiz you on live stream, if you won't do that....then shut the fuck up.
Wow. This is some grade A delusional ego right here. Someone needs to get out from behind their keyboard more. I mean you seriously, unironically believe that the reason A/A win almost everything is because they know the mechanics of the mob better. Seriously, I am literally laughing out loud at you right now.

Hate to be the one to tell you this, kiddo, but raiding in EQ aint hard. Most of us have done these encounters before your daddy ever let you touch his computer. What is "hard" is getting past the level of bullshit that you, as a neckbeard, cant even see.

But hey I am all for pretending that you are right! It's just those "difficult mechanics" (of door opening?) and knowledge thereof that are really separating the guilds. This would completely translate to the same overwhelming success with just one or two racers and low variance. Sounds like A/A would have nothing to worry about! Lets do it, Sirken, let this neckbeard prove his arrogance and lets see if the outcome is the same dominance when the advantage of number of tracking and fteing neckbeards is taken away.

Lol. EQ raids hard. That is a good one.

I mean, if I were in their position I prolly wouldn't want to limit it either. The QQing from the "not good enough FTErs" would be massive. The problem started when the dkp was super inflated from the get-go, then just turns into issues like this. Is what it is I guess.

What did that lower A/A's rate to? 99%? One of which needed a miracle rng hit as well?

Oh yeah. It was actually "mechanics" the rest of the time. Lolol

Too many people bitching. Play the damn game. Fun is yours to have. If you are having a bad time, that is your choice. Cut it out.

I think we can all agree Mistle and JCR are idiots in the thread at least.

Says the guy claiming Crown of Rile's intended use was spamming it to win FTE races for Velious dragons and that you need to farm multiple crowns to "progress correctly" into Velious. Still waiting on that 1 person that agrees with your totally legitimate argument.

And remember this is all happening because CSG complained enough about training being involved in the pull tactics, even to go as far as standing in the way of the pull to intentionally get trained and prove a point. All for some holier than thou stand against mobs being trained to pull dragons, when 99.99% of the time there is no reasonable explanation to be in that pull path.

If you guys just sacked up and figured out the mage spots and pull techniques you would actually have a better chance/more fun.

You can do this during your prime time on weekends the same way you talk about only foot racing during those times.

Shit, I'll even show you guys where to plant the mages and how to FTE. It can all be done with classes that can bind themselves at west exit so there is no need to drop thousands of plat of locket charges.

Still haven't seen you guys at Yelinak or Zlandicar.

PS: Nobody coth ducks.

It's ridiculous to think that a crown of rile is a necessary item to progress, but I think banning their usage is even more absurd.
