There's no reason that involves 'you still get all the loot', thats true. If that's your only motivation for action then I guess you wouldn't agree to it. Now, if the server admins got involved to the point of BACKING the rotation with enforcement via temp bans, that would give you a pro reason to co-operate. I doubt that'll happen, and I'm not advocating it necessarily, but it would have an effect.

I was counting on maybe folks would just do it because there's more to the game than loot. Er..wait. Is there?

if there was more to EQ than loot, people wouldn't complain about the end game raiding i suppose.

Velious is the panacea...I mean vindi is like an 8 hour spawn right?

Although i'm not 100% against the idea, there is no "logic" behind why TMO would agree to this. If they're getting all the mobs now, why would they voluntarily offer to give up on all the loots that our toons still need? We have voluntarily given up several mobs over the last couple weeks, and will likely continue to do so because we get no significant loot off of them that we cant wait one extra week for. Trakanon / VS and others that drop epic pieces are a different story though.

When agreement was made on the rotation of Trakanon a few months ago, it was a 50/50 toss up if they would get Trak anyway, so implementing a rotation was logical. It didn't change how often we got the mob as opposed to IB, it simply made it so we didn't have to rush every time to be there.

VD a while back suggested to keep this going, and we said to "prove themselves", after that the trak spawns went something like 8 for TMO, 2 for VD... that was not a "toss up" that was a "we're likely to win most, and only miss out on a couple" so we again had no reason to agree to a rotation.

Well zeelot has said we will be letting more than one mob up in the near future. I think this is fair magnanimous considering you are still free to compete on any target you want I.e. fay, maestro etc.
Vs I can see as a free target soon, even trak too however, I doubt that will happen before we sell our bard epic MQ.


So if you want trak pool your cash and buy your fav guild bard their epic!

The answer to this thread is obviously "you don't want it enough"... the format of this server allows people with no jobs and nothing going on in real life to triumph in a little corner of the Internet. If you want raid mobs, quit your job or get fired and sit at your computer waiting for stuff to spawn. Not saying everyone is in this situation but the best guilds will be the ones with the highest amount of jobless and people that are anti-social in real life.

Yes, that's it. Having players from many different time zones and others who are willing to wake up in the middle of the night to kill things has nothing to do with it.

Can't win at decade old video game -> call those that do losers. lol.

...futility is lame.

I mean, since we *can* do a rotation, and we *can't* instance everything.

This is kinda irrelevant to OP, but..
@ TMO: I'm sure you guys are pretty bored now right considering you can just take your time to kill any targets. Most of you relish not for loot, but for competition, so why don't you guys create competition amongst yourselves. Have some kind of draft amongst your own players and split the guild up in two for a little bit and race each other. That would be funny.

While I understand that many do not like rotations, I am hoping that when Red99 finally dies they consider duplicating p99 and having forced rotations.

I understand it would be hard to police but I am sure there are some people, guild leadership maybe that would be happy to manage it and make something work.

Red99 is obviously dead. I think it is very kind of TMO to do the endangered list so that not all guilds need to give up their lives to get some dragon loot.

I would happily reroll and relocate to a forced rotation p99 server.

/dream off
