We need another "Monopolizing Scout in WW" thread

[Mytral]

Actually the exact opposite. My ranger has two bracers and my cleric has talisman. I've also helped quite a few other people (in guild and out) win broken disks. Some of them buy rolling, some of them winning the clickfest.

Just recently I won the clickfest but honored the /random 1000 that occurred just prior. It wasn't even a guild member. Not only did I help with the kill, I camped and locked the corpse while that person could switch toons to loot.

You know why? Because it is the decent thing to do on an 18 year old game.

It has absolutely nothing to do with "losing". It's about calling BS when you see it.

And it's thick in WW. At least when the named players show up.

Serious question, then why are you still competing for it? It sounds like it's such a shit show because people that don't need it show up every spawn.

Personally, I'll wait till Velious has been out another few years before I try it. False hope makes me think people that don't need it and people that have won 20+ turn in (wtf?) will get bored by then, but I'm sure they wont.

Good question! I've actually asked myself that same thing! I got my first bracer when Velious was about 6 months old. It was such a shit show, I said I would just walk away and check back much much later. Fast forward to a two year old Velious, and things were much more tame (with exceptions). Rumor of civility and comradeship were abundant. I went back hoping for a different scene, and for the most part it was. People talked with one another, people helped one another. It was amazing! So I decided to settle in and try for a second bracer and hopefully a talisman.

After getting those last two disks, it seemed rude just to bail on others who needed it. I could use it on my shaman, but since I dont raid on that toon its not nearly as desired as the other two toons. I thought it prudent to help those who had helped me, and since I had timers down and had learned some of the "secrets" it made sense to continue on, just not as vigorously as before.

I hope they never change it so you are still salty months from now.

Get good noob.

Why not blame the people that pay for the gear loot? You can play this game two ways, one way is to let everyone else do everything for you, the other way is to enjoy the game at a pace you can set.

There's no other way to get it with the click spam clusterfuck going on

I like the idea of people rolling, everyone helps kill it, and the winner of the roll loots up. It promotes unity and all that hippie crap.

The only reason to be against it is if you have an unfair advantage on the clicking, and since the same people win it over and over, it's obviously being done for plat

[Kaedain]

So long as there's people willing to pay 20-40k for the rights it'll remain

You don't often see guilds jump to an A/A/R-level of villainy so quickly. Bravo, Savage.

Llaile posting about being a good player is hilarious as he's not even the guy in savage that does the turn ins. Coat-tails!
