Lol, shift working a Manastone in 2020 on an emulated EverQuest server. If only most of you were this determined in life to uplift uourselves out of the poverty in your life.

Then you could just pay a Chinaman to do it for you...oh wait...some already do this...hint...hint.

What if you are someone like me who rerolled on red99 from scratch with zero accounts in 2020 and doesn't have nor need a manastone, so unless someone gives me one, I won't have one. Because I doubt I will farm plat for a legacy item.

Never know.

I guess lich will have to do [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Actually. There are many elf friends and elves with manastones, and so the great manastone spirit lives throughout our elf lands. Therefore, every manastone farmed is a manastone had, by every elf who desires one deeply enough to have a stone, feel it in their little elf hands, and marvel at it's wonder.

Thank you manastones. For being. Manastones. For the elves. That need you. And use you.

Someone buffed me with their manastone earlier today, that was nice of them to share their manastone in that way.

The problem is that guilds are offering DKP for their players to get mana stones for the guild. Which seems to me to be against the idea of the list - which was ultimately to prevent the high powered guilds from overcamping the legacy items.

If you already got your manastone and it wasn’t so bad, it’s because it was before this started happening. It is no longer humanly feasible to do by yourself without considering health risks.

“We hope this system will prevent the practice of passing camps and/or items to friends, corpsing additional items, and so on.”

Sharing guild accounts for an entire guild to camp manastone is a problem.

Are you suggesting a game patch, or a humanity patch, though?

Not suggesting anything. The end result is always the same, guilds take over servers by design. Nothing you can do about it but prevent the exploits as best you can but eventually they find a way to spoil it for everyone.

Even if guilds were removed from the game, eventually the same exploits would occur. If they wanted to really get technical they could remove people from list if they use /q or camp or enter world from a different IP.

I think the problem is the random checks, why do they need to be 5-15 min? Once per spawn I think should be sufficient. You gotta sweat it if you want like do laundry or something. Just put random number generation on every check an have fewer, 1-2 an hour. Listing is actually good, because without people would be kill stealing, the listing prevents kill stealing an ninja looting. But maybe that's why people are crying, they can't kill steal it or ninja loot it.

If Corona virus spreads, I will be nr 39 on the manastone list.

Can't wait to have groceries delivered while 3 weeks off.
