The player-moderated Ancient Cyclops list is a disaster.

I realize this advice is useless to those not having a farming toon but that's not on me.

I can farm, I shouldn't have to do it. Jboots isn't a droppable high end raid item. If it were, you could make this argument.

"Your guild can't handle XYZ mobs so you'll never be able to get that item on your own, just farm plat and buy it!" -- Perfectly fine if we're talking about a Cloak of Flames. Not fuckin' jboots. Sorry.

I understand your point. But the reality on the ground is that this is a high-stress and unpredictable camp. I fully agree that you and I should be able to camp it without having to dox and murder people to advance. I think though that to have a passable experience in this game you need to identify bottlenecks to progress and work around them. I know it's not optimal to your character's story to not get the ring yourself. It sucks. Still...

If only AC spawned in other zones that didn't require you to join some stupid list.

On aradune he spawns from any seafury cyclops and the island is 10x as big and has 5 x the spawns its so much better !

Sounds like a perfect server for you.

Sounds sad. Looks like you enjoy games like WoW

TLDR: Guy puts name on a list; guy waits a week without actively having to do anything; guy is sleeping when it's his turn. Guy gets put on back of list. Guy sticks around and gets whiff he might be able to bypass the entire line by resetting it; someone further on the list than him shows; guy rants about it all day and night and now actively tries to ruin it for everyone

The list is way better than the alternatives... namely /list or just sitting there till you fall asleep. You can see what your position is, and do a /who all the people in front of you to check out your relative chance of handling the list. The only people the ac.kingdomdkp.com list is NOT better for is for druids and wizards, because they can bind and port. Everyone else? The list is great.

So,

Nerd A got ring.

Nerd B103 was at the camp, awake, prepared to engage for the next spawn.

Nerd A kept the camp after having the ring, but kept trying to reach Nerds B1-B102, none responded.

Nerd B103 got pissed.

Nerd A still kept killing PHs telling him someone on the elf list will eventually show.

Finally Nerd B45 comes trotting up to take them camp while Nerd A has been holding down the fort.


Is that correct?

If it was m, Nerd A gets their ring, if no one else is present to claim the camp, then all 100 or 500 nerds can get fucked. Nerd A don't get to hold down the camp still. The entire "player agreement" sounds completely ridiculous, and I can't believe anything other than pixel avarice is winding up the world over this camp.

Pretty simple. If you own a camp, finally receive the loot of the camp, and no one else is present to take over the camp, then each and every nerd can suck a dick at that point.

I agree with you
