Any sort of "drama" you see on the forums is just a loud minority, exactly the reason you only see it on the forums. Most of the people posting on the forums about the raid scene don't play here anymore.

I guess I suck because I don't have any EQ friends...... HAHA

No. My play time is so irregular that I need to make more EQ friends as my toons are getting close to levels and can have their epics.

No one said you suck, but you legit can't solo most epic content. So it's either get a guild, make friends there or no guild and make friends on your own to help you.
Or you could always pay people to help you kill stuff if you have the plat. Or just simply buy MQ for your epic pieces (depending on epic).
Shrug.

70 million years ago dinosaurs had all the good niches and crushed or ate everything else, which left the mammals with nothing but the bottom of the food chain.

After the extinction mammals became the big guy in town and do the same.

The same thing would happen if you got rid of A/A. FoH, Venerate, or w/e would just fill the top niche and shit on everyone else.

The rules which are made to promote competition and give casuals a "chance" are arguably catering to the hostility of the raid scene.

Competition is why lions get so violent and kill competitor offspring and bite off reproductive organs of their enemies.

I've seen A/A believe it or not (I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it happen) work with a smaller non raiding guild to take out a raid target.

I've also seen them completely over take smaller guilds in arena because AoW had popped, and they didn't care about the disruption they cause because you know the AoW was there.

For some epics you could never finish with any old guild or "friends" because the raid mobs you need are poop socked to the extreme and you would never get a chance at it, or you could spend 100 - 500k per quest piece to get it from the poopsockers giving them even more reason to prevent others from getting in on their cash cows I mean epics drops/mobs.

Some epics are harder than others, very true. If your old guild or "friends" can't help you get that "super poopsocked mob" then they aren't the right guild/friends to get you your epic. Unfortunately that's how this game on this server is played. Find a guild/friends that do those things and you'll get your epic. That could be said for any item in the game, there is some guilds/group of friends that get these things so they are not impossible to get.

As far as I know the white/green scales from Vox/Gore/Sev/Hoshkar are NOT sold at all whatsoever, which ironically enough are "super poop socked" by casual raid guilds with the exception of Hoshkar in VP.

It's exactly this kind of BS that's kept me from joining any guilds thus far. I almost feel like I've come to the conclusion that I won't ever get my epic/s and won't have raid gear for my toons.

I'm partially alright with this but there's a part of me that would like to be able to partake in the raid scene but don't want all the drama.

You have been here since 2011 bro - I can guarantee you if it hasn't happened by now its not going to happen at all. Casual scum must pay tribute to their A/A overlords in order to make pixel gains pleb.

You guys have to make agreements and rotations for raid mobs in EQ 18 years after it released, Nuff said. The raid scene was ruined the second you all started submitting to agreements and rotations over mobs instead of fighting for them. In EQ some people got the gear some did not this server is time locked for its progression so your real issue is with the pixel hoarders, That being said this server already has a shit ton of plat floating items going and nothing to remove plat from game I.E mounts or the luclin casino. GL hf guys

He's defending his lifestyle. Just like Erati was doing on Page 3 and 4. They know they're about to lose it, so they're holding on as hard as they can.
