It's stupid that dark elf parts don't drop in Mistmoore.

There I said it.

I am still frustrated that the halfling swashbuckler in FV doesn't drop halfling parts...

If 2-3 separate PL'ing groups were operating in MM at the same time and you wanted to XP there kined I don't think you'd see it with quite as much impartiality.

[kined]

except i completely would. i go to MM or KC or CoM and find camps full all the time, i would view it as the exact same scenario. i would get slightly annoyed that all the camps were full/taken, but thats part of the game.

I used to camp exe/sav/cav/sage/ass/sup with a 4 man exp group (all level appropriate for those camps) and maybe twice did anyone get upset with us, and then we just gave them ass/sup. What is the difference between us and the PLer? Nothing.

But if a PLer did this, people would flip out and petition like crazy. When really, there is no difference at all. It is a camp (in this case 5 camps, counting ass/sup as 1) and it should be treated the same no matter who is camping it.

That being said, I hate it when a spot it taken by a PLer, but they have just as much of a right to be there as I do.

I cannot stand Donald Trump for many reasons, one of which is what he recently said about Mexicans, but he has every right to say it.

The difference is power leveling is done for the benefit for 1 player and not 4. Also, the power leveling duo (which is how it is usually done), is presumed to have a lot more resources, game knowledge, and --most importantly -- options.

Edit: I used to run with a static group in LGuk...and we still got people harassing us/trying to steal the frenzied camp. So I'm not so sure if it has much to do with PLing.

I have met people on this server that came here with a 60 friend that PLed them and got them into a raiding guild....honestly those people don't wtf their talking about it when discussing leveling etiquette. Anyone else should know better than defend this duchebag practice.
It's not even like you cant go to unrest....just don't do it prime PST/EST..especially not friday/sat night like I've seen.

I look at PL as one of those stupid classic mechanics that this server is too nostalgic to get rid of. Along with hybrid penalties, lack of a bazaar, and "multi-questing" (the real reason the raid scene was garbage).

You sure spend a lot of time telling everyone else how they should play an ancient video game, on a server you say you don't even play on.

Sorry that you're mad. I still have friends on blue, I still log in to rez people whose streams I watch, mess with alts etc. So wow, I'm not allowed to enjoy trying to get a group in zones that are usually busy and groupable? This is bad for the server's health - new players come to P99 to relive and replay their Classic EQ experiences... but find powerleveling in these zones, people geared to the teeth, fat with platinum dropping big amounts on getting leveled.

You want to defend that?

Did you know you can play red and blue at the same time? I guess you didn't.
