Scout Roll Agreement 2017

Scout is a FTE turn-in quest mob. Rolling for turn-in and loot rights is a shit show. Period.

Yeah, because a guy waiting for Scout for hours gets trumped by plebbs. Sounds very non-dramatic...

Oh I have, and that's why I disagree with this roll crap to begin with. Let me ask you this, what prevents some nerd from bringing a stupid amount of his/her guildies and friends to roll for him/her so that he/she gets the item he/she desires? And don't say that crap doesn't happen, either. I've personally seen it at Scout rolls. It creates an unfair advantage where as the clickfest is more of a matter of skill, not turds in numbers.

Clickfest was never a matter of skill. A group of people, about 4 or 5, would use .ini file editting and autoclickers to win.

I won my scout roll by proper placement of my toon and spamming the f*ck out of my mouse, I'm sorry if that didn't work out for you. But it worked for me [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Couldn't agree more. Its just more unnecessary dramatic bullshit that the peons of Norrath try to make classic function as non-classic.

This has been the whole discussion this time. If this is NBG or general rolls. Even if youre in KC, and have a general NBG set up, if a T staff drops it is quite generally known to change and not be NBG anymore.

The whole point of this discussion is deciding the ruleset, and it isnt NBG yet. As evidence, even with the current way it is working, many, many, many people did not think it was NBG. Just because one person thinks it is, does not make it so. And what do you decide is NBG? What if the char is geared beyond belief with NToV gear, but simply lacks this bracer for say, +1 str over their current lesser bracer. Does that count? Hence, it is entirely NOT fair to arbitrarily decide who gets loot or not. This is just your inner greed talking and telling you to not allow others to roll since you feel entitled to loot.

IF you are in a pickup group, with 1 + 4 guildies + 1 rando, and loot is greed, guess what, its fair that if a guildie wins roll they can delegate to another guildie, as they won the loot, no matter what they decide to do with it.

Again, you are not a GM, you do not decide rules on the server. This is an open discussion, and the fact that some people are saying "No, I decided this 1 rule by myself to get better chance at loot, and anything you say is completely wrong" kinda upsets your whole rationale about making server a nicer place to play.

If I'm online, I'll help whoever with this. I dont want to roll or any loot. Enjoy your game.
