CSG Successfully Crawls NToV Despite EQ Being Difficult

[REMEZ]

The crawl was alot of fun!

And who cares if we took our sweet time?
We had to figure shit out, its not like we do this every week.

CSG only took Yeli because other guilds couldn't quite down him, but PS had some absurdly good runs with a small force and almost finished him, and took down a bunch of other mobs as well. Guilds such as BG got a lot of classic and Kunark content down.

Did CSG stricly adhere to raid rules regarding FTE lockouts, accidental FTEs, kiting?

I keep hearing about hardcore guild members complaining in this thread but I didn't actually see anything like that when I read it. Oh well. Grats casuals!

OMG could you be anymore obvious in your complaining over casuals getting the pixels while your guild is on suspension?

Damn. I spent the day playing Factorio... Sad I missed out on this, as this is the scene I was hoping to experience again. Glad ya'll had a good time though!

Would hate crawling NToV each week. Hell even once a month would suck.

Skipping trash and solo pulling dragons the moment they spawn is the reason P99 is fun. Add that in with another guild doing the same thing. Makes for good times. Sure we step on eachothers toes every so often hence this suspension, but at the end of the day, you guys got to enjoy some old school NToV crawl. enjoy some pixels, and enjoy some raiding you dont normally do. And us A/A members got to level alts or play other games

seems like a win win situation to me

more pictures of the CSG clear!

I agree, it's fun to see Awakened/Aftermath out in the wild. Yesterday, Fifield (AM) and I (Awakened) with Huflungpoo (Anonymous) got the chance to help an Auld Lang player finish her 8th ring.

Anyone in Awakened/Aftermath really loves this game and the content. Sure, the pixels help motivate some players but people who only care about pixels never survive in an era where certain BIS items don't even drop for Awakened/Aftermath for months at a time. In an era where group content items like 9th Ring are better than almost all of NTOV's rings drops. On a server where choosing to avoid competitive raiding frees up a ton of time for other cool stuff.

So yeah, grats everyone on your pixels!

This seems like a serious statement, makes me sad really. I don't think that is what Nilbog had in mind when he started this project, was more to recreate the nostalgia of EQ. Dragon life spans of 10 minutes just sucks due to wall staring. Wish there were bag limits on raid targets to prevent such content prevention.

I do zone line pulls in the Hole for epic mobs for guildies and occasional cash, but damn. This is making me feel dirty... no more.

It may not be what he had in mind when he started this project, but the fact that gear is hard to come by on this sever is what makes it thrive, (that and the leveling 1-60 is amazing).

Every other server that has a stopping point at an expansion dies off because it gets boring. Watch agnarr, agnarr is so god damn fun and it will be untill a few months after Quarm dies, most everyone will leave to do something else. But not ol P99. were all here still playing for some god unknown reason. We all might not play as hard as we used to back when velious released, but we still log in.
