I agree to maintain a healthy server there has to be things done to help stop some camps from becoming over farmed. I don't care so much about j boot or some other non epic camps. But epic items yes anything related should be nerfed or changed to help the lower and poorer end players a way of completing their epics fairly and in a timely fashion.

And yes I believe people who can manage to complete whole epics mqs are a part of some shandy business going on. Some may be gearing alts but some could likely fuel the black market rmts. Everyone seems to flame anyone who suggests rmts happens. But honestly what's someone gonna do with mage earth staff mq cash asking 500k or something...how does this in any way help a part time player who plays a mage a chance at ever finishing their epic if the earth staffs value remains this high?

On my final note on live atlease after a few years so many expansion came out some if not most bottle neck parts of everyone's epics were nerfed and people could finally finish their epics. On this server its very unlikely that will ever happen. keeping the elite jobless a top the server and anyone else always and forever out of reach of ever making a real run at their epic with some epic mobs being killed within moments of spawning.

Peace.

Cleric epic was bottlenecked, probably still is, due to the MQ crowd.

If MQ was taken away, it wouldn't take much to PL an account and do things that way. You can move the goalposts but you'll never stop people climbing over each other to make the Top 10 in the rich list.

Those people need to get a job/have a life, they'll wake up at 45-50 and realise their life passed them by otherwise [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If people couldn't mq the cleric epic they would still camp Ragefire for his loots. If only clerics could do the quest they would still be there, selling the loot rights to heart or just going after normal loots.

Do you forget what "the project" is or do you make these posts just to keep the forums "classic" too?

This game is like real life. Money talks. It just happens to be plat on here. So like it or not people are going to farm the hell out of Fungi's, FBSS's etc. Perma camp the shit. So get over it.

Multiquesting is as classic as 3 hour CRs and boat rides. Taking it out would be ridiculous.

I dont care that people are doing it or that people have advantages from having started earlier and/or putting in more play time...All MMOs have that and people who play a lot and got started earlier shouldn't be faulted for playing the game. People who have put in more time or started earlier should be rewarded for their efforts and time spent and if they want to use that to their advantage, who can really blame them? Most people would. Kunark's been out for 2 years....People have to have something to do so some are MQing epics.

The rub, for me, is that a lot of folks on the high end got a head start before the server was as "classic" as it is now. They got to level faster and acquire gear they wouldn't have live because there were non-classic features and mechanics available. When I started here 3 years ago there were translocators because the boats hadn't been put in, a compass, and map functionality etc, etc. All those little conveniences add up over time to a major advantage. An advantage that newer players will never have. The changes and nerfs that constantly come along to make the server more classic are great, but they don't undo the damage to the economy, the advantage that has given some people and, arguably, widen the gap even further. It's unavoidable.

Couple that with the fact that, until last week, you could legitimately sell your accounts to other players for in-game plat. Something that was NEVER remotely permitted on live. So they fixed it. Did they take back the plat that people got from selling their accounts? They can't, obviously, but how much of all of the above has compounded the problem?

All of which is why, after velious is out for quite a while and all the kinks are worked out, I hope we have a new server at some point.
