Juz go with the pure classic dawgs.

So take currently droppables and make them non-drop but take currently non-drop and make them droppables?

I know you're hell bent on designing something that punishes the most active players but this is bordering on asinine. I'm trying my best to be constructive, honestly. I like the fact that you're thinking out of the box and putting thought and effort into your ideas. But it seems like the premise of every one of them is to make it so casual players have an easier time, and raiding/more active players are the only ones who can lose.

I'm telling you, none of these ideas will do anything to combat the uberguild mentality. EQ was literally designed around it. Raid mechanics like mobs with over a million HP. Or death touch. Or massive amounts of adds. Those were put in because of the expectation level you'd have 4 or 5 full groups for any raid encounter.

How would designing sub par lvl15, lvl30, lvl45 items punish the most active players? I dont get it

What other idea have i proposed that punishes active players?

I thought almost all of it was droppable? All the classic specific armor for shamans is anyway, the only crap I bothered looking in to. :P

You guys I'm only on page 2 but I have to say something. If you aren't pvping then don't talk like you know what goes down. There are never any "root bombs" going off in mass PvP. It never happens. When a target gets called, the pell train hits. Not the "stand around casting root 5 times" train.
