Is it legal to repeatedly kill a quest mob just to prevent others from getting?

I'm more frustrated about not being able to get a tooth off Trakanon. Neck beards won't let the damn dragon breathe for 5 minutes before they down him.

I just don't have it in me to compete at that level. I am moderately ok with that.

What would you even do with a VP key if you don't compete?

How many bloomin' onions does it cost for SoW sword loot rights?

I don't know. Never been there.

Just cause a class can SoW themselves doesn't mean Jboots aren't still a useful item to have. There's been many times a insta click run speed increase has saved me a death. I don't disagree with you on the rest, though.

Honestly, though, you'd probably be better off just saving up for the MQ despite the fact that it kinda sucks to have to go that route. There's plenty of money making guides in the wiki where you could have that 5k - 6k by mid teens or early 20's.

I've done 2 Jboots on two characters on this server, one I farmed plat while leveling and playing the game, one I got on the list in Oot. The prior was definitely the more enjoyable route. Ymmv.

I've found if you are in zone and lose FTE race some of the regular J boot farmers of the past would accept a very significant discount if you offer to pay for loot rights, saving the farmer the bother of corpsing and MQing the ring.

Maybe not the solution you are looking for but it maybe a workable compromise.

I like this meta. I'll turn up and pay 4k(?) or so then flip it for "retail" <3

A service within a service! How deep does the MQ rabbit hole go?

Thanks, but the scum I see in S Ro aren't into that.

Just last night a druid (Druins) KS'd the first AC to ever spawn near me. It spawned near me, I was there first, I tash'd, he stepped in and rooted and nuked. AC KS'd.

He invited me to group, said I could loot and he'd have me suspended. I let him use lawyer-bs to threaten me into rolling for it, so I did. And I don't win rolls.

So I blame myself for succumbing to his threats.

But ya, AC was KS'd.

Neutral third party witness called him out for the KS in /ooc as it happened.

Actually, if you landed tash you had 'first to engage' so it was your mob to loot. The other player only frightened/tricked you in to the 'roll off' agreement because he knew HE was the one at risk of suspension for KSing. It was a ploy for him to get the loot and keep you quiet; it worked.

If you are the litigious type it may at least be worth opening up a conversation about it with CSR. I imagine the ring is already MQed at this point, but perhaps you'll be able to stop another player falling foul to this farmers' tricks?
