Make MQ EPIC farming Illegal

[TercerRigo]

OP, get to 60, join a raiding guild, get your epic. Better people than you worked harder for their toys.

Forget all that. Instead grab eqemu, give yourself the epic, then realize you spared yourself hundreds of hours trying to get some worthless shit.

Elitism in a 20+ year old MMO is pathetic.

If you want an MMO where you can get all the good items in a short period of time, just play basically any other MMO.

The nice thing about P99 is you have the choice to play a game where items are actually rare. Why can't people have at least one MMO (P99) like that?

If you don't like how P99 plays, you have hundreds or thousands of choices for other MMOs. The same can't be said for people who want to play MMO's like P99.

You do,my opinion doesn't affect your enjoyment.

I suspect many abstain due to how hardcore some are about it. If I'm going to 24/7 something it needs to reward in something significantly meaningful. This thread is a turn-off because the answer seems to be either sink in all of your time or don't bother.

Break free eqgod34, learn the joy of making Norrath to your liking.

P99 is indeed a timesink. Nothing wrong with being unable to the sink the necessary time. Just play another game that takes less time. There are plenty out there.

Newsflash, it's not actually rare. There are a lot on the server and the number continues to go up.

That's why you should try to do something truly unique.

It's always such a caricature of a player as well.

For those who aren't in the know, OP is the typical epic hungry shaman player. This was their post in Green Trading:

"46 shammy here , im gonna get rammed flammed and shammed but im asking for a free tear if anyone has , never had epic on a shammy nor played a shammy and its really damn fun lol. Would be amazing if anyone had an extra one for real, id be in your debt majorly. Thanks"

So basically a shaman who just got to planar level and who just expects to have his epic handed to him. Probably didn't do the real quest either and just grinded some faction. Completely unaware of the nature of this server, that lots of shaman players get their epic well after hitting 60, that getting your epic is a journey which takes making friends, learning how to handle encounters/fights, stuff like that, and prefers the idea of the entire server's rules being changed to let him get his shiny toy.

Never mind of course that said change would have the complete opposite effect, and that he wouldn't even be able to farm his way up to his epic.

OP, get to 60, join a raiding guild, get your epic. Better people than you worked harder for their toys.

Do many shamans on P99 bother doing 'the quest' at this point on P99?

Seems an easy get you want to gatekeep for.. reasons?

Ludicrous criticism by a Daniel.

Any raid item in P99 is significantly rarer than the equivalent raid item in WoW. Instanced MMOs are going to have more copies of an item, even the rarest ones.

You're probably only getting 5 Vulak Robes per real year, for example. That's 10 across Green and Blue.

OP's attitude is lame

But so is that of many of the white knights here as well

Regularly see shamen druids and bards on the OoT AC list. Many MQ items are bottlenecked by greed and don't fool your self into thinking you are doing the server a service by your platlust
