The class R argument of separate classes for different play styles just doesn't hold water. Two years ago TMO wasn't putting in 1/10th of the effort some class R guilds are today. If you want to kill a VP dragon just go do it. Stop trying to lobby your congressman. It's a game - treat it like one.

Two years ago TMO didnt put in extra effort because no one else was capable of trying to even put a dent into the raid scene with 96 HR variance and 24/7 on-call batphone raid forces parked at each zone. There literally was no chance in hell.

Nice try tho, I know it sucks now that the playing field is somewhat leveled and TMO regularly loses mobs its easy to complain about how the rules are boggin you down and Class R are a bunch of whiners lol.

Damn rules making a playing field more fair for all!

There is ZERO reason the COMPETITIVE class should have any spawns 'reserved' for them like Dald said. Every mob that is listed as Class C should be FFA.

Class C by their nature wins most of the FFA anyway, and its what they crave....competition and beating the other guy to the punch.

The sole reason Class C has their own allocated mobs is simply because there was too much pixel loss on the line which is unacceptable.

Because 96 hour variance is classic

I just find it amusing that you are whining about how the current system is not classic, when for years we had . . . another system that was not classic.

The simple reality is that Kunark (and probably even Velious) is just too easy. The only real competition is on repops; everything else is just a test of neckbeardery.

My original proposal was that repops be FFA and normal spawns be rotated (all guilds). I'm feeling pretty prescient with that proposal at this point.

I never said 96 hour variance was classic. I'm not sure why you felt the need to bring it up as that was exactly my point - unclassic rules being put into place to try to solve the raid scene when only new content can do that.

well at least there's a raid SCENE now instead of TMO retirement pixel packages

before the changes, raiding still happened, just no one was allowed to see it

It was only a matter of time. The question is: how retarded will the staff let blue become?

We all knew it was coming. Ride the Class R gravy train till trak gives up enough teeth...Then ask VP to be changed to FFA.

Apologies for my ignorance and slight derailment but, what exactly does Class C and Class R stand for? I've tried searching the forum however it limits my search to just "Class" since C and R are too short to query on, which gives me rather unhelpful results.

Change the current variance to +/- 4 hours imo. With the extended window code where if it falls into the last little bit the spawn timer rerolls.... Since it's hard for guilds in class r who field 60 or so during late mob windows to track (which is a cop out)

But jeremy I think we're already at full retard.

We all knew it was coming. Ride the classically long variance to lock down every raid mob for 2 years utilizing the biggest neckbeards on the server. Then complain that 1/3 of the mob respawns outside of VP is too much to 'give away'.
