Then people will just autofire it. we need mages who summon in someone for the FTE.

[Daldaen]

Tranix just needs 96 hour variance.

[nicemace]

or just dont pay so much for an item that is obviously saturating the market.

[Freakish]

It's a camp. If you want the mob, sit on the spawn. I've killed him a few times for my crowns. You get there a few hours early, keep sounds on and tab out.

[Tameth]

not anymore butchh. protocol has the tranix camp 24 hours a day. GM enforced. he's let 2 or 3 Tranix spawns go in the last month and a half.

[Vaken]

Dont ya know Tranix crowns is the way to the afterlife...

But in all seriousness, It is kinda funny and sad that this dudes life is based around pixels and perma camping Tranix...

[Gimp]

+1 on Tranix variance.

He finally left Seb H cloak camp? Must suck for Nikkanu. I mean he was whoring that camp for a solid 6 months before protofag

Must be somebody else I've never solo farmed Hierophant. I don't like to impose on Crypt/Emperor groups because I'm a nice guy. :)

[Atalya]

Or because the run from Sol to EC is much shorter than Seb to EC

[Freakish]

Anyone going from seb to ec is using a porter or rezzing back and forth.

Sucks about tranix. I would be pissed if I wanted the camp. It's easily one of the best plat to effort camps for sure.

I remember camping it, he had 10 minutes until he popped and I had just cleared all the guards. Effing server repop.

[Mac Drettj]

join red99 today

[iruinedyourday]

They should just put tranix in a 8hr window so clark (who i thought was a good person) wouldn't be ale to so easily afk camp this thing.

Or autofire click fest, anything to make this guys day less easy to be such a server wide load greedy probable RMTer.

I mean honestly, RMT is banned on this server to prevent people from pulling this type of shit.

*edit* blitzkragg and I have had some conversations online - we disagree with his camping of the tranix. I think someone permacamping something this way is wrong in that the server hsa thousands of users and they should find ways to share camps instead of locking people out of these fine fun camps.

My reasoning is that if everyone acted the way blitzkragg did - or if even 7 other people acted this way, that would be 8 decent plat camps completely locked out, leaving about 3 or 4 left for people who play eq and are able to share norrath with the rest of the users.

RMT is banned on the server because it creates this type of play from farmers, I am not saying blitzkragg RMT's but I am saying that he plays eq with the same callous disrespect towwards other players as an RMTer does.

I believe with all my heart that GM intervention should take place and this camp should be opened up to other people instead of people that are on blitzkraggs list of acceptable applicants.

please, discuss.

Up to 10 corpses...

We should just shut the server down for a week and do no corpse summons. Corpse banking lore items is confirmed not classic strategy.

[jpetrick]

On Tallon Zek there was this guy who would perma camp Lodi and sell loot rights to the map. The guy was a well known platinum seller. He did this for months and eventually the GMs stepped in and told him to fuck off. On a pvp server. A server where if enough people got together you could just kill this dude and the staff stepped in to say "hey you need to stop monopolizing content". Something is fucked here.

[Widan]

Is there a plausible reason someone would do this besides RMT?

[Raev]

Is there a plausible reason someone would do this besides RMT?

No, not really.

[Naprox]

It's a clear exploit of "Lore" items. Simple code change would fix the problem for all items tagged as lore. But apparently that is too hard.

[Raev]

If I were a GM, I'd definitely be having fun hiding Blitzkragg's corpses in Kedge or whatnot

[Uuruk]

Cmon guys hes just a regular person that likes to spend his entire day collecting platinum for no reason at all. I'm sure its all banked or invested in other items.

[Daldaen]

If I were a GM, I'd definitely be having fun hiding Blitzkragg's corpses in Kedge or whatnot

This would be pretty funny.

1 corpse in each zone...

1 on Sky 8th island
1 in Kedge, Phinny Lair
1 in Permafrost, Bear pits
1 in Kerra
1 in Kaesora basement
1 in City of Mist, Neh'Ashiir island
1 in the Hole, at High Scale Kirin

That would be a pretty epic quest.

[Merekai]

He really hates it when you take "his" skarlon from him too. I mean because everyone knows that whoever is camping Tranix has rights to Skarlon too as a consolation prize if no crown drops....remember when you said that to me blitz? Hope you get a thrombosis and die, soon.

[Raev]

Logged in my enchanter and Improvise is AFK camping the spore king despite having two fungi tunics clearly corpsed already.

I blame Hokushin and IB for turning TMO into a constant AFK farm guild.

And Rogean/Sirken/Derubael, is this really how you want your server endgame to be?

[Freakish]

Spore king has been camped for years. Same with Tranix, efreeti, pained soul, frenzy, campX. The oddity is how dedicated he is to keeping it camped.

This really isn't anything new. For a long time, I had trouble getting Drusella for a NoS. That's a 24 hour respawn.

[Raev]

If Blitzkragg wasn't there, I wouldn't expect to waltz in and find Tranix up.

My problem is currently we have several extremely profitable camps that can be done while AFK. Since they require so little effort, we have 5-10 people, mostly from TMO, who spend literally all day every day at one. And really the only good reason to do so is RMT.

Conclusion: time to make Tranix FTE, allow groups to camp the spore king on his spawn point, and generally change the rules to disallow this idiocy.

[Freakish]

Tranix was fte at some points in his life. It was on a case by case basis / at gm discretion. I preferred that. Then one day I show up and I'm informed it's a camp and from this moment on no matter who calls it it will be a camp.

I traded the camp off a few times after that. I used a friends shaman, who he used to camp it. but I got bored. There was just so much more fun stuff to camp and I would rather play the game.

You can't tell me you don't remember shm mnk duos at spore king before invis nerf. You would see the same people there day after day. Wake up and it would be jeremy + mnk1. Check the camp later and it was jeremy +mnk2. Later on...cleric1 +mnk2. People get rich, get loaded with the tradeables of kunark and a new set of people 'discover' the secret camp spots.

[Raev]

There was just so much more fun stuff to camp and I would rather play the game.

Exactly. We both farm a lot and find it fun, but we mix it up because our goal is to both get some pixels and have fun doing it. And we don't RMT.

You can't tell me you don't remember shm mnk duos at spore king before invis nerf.

And I hated it then too. If you check the old A-Team threads you can see I was really pumped about invis pulling getting nerfed.

^^^^^

Game is boring with AFK campers.

[Gimp]

Butchh, name one highly profitable camp that you can mostly AFK at that isn't currently being locked down by members of TMO.

I'll be honest, at first when I saw the amount of time Proto was putting into Tranix, I was a bit impressed. That was like two months ago. I do most of my leveling in solb on other toons, and I've honestly never been in the zone without Protocol or Blitzkragg being there in the past two months.

It's a bit ridiculous.

I haven't been on in a month so I don't know what tmo is locking down. go do chardok royals, sell epic mq's, prot / tola. Jboots sell well. Guardian warms in SF.
Or beat the tmo farmers to the camp. You see 10 corpses. He has to leave sometime to make a corpse / sell crowns. He can't claim a camp while dead.

If only PvP were even remotely balanced this would be entertaining.

I like Raev's idea though. If you start corpse banking lots of Lore items GMs should summon corpses to annoying locations in far out zones.

Sky Plane, Sebilis basement, Charasis, Permafrost, Kedge, Kerra Isle, The Hole, City of Mist floating buildings, Nurga, West Karana, Lake Rathetear, etc.

Keep in mind they can always bring a necro around to every zone for locate corpse/summon corpse. But still, it would be funny. And its that many crowns that would avoid RMT.

Every spawn of an 8-hour respawn for months on end is a problem...

How do you even have a job or sleep being at your computer at every 8-hour interval? Inevitability this would get pushed back and wouldn't stay in some ideal before work-after work-before bed sort of time span. It would eventually be middle of the night, middle of workday etc.

Neckbearding is bad.

[Walth]

What if corpses were made to be considered as inventory/bank so lore items couldn't be stored on there.

[Korben]

Honestly if I were unemployed or had a job that allowed me to AFK Tranix I would do it in a heartbeat, and 0 motivation to be an RMT whore.

AFK camping feels classic as fuck to me. Plus you can play other games in the meantime on the main monitor.

[Raev]

Sure, but not for two months.

[Loke]

Ok, so I'm way too lazy to read through this whole thread, but has there been an official GM ruling on treating Tranix like a camp? Why is it not FTE? Anything with a static timer that is significantly longer than normal mobs and spawns 100% of the time is pretty much a raid mob. We just have such an unclassic spawning system for raid mobs that it doesn't seem that way, but Tranix is simply a lower tier raid mob like Phinny or Maestro. Someone shouldn't be able to claim the spawn by sitting there, they should have to tag FTE to claim imo.

[Daldaen]

FTE on Tranix would be glorious.

[Tameth]

[Daldaen]

Tranix with CT mechanic.

When Tranix spawns, every fire giant respawns.

[iruinedyourday]

Yea as much as FTE is a headache for CSR it has proven at ragefire that its not something you can "lock down" easily or at least anywhere as easily as you can afk at something for X hrs and then click click click, sit afk for X hrs.

(please don't take this as a challenge you locker-downers, you) :P

This would be un-classic, but a random spawn in an 8 hr window would force people to have to camp it. But FTE would be easiest to implement for staff.

[Korben]

I think there's a few prevailing arguments against how Tranix is currently being held.

Argument 1 seems to be ""Neckbeard has more free time/dedication than I do and that's not fair".

I personally believe that if you have the time and ability to camp a mob for any length of time and are not cheating our violating the rules, all the power to you. There's nothing that states that you can't enjoy camping Tranix or any other similar spawn just because other people want the precious pixels too. The game is all about enjoying it the way you want to play it, not the way other people want you to play it.

Argument 2 is "Neckbeard is such an RMTer". Unless you have actual proof that this us the case, you have no case other than BUT HE'S GOING TO SELL ALL THAT PLAT. Seriously, please try to understand that not everybody who has a lot of plat is also an RMTer. GM's do a damn fine job of policing this already and something this bold would and probably already is the focus of some of their attention.

Argument 3 seems to be "I want those fucking pixels and neckbeard won't share"

Crown is what, like 25% drop rate? So every 32+ hours he's making 27k or so? Sure it's an AFK camp but in that same amount of time, anyone capable of soloing Tranix could probably make about this much if not more. Even SF isle gives 800+ an hour on a busy day. So if crown is what you're after, and not riches, farm those riches and buy a crown and let the guy who never leaves the throne room.... never leave throne room.

Which brings me to another point.... if he's corpsing the crowns, take the fucking camp from him when he goes to corpse the crown. Any bottom dollar rule lawyer can see that's an open and shut case in the EQ courtroom. Wouldn't even get to trial.

I feel the arguments to change the respawn to make all FG's respawn is just stupid, that's not classic at all, and saying that is justification to get rid of the not classic camper is just as bad. You don't make something not classic to circumvent someone playing in a non classic fashion.

Making him FTE would also be a fucking shit show. Do we really need 15 people in Tranix's spawn point with auto fire too? That turns it into an even bigger cluster fuck than it already is, and GM's and Fraps would have to be involved, and we then start deleting loot and making him Class T and twenty six other rules nobody can fucking agree on.

I say if he wants to spend his EQ time doing ONE camp that you can easily take when he goes to corpse the crown, let it be. You, on the other hand, go kill Drusella or Emp, or any of the other dozens of camps that are fun, engaging, allow you to interact with people, meet new friends, play with old friends.

It's simpler than anything else, and eliminates the crying.

[Naprox]

I think there's a few prevailing arguments against how Tranix is currently being held.

The fact that this guy is 2 boxing I guess is irrelevant to you then. The idiot even admitted to me that he was on his monk, while at the very same time his Shaman which has all the crowns (because his monk IS NOT able to solo Tranix) was logged on in EC Tunnel selling a crown.

There is absolutely no logical argument you can give which will convince anyone here with more than 2 brain cells that aren't fighting over the same molecule of oxygen that is more conclusive to the fact that he is in fact selling plat.

Anyone defending this person is either in collusion with him or would have to be the world's greatest fool.

In the end, it is the community's fault for buying this item from him, with some share of the blame laid upon the GMs for enabling this reprehensible behavior.

Thanks for skimming the first sentence and then firing off a post directed at one of the 400 torpor shaman that hold Tranix spawns down for a length of time.

I guess what you're saying is we need to completely change the rules and/or mechanics of this spawn because one guy is 2 boxing?

Why do you even bother posting if all you are going to say is HEY FUCK YOU RETARD HE'S A PLAT SELLER FUCKING MORON I KNOW IT BECAUSE I SAID SO YOU ASS HOLE

Edit: after giving this some thought I have absolutely no idea what point you're trying to make other than you say he's an RMTer and 2boxer, and if that's the case why don't you submit this evidence to the GMs and it will be handled that way?

[Raev]

I talked to a guy in TMO and he was like "oh yeah, everyone here thinks Clark RMTs/boxes; he's been called out in guildchat numerous times".

I guess I should have expected no less from Raev. Your argument is "Korben is defending ANYBODY who camps Tranix, Drusella, etc, therefore he must be Clark's alt forum defender".

Ban any fucking RMTer / boxer, hands down. If people have ACTUAL proof of boxing / RMT you know they'd be posting that shit all over, if only to keep themselves from being suspect. I can't imagine everybody in TMO sees this one dude boxing in guild chat and says "this won't reflect poorly on us / get yet another ban, suspension, etc, levied against us if this gets out".

Stop slinging unfounded(no proof) accusations against people for boxing just because you disagree with what they're camping. This applies to every fucking time someone camps a mob for a length of time (king, drusella, tranix...)

Is there any other mob in the game similar to this that people claim in this fashion?

DE hut ( 8 hrs )- always who can tag first
Phinny ( 12 hrs )- usually not very contested but I have out 'mobilized' another group going for him in the past, most the time you just work out what items the others are seeking and /random
Drusella ( 24 hrs ) - no one sits in her hallway all day calling her on the CC, plus most the time its rare multiple people will have the timer to compete
Dartain ( 36 hrs ) - no one claims this one either, FTE unless you show up and people are socking behind the rock, then ur beat

I cant think of any other similar 8 hr spawn where its seemed fine and dandy to claim it as a camp as the 'accepted' social norm.

In fact ( about a year ago ) , Ive had a TMO waltz into Tranix's room, when hes due within 30 min, a group + of guildies all sitting on the throne n active straight up tell the other 8 people there that

HE is going to be trying to FTE, and he isnt going to hide it. Good luck.

We Lol'd and he repeated how serious he was.....

[Korben]

Tranix was ruled FTE many a times back in the day, I have no idea when it became a 'camp' let a lone one you even call in the CC rofl

Is there any other mob in the game similar to this that people claim in this fashion?

Where's the ruling on this, was it on forums or via discussion in game with GM? Does any proof survive? Could put the issue to bed right there if so.

Hopefully someone has this.

I'm also confused by your post. You said he was ruled FTE but you all laughed at a TMO guy for trying to get FTE?

like I said it was a year ago.

What used to happen is, depending on who answered your petition.....

GMs/Guides would say both it was a camp and it was FTE.

it literally depended on who you were talking to and what mood they were in.


I have clicked air for Tranix before, I have also showed up 3-4 hrs early to 'claim' him.

Somewhere along the line, all that mattered was if the person poopsocking the throne could solo him, then he could claim him. If you had a character there that could not feasibly solo the encounter, then you could not claim the camp for yourself nor could you hold it for your friends.

I have no idea when anything became 'official'. I dont think it ever has.....

Well like I said, it literally changed all the time depending on who answered your petition.

But it was incredibly douchey thing to show up alone, within 30 min of spawning, with 8+ active people already sitting there and tell THEM that you are going to go for the FTE.

Even if it was legit ( which it kinda was sometimes ) it was still worthy of being laughed at....

I think he eventually just logged out actually and didnt bother. We had a good lol about it in teamspeak with how confident and arrogant he was in talking to us.

Ah, that's too bad. One person monopolizing it aside, I think it would be good to have some actual clear rules on whether he's FTE or a camp. All I'm convened about is adhering to the rules overall.

Honestly, I'm about 60/40 myself on camp/fte. There's so many one off or gray area encounters in the game, none exactly the same, so it's hard to tell.

hence why you see such a disparity in the raiding scene lol

I too would like this situation kinda re-visited. I see it as an instance of "this is why we cant have nice things"

Tranix as a camp seems to me like a failed experiment that basically handed the keys to Crown of King Tranix to any shaman with no life/torpor

Just because its somewhat accepted now, doesnt mean it should be like that forever....

tho I think the easiest solution would be like what Crom I think said earlier in this thread, make corpses count as part of your bank/inventory

If he cant corpse the crowns as easy he will have to leave on occasion so others can swoop in ( its impossible to swoop in when he corpses the crowns, hes bound there and he has an entire 7 hrs 59 min to find a good 2-3 min opening to kill himself with no one around )

I am leaning towards if it's something you can solo kill, it should broadly be considered a camp if it has one and only one spawn point.

[iruinedyourday]

I am leaning towards if it's something you can solo kill, it should broadly be considered a camp if it has one and only one spawn point.

This is the issue korb, because the camp is so easy any one person can decide, "this is mine now, forever!" And none of the rest of the server can enjoy the 'fun' of killing and camping a fire giant in this fabulous pre-kunark zone, for a valuable reward!

100% of this server and the effort is for fun. Not proffit. If someone is making a proffit over everyone else's fun & potentially making people say, 'this server sucks because people are aholes on it.' Then we all loose.

As with all things on this server if someone is exploiting something and that has an effect on the server at large, a rule change is in order.

You had a post that listed the reasons this camp is contested and you left out, "a person wants to level up a classic toon and kill king tranix to get his magical crown!" For fun & role play and classic feels.

We should encourage that type of behavior on p99 blue at all costs. It's why we are all here.

[Uuruk]

[Erati]

I remember this one time, I logged in after work maybe around 6 pm est ( bout a year ago)

I said to myself, I wonder if any FGs are up....I gathered a couple people and ran over to Sol B.

As we killed that first roamer and worked our way up....low and behold there he was: King Tranix. He was standing there, his pet cackling as he played with his master's toes. Tranix's guards on high alert...their King could be under siege at any time.....but still there was a slight ease in their stance. There were not overly concerned.

My party rushed into KT's throne room and took on 4 giants at once, including the King himself. As I rummaged around the mangled corpses I saw something I did not expect.....King Tranix's Crown!!!!

Oh how I had wanted one of these for a long time. A very long time. I was getting tired of being feared when encountering a dragon and this was my answer! Plus it has no graphic so the ladies can finally get lost in my beautiful eyes....

What I wrote actually happened minus the RPG stuff....and its likely to never occur again so long as stuff like this is allowed :(

I feels you bro, but should the same be applied to VP? Sorry guys I want to level up and slay all of the dragons can you stop slaying them endlessly?

Now the fact that the guy still has to leave to corpse a crown opens up the door to take the camp. I usually don't rule lawyer to force people OUT of camps but... if you're dead you ain't camping shit son.

hes bound there and as soon as he dies his character load in right there and its still his camp

so you have like a 1-2 min window to 'swoop in'

its highly unlikely.....and if he simply asks a guildmate or 'friend' to come grab the crown from him to transfer, then he doesnt even have to corpse !

Where do we draw the line, then? How long exactly is long enough to camp Tranix before you must leave. There's no way you can enforce something like this on a case by case basis in every single instance. So then we have nothing but the hopes that whoever is camping leaves when they realize everyone is getting tired of not getting the spawn. Is it 1 kill? 1 crown? More, less?

The #1 issue is we can't police the policy of what should but doesn't exist which is "Don't be a cunt". People can be cunts all day, and as long as it's within the rules there's no social pressure not to be a cunt.

[Daldaen]

Don't be a dick yea...

Get yourself, 1 or 2 of your alts and maybe a crown or two to sell.

Don't corpse 12 and trade off god knows how many.

If you find yourself at a spawn getting literally every spawn for a week straight... leave.

When there are 11 pages in nearly 100% agreement, the camper himself agrees it's exploited and not good for the server, it's pretty obvious a rule change is in order.

Also were talking about one spawn here, not propagating this rule to all other spawns or VP in any way. In a game such as this we should look at how the entire server is affected by different things as a case by case basis.

This one is too exploitable by a single person. A, this is why we can't have nice things, issue.

Cheating is certainly pathetic. But staring at a wall for 16 hours waiting to spam a hotkey saying "NECKBEARDS, ASSEEMMMMBLE, MAESTRO HAS POPPED AND WE REALLY NEED MORE EVENSONGS AT 3AM ON A FUCKING TUESDAY"... is pretty damn pathetic as well.

But on-topic. Corpse banking is dumb. So is holding a camp for multiple days straight without missing a spawn.

It would be no surprise to me if or if not the C man was boxing..

It makes sense that after all these years you're like, not interested in EQ but still totally addicted so you camp a toon at a spot and just answer tells as you pass your PC..

it gives you some sense of satisfaction that you are both playing EQ now.. and doing things in your real life...

...to bad that behavior is only able to be done by 2 or 3 or maybe 4 people on the server MAX before there is nothing left to camp that allows for that type of, relaxed gaming.

let alone the behavior by a single individual affects hundreds of play nice Eq'ers that this server should try to protect.

Tranix, FTE, no socking pre velious, stop the madness..

[Gimp]

I'm just curious how you're still in TMO if you never respond to a single raid batphone and just sit at Tranix 24/7?

[Nikkanu]

Must suck for Nikkanu. I mean he was whoring that camp for a solid 6 months before protofag
Nice, I got a mention in a RNF worthy thread! :D

I only spent a couple months camping Tranix regularly, but even then it was usually only 2 spawns a day on most days. My shaman has only been 60 since July 24th... and I haven't killed Tranix since August, so you might wanna do some fact checking and doublecheck your math to avoid sounding foolish.

It was a good camp for me because I work a lot and could afk to work or sleep between spawns. Since I often play while I am working more active solo camps like Hierophant aren't really an option for me because they require me to be at my keyboard every few minutes.

Since getting a Donal's BP and Manastone for my cleric I haven't bothered with Tranix. The drop rate is pretty terrible, and there's a lot more fun and profitable things to do in the game now.

I think it's cute when people with far too much time on their hands act all butthurt about people that farm salable items in a game that was designed in a such a way to encourage farming of items to sell/trade for other items your character needs to advance and be more successful at harder content.

With that said I think Tranix being a campable mob is ruining the "classic experience" in this case.... and is easily abusable by having someone log in a monk from a different location and keeping that character FD and AFK for days at a time.

If the camp was FTE then there wouldn't be the incentive for people to sit there 24/7 for months on end because they couldn't guarantee they will get FTE every time. This would make it far more common to encounter Tranix up randomly... and wouldn't be nearly as permacamped as it is now.

TL : DR Version:

1. Get better things to do with your life than whining about what other people do in a video game.
2. Make Tranix FTE to put an end to permacamping.

[brecon]

Do people really think FTE is going to fix this problem? All it enables is a different form of frustration if it remains a fixed timer. Instead of one guy who, once he has the camp, is able to engage, it will be 4 different people, probably ungrouped, doing it.

If you're gonna make it FTE, make it random in a window like RF, where the expected average spawn time is 8 hours. Then people who want to camp it and FTE actually have to work for it.

Not everything needs to be more rules and GM involvement, but on this one, it seems the rules themselves (physical presence determining the camp) is the problem. The same thing can be said about the Fishbone Earring camp, but at least on that one, the randomness makes it more likely that the AFK camper will not be present, allowing others to take it.

[Daldaen]

And when you say "work for it".

You really just mean "neckbeard and stare at a spot for 0-8 hours hoping to spam click and get FTE".

Staring doing nothing for hours on end should not be rewarded.
Time invested PLAYING should be. Poopsocking and just aimlessly clicking for hours on end should warrant you a death touch and prevention from entering that zone to loot your corpse for multiple days.

something I just saw in server chat:



Something else important to note about handing off camps - in particular, popular ones, but this applies to any camp that becomes contested. If you are solo camping, once you attain the item you were waiting for (an AC ring, for example) you are done camping that mob. The next person on the camp list had better be prepared at this point in order to come eliminate the very next placeholder spawn in order to "stake his claim" on the mob. You cannot work wacky corpse lines on lore items in order to grab multiple items in the same "camp session" if there are others waiting to take the camp. Please be aware that we reserve the right to apply this same ruling to any camp if we deem it necessary, including camps with multiple players.

If by magically you mean a good friend wanting me to play his shaman when he isn't around, then I guess that's magic baby! I suspect your buddy lolz then was the one dispelling my roots, either way it doesn't matter. I'm glad everyone finally realizes how toxic your behavior is. Like I said before, unless you have something crazy expensive you're saving up for from selling all those crowns you farmed the past 6 weeks (which being in TMO, I'm unsure of what you need to save up to buy), I call RMT. Good day sir.

Didn't his guildy's even say he was banned for RMT before? Serious question<--

Is giving every fire giant in the castle a torch your style? I was surprised to see that literately, everyone had a torch lol.

Ok look.. on one hand I applaud you staking a claim in a sweet dungoin castle in norrath.. almost RPing your way into the games deep history... the castle of self proclaimed king Blitzkragg - hell I feel like once you are dead and gone that the server staff should put some rare loot crown on tranix's loot table with your name on it.

But still, despite all that cool RP shit.. it still sucks that you are making the whole tranix camp awkward as hell for people to contest, who just wanna kill things, instead of argue with someone over a camp.

Anyway I appreciate the RP of what you are doing.. but dislike the advantage you are taking of the server and the rules...

What I am getting at is, at least you aren't a 1 dimensional villain.

Blitzkragg..
When I walked into tranix bored sitting on rage this guy was in there boxing two shamans, telling me he hacks, telling me how he bought the account it came with a aon and all this other garbage.

Then I /duel'd him, walked away after 5 min figured he wouldn't hit /d, only to come back from being afk dead with a rez box.

I did /petition but only because it was clear as day what he was doing, i'm sure Sirken had a good laugh at my drunken ass paging then getting wrecked AFK in a duel ;)
5:25 am EST is the timer on it as of last night, GL if you want it. You got a guy two boxing the camp, maybe he'll be sleeping or something.

So many false accusations I don't even know where to start!

[Vyal]

It's not like I go around to camps and do a /d with people at the camp ask to hammer then kill em' and take their spawns :cool:

So your telling me you didn't say to me "I bought this account with the AoN", and "I am hacking" and the boxed shaman around the corner was imaginary?

It's a nice setup, leave the other shaman around the corner AFK with the pet on the spawn point, keep your active characters pet away so the AFK pet tags first then send yours in torp and it's a wrap.
If someone asks questions just claim your friend is AFK but it isn't you really.

Who is someone?

That is unsure - I was too far away to get a soandso begins to cast message but I had a FG rooted at the castle gate and was fighting a FG at the bottom of the ramp. Just happened to be casting a root refresh on the parked FG when the dispel hit. It was late at night and not many online so a quick /who showed Iolz and Blitz in zone, both of which I assumed were up in the castle. I can dig around a bit and try to find logs of this. It was probably 5-7 days ago maybe...not exactly sure RL been busy this week.

Glad I can just kill who ever is trying to do tranix, Nothing like this happens on red unless pvp is avoided and RARELY ever is something camped enough to warrant corpsing. Sounds pretty shitty if people are doing this at multiple camps, Hope GM's take a look further into it.

I would love to camp tranix for 8 hrs and then have someone jack me and tranix from behind, would be awesome.

Anyway, drop rate has somewhat leveled out. I guess it's supposed to be about 30%. We're also equipping a guild and not just farming to sell, so it's been a concerted effort.
