you should have to explain why elder beads are "good" before you can be added to the list. it'd be much shorter

jokes aside, i was really hoping the elder bead rush would reveal the true issue at hand: sneak pulling is STILL a thing??????????

I don't think I have. I know quite a few people who have given it a try based off forum recruitment in threads like Derubael's (not to mention the JCing I've done for new starters that have needed to fill slots) but then I wouldn't expect someone who doesn't play there to see that.

Not sure getting PKed in the middle of a long camp is much of a time saver compared to the other blue server's list.

if you would rather have your only option be to wait in line, vs having the opportunity to at least TRY to chase someone out of the camp, i cringe for you

I'm actually very proud of my server for figuring out a way to control what would have been a CSR nightmare had that list not been established.
Say what you will, but it works. Unlike red.

So I was the first to get back online to help keep the list going but there are too many holgresh and I died. Of course the people logging in wouldn't help me, they just wanted to FTE it... if you're a cleric and feel like rezzing me please let me know. Grats on your beads people.

Why are people on the list if they aren't there waiting?

Is it in the rules somewhere that this is how it works?

Just asking because it's not making sence and because im a noob. But as I recall back when I played EQ 15 years ago. You had to be present or within 5-10 mins distance (like another group in the same zone/dungeon).

Person A gets Holgresh Elder Beads, Person B is next on list but not online, Person C is online but not at camp, Person D is online and at Holgresh camp.

Camp goes to Person D.

Tell me how this is a red approach. More like a classic approach, this would never be allowed on classic, you camp your beads and you ooc when you are done, next FTE comes along.

I don't see any red in there do you?

To be on the list you should have to be at the camp and not 20 zones away or on an alt.

That being said, I got my beads uncontested and in a few days via casual farming. No list bullshit for me.

Whoever wants it the most will stay there and wait patiently (responding to a message within a minute or so if its their turn), not play an alt or log out entirely and expect an update 3-4 hours later.

The 70k might be about liching necros tapping mana-free pets cast by an item with unlimited charges. Or it might be about farmers grown so rich and lazy they can't be bothered recharging/replacing stalking probes. Or maybe it's just conspicuous consumption, like casters driving up the price of Book of Scale because they want to strut around the EC tunnel wearing Miragul's Robe, who knows?

As a bard you ca use the singing steel helm. I mean, you have to equip the helm, and it takes 4 seconds longer to cast. However, when would that ever be a big deal for a bard using it.
