Why is Verina Tomb on a window and why isn't it treated like a scout roll or angry? It's pretty silly to have people waste up to 48 hours staring at a monitor, only to have "loot rights" scumbags log in and kill it for plat.

I'm just struggling to understand the point of this, because it's so far from any sort of classic experience right now. I understand windows for raid targets but not epic NPCs like this one. It would be really great if we can all come together and create a player made agreement for this and VD.

I don't think a single enchanter would disagree with you. I think there's a reason there's a noose in her room...

Vessel Drozlin is even worse, and nothing about either experience is even remotely classic.

There have been a couple of attempts at a player agreement, but loot-right sellers will never abide.

Nothing worse than spending 24+ hours at a spawn, only to have some loot-right seller log on at the most convenient time with his 3 "friends" and FTE the mob while you were trying to coordinate reinforcements.

The only real option is to convince a few friends to waste an entire weekend alongside of you, while you all contemplate using that noose.

It's miserable, it's an absolute waste of time, it has zero resemblance to the classic experience, but the FTE rules on these spawns have been argued ad nauseam. The server staff doesn't care.

You have to oppress enchanters overpowered asses somehow.

It's not cost effective to farm VT and VD for loot rights, unless you're two boxing. Server staff should investigate any loot right sellers for that.

However, some people are that bored and enjoy wasting their time that much, but even they get burnt out. So it goes in waves. Both VT and VD can sit up for minutes or even hours.

Just saw her the other day, standing there all smug with nobody in zone. Thought it was kind of odd to see her up.

One of the perks about playing off-peak managed to grab her during a restart during Aus peak after trying to unsuccessfully grab her for a few weeks on and off. VD on the other hand was able to secure fairly quickly.

Glad to see in the 4 years since I did it nothing has changed!

What if I told you this is how it worked in classic?
