So much wasted time and zero custom content
 
So..before you all tell about the nerfs you could guise under the term custom content, that's not what i mean.

It occurred to me today that there have been hundreds of hours (maybe more) spent on creating policy and layering raids. I feel like this work gets wiped away by changes in the social dynamic or changes to nerf the play base.

Instead of wasting time with a temporary solution why not just create some more raid content? Some really easy content to install would be single mobs in already iconic zones.

Why do i say it would be easy? Because there is a metric booty load of data to show how a mob should be tuned so it creates a certain level of difficulty for current p99 raiding capabilities. Same goes with mob drops, and besides, everyone is so crazy over geared for the content we could literally skip to pop and get into ele planes without looting a single item after gridning AAs.

So here are some amazing ideas for where to place new raid bosses:

1. City leaders or iconic city figures.
2. Bring back Mayong Mistmoore and make him hit like AoW and proc like VS
3. Add the guardians in Skyshrine
4. Why are there not more spooky undead dragons to raid in DN?
5. Odus needs a raid mob...period.
6. A kraken in any of the ocean zones
7. The maze in Kerra Isle needs a raid mob
8. Temple of Sol Ro needs an Avatar of Sol Ro
9. Make a raid version of King Xorbb
10. Make Bristlebane an actual fun raid to do
11. Lake Rathe needs a Lochnees monster to raid
12. Halas Arena - Fight a berserker that is a badass, maybe even a ring style event.
13. Deep in Akanon something went wrong..fight a crazy steam powered beasty

And if the EQ lore leaves you creatively dry... here's over 100 pages of inspiration from the EQ creators muse

Speaking of wastes of time...

If they were going to create a new raid mob, they should make it cooperative instead of competitive somehow.

I'm thinking like GM event type situations where everyone involved gets something mediocre and a lucky few people get something high quality.

Because this isn't actually a video game.

This is a museum piece that the curators allow the public to wander around in and interact with as long as certain rules are followed.

So much nonsense on these forums because folks don't seem to grasp this concept.

The purpose is not to entertain you, the purpose is to entertain them.

You are tolerated, because the curators have found that some folks actually have the same appreciation for the artwork that they do, and they want those folks to be able to see it.

That is all.

Also wouldn’t be surprised if some of OP’s suggestions could be considered prohibited under the legal agreement with Daybreak
