Raid Scene Questions
 
For whatever reason, I don't have acces to the raid forum.

Why are there spawns exclusive to Class C? In retrospect that doesn't make any sense. We really ought to have Class R and FFA spawns. I don't care about the split. Make it 2 FFA to 1 Class R if that works. But it's sort of counterintuitive to the spirit of competition have spawns restricted to only Class C.

Also this is quoted from the raid forums:

"I like Catherin's modification to the original agreement.

1. Killing an OOA is punishable by GM staff with a minimum of 1 week suspension.
2. A guild under suspension is not able to kill Nobles/OOAs"

What the hell are we talking about with this? Killing a mob gets you suspended!? This can't be seriously under consideration. This is a game where you kill mobs for Chest's sake. This feels like a bridge too far. Everquest is and always has been a game of risks. You leave OOAs up to generate more nobles. You do so at the risk that one of the other participating guilds breaks their agreement and douches out or the server goes down or whatever. Either way it's rediculous to even consider this option.

no one should be able to kill anything without the consent of chest first otherwise they eat a 2 week ban

This should be fun.

Killing certain mobs already gets you suspended.

Just like killing a mob while locked out in Class R gets you suspended?

Currently class c guilds would have to be part of the rotation then as well. I am not sure you would hear much argument from C guilds on them getting in the r rotation and having 2ffa for every rotation spawn as long as you leave vp all FFA.

Agreed that staff shouldn't ban for violation of player made agreement. Trigger strategy activated, cooperation failed, daily spawn becomes weekly. Shit happens. Could attempt again, but I don't think anyone has faith in it working again.

There is a big difference between being suspended for killing a mob that you are not eligible for because of the server rules that someone else is designated to kill and anyone getting suspended for ever killing a specific mob.

The entire raid scene is a staff enforced player agreement; the players were just pushed into it. This should be less controversial because it benefits literally everyone.

Shinko 06-11-2014 04:39 PM

why don't you guys man up and come to class C?

if you want to play endgame p99 come play with the big boys
