1 Guise in 24 hours? no manastone in 32 Hours
 
Classic or not, with the list system people are having to camp these places for 20+ hours straight with little to no way to take a break. That's just dangerous.

I've seen people suggest in other thread that maybe we use some kind of token system or something so that even if u quit your 20 hour session, it wasn't all for nothing. I understand wanting people to have to work for these legacy items but they shouldn't have to endanger themselves to do it.

Maybe just have it so every time one of the named monsters is killed everyone in the killing group is awarded through an item summoned on to them, a no drop token (IE Token of the Assassin, Token of Eyes). 80 of these tokens (x4 20 stacks) can be handed to shady in EC for the item. The items no longer drop. That makes these camps a min 40 hour camp if the named spawned ever single time. You can break it up across play sessions. You still gotta work at it.

Nothing is worse than spending 12 hours helping other people then sitting on the list at number 1 for 12 more hours only for the item not to drop for 24 more hours.

This is where you don’t get it. People don’t HAVE to camp these items, they choose to knowing the time required. If they choose elf sim pixels over their own health, time with others, etc., that’s on them. Why are we always trying to protect people from themselves?

It makes me sad so many people have so little going on in their life that they can effectively risk their health for pixels. I get some folks gave up on having a social life/responsibilities long ago, but christ, don't surrender your health so willingly.

Imagine being outraged at the randomness of the random number generator. Jesus wept.

Couldn't have said it any better than that. If this system kills someone then that's on the someone. And they shall get a Darwin Award for their trouble.

To be fair, the randomness of P99's RNG IS pretty fucking wonky.

I think the issue for a lot of the people is that P1999 specifically lowered the drop rate of this item, didn't they?

Wooted 12-27-2019 10:35 AM

When you see 3 TBBs and 5+ daggers, but no common drop, then yes that is what people are complaining about(justified). Clearly, the drop rates are not true to classic.

Tierilo 12-27-2019 10:42 AM

Yeah, when supplier rotting bags but 1 mask has dropped...
