Three step plan to fixing P99 blue endgame
 

Step 1: Simulated maintenance days. It's classic, and EQs entire raid game revolved around it.

Step 2: Disable variance. I can see why this was done originally since there's no weekly maintenance. It would not be necessary with maintenance day simulation. If you need examples of why, look no further than classic live EQ.

Step 3: Ban people for breaking the rules. Suspensions mean nothing to most of the people abusing the system.


That's it. Bring back true classic EQ raiding!

heck, why not simulate more bugs and nerfs that are later fixed/reversed.... siigh

I agree about #3... but, that not gona happen

Steps 1 and 2 would re-establish a natural order. Its the way of things.

Agree on all 3.

So you want the simulations to include downtimes? Or just random repops of boss mobs? :D

Agree *only* on 3.

#4 randomly shut down the server for 3-8 hours with no explanation. It's classic :D

I think we get semi-close to that with the login server dying as often as it has lately, ha.

I worry for the socio-economic problems of the server related to unregulated casinos and and the Wall St "buy low sell high" fatcats in the EC tunnel.

If we aren't careful there will be a Marxist uprising and the server will turn a communist red (not to be confused with P99 red).
