Issue is that on live you had multiple repops per a month resulting in broken spawns that popped throughout the week, not the everything dead in 3 hour fest we have on red where repops happen every 8-10 weeks.

Repop days are classic, and would definitely afford more chances for competition guilds, but on servers with high pop and good guilds everything died on repop day within a matter of hours.

WoW has instanced raiding and it's raid scene is about 10x more hardcore. What stops everyone from having the same loot then? Because raiding in WoW is actually difficult. The difficulties of EQ are all artificial cockblocks.

Never found anything hard about WoW raiding. You get a measly 25 players that are competent enough to play their class and capable of attending uncontested raids where you avoid giant rings on the ground or other ridiculous mini games that any 12 year old can master.

Everquest is a completely different game. Its apples and oranges. Its always been more about the social aspect and large scale competition. Sure you can zerg down any target, but the difference between WoW and EQ is that we still learn new strategies to accomplish goals in EQ with fewer people, faster and more easily. Due to the childishly simplistic game mechanics in WoW, no matter how much time passes you will always accomplish everything the exact same way.

Everything in wow is easy and oversimplified.

When I was raiding in WoW we raided 3 days a week, we showed up at a specific time, cleared Frozen Throne shit whatever it was called, some trash, some bosses all back to back.

And then agreed to come back next week at the same time - sounds like Nihilum raiding exactly.

Oh goody, story time.

On live EQ we had patch day. On patch day we logged in when servers came up and killed dragons.

Rinse and repeat.

Just comparing WoW to my Nihilum experience, the same thing.

Actually I think WOW heroic raids were harder, because I had to do more than just listen to some nerd tell me to go and press attack now.
