..and LOL, I'm trying to help you guys get SOME AT ALL. Right now NONE AT ALL drops. Do you really think the GM's are likely to do this at all? Probably a more realistic expectation if you limit it somehow if you ask me.

Sorry for trying to help!

lololol

The drop rate is 0. He's advocating increasing it to something more than 0.

Don't you feel dumb now?

Damn. I mean, I try to stay away from forum posting, but I keep getting drawn back in... I've been able to turn away from a simple dumb comment here and there, sometimes just abandoning the entire thread to save myself.. but this one.. oh lordy lord.

Uh I don't think lowering the drop rate makes any sense seeing as Hasbinbad has near a full set... Why is it always *after* you get what you want that it's decided to nerf the drop rate?
So yeah hasbin already slapped you for this comment, but it's more than just ignorance of the fact LR stopped dropping. See above (quoted below)...

hi guys!

So, before lustrous russet was removed...
It was, like, flat out said. No "high end" knowledge required; no research required. Hi, FIRST thing said in the whole thread. Kinda set the tone for the whole post, so you'd think this would explain the rest of the silliness... but it does not.

Yeah... not as you're putting it. This is a recreation of the classic experience. People may want to do things that they may not have been able to do the last time around, but the server doesn't care. This project is not meant to get everyone a DE mask, manastone, LR, etc. - this has been made clear by Nilbog. This is his project to recreate EQ 99 style, and we are mere numbers and charts to him.

On that note I could care less if they add it back in or not
Apparently you're aware that LR was taken out? Not touchin this one anymore than that...

Well this one has been hit upon too, but uh: because it's not supposed to be in anymore.

let's either bring lustrous russet back into the game, or release PoH

So, before lustrous russet was removed, my guild (including myself) were all foaming at the mouth for PoH to be released. So, in the patch where the cryosilk robe and the lustrous russet was removed we thought "sweet, they're removing that stuff according to the natural timeline progression, that means PoH is coming out!"

but that was like a month ago, and we've gone from foaming at the mouth to being bored and playing grabass! (fun, but also gets boring)

I have a set of lustrous russet armor -- so this isn't for me, but i propose to put lustrous russet back into the game until PoH comes out! It'd be beneficial to all of divinity, most of transc, some of IB, and any other possible guilds that wanted to hop into fear. Would also give people something to do. We're currently in a sort of limbo state.

Thoughts?
I'm Tristin teh OR and I approve this message.

Legitimate question: Are we past-due for PoH? I'm not very sure on the timeline.

I'd love to get a suit of russet, but if the classic timeline had it removed well before Hate was released, so be it. I'm playing on this server to get as close as possible to the classic EQ experience, that includes the good and the bad.

Answer: No. Stop speculating on the timeline, imo. If you don't have the research skills to figure it out for yourself, then you shouldn't worry about it.
