What drama? I've never played pre-60 EQ, so I'm not familiar with CT or anything, but it looks like Rubicite drops off of various named mobs in camps like Throne Room, et cetera. If the player in the group needs the armor, what drama is there in rolling for it? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I was hoping to get a set myself for my warrior since it doesn't look too terribly difficult to obtain.

Look at the p99 wiki for the prices rubicite sells for today. Now consider that on green it will also be the best armor pre planes (on blue it is fashion quest only)

I would not be surprised if the chest was on the list system.

That just sounds totally ridiculous to me, lol.

Why should someone have the right to roll for an item that they'll simply store in their banks for years until they can eventually sell it on the musty, old, stale blue server? I want to get as far away from blue as possible, and I don't want to have to deal with greedy jerks playing some weirdo long game at my tank's expense.

But who's to say how the game should be played? You want the item to make your character better, someone else wants the item to look cool, someone else wants a lot of platinum.

It is unfortunate that the best pre-planar armor also happens to be so unique looking and so limited, but you'll have to take that up with whoever made these decisions 20 years ago!

for what it's worth, some people might wanna loot it and just hit the destroy button, why not?

At Blue launch, everyone passed the Rubicite to the tanks. If you wanted it for collection reasons, you went after you were 50 and soloed camps for the pieces. I doubt that will happen on Green however.
