I once did the Jboots /list in Najena.

Yeah I did 26 hours (or 25?) for jboots and noped out of any others. I'm too old for that kind of stuff now. I did get on the guise one though because it was empty one day and that went quickly enough since I started at #1.

JBoots was fun for a while though - I was level 40 or so, so I kept pulling open named mobs for the group in the wee hours of the night. Several people got FBR's, black tomes, traveler's packs, and some bracers so at least they got something if they ended up dropping off the list. Also, it helped me stay awake so win/win.

I wonder how much plat to pay jboot farmers you could have farmed with those hours on your own schedule with no afk check box.

Definitely enough to buy a couple MQ's. That wasn't the point though. My first pair of jboots in live was from Drelzna thanks to a random tell I got while xping in lavastorm as a wizard. Guy just said "hey zone in here and loot these" and boom I had Drelzna's boots. Wanted to see what camping them was like. Granted the list makes it different (and miserable) but hey - you get a taste and realize it's not for you. It led to me not being interested in any other /lists and if I were presented with the opportunity again I wouldn't do it. Did I enjoy the experience? No, but I did learn something.
