I disagree. We were already promised that the GM's were looking very hard at repops months ago. FTE shouts were finally implemented, and I think simulated repops would take like 5 minutes to implement.

If we, as the players, actually get together and act like rational and considerate individuals, I think GM Grinch's heart might grow 3 sizes that day.

Yea man simulated repop days have been on the table for well over a year. Im not saying it wont happen, I'm just saying I don't think we can plan for it to.

Frieza on an earlier topic I mentioned a sort of incentive bonus to getting like 4 traks in a row = free Druushk/xygoz/pd kill but must sit next trak out, as just an example where if you are doing really well its like a bonus ontop where you wouldn't need to spend points to get that kill but also free's up a spawn for another guild to get.

Its not a well thought out idea yet I keep bouncing these thoughts around. Could do it with like Taken getting inny really commiting their entire force there, if they do that after 3 or so kills they get a free shot at another same tier target or higher tier target, thus freeing up Inny in this case for another guild to possibly get it for one spawn. (still an idea im working on)

I said what someone else said, so I don't need to say it.

Should have left it anyhow.

Do you think if you drew a treatise. Ratified by guild leaders with the requested changes ...they would not listen if it keeps GMS out of the loot business?

Hundreds of things about this server aren't classic. Classic rules can't fix non-classic problems.

Not even that. Nothing prevents people from working together either on live or now to achieve a voluntarily agreement for raiding.

I have the most unclassic approach to this problem, and although I'm sure it will be met with much hostility, it is something to consider:


Add an NPC in east commons that sells raid lottery tickets. 1000pp each or something. When a raid mob spawns, it will announce the winning number and whoever holds the ticket can raid the mob with their guild or players of their choice. If they do not engage within 1 hour, the next number is chosen.

Not only will it allow a much larger variety of people to engage raid targets, it will slowly remove platinum from the server- combating inflation and excess platinum from exploits.

Possibly have the tickets mob based, to make for easier coding. Also, you could make VP , CT, and other top targets more expensive per ticket. Maybe 10k per VP dragon ticket.

Crazy? Maybe. But just imagine how much platinum this could remove and how much less of a hassle everything would be for the GMs

That's not going to work. Why would one of the harder/better mobs be given up for free, when that's precisely what people should be competing on. I'd like to see more simultaneous repops, no training, and maybe some sort of competition only mobs and competition/rotation every other spawn mobs.

Give every guild a weekly allowance (certain amount) let's say 100.

Give every raid target a value based on demand, let's say PD is valued at 50.

Any guild that takes out PD is now left with only 50 raid allowance.

Then just go from there. CT/Inny/VS/ could all be set at 30. VP dragons (except PD) could be 10s along with Kunark world dragons. Draco could be a 15. Vox/Naggy/maestro 10s.

DKP yo!

IDK, something like that could easily be tracked and gives some weekly planning by each guild.

While I like the idea it is easily exploited. People could form secondary guilds with alts for a new 100 point cap to burn through

Could easily do that with a rotation or any other system.
