Can't AE the Chardoks, can't torpor shaman everything, can't easily hold high charmed pets, way more people would get AE'd... Would be pretty fantastic.
Should play red, red doesn't have this problem.

If an item you want being locked for a week by a group of people + several others not associated with the lockdown is causing enough distress to quit then coming back a few months into Velious is going to be a very rude awakening when we have closer to live server populations knowing where all the best and coolest stuff is and camping it as often as possible.

Corpsing is a non-issue already dealt with by camp hand-off rules preventing permacamping.

Ya, a non issue if everyone follows the rules and don't choose to use one of the many ways to easily exploit them.

Exploit what?

See guy camping MOB X, call him TOON A
TOON B is sitting ten feet behind him
"/t TOON A Hey man who's next?"
"/r TOON B is next"

Oh Look, it's handled, wait your turn and stop crying because you don't want to camp the mob because you would rather be somewhere else.

Some people will make a circle, get ring, check for MQ buyers or go hand in themself/get rapier/check on Hasten

If ten people from 3 or 4 different guilds make a circle and all start corpsing the rings are you guys going to come back with tinfoil hats and another conspiracy theory?

What about the people that don't corpse it but have a guildy/friend run a mule over to loot? Should we ban that too?

ya man you IF you think someone is trying to pull shenanigans you just have to sit next to them, wait for their rep to come, sit next to them and then take camp.. its an investment in time, but if you have a cross to bare you can definitely do something about it.

If waiting through 2 rare drops in order to get the camp is too much for you, then you just dont have the stamina to camp certain names on p99.. and also in like 2 weeks you can probably find someone that will put you on list, allow you to log on an alt and youll get the camp super easy anyway.

and bonus! if you wait next to them, you can finally roll that red toon you've always wanted to roll! :P

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic. I'll respond under the assumption that you're not. For one, there's more than one way to get around that rule. IE - A friend of theirs coming along to "see if it's camped", while the camper hands off the item. And I'm sure people would find other ways around it. Secondly, you shouldn't have to sit around long enough for that item to drop twice not even knowing whether or not you'll actually get the camp. Camps in EQ can take a long time, you shouldn't have to camp it twice or three times just because there's some douchebag cockblocking you.

what item? like AC ring? well thats easy, if u see ac, its gona drop a ring.. tranix? well hopefully they arnt looting mithral torqs & destroying them, just ask them to leave the one they have on them there.. and if they dont then you can assume they got the hat.

what like frenzied? yea.. maybe... there are like 5 10k item merbs out there, so when 1 is camped, then just move to another one, where senior jerk jerky jerk isnt there...

I agree that its a long camp to wait for 2 rare drops before you can get your chance at it.. but seriously 9/10 times people are COOL in game! and will put you on a list and you don't even have to sit there next to them... Hell i prefer if people DONT sit next to me when im camping something because chances are there is this MASSIVE RP drama going on in my head and sometimes i like to act it out in game with /emots and :things.. So im happy to take down an alts name and send them a tell when I'm done...

Its gona get cray in velious yes, and to get some of that stuff you know you want, you are going to have to figure out how to camp an item for at least 2 drops, maybe more.. you may find a camp with like 8 people in line literately standing there waiting for a camp.. shits cray, but that is how i got my Jboots off najina 15 years ago, by waiting in a virtual que for 25hrs.. so technically it is classic.

Im just trying to say that its not as bad as it is in our heads, in reality... and it will be as bad as it is in our heads once velious is launched, but its not exactly a terrible thing.

I for one am getting by just fine, even though I wasnt here early enough to get a DE mask.. id LIKE a de mask, but then again, id also like super sonic jet that runs on perpetual motion.

Im just tryin to say its not as bad as it may seem to be, in reality.. on the server.. outside of forums [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

hell me and clark hate eachohter, jk I dont think we hate each other at all, but I argued with him about this for days and it turned out a-ok and #bluetopia is real.

Try other things besides banning people. It is not a people problem its a system problem. It is classic. You can't ban a bard if they are following the rules...a druid, a shaman. This small problem we have can be resolved in a different way than banning someone. I think its also a population issue and will go away once Velious comes out. Let's hope the rumors of a new server on the correct timeline are true and that should cut the population even further. Til then try harder to get along with others in the game, maybe set your mouse down walk outside and stop being part of the problem.

I am Phry.

I voted no.

This is why camping items in general sucks. Making money in EC much quicker and requires way less work [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Sitting at a camp waiting on 1 drop is for newbs. Sit in EC and you have a chance at any item in the game coming around to get your hands on [You must be logged in to view images.
