Quillmane spawn

[Jimjam]

How do you think the first iteration of quillmane (or any) mechanics came to eqemu originally?

I have no idea who was the first EMU to use the previous QM spawn. I played on all of Image/Devnoobs servers and this is how it was. It was like this on Red99 as far as I know as well.

Literally ONE person made a post where he found some information from like 2016 or something from the TLP. How are we even to know that person was right? According to the dev who made the spawn he is not 100% sure. He just said it is "probably" part of the spawn cycle of low level mobs.

It should have not been changed based off of one persons information which came from some random guy. Also it should not have been changed mid server cycle. I would be 100% fine with this mechanic showing up on the new "green" or teal server. The devs here will do what they want anyway.

TLDR I am crying about it because I don't like how it's hard for me to personally get a Peggi Cloak

Lol, have you matured past age 14?

Loads of things get fixed between servers. Staff thought this was a fix. If you have evidence of the correct (or closer to correct system) post it in bugs.


I don’t know why you think this is such a huge change that it needs an (unprecedented) wait to be implemented between servers.

Maybe I just think it is not a big deal due to my own experiences and biases. I got cloaks under the old system (which incidentally seemed waaaay easier than my live experiences and I’ve got wuillmanes and cloaked worh the new system. It really isn’t that big a deal. )

"It's tough to argue with a smart person, but it's impossible to argue with an idiot." The fact that the Quillmane change didn't change the # (except for the reduced drop rate %) of cloaks looted, but rather the # classes who could do it (yes I've heard ad nauseum about how anyone can) without even more frustration is just shameful. The posts about the reasoning behind the change is pure nonsense. That's the point. Quillmane is still a farmed entity no less than before. Lower output is purely due to the drop rate % only.

Lol I don't know why all the fuss...literally every character I make I level them up in SKarana and run into quillmane on them and get a cloak. That's not even trying to spawn the dam thing... people just want things instantly and not have to wait...EQ is just that, a waiting game.

My biggest gripe with this is that they changed it in the middle of nowhere based off of someone who read some forum post. If we are to follow this, then I can dig up any post from say 2002 and argue it should be this or that way. AC was never a 6 min static spawn in OOT but here we are.
