Complying with the classic timeline is the entire goal of the server. Is it necessary that we state the obvious and append this statement to the end of every line in the changelog?

Of course not. However, it would seem that when a particular change results in a bunch of people being confused and having trouble finding a source as to whether it was for purposes of complying w/ classic timeline, it would not be unreasonable to ask.

Especially when there were two dev posts on the subject before the source was finally identified and neither identified the reason for the change. In fact, your original post in this thread could have reasonably been interpreted to imply the change was made because mages were "overpowered".

If the reason for the change had been "obvious", as you suggested in your response, there wouldn't have been numerous mages, myself included, wondering why it was made.

Thanks.

if you go through the LOS archives, they killed trak almost like clockwork every 3 days as well for a few months.

TR is already going to be the first guild into VP. Relax dude.

Trak IS a 3 day spawn.

From http://www.thesteelwarrior.org/forum...hread.php?t=21



Kunark:

Trakanon, level 65, instant, 3 day respawn, Old Sebilis
Venril Sathir, level 58, 10 hr spawn, 3 day respawn, Karnor's Castle
Talendor, level 60, <24 hr spawn, 3 day respawn, Skyfire

Cool post from 2003. Might not hold water.

Lets say you go and look at all of Afterlife's raids against Trakanon, and roughly gauge the times between the kills, you'll get 38 kills in about 170 days, which is a kill every 4.5 days- there's literally no way he could've been a 7 day spawn even with patches at that point.

38 kills from 06/25/2000 to 12/04/2000, that's 38 kills in 162 days, at very minimum that's a kill every 4.263 days, it's literally mathematically impossible for it not to have been a 3 day spawn.

There's even three dead periods of no Trak kills spaced 14, 11, and 12d apart. The average still says they killed him every 4.263 days.

Here was my rough estimation of time inbetween Trak kills as reported by Afterlife's DKP site; (You can check my data here; http://afterlifeguild.org/dkp.cgi?g=...ype&start=7700 )

Trak kills, days between; 5 6 3 5 3 4 4 4 1 2 1 7 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 14 2 11 1 5 4 5 5 8 4 5 4 7 1 2 12 3 1

Too bad so sad. Chain petting was extremely overpowered.

Rangers and Druids are underwhelming, so when is the fix!? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Wishful thinking...

"38 kills from 06/25/2000 to 12/04/2000"

Epics were in starting September, so this might not be the best range to use.

Also, please respond to the post where I asked you to respond to another post, which you still haven't responded to:

http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...&postcount=101

Specifically this part:

there's a VS spawn on May 10th, 14th, 18th, 22nd, 25th, and again another on the 25th (this is all in 2000). Would you look at this and seriously believe that VS was on a 3 day timer after reading that?

Consolidated trakanon 3 day info. Still have yet to find a single piece of evidence suggesting otherwise.
