I thought you had to be pretty close to the level of the mob to get on the list and loot the item. Or did that pre-launch proposal not end up getting implemented?

Your solution is terrible because it goes against everything this server stands for, which is a classic remake. my pvp idea is also a terrible idea because the same issue its not classic. would you rather have 1 guild farming it 24/7 and you have no chance? stop crying its so pathetic.

A true classic remake would not allow people the foresight to know what items were going to be removed and when.

The better fix for a classic experience would’ve been to throw Manastone on a different named mob.

How many people would find the Manastone if they’d put it on a named Spiroc in OOT or on a named in Cazic Thule, etc.

People knowing where items drop is far more important than when it’s being removed.

Regardless I think the unclassic drop rate needs to be removed which should help with the listing issues. Also set the list limitation to one per lifetime. If people want to grind 35 halfling warriors to get more Manastones fine.

Lol that would've been great if they just randomly switched up the mobs that drop things

Manastone camp is NOT working perfectly. They even looked up evidence to prove that their spawn rates and drop rates were wrong. And yet, they haven't changed a thing.

Think what we’re seeing is just because you can do something, like create “classic” Everquest doesn’t mean you should attempt it. Did the devs not see Jurassic park?
