The idea that will save the server(for u fecal)

[heartbrand]

Apart from like a mob that pops @ 9am EST or something, Nihilum will still get 95% of all mobs because we can get 25+ people online within 2 minutes of a bat phone and be ported and buffed @ the target location in under 10 minutes. This would take azrael / victory algorithm / red dawn / classic / force w/e they're called this week close to 3 hours. All it will do is be an annoyance for everyone involved while fostering zero pvp. The mobs spawn in prime euro time on a weekend, if you can't contest that then wtf can you contest?

Maybe true, but that is down from 100% of the raid mobs.

The annoyance factor might result in larger guilds not killing lower priority targets.

Having all raid mobs slain in one day by a massive amount of people consequentially cock blocking the entire server is way too easy, and isn't classic.

We didn't realise the amount of neckbearding people were prepared to do in the beginning for an EMU - but this not classic change is what truly fosters 0 pvp.

There is no raid force rushing for Trak while the other is trying to bat phone get there and stop them. There is no sniping mobs quietly, there is a massive raid force showen up once a week and sayen sit down bitches we'll take everything - shit is not classic and not right.

[heartbrand]

it actually IS classic, this was the case on the vast majority of the live servers

to add to this, the top guild getting wind of a silent snipe and being able to log there other 30 alts at any given target....

Shits <Classic> l0l

We didn't realise Nihilum would show up for every dragon raid for years straight. It worked out OK at first, but Nihilum's gear advantage/tons of solid players/insane dedication it ruins the server.

These are the people who should get the loot. This isn't WOW where everyone is equal. EQ has always been a play the most, get the most game.

Variance is just dumb, its the reason why a lot of people on RED play on RED and no longer play on BLUE.

If you want a mob, come take it. That option is NOT ON BLUE.

So Variance has worked well on BLUE right. There are tons of guilds killing multiple raid targets right?

Oh wait... TMO gets 95% of raid targets still.

[Nirgon]

Ya variance is really good for people who can't track and log in on demand 24-7

Don't be dumb guys

You have a better chance if everything spawns at once on Sunday and you can snipe a thing or two while they're busy
