The real question is will he still be on the server in say three weeks time when other guilds are ready to try taking him on? If so then I'm not complaining.

Yeah, it was given out at Mayong GM events when they managed to kill him I believe.

Almost any boss mob in EQ can be killed with low numbers, the right people and the right gear. You don't need to zerg to win, and in many cases it's detrimental.

2 Nag kills now, and PoA/PoH were closed down shortly after we entered them. They were open due to miscommunication between GMs on whether they should be open I think, and Nilbog eventually made the final call and they were closed.

So maybe 1 person per server had them on live if they were GM events. Was ours a GM event, or is he a normal boss? If he's a normal boss, that's way too good to be in classic.

Might as well just open the planes up already since people are already getting gear better then that (even if it's just 1 dagger atm) and some even have planes gear.

He was in live but as far as I know the first thing patched out. He was never killed as a spawn NPC, and ~one dagger per server thing is probably correct.

Since there is one dagger floating around he should probably now be patched out. I think it's totally cool that he was in game and one dagger is not server breaking, but it's certainly not something that you want to be farmed.

Wait, quick sidenote, so the planes aren't in yet but some people have been able to raid them somehow? How is that possible\allowed?

Not trying to stir shit up, honestly, but it seems like if that's the case it would violate some pretty fundamental rules of fairness, and is the kind of thing that always ruins emu servers. If I don't have my information correct here I apologize and please disregard this. I really like the server so far and I'm just hoping there is basic oversight in place.

Drama, and accusations of favoritism...even on an emu server of 300 people.

Speaks to human nature, eh? No matter how small the island, we'll always have a lord of the flies.

Not accusing anyone of favoritism, I literally just read "open the planes up, some people already have planes gear" (to paraphrase) and am curious as to the story behind that (I'm fairly new to the server).

This server is a blast, never been so excited to play on any other emu server.

Now for those that complain about fairness and favoritism, IMO if your not 45+ don't worry about it... its just like a live server if you don't progress with the server you miss out, one day you get there if its when IB is raiding ToV and your still farming Pofear/hate/air so be it. that is the nature of the beast, lead follow or the the F out of the way.

I can't play 8+hours a day so I know I'm not going to be there for the first kill of anything anytime soon, But I'm not going to QQ about some one else doing it if they put in the time. I'm not worried about missing out on anything until the devs give us a time line for the next progression step.

I don't have anything against you Pyrocat, but when you say the right people and the right gear... There were illegal characters at your first Nagafen kill. None of you have the right gear to do it legitimately. I'd be willing to bet I have more FR than anyone in your guild aside from your magicians. As far as zerging to win... You will need to zerg to win to down any real boss (i.e. Innorruuk, Cazic-Thule). The fact is, a lot of mobs here aren't an accurate representation of their live counterparts. In regards to PoA/PoH being open and then closed, anyone that obtained gear from that should have it taken away because it shouldn't exist at this point. Even if the advantages gained from having said gear is minute, it should not be allowed. My Solusek Ro quested Shovel of Ponz was removed two weeks after the server was launched because it was not supposed to be open (due to a communication problem between GMs/programmers). Regulations and enforcements should be parallel across the board. That shouldn't even be an issue but for some reason it is. Regardless, we are all mature adults (for the most part) and none of this should even be a topic of discussion. At this time I think everyone needs to just play the game and enjoy it for what it is. Every type of system will have a perceived level of unfairness, people should know that by now.

I really doubt this will happen. You may get an occasional fun run group to classic planes but I don't see them being farmed if you can go to Kunark.
