All this MQ flying around

[Swish]

Calabee, MQ self confessed RMTer extrordinaire shut me out of getting my parchment in Kaladim (for rogue epic) because he needed one for his MQ business. Thankfully Liia (further on in the quest) did step aside so there are good people out there still <3

I don't like rules, but there should certainly be something that guarantees that someone questing their own epic is ahead of the MQ tunnel fat cat crowd when it comes to gathering for a required item.

OP, you can farm anything you want.

Nothing is truly 'permacamped' and with the new camp rules, once a person gets their item they are after at a camp, they must give it up to the next person in line.

This doesn't really matter for people with jobs and long camps.

Ragefire or Yendar for example. Even though they got their Renux last kill, most people don't have the ability to be present 8 hours down the line.

This.

I have sold a few Rogue Epics over the past year, 2 or to guildies did one for my own rogue and then another 3-4 on forums. Never once have I stood next to an un epic'd rogue and tried to pick pocket Tani/Founy or have I turned into Eldreth or Yendar... I have once or twice against level 60 epic'd rogues doing the same thing as me though. Usually just before they arrived, or while they were AFK when the mob spawned.

Most people, I'd imagine, are like myself and will step aside if it's a real noob going for their epic. if it's a mob that drops other loots I want generally I'll let you grab an epic piece (Undertow and his wand or Phinigel and his wizard staff for example). Again, pretty typical of your run of the mill P99er.

There are a few out there like Calabee who are just douches though.

/cheer

I did step aside several times for non epic'ed rogues several times while it was time to pickpocket or turn-in. But like most said, if someone else is doing MQ aswell, then they can go fuck themselves.

With all the "classic" purist shoving things down people's throat, I am surprised the be ability to MQ is still available. I'm sure there is some technicality that allows it to exist on p99. Perhaps it was technically viable or was in the 1999 code or some shit. But no one ever did it, or done so rarely it was unknown to the majority. Classic experience eq doesn't include massive MQ.

well I am a classic purist and I love the ability to MQ.

Granted yes its a lil out of control here ( little being an understatement ) but the idea behind MQ was very sound and part of what made original classic EQ fun

it would be very painful to everyone if we had to complete quests in their entirety on the specific character that needed the reward

while some roleplayers enjoy that pain, many dont hence why MQs so popular and if you are against them then dont support the sellers !

i tried argueing this point. i even got an email from brad mcquaid saying level 10s running around with epics doesnt sound right. you wont win this one tho. its a classic bug they want to keep. also peoples livelyhoods depend on it and xmas is just around the corner.

same with recharging and everyone running around with a soulfire. people want ezmode classic eq. not sure why they just dont play live.

Eh to suggest it's a bug is a stretch.

It was just poorly thought out quest handling.

Something that was never ever changed on live. You can still get on 15 years later and MQ a Rogue Epic.

The only thing they did was change it so that when they started getting more sophisticated quests there were hidden flag checks starting in PoP.

To deviate from this would be ultimate CustomQuest.

That being said someone selling their 50th Epic MQ in a few months time is a problem. Let other people do their epics or a random few sell an epic MQ. Don't be a Calabee. We all know how that ends up (you have to be Canadian and French :/.)
