Making this anything but FTE is dumb.
This, why even have an FTE message if it is intended to be a camp? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Server resets. Have you ever been to the hill when a server reset is announced? Usually 20 people all trying to log in first and attack him.

ya, I have a hard time believe this is a real thing. Either topgun is lying or sirken said something without checking with the developers.

Pained soul is a fast respawning mob, stormfeather is the exact opposite. No ph and skips and can take over 50 hours to spawn.

Pained soul doesn't roam either.

Lodizal, Stormfeather, Scout Charissa and Coldain Ring NPCs really shouldn't be campable. That makes only neckbeards who can sit at their screen for 20 hours at a time the people who can complete these quests.

FTE on this stuff with FTE/Player Grats messages. Players can come up with pleasant agreements they can work out.

Wow...

These are interesting times indeed...

I don't see how it's even comparable pained soul; there is no ph, it roams, it can skip a spawn, etc.

It may not require a raid, but it's spawn characteristics are similar to a raid mobs, and as such should be treated as such imo..

Anyone ever question why developers decided to make it 19 hours and skipable? Maybe the point was to NOT camp it.

Yep, but the original EQ developers understandably failed to take into consideration the sheer level of neckbeardery that would ensue 15 years later on an emulated trilogy server.

In my humble opinion, if P99 developers wanted to make Stormfeather/Lodizal truly classic encounters, they'd simply randomize their spawn locations spanning the entire zone.
