High level toons farming for plat in lower level xp area

This is one of the things that motivates me to level toons. So i can actually farm MOAR STUFF

Lower level characters should always yield to higher-level and more established players. These players have been on the server longer and are directly responsible for the success of the server and the proliferation and availability of loot to lower-level toons. Honestly, there should be a movement to empower those who maintain the server economy instead of promoting pixel welfare and easy-mode EQ.

I hope you're joking. That kind of attitude will prevent new people from wanting to invest hundreds or thousands of hours into an MMO game that is nearly two decades old. Elitism is strong here.

Availability of loot? That mostly they can't afford until their Main is maxed? Damn I got Triggered.

Totally worth it.

Yeah there are quite a few here that make it their mission to get folks riled up. You'll learn who they are, since most of the time they want to see the reactions to their controversial posts. It's entertaining to them, and hell, even me as well sometimes. It's called ForumQuest for a reason.

But I'll bite and take it up a notch. All players that kill non-experience giving mobs in the game should be banned on the first kill. Shit's classic.

I hope others see the the irony/hypocrisy of this post. =D

If you are suggesting that there is a highly vocal minority of players, most of whom do not even play P99 anymore, that highjack these boards/threads to further their own nefarious ends of internet trolling....well I would FITE IRL someone who made that type of claim.

'Availability of loot'. To be honest, on live people would be using absolutely rubbish weapons and might not see things like Green Jade Broadswords till their 40s.

On p99, spend levels 1-4 killing skeletons, bears and spiders and you'll have that before level 5.

Once you surpass your 40s you can go out and earn your own loot without the need to buy it.

I'm roleplaying. A decayed skeleton killed my parents. Move along, kid.

I know there are zones with guards that high level toons like to farm for plat. Sometimes they are farming NPC's that are 20 levels below their level. My question is, should a player be able to farm those mobs that give them no or very very very little xp, when a lower level player could be farming for both at the same time?

They can and its not going to change, maybe just try talking with them - ask if you can have a guard spawn or 2?

I was once told by a level 55 shaman who was camping Oasis Spectres that "it's a money driven world my friend"
