Bread Questers - stop pulling quest npcs to the bridge!

[Triiz]

Put me down as wagering this quest will end up getting nerfed before the Chardok patch /end of Karana's plague if people are exploiting it pulling both NPC's to zonelines so players can get that much xp for no effort, plat, or real time investment.

Nah. It is just a group of adventurers making life easier for a baker and hungry manhorse. Or is it the other way around?

Annoying? It's literally turning a 4+ minute turn-in cycle into a 10-20 second turn-in cycle. It's saving a lot of time.

Yeah because 4 mins game time for awesome XP and plats is too hard? Give me a break dude. You should play WOW or some other modern MMO with that lazy attitude.

I outlined the problem when people do this exploit, aint repeating it.

If you can't handle running a toon for 4-5 mins for 5-15% XP per turn in depending on your level, you are hopeless.

It also removes any of the risk involved imo. Normaly the lowbies would have to traverse more of the zone and avoid higher lvl mobs.

The Centuar is a baker, the Innkeeper is short on bread ;D

Cost benefit analysis and risk management is a huge part of EQ, so people finding ways to shortcut quests are in fact playing the game correctly.

I'm sure the innkeeper and baker are very pleased that a business liason was able to arrange a common ground for them to meet on (the SK bridge) so they could optimise their contract negotiations/turn around.

More and more I find my initial emotional response is the wrong one for different circumstances.

This post here has enlightened me. I never thought of it from the perspective of the Centaur and the Innkeeper. My own lack of empathy saddens me.

Breadquesters, by all means help these two fellows out as best as you can! By all means, if they both are too stupid to understand the logistics of their dilemma, feel free to force them into a better predicament so the bread can be run faster!

Breadqiest is the dumbest thing ever.

If you don't want to play Everquest, don't.
