Bob's Perfect World- A wall of text regarding the raid scene on P99

[Nivar Quartz]

Dragon/God rotations are as classic as it gets, we had one on brell that worked pretty sporty till later expansions spread most guilds out pretty good.

1. Current raiding guilds apply to Gm to be added to list

2. Once on list, you have 24hrs after mob pop to kill said mob

3. You can get help from alliance guild/s to kill said mob, but you have to provide 70/30 ratio. So 40 TMO cant help 15 Div, if you cant bring the numbers your turn in skipped and the counsel will determine whether your guild should remain on the list.

4. Once your 24hrs is up, your back to the bottom of the list and the next guild is on the clock, and this counts as that guilds turn.

This would support a sense of teamwork between more guilds and deals could be struck for teeth ect when helping a few smaller guilds take their turns on bigger mobs like trak ect.

This would also take the poopsocking and need for 48hr trackers out of the process and mob windows and pop times would be posted for all counsel member to see and follow.

Of course there are other considerations that a strong guild counsel would guideline in advance, and present to Gms as said rules all are to follow.

This is just a crude example and I've seen a few floating around that would get a bit complicated and problems would arise in the language.

Last but not least, if 90% of guilds involved voted and agreed for this concept, there would be no reason for the server staff to not implement this as it takes 99% of Gm babysitting and grieving out of the equation

GMs just need to make a rotation sign up on the website and be done with it. Like others said, there could be rewards and penalties on whether or not you succeed or wipe.

If rotation is broke, then the guild that breaks it pays the consequence of being taken out of rotation for a time period or permanently. Just do it and end all of the whining.

That's not how EQ works! Preparation + time investment = rewards. In some situations skill will determine it, but pre-instancing(when did that start anyway, LDoN?) whoever knows boss timers and is the most prepared is most likely going to reap the rewards of EQ raiding.

Not classic though [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.][You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

What would the rules be on level 60 alt raid guilds? Would they be exempt or are they allowed to be on the rotation because all it will take is people leveling up/buying alts to have multiple armies/guilds and still be able to effectively make getting trakanon impossible still.

Plus, rotations are beyond dumb.

Is there a grievance for forum abuse?

Knowing boss timers is very classic sir! I still remember the threads on my guilds old forums where we all kept them updated. The thing there was that knowing the timers was a bigger advantage than it is here, because there weren't as many hardcore people hellbent on getting every mob 24/7 like we all are here. There we mainly kept track of the hardest mobs, and if we felt like doing anything else we just checked to see if they were up and if so killed them. =p

This is the normal response from the top/top2 guilds at the inception of a rotation, and common sense through a solid rotation counsel would most surely shun attempts for alt < Sudden new raiding guilds > from exploiting the system, people/guilds will try to buck the system at first, but with solid leadership and agendas left at the door it would work perfectly.
