Ya great idea turn on item loot for sub 48 so I can farm cloth tunics off dumb blue players taking the easy road in my TOV geared level 30. Lucky me if I actually die (and I never will) everything is no drop.

This is why the server is dead btw. It's because I have had a level 30 paladin in TOV gear since 2017. There is no competing over anything when everyone has everything 3x over. Anyone who thinks they are "competing" for anything on red99 in 2022 is a complete loser.

Thats how it was on Rallos. One piece, any piece, besides weapon slots, bags cant be touched. Feel free to discuss alternative loot setups, maybe a 1min timer since the last time you got hit to bag stuff.
In early days of RZ weapon slots were fair game too. Halloween event was just ok... nothing spectacular. There were a few no drop pieces sprinkled around, but it wasn't a full set of gear.

Remember when noobs would hang around trying to get Shin gloves / greaves, basalt carapace, opoline helms? lol

Just make ALL items NO DROP. Make people earn every piece of gear the good old fashioned way & when they outgrow a piece, delete that shit.

I dont have TOV gear. I've been in school and grinding a shitty job before that. I didn't get to play much. I've never even crawled seb.

To me, the loser is the guy who beat the game and hates it, yet feels so empty inside that he can only resent people actually enjoying it. Find a new game or learn to bait a hook, something but fill the void. You can choose to be something else.

I was that newb during the event. I was level 11 or something and just ran around getting all the pieces, begging for ports. People would call the pieces in OOC. I think i was 6 by the end of the weekend but i got my pieces. Just died over and over clicking corpses. Halloween event is burned in my mind, not just ok. That funky red blue and yellow wiz robe. I felt like a fucking erudite Bootsy Collins. I still remember my wtf when i who'd EK and it showed 205 players. People dragging the AOE'ing Rathe undead dragon to the zone line, so many corpses. You could make bank in ek with all the scythes @ 10p a pop.

People dont get just how great EQ was back then, what did i play that was better with multiplayer 3d worlds before that? Tribes? Quake?

The thing is, i got 5 no drop pieces and it was mostly psychological. I had a bunch of pieces i couldnt lose and it helped me tough it out against twinks and play another year or so. Thats what i mean by make it Rallos, but better. With full sets of no drop then item loot is bearable and even enjoyable cuz its the twinks who have to risk something to get their ganks. Complete opposite of red launch where it was the casuals who got the shit end of the stick getting deleveled by zergs.

They could add the luclin noob quest armors which could be no drop and also really livened up the noob zones with tons of quest pieces.

I liked em a lot.

Or were they added in pop?

Those could be your base level no drop kit.

If you’re talking custom.
