Can it be mandatory that any Aftermath player has to post an IRL pic before posting

How many of you would log in the middle of the night for a potential 2 hr coth / crawl with added likelihood for corpse recovery / summoning?

If zone line pulling was outlawed you would have some form of guild sharing / rotation. Without it, keeping a clean Vulak window would be difficult.

Uber guilds burnt out in freaking Velious from crawling ToV, hopefully this will prevent folks from a convenient raid schedule that lets them wake up, push auto attack, loot and go to bed.

This would probably prevent more petitions as well since you arent training a ton of mobs over the zone and accidentally transferring agro.

Truth and Classic, let it be so.

I agree 100%. Braknar said his problem with ToV was he hates having to deal with the petitions that happen when people pull dragons on top of each other to zoneline and train each other. His solution of 'full ToV rotation' is the weirdest overreaction I've ever seen to that problem. Just leash the bosses to their spawn or make them summon at 100% health, or make a rule that says absolutely no training in ToV. Problem solved, and the 'LEGENDS' of the server still get to have their video-game olympics.

Just because the game wasn't played a certain way back in 99 doesn't make it any less valid of a way to play now.

The fact that the people crying about p99 being the last holy bastion of raid competition are also the ones who cry at the idea of having to actually put in effort for their pixels tells me the cries for competition are total BS. You're lying to yourselves and to everyone else. If you wanted competition you wouldn't be afraid of crawling to dragons. What you actually want is effortless and exclusive loot.

I hope you all get your wish they root the dragons so everyone gets to see the "difficulty" of sitting around medding for 10 mins after every glimmer.

Damn dude think of all the clutch plays of pressing sit the fastest and then afking.

Its debatable if you could even do these zone line pulls in 2001. Pathing was not as good then, and mechanics that were in place (such as proximity agro) are not in place on P99.

It's more of an issue of you actually couldn't do things like this back in the day, and this server seeks to emulate that period of time.

Rooting the dragons wouldn't be as bad as people say. You would COTH up to a target. Yea there would be some trash clearing but nothing like a full crawl would be.

The issues then are
A) The dragons that CH such as Gozzrem, Jorlleag would be unkillable
B) Dragons with really strong non-classic AOE potentially not having a spot to avoid that AOE damage within heal range, potentially unkillable

[kotton05]

A) manadrain
B) spawn more overlords

[tylercanuck]

Manadrain was tested on Gozzrem. It CH'ed 6 times. It's broken.
