There was a rant thread like this one on reddit and some druid posted his process for the SRO AC. He had it down to a science and with track/pet track and a few other tricks he claimed he pretty much couldn't be beat to it because it basically came down to reaction time. He had it dialed down so much he could find his pop direction within the second he popped.

I know someone who just left a ranger in sro and checked on the AC every 36mins and got a couple rings for all his alts in like 2 days so I'd assume if you git gud you'll get one eventually.

Thread is old as hell [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] but it's not even that Jboots are hard to buy or anything like that, it just makes someone question why the PNP allows this really. Like oh, this person is camping this item even though he has 30 of these items on his corpse nearby. Like how is it PNP to allow this? I'm pretty sure it's actually against the rules but not enforced really.

That being said I unfortunately haven't played P99 in a very long time (I still check the forums every now and then). Just wanted to say I met a gnome named Hasten on Warcraft and he was also an EQ player [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] kind of neat to meet EQ players in 2025. Dying breed so to speak.

Ouch I'm not sure how I didn't realize last reply was 8 months old.

Still relevant though, they're still doing it.

But MQs are legal so there's no real difference to be made between an AC ring or any other droppable item in the game. If you can hold drusella indefinitely and sell a gazillion urns I don't see why you couldn't do the same with the AC ring. I guess it isn't a /list camp you can do whatever especially considering a ton of people would rather just pay for an AC ring than do the camp.

I’m sure at somepoint there was a ruling giving preference to the player which didn’t have a corpsed ring? Not sure if it was just oot ac or what?

Only found this:

Quote:
Something else important to note about handing off camps - in particular, popular ones, but this applies to any camp that becomes contested. If you are solo camping, once you attain the item you were waiting for (an AC ring, for example) you are done camping that mob. The person coming to take the camp had better be prepared at this point in order to come eliminate the very next placeholder spawn in order to "stake his claim" on the mob. You cannot work wacky corpse lines on lore items in order to grab multiple items in the same "camp session" if there are others waiting to take the camp. Please be aware that we reserve the right to apply this same ruling to any camp if we deem it necessary, including camps with multiple players.
I guess you can always keep going if no one is in line or get back in line once you get your ring.

Correct; if there's no one else who wants AC (or any camp), none of the rules even come into play.

All of the above is just a clarification of the Play Nice Policies, and by default those policies let anyone kill any mob, any number of times ... unless it's kill stealing, camp stealing, zone disruption, harassment, etc. That quote from Derubael was just a clarification of the camping rules.

I believe I've heard of people petitioning someone for corpsing and continuing to kill AC and GMs giving the camp over as a result but as mentioned above it really just applies to camps that 1 person is there soloing the mob and someone else has to actually be there waiting to take over.

I've certainly stayed at camps that are considered contested after getting the named spawn/drop to get more, but there wasn't someone sitting right next to me waiting to take my spot.
