Translation: I post 125 times per day, yet I don’t understand the stated goal of this nonprofit project, how long software development takes, or how many volunteers are willing and able to make drastic changes to this game.

This, all these people talking about rooting dragons and other non-classic changes just need to move on back to agnarr if you are not happy. This is P99 and this is classic.

Pulling NTOV dragons to zone in as unclassic as it gets. Rooting would at least provide for a (more) classic experience of raiding NToV.

I too have a lot of demands for volunteer software developers, working on their hobby for no pay.

And you need AAs. They encourage playing your Main rather than rolling 10 Alts.
I could have sworn Aaryonar was rooted? Seem to remember him as the gatekeeper to NToV. On Torv server I believe he was the 'qualification mob' to get in on any kind of NToV agreement.

In regards to AA's and Luclin, please... this is an end at Velious project, the only way that ever happens is if Nilbog hands the project over to someone else with a vision of Luclin / PoP or further when he dies in 50 years, at which point this really shouldn't be called Project 1999 anymore. If I understand it correctly they nuked out a lot of the AA coding and putting it back in is a massive overhaul.

I think permarooting them dragons is good to get that classic experience, but I think some pulls to better fight areas nearby is fine. Also would negate any pushing which may make some fights lame. Would like something such as call of the zero on the mobs to prevent train pulling, even random chance of call of the zero on trash. Would say something like delay summon on initial agro by something like 10-20 seconds to allow for some minor pulling / splitting, then let the summoning begin.

I completely agree that train mechanics are allowing the lockdown of these mobs. Make a decree Sirken, it will self-regulate if you do not allow zone-line pulls. It still forces people to compete and put in work, but in the end poopsockers will make player made agreements because they don't want to crawl for 3 hours at 2am when a mob pops, and don't want a chance of dragons popping during vulak window.

Riddle me this. If these dragons should be perma rooted why does Vulak call all Lords/Ladies to his aid? Hmmmmmmm

The three black Drakes in Vulak's ring death touch anyone who travels halfway down the bridge if the lords are up. If the lords are not up entering Vulak's room triggers the first of a 17 wave event, culminating in Vulak Aerr spawning permarooted in the center of his ring.

He never calls the other dragons. He just doesn't show his face until you've defeated them all and you have bested the 16 preceding waves involving things like 2-3 Flurries Drakes, 5 Destroyer Drakes, 2 wurm + 3 drake combinations, 22 splitter Drakes, 5 carrion waves spawning death adds for each PC and pet death, 4 mini bosses, random waves, etc.
