Default 16 hour window on 7day (& 3day) raid mobs is NOT FUN

Why? It forces only 2 kinds of guilds to be allowed to compete, those with thick enough neckbeards (aka no-lifers, retirees, unemployed), or zerg (able to field raid force at all hours). The rest of us cannot compete.

You thought Seal Team "Liked Competition (tm)"? Bullshit, they can't win a PHINNY race. The only reason they win 7day raid targets is because nobody else can possibly bear the 16 hour spawn window! GIVE US A FAIR SHOT TO COMPETE. YOU WILL SEE ACTUAL COMPETITION.

Rogean and Nilbog have ensured this end-game content is reserved for only the hardcore or the zerg. There is no other possible explanation for the 16 hour window.

We demand a 4 hour window (+/- 2 hours), or 8 day earthquakes (specifically so the window, whatever it may be, still exists, but there will also be a guaranteed spawn that moves the respawn 1 day every week), OR BOTH, ideally.

Don't even start with the "open raid". Once we start contesting those, you'll see it's really ST vs the entire Green server. IF YOU WANT COMPETITION, GET RID OF THE 16 HOUR WINDOW.

Welcome to classic. The windows might be different but the overall fact of one or two guilds monopolizing content isn’t anything new; the same thing happened back in the day.

Also, good luck with “demanding” people do what you want who spent hundreds of hours of their own free time to create a server that they pay for out of their own pocket so you can experience classic EQ again

  1. ST gets all 7-days? What?
  2. Only 2 guilds getting kills on raid targets? What?

Where do people get this misinformation from.

But yes, waiting 16 hours for something to randomly pop is pretty silly.

The Federation has gotten swept several times my friend. The zerg is trash, but sure, it's possible.

This isn't classic. Classic is 7 days, NO WINDOW.
