whats the point of getting items on blue, you can kill all the bosses in velious with kunark items. Might aswell be playing barbie dress up island adventure because your pixels are useless.
This point comes up a lot and it's retarded; when plane of fear first opens, you can kill all the bosses without having any gear from plane of fear, therefor why ever go to plane of fear? You can beat the stuff there without already having any of the gear from it after all.

P99 being velious locked isn't an answer, btw, cause there was never a guarantee of even the first much less second expansion and beyond.

When X condition occurs, your accomplishments in everquest no longer matter. Before that though, they totally matter!

I had this clarified to me by a GM a few months ago. Camp claim requires the following:

- Maintain a constant presence.

GM also said that if you have partially cleared a camp, and then another group comes down and finishes clearing before you - they have rights to the camp.

So you can't just look at a camp and then tell everyone else stay away because you saw it first. Gotta do the work first to claim it.
I had "good guys" report me for "taking their camp" by killing a mob that was up for 10 minutes. The room was packed, the hallway packed, and they were in another room!

They even gave me a "Do you know who I am?"

In my opinion, this rule is wrong. A camp has to be started somehow. This is ridiculous if you believe this is ok and within "play nice policy". I sincerely hope next time you start a camp a full group comes in and clears the rest of it and claims it. Karma is a bitch.
I know this thread just got necroed but I didn't notice this post before and this is correct.

RNG guarantees you cannot have every single mob in a camp down immediately upon spawn 100% of the time if it's even remotely a challenging camp. This would be a totally ridiculous standard to require of people and a nightmare for gms to enforce.

I think a sensible rule is: If a camp contains say 10 mobs, you have to clear them and be able to kill the first respawn within a couple minutes of it spawning. If you can't maintain that rough schedule and somebody more capable wants the camp, you should move on.

But rabid hyper focusing on whether somebody is perfectly min\maxing a camp so you can slip in and snipe it when they fumble for two seconds is retarded.

Ultimately … if people just behaved like adults this wouldn’t be a problem. Game is 24 years old and this box ain’t that much younger. If someone’s claiming to try and do a thing … just move along and let them have some fun. Those mobs/camps aren’t going anywhere.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

I mean personally with the "rules" the gm's have laid out it is entirely illegal to "kite" whatever you want, into whoever you want, and take whatever you want.
As long as youre a bard. So the new meta is to just make a bard and train whoever is in your way.
