Need a 2nd guild about dem pixels

Yaw, bluebies win at everquest thats something i've learned, can't beat those pve encounters just to hard to stay focused for longer then 5 minutes if there isn't pvp going on

[Colgate]

nihilum already appeals to those who want pixels; they get basically every mob by zerging it

there aren't enough people who both want a pve focus and have integrity on this server for a 2nd pve oriented guild to work

What has been most shocking to me on this server is the unwillingness of people to shake things up. Right now with nihilum raiding 40+ deep, if you're a new app you have zero shot at any of the loot you'd be hoping for: PD loot, AoN etc., and you'll get all the loot you could've gotten anyway without having to raid. If instead these people would make their own guild of 24 people to compete, they'd ultimately get far more pixels, do so more with more excitement, and have thriving competition.

You know that is not true.

Any app once they become full member will get loaded with everything they want except maybe the 3-4 most rare items in the game. making their own guild would not hasten that process at all for many reasons.

This is why Nihilum is hard to beat when it comes to recruiting. The vast majority of the guild already has those items the new people want so we are able to funnel that gear much quicker then any new guild would be able to.

when velious comes out gonna be so much content

[heartbrand]

You can get all the rot loots you need in nihilum in under a month, and then you're basically on the six month wait list for the four items everyone wants. My point is that if people were more motivated, including nihilum vets who have no incentive to continue raiding, you could form a smaller guild and ultimately get more overall pixels.

The problem is not that red players can't PvE. Their too busy fucking eachother over to stay on top of YT/KDR and "I'm alpha" to follow a leader.

There's a ton of players out there who would be more than happy to join a guild and level and kill pixels so Nihilum isn't the only one. But than you have assholes griefing all those players off the box or encouraging them to join nihilum through, solo play, and outright ganking even though there's no challenge in it.

How many times has nihilum left PD up or nexona up or druushk up because of scheduling or what not? If you had a reliable dedicated crew of 24, you could kill those dragons and gear up far faster, and this will be especially true in velious where gear will be incredibly dispersed across a 200 person roster. There's a reason in MMO's guilds close recruitment, because having gear dispersed across too many people who can't use said gear to help advance the guild is ultimately detrimental. This hasn't been a huge issue in Kunark because the content is so easy, but will become an issue in velious.
