Maybe I'm being naive, but it does seem like there is an outside chance they may decide to scrap the whole FTE idea, prior to Oakwynd's launch? 🤷‍♂️ Hard to ignore the dumpster fire that is about to occur.

That's awesome man. Looking forward to watching!

I don't even think they have to mirror Mischief. There are a ton of things they could do that would be very popular. Maybe just free trade, or just random loot, etc. Hot zones at launch. Decreased respawn timers. So many things, that would be very popular in my opinion, but instead they seem...

Yeah, but it was also Mischief and Thornblade, combined. Both still successful. Yelinak is fading pretty fast at this point. Yelinak might be helped by the lack of interest in Oakwynd though.

I tend to agree, but they don't seem to care much about what players want though.

Although, if you did it at launch, your next few toons would get the Memorial Day xp bonus too, so yeah, probably be a lot faster.

Would it though? Granted the bonuses and passing gear to the next toons would help a lot, but you would not be ahead of the pack anymore, in terms of dealing with other players in camps. Be interesting to see. I'd love to watch it.

Totally agree. They should cut respawn timers on all rare and raid mobs in half, at a minimum.

🤦‍♂️

Cohh's recent stream, gives me a small glimmer of hope, that this thing might actually launch one day. Let's get this thing in alpha. I pledged for alpha access in May of 2017. 6 years ago. lol

Q: Will this prevent assisting/helping other players? A: No. If a player would like assistance from someone outside their group or raid, they can target the NPC and use /yell. This will semi-unlock the NPC and allow anyone to attack it. Once unlocked using /yell, the NPC cannot be locked again...

Q: Will the Encounter Locking apply to all NPCs, or will there be exceptions? A: There will be exceptions and some NPCs will be excluded from the Encounter Locking feature due to them requiring cooperation amongst different people or being part of events that wouldn’t be completable if the NPCs...

https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/oakwynd-information-and-faq.290122/ Some interesting changes, but still nothing that would make me want to play it.

I always liked watching Bobbybick too.

Doesn't really have anything to do with when the server launches. I'm talking about all the legitimate issues and concerns raised about the FTE mechanics and their failure to respond to any of them to date.

Been over a week since they announced the server ruleset without any response, or comment, from DBG. Pretty shitty way to treat their players. Par for the course I guess, but god damn...

Without Regret did on Yelinak all the way until Ldon. Was fun.

It does seem pretty clear that they REALLY want to try this encounter locking on a TLP, in order to test it for live. Also seems clear that they are only releasing one TLP this year, because they were concerned that no one would choose this, given any alternative. Doesn't bode well for the...

Man, people are blowing up the official forums and discord. Almost all negative. At least DPG is starting to respond a bit. Especially in Discord. Seems like they know they have a full blown dumpster fire on their hands. They're merging and removing all kinds of threads. How the hell...

Yeah, that sucks too! One bad idea after another on this one...

Pretty much agree with this...

Who's is excited to play this? Who are they catering to? I don't get it.

Nothing that really excites me.

Not me.

I'd just like to state for the record... Jasper and Jasker are two different people. I have nothing to do with the simulation theory. :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Life is a struggle...

Jasker ;)

Sounds like you need some professional help man. Hang in there.

I did kinda wonder what he was talking about, but just assumed he was trying to creatively insult me, or some shit. 🤷‍♂️

Ummm, I don't really have a guy. I thought that was kinda obvious, no?

My guy, would kick your guys ass!

My guy said details in early April and it will be an experimental server.

Revamped zones certainly seems like one possibility. Seems like if they did that, it would be limited to a few raid zones / encounters though.

Got it. I remember I kept seeing memes of this lovely lady on here, not that long ago... Google cleared that one up pretty quick.

I'm lost... What's the origin behind all the Pert shampoo memes?

Someone posted this on the official forums... "Heard atabishi has already told a few people the ruleset in preparation and is coming back after years hiatus for it. If true makes me think there is some race aspect to it."

Yeah, the more I think about the whole thing, the more clueless I am. Hopefully it's solid and something I will enjoy playing. Sucks having to wait until April though. I hate when people tease shit. Always feels super gimmicky. Just fucking tell us! I'm sure they have their reasons, but...
