One of my pals on Lockjaw (Not in our guild though) was already talking about buying a bunch of cheap computers so he could 12-18 box.

If you know of a great guide already you should post it here to save us from finding out they suck the hard way.

Tenks how is yours setup? What are you using for controls etc? Did you add or modify anything or just use a Raspberry Pi and plug in some controllers?

My roommate and I are going to start building an aracde esque setup in our place. We were originally looking at doing an arcade table but it seems so impractical to have the screen in the table and then you've got to stand up and stare downward whenever you want to play it. Either way, we got...

Same for us. We'd tank it to the 30's then it turned into just rezzimg tanks to get one rounded while pets finished her up. Later kills would be purely pet walled.

Only four guilds will ever get to say they killed pre nerf bees. Not a bad accomplishment!

Flux, did Apok ever clear revamped Bees or Efreeti Cycle?

It's amazing to see a Mistwalker go for so few krono. There are only four on Lockjaw at the moment. Bloodfires on the other hand... I wouldn't give you 8 krono for that shit..

All forms of boxing are far more common now. Almost everyone in my guild boxes, I now have 20 level 50 characters myself. EQ hasn't changed to cause this, it's just because of krono. I can camp Efreeti for a day or two and make enough plat to keep a 12 box subbed for a month on Krono. On...

I don't think enforced no boxing would result in no socks. People will just always resort to socking, even when it's obviously self destructive long term.

FiF requires GM intervention at almost every raid encounter. Also people will come to a mob, lose it and NEVER LEAVE until the next spawn to ensure they have FiF. Guess who did that last time?

They actually found the laziest way to punish players... They're letting other players vote on the punishment. This is not real life.

DBG has a pretty predictable formula. They identify the loudest/angriest group of players and then provide that group with "We can't do anything" for a few weeks before finally providing them with whatever ends up being the laziest "solution" they can think of. I'm kind of wondering, what...

Dude that's actually the reality on Lockjaw right now. I'd say troll for sure if this was anything but EQ. This game is a magnet for deluded people to come together in big groups where they can go full retard.

I'm at work so I can't do it but someone please archive that thing.

Wow, get in on this thread before it gets deleted. It's golden. Daybreak Remove FFA on Both Servers

The other day AD wiped to Inny with 77 people for two hours. We came in and scooped it up. MM had like 22 deaths on their last Nagafen kill. You'd think these guilds would want more FFA days so they could at least blame us for taking the mobs rather than having to face their own incompetence for...

The problem you outline is instantly solved by having a set % of FFA. It's why our original rotation had 50% FFA mobs, no matter how many guilds joined the rotation the people capable of breaking it would have no incentive to do so. The issue was with DBG enforcing rotations the other guilds...

Player run rotations are infinitely better because a group of players can say "No, fuck you. That rule is ridiculous" and if people are shitting up a server we can say "No, fuck you. You're out of the rotation." DBG enforcing rotations allows inane and counter-intuitive rules to exist and it...

Is this real life?

Benefits of being the first Shaman and first Paladin to 50 on this server lol.

With buffs the results could be significant. It could be the difference between being able to kill Trakanon at level 50 (day 1) or having to wait until nearly 60. But yeah ultimately server firsts are what you really care about, especially on mobs that act as raid zone bottlenecks.

Yeah but our "competition" wouldn't be bridging the gear gap in the meantime, and they would still have to compete with us for those mobs.

Dima had claimed to me that he "crushed TL off the server". The way I always interpreted it was that when the GoD vote failed a lot of people got bored and left (all guilds). This hurt TL the most because it had been in Time the longest, and thus would suffer from boredom the quickest. After...

Dima's new rotation draft is literally the Apok rotation. Except with the additional retarded rule "Anti-poopsock measures: 30 minute frame to prepare and engage any FFA targets. FFA targets are announced and coordinated. " Lockjaw Server Rotations - Google Sheets

This would be awesome for sure.

The intentions that had back then are one thing, but the current design team has said a few times now that they want to preserve the competitive atmosphere and are opposed to instancing content even if they had the resources to do so. Also, everyone knew how it was going to be coming into the...

You don't get to define what meaning players derive from their playtime. I'm sure for some it's about loot. For me and most of my friends it's about the thrill of the race. We've given loot to like four guilds on our rotation after winning a race. Yeah we're not handing out CoF's or anything but...

They'd get on via Yael or Draco.

They're seriously campaigning for a rotation with NO FFA on Lockjaw right now...

Yeah, Monks with epic fists are going to be insane. Also did you guys catch the /q fix? No more instant quits. I need to look at some parses but I think in a DPS race scenario Wizards will still be dominant for Classic, no idea what Monks will look like with Innerflame + Epic at 60 now though.

Remember people were pet walling raid content early on TLP 2.0 which was pre 2015 Pet Buffs. I.e. people will still be able to pet wall content. Having it reduce the resists of pets is pointless too because people exploit walls to fight Vox/Nagafen so AE's aren't even a factor and on Draco/Bee...

The only guild that relied on pets for standard mobs has since absorbed three guilds (I think ). Combined with lower raid mob melee dmg I'm confident they can do it. This is a non factor. The sky changes are all we should care about. Oh and I guess no one will mage wall Trak on day one so...

MM member on TLP forums already crying about the rotation Darth proposed. Claims that by stepping out of rotation entirely we are giving ourselves 50% of mobs...

They can't go casual. Their existence is predicated on them one day being the top guild. If they go casual they bleed members and if they go FFA they don't get enough mobs.

I'm not technically leading it but otherwise it's the true Faceless. The Sleeper thing was an offshoot an old member wanted to do, and none of the core Faceless guys played there. Yeah Darth made that one. For those reading it says casual guilds get a rotation and guilds that want to be...

Flux bro, do you know what forums you're posting on? This isn't going to get any better for you and it's only going to make otherwise neutral people think your guild is full of retards (which is quickly becoming the consensus here). If you want to fight this fight you should find a better venue...

Detheb is in their guild on Fippy. He can probably get him here.

His crew started the SK wars on Fippy and pushed for rotations every expansion until GM's enforced them in mid Velious too. So from what I've seen this just fits the M.O.

We're probably about to get fucked on the rotation here. We originally had 50% of targets FFA, one hour to engage, with a wipe also meaning FFA. Now it's 2 hours, wipe as many times as you'd like and like 33% FFA. It's not great but it had just enough competition to be fun and allowed us time to...
