Totally didn't predict this one. And guess what? Even if the items are nodrop, that guy is still going to monopolize the camp so people still have to pay him to get it.
This is already common in EQ TLPs with the Plane of Fear. Again, 30 years of game experience and metagaming means that Necromancers can solo in there with little risk then sit around selling loot rights to no drop class armor for Krono. This happens consistently.

No reason to think it won't happen here if they don't engineer it out of the game.

Yup. But people got all butthurt when this was pointed out as something the devs needed to address in MnM. Oh well. Hopefully they can work it out before they do whatever they are calling it when they start charging money.

Its looking like Adrullan Online Adventures is gonna be the game for me. I am all for some grinding, but dragging my balls across glass just because "old school" is just not appealing. Tedium isn't gameplay. Time sinks are one thing, but we don't have to keep reinventing the wheel in 2026. There is a ton of room between OG EQ and WoW. Watching these devs make the same mistakes that EQ made and saying "that feels right" is kinda crazy. Enjoy I guess.
