12 Avatars
12 mobs on 1 spawn timer = 1 mob (in terms of access)
so it`s 2 contested mobs tops at any given time, even easier to lock down

Once a top guild gets a mob in EQ2 on farm status its damn near impossible to get a crack at it.
One of the things Vangaurd got right.

In those terms you are correct. But what Alesis and others have been going on about is how the Dev's put in less which is false. Spawning system aside the Dev's actually created more encounters in RoK not less.

Regarding the spawning system, want to give more people access then lobby to put them all on their own timers. Allow multiple avatars to spawn and be up at the same time. With 12 of them it'd be very hard for a single guild to lock them all down.


BTW -

If we say on average there are 3-4 guilds on per server clearing all instance content and they average 40-50 members. That's only 120-200 people per server that are supposedly missing out on content. Not the 99% of the player base that certain people keep trying to claim.

For very last fucking time: Nobody knows when contested spawns, in any given period of time there is a chance of spawn, and after spawn everybody has equal chances to try it. If you farm instance in that time and don`t want to leave it`s your fucking choise to do so.

Now tell me what part of this simple text you don`t understand?
If you think that when Avatar X spawns a time X = everyone gets a fair shot, your fucking delusional son. How many pulls does it take for a good raid guild to refine the strat no an Avatar? I know, I know, youll say something like 3 tops, but for those of us mere mortals, its alot more than that. Avatars dont live that long.

Guild X gets how many pulls before Hardcore guild "The Dominat0rs" shows up and kills it? You can sit here all day and claim we all got a fair chance at it, and Ill tell you to your face your a delusional fucking liar.
You can pretend all you want, it doesnt make it reality.

Hi genius, you still didn't read any of the postings.
Also, the argument isn't about what SoE is doing, but why contesteds should be bothered with.
Furthermore, 1% of 1% is not 0.001%. Might want to have your secretary proof-read better.
You have been dominaz0red - since you like that word so much.

The cake analogy is quite adequate though. If you don't grab a plate and try to grab a piece, you will starve. No matter how many cakes there are.

And yet there are multiple guilds that went out and did get avatar kills away from "The Dominat0rs" on several servers

Im sorry i didnt use the exact same terminology to describe the super minority that is the top 1 or 2 guilds per server. Your ability to bypass the point of the post, and instead take a trivial detail and try to make it the point, is noted.
You sir, have spanked me, and i kneel before you humbly in reverance of your incredible debate skills, and deductive logic.
