Raid kill flags? - Page 2

Looks like my wishes were answered, however they went from extremely annoying flagging system to an almost non-existent flagging system next update.

Sony seems to have trouble finding that middle ground with things. Only one person has to be flagged for T3? lol I bet sometime within the next 3 updates, Nexona and Druushk will also be nerfed down to a level where pickup raids may be able to beat them

don't expect that until the next expansion. I hate the idea of flagging all together, so I'm all for the update.

Flagging is not bad in theory but unless it's well thought out, it can be extremely annoying and tedious, like RoK's flagging system.

Oops, adding to that.

That being said though, i'd rather see a different system based on gear and ability. Like anyone can zone into VP, but without gear from earlier tiers, they don't have a shot in hell at doing anything. And in order to get the gear to help in VP, they need to get gear from earlier tiered raid zones, and so on and so forth, etc.

Too bad this isn't possible with EQ2's combat system.

Yea, I actually recently made a post about that in the 'Has Sony Ruined EQ2' thread talking about how they need to fix the combat system badly.

Of course they won't though

The whole idea of Flagging is in and of itself a byproduct of poorly made content.

If progression worked the way it was suppose to...ie things get harder as you get better and more fully geared then flagging is a completely useless idea. For some reason SOE cant get it right. In actuality im not sure why people even care at all especially with SoH already out, which is completely tierless with better loot than VP. Which is why you wont see any raiders complaining, b/c well its a moot point, they already have given the cow away for free.

The only positive I can see with flagging is for the people who get butthurt people gear up alts or sell to the general public.
