Lol your asking someone to keep it civil on EQ 2 flames...I think that goes against the site rules...

Yeah, keeping it civil wouldn't qualify as EQ2Flames endgame content.

I think of endgame content as all the eof raid zones. I don't really have a burning desire to kill the avatars. Basically because i can SEE the avatars without a raid force, and I can also watch other guilds take shots at them. But zones like EH, which is the ultimate raid zone to me, well you need a decent raid force to even go in and look around. But there's a whole other discussion about what qualifies as 'doing' the endgame content. I mean, I've been into EH twice and we killed sarik the fang both times and spent the rest of our time wiping to the prince or the rumbler. Thats kinda borderline 'doing', at best. I've also been into TNT a number times in trash runs. Trash only runs because we can't get to the first named.

I suspect everyone's definition will be different depending on what they actually do. If this weren't on the mistmoore forum, you'd probably even get a lot of people who say pvp is THE endgame experience.

Lol, from what I have heard the contested encounters are much harder than EH. Endgame content imo is based off the difficulty of the mob for example end game content before EoF was basically Princes, MO, Cheldrak, and Matron. Once Mischief is down its gonna be interesting to see what a lot of people define end game content as, considering that encounter seems to be by far the hardest. This is all pending on if SoE nerfs it like they do every mobs that has promise.

Well Mischief is really, really tough, in a different way then anything seems to have been before. Spending hours swiping on it, gathering information, it seems like something in the encounter isn't working just right. Whether it is or not, I guess only the Devs know. If it changes, I'll believe it wasn't functioning as intended as opposed to being "nerfed." Either way, it's nice that they added an encounter that couldn't be learned and squashed so quickly.

I'm sorry, but I agree with "toughest encounters = endgame". Currently contested are the toughest encounters. FTH and MMIS are a joke ... EH now that its persistnat is nerfed to hell imho. TTR is tough and more of a pain than anything, but not so much tough as time consuming. NOTHING gets your heart rate pumping like a 10-15 min contested fight where everyone has to be on the ball. That's what I consider endgame.

Disclaimer ... high end != end game

I consider EoF zones and lesser contested to be high end ... but not end game.
