Gameplay

- The avatars now work the graveyard shift! They will only linger during the dead hours of AM to see what sort of competition they really have out for them.

Only tricky part is, non-hardcore raiders are not geared like hardcore raiders. I mean the avatars might be farmed but they are no joke to pretty much anyone in the game. I'll go out on a limb and say, if you are not clearing VP you will not be killing any avatars. I mean lets be blunt, you need resists, HP, mythical powah and other dps/healing powerhouse elements in general on the encounters. But is anyone suggesting the guild who is doing 40k through Kor-sha is being done wrong somehow because they have no shot at avatars? My guess is they wouldn't go fight it if they could (not for hours atleast). Not that they are pussy, but its easy to pick and choose some battles based on odds.

So with all that in mind...are there guilds clearing VP with unfair odds against them so that the avatar game is unfair for them?

I really don't think so, it is unfortunate that they cannot get on early enough to beat the top guilds who do but it is what it is. the mobs aren't designed to be fair, thats why they made everything instanced over how Eq1 used to be

I was in a top end raiding guild in eq1 and we had a rotation set up for specific mobs, if most people weren't such arrogant pricks they could talk to the top guilds and ask them to let them have a few pulls on a mob but everyone feels the need to bash said guilds so its pretty understandable why they won't let them

And Im the idiot? Enjoy the desert mother fucker, Ill be back here stateside, smoking fat grass, fucking the girls in your family, and most likely sleeping without any gunfire within earshot.

I cant really tell, but your picture where your o so proud to be part of the baby killing machine there, you look like a little dude too, which would explain your genetic need to dominate something there Napolean.

Now I understand you, and dismiss you back to your military machine, and your surrogate penis. /salute

PS: Private Joker? is that you? I loved that fuckin movie son!

Maybe some of you people out there are not quite familiar with Alesis yet. Threads like this tend to bring him out to show all the hardcore raiders the error of their ways. Alesis is an advocate of an entitlement society. His motto is basically "I pay my money so give me my avatar gear." He is pretty much hated by everyone on this site and will of course result to real life attacks when his shitty arguments are challenged.

"baby killing machine"? what degree of faggot are you Alesis?

Go videotape some shitty guild wiping in PR.

I for one think contested are fine as they are, 1 cool thing would be if sony would maybe once a month or once ever couple months would hold some kind of cross server best of the best or something where they would design a new encounter and open the zone up at once time on all servers. First guild to figure the strat out and kill it gets a mythical piece. everyone else is booted out of the instance and only 1 person ww has teh piece.. that would be competition. Motha fuckers would be taking off work n shit.

Alesis is an advocate of an entitlement society. His motto is basically "I pay my money so give me my avatar gear." No mother fucker, I advocate everyone getting a shot at the mob, and ending its dominance by a few hardcore guilds world wide. My point all along has been if the mobs where instanced, everyone gets to experience the content instead of the elite few, even if its to fail. After all, if it was instanced, ubers still kill it first, and get thier e-peen swinging bragging rights, but everyone else gets to see the mob too. Of course none of you vocal hardcores wants any competition, so your against that shit. Fuck you douchebag, eq2 is about as competitive as taking five nyquil and trying to jerk off before I fall asleep- no matter what the result, Im gauranteed to be a winner as long as I stick it out to the end. Quit trying to pretend this is harder than it is, and quit trying to pretend your competing over something, unless your on a pvp server. He is pretty much hated by everyone on this site and will of course result to real life attacks when his shitty arguments are challenged. Hated by everyone on this site? O come on now muffin, tell me it aint so! However will I sleep at night? I dont give a fuck what you think, what your guildies think, what anyone from NPU or Confirmed thinks, or what your "hardcore network" thinks. If you post on eq2flames.com, and dont agree whole-heartedly with what some dipshit from an uber guild is posting, then your an idiot. Well guess what? I dont even remotely give a fuck lol.

"baby killing machine"? what degree of faggot are you Alesis? Um Im the type of faggot who believes invading peoples countries un provoked and killing is wrong, Lieing to your country to start wars is wrong, and that if you are part of the killing machine sitting out there in the desert right now assualting a culture because it wont do as its told, then you are part of the problem, not the solution, and you need to seriously re-think your life path. Im the type of faggot who would be more likely to go over there and feed someone, or help them fix thier public water system as opposed to bombing women and children in public places.

Go videotape some shitty guild wiping in PR.If I wanted to film someone wiping something, it would be your wife, mom and grandma wiping this nasty Dutch load I just dumped on them off thier faces at the scenes money shot, after I got done filming "Alesis .vs Scarecrows Family." [/quote]
