Fuck that. Who the fuck gets this idea? ..

"Hey Bob! Let's make zone_01, which was recently a several month project to get keyed for, open to every other fuckwad on the server."

Fuck that shit. Game or no, I (as many others have past and present) camped useless shit for way too long to accomplish getting to VT(and having success there). Let them open VT for those jackasses on stormhammer.

Has SoE become so newbie-friendly that they cannot bear to have any zone vacant until the 7-day mobs are up(and even 3-day)? It is not like getting keyed is some big secret....


Basically, fuck that(once again). If you have not earned the right to be there after dealing with the mindless tedious camps and taking /tells from every fucking moron in ssra to loot a rift and dealing with the stalls, etc... then fuck right on off. :P

edit: Then again, I am not quite sure I believe you, so take my rant as a preemptive rant just in case....

They could instance VT!

But still leave keyed of course.

That key sucked ass to help get for two guilds. I'd like double the AAs if they are giving them out!

Give sony some time and they will make time level restricted as opposed to flagged.... Remember, they are the ones that let the idiots into BoT...

Hey mofo! Im one of the idiots that they let into BoT... of course, I did create absolutely spActActular trains there!

Heh, for someone that plays like once or twice a month.. the dumbing down of content works for me.... I was uber when I went on a dragon raid pre-kunark.... then on VS, then on Trakanon... then into Plane of Sky....

I stopped that lifestyle.. but yea, I think that SoE is just trying to prolong the life of thier game a bit more... hell, I dont care, it costs me less than 2 drinks to keep my account active.

This is nothing new. They have always dumbed down all raid content once it became two expansions old. Should another expansion fly after GoD, fully expect all of PoP to require no more flags.

No Kyou, Voro isnt 60 yet, we havent managed to kill him enough times yet. :( We'll try to deathloop him somewhere and see if that helps. :P

Teg im not lying at all. I heard it stright from a Devs chat. Before i was done talking with him he askd me how far i was in EQ, i replyed with i was in VT so far and having a great time. He then wich replyed that it is open to all on Test Server to see how big of a response they would get on a good side or bad!

Simple way about this would be to go to test, make a gimp, run it to VT, click. VT was never level restricted to my knowledge..

VT is not a newbie zone.
Some level 65 tards have a hard enough time getting across Maidens Eye alive.
Even more gimps die in Umbral.
And god forbid if Rumblecrush is up.




Hahaha, that would own if your ToVK effect was reduced to Ultravision. :wink:

VT is gay, who cares really. All the renobs on our server have access by now anyway.

Not like the key quest was ever the major timesink of VT anyway...

I will have to agree about the lvl 65 people dying in ME...

I kind of like VT, although at lvl 60 I imagine it was a bigger pita...

All the effects being taken off of Blessing of Vah Kerrath may have something to do with them changing the way items display information like that.

Posted: March 7, 2004, 4:27 pm
by Drolgin Steingrinder
They're working on changing how effects on items are displayed - instead of Talisman of Vah Kerrath just having "Blessing of Vah Kerrath" on it, or an item with 41% haste having "Haste", they'll be listed more like the spellshield/stun resist/shielding/avoidance etc.

Talisman of Vah Kerrath

The purpose of the second quote was to test if it was keyed or not.. Not that you'd storm the castle with an army of /testbuff'd characters.

Fuck that monkey spunk. The VT key was the biggest piece of shit quest in any game EVER!

Opening that up to the lower crowd is a slap in the face, yet I have sympathy for anyone doing that quest. This is nothing new though, they have always done this shit. It makes sense if they want people to actually use that piece of shit zone.

God damn pussy bitches! bloop bloop!

good!!!!!!!! not like I ever want to go back to that shit hole, but people work way to hard to have it pissed away by someone's "good idea". Last thing we need is the raid content any easier then it is, then everyone would be on FoH's heals, or who ever is the super power of Veeshan these days.

They could get rid of the lame shard quest parts and just make an Emperor kill give out VT flags. That wouldn't really change progression any. The only point of the shards was to slow people down.

Also, opening it up would probably have the opposite affect. You'd have everyone always trying for it so loot distribution would be more dispersed among guilds.

Some faded part of my memory bank remembers a rumor that VP was going to be unkeyed as well.. that never happened, that I'm aware of. If they aren't going to do that zone, why would they do VT? VD may be free, but not VT or VP.

Don't remember that rumor. But VP was changed so you could gate out.

Even if they open it up, it wont effect much except give the current vt raiding guilds more people to use. Any guild that could muster up a capable force fast enough to beat koe/lov/hooac/whoever else to spawns could surely beat the weaksauce emp.
