Collection Event, Part II  

Posted by Anonymous in

The second half of this weeks list is out and this one is doable too. It might take a little coordinated grinding again, just like the first list, but let's have a look at what's on the list;



This isn't too bad because there are only a couple of really valuable items on this list and to tell the truth you can see what has been collected so far on that public google document. As I write this there hasn't been a Bardo VGM online yet to collect what we already have, but I've spoken to several people and it would seem that we already have well over half of this list saved up. I'm not surprised, Nirvana found 80% of this list while we on Bardo we're sleeping. In the next 12 hours I'm sure we will catch up. We're just waiting for a VGM, as usual.

What I'm going to say next is pretty much certain to piss off a few people. I don't mind.

Between a small number of people in the Disconnected and Restless League we collected the majority of that first list, and in speaking with Restless League members this morning I'm told they already have 50% of the second list in the bag. They've been saving their drops.

Even when I and many others haven't had a character that could collect items, I made one for the lowby stuff, or I and others ran the maps buffing players who were collecting items. I'm sure we'll be doing that again for this second list.

I'm calling out to all those big-mouthed PvP leagues who love to lord it over the rest of us in Bloody Plains or in Storm vs Storm. UnitedForces? I didn't see a single one of your members collecting items while I was buffing players. You people don't share the treasure from the forts, why should we do the work on these collection quests, on your behalf?

Juggalo Troops? Same deal. Not one player was seen collecting. Storom? Where were you and the rest of the Madafakaz for the last couple of days? (Update: Exactly one of the Madafakaz was in Death Valley working on the mobs there, but it was me who buffed him...) Ok, it's a silly question because I know where you people have been. Goofing off in Bloody Plains or sitting on your thumbs on the Penalty Bridge.

Pull your thumbs out people, because the small number of people who have been collecting for these experience events are not only tired of doing most of the work, we've run out of saved items too. The next event like this is going to need a lot more people to share the work, or we aren't even going to get 4x for 4 hours. The PvP leagues can get involved too.

well 1 madafaka was busy ksing people at the Bronze Plate mobs, so you've got your typical storom-like help there...
1 of evolet's and 1 of adryan's disciples were there too for a couple of minutes.

Let's see, I have a warrior that can grind either for spearheads or for iron coin stuff; another warrior on the black side that can go for blue cotton cloth; an RC char that might farm on the 3 bai wu changs in zz. It's the second time that I give away a generous stack of fiber ropes from an FC char that collected them for wt passes.

But I can't grind 3 chars at the same time and I'm running low on saved up stuff. Nor am I willing to spend a whole week grinding more or less useless chars only to hear loudmouths complaining that we only have 4xp and not 5xp, whining for rebuff and in general behaving like they are entitled to any kind of event or extra stuff when I haven't seen them work for it.
