umm no


not anyone can take DJ missions, only imps, and only imp jedi with AI or root/snarers at that. Same with NS...I could take them as a BH/Pistoleer, but its going to take a long time and my armor will take a lot of damage from each one.


Stop apologizing for campers until camping isnt the MOST EFFICIENT and COST-EFFECTIVE way to get SEAs in the whole game.

i understand what he means, if some of the more higher lvl mobs that give the high end loot had a timer such as Necrosis has, 30min then your removed from that area whether you killed him or not, its the same with the arena in the kerritamba, if there were more of these then the AFK loot hunters that destabilise the econermy wont have that pleasure of just staying there for hours on end

Here is an idea, get rid of /loot altoghther, that would cut out loot macro's which also are lame anyway

Rand al'thor..........nobody is being a baby, the problem is people have taken to camping out rather then actually playing a game. some people would like to just make a run thru the Aakuan cave just to do it and see if they get lucky, but when u have half the server afk in there thats not going to happen. Plus this damn camping is flooding the market with skill tapes and Aakuan rings. As for the DJM/DJK problem, that area is being exploited to no end and people are bragging on here how to do the exploits. When u go on the trade forum and the majority of the auctions are for skill tapes +25 there is something seriously wrong. Skill tapes that high should be a uber drop, kinda like the flawless krayt pears were before the CU. What is going on is ridiculous, and i'm pretty sure from ur post ur either a camper or someone who uses the exploit for the DJM/DJK mission.

As a bounty hunter/rifleman/4004 pistols i can solo anything in the game and i damn well should be able to, my equipment i've spent millions on, i've been to aakauns 3 times since curb, nyax 4 times once i realised how crap the loot was from them now i haven't been back, pre curb yeah i was a loot camper so sue me, i would play on my main and leave an alt with a 900dmg dxr camping nyax alt tab back every now and again, would solo krayt's and eldars in under 5minutes using NO jedi.


The fact that all content is now pretty much available to all characters and therefore all kinds' of loot, nsers are ease if you can soloa protector, eldars etc as any profession in teh game your doing something seriouslly wrong. I can solo 3 sentinels with my tank character and my rifleman alt running a headshot macro and it's not even that hard.


Get some decent gear and go fight for the loot, hell i haven't even bothered with aklay yet since the curb.

Fighting for the loot isn't a problem, but fighting a *macro* for the loot? Does that even sound close to right?

in EQ2, they banned 400 AFK looters, AFK macroers in one day..or a week, I think it was.


If you report one for suspicion of AFK Macroing/killing..they investigate it.


Will not see such a slamdown on it here.

well then jek that's your loss, there were always going to be templates that were more effective at certain things than others, my lack of healing makes it tough for me when i get into closer combat or vs another ranged opponent. Should i then say it's unfair that they have healing no i deal with it. I choose my template based on how i play the game, so either choose a similar template if you want to hunt djm's or find someone to group up who has it. Your a pistoleer so just find someone with rifleman or carb's and your all set.

my point wasnt that rootsnaring is a bad template, but its the only way you can take high-end content like krayts, DJMs, lvl 109s etc solo. The only efficient way you can loot otherwise is in a few isolated spots - the spots that are camped by AFK looters. Basically AFK looters and rootsnarers are cornering the loot market, and I dont mind the rootsnarers having their role, but i do mind the AFK looters taking up everything else,so dont say either be a rootsnarer or dont bother to loot.

how about the whole thing is stuiped because what if you can not get when the timer expires. what if you are lagging badly, so that means that your hard worked for loot should be taken away from you. if that happened to me i would be so pissed.
