I Envey Other Servers

I just read few post in other servers and they are making effort to unite the peeps on their server. I Wish we have that mentality in Reni!!!

Then take it upon yourself to do so. I haven't seen 1 world shout asking for 75 wodjin raid.

As you noticed, also, on other servers, some guilds did bug Wodjin on their own before opening it up to others - that hasn't happened yet. Some guilds first want to do a guild-only downing of wodjin. No guild has done so without first bugging him, therefore no open pugs have been established. Leaders in Clockwork decided we would not bug the boss, rather learn the strat in case it gets fixed. Not something I agree with, for various reasons, but it is the reason why it hasnt been downed yet on Reni.

I for one dislike how the new bosses only give 15 Proof of Legends *per raid*. Not sure how Id want to deal with that in a pug.

If I, personally were to pug outside of guild, Id do so.with some ex-guildies from Heretic whom I know and trust and know will contribute to the fight, not someone who piggy back rides off others and ends up winning 3 end game rewards for themselves.


Call it elitist or what you may, but when the loot dropped by this boss makes it so anyone can "ninja" loot, and not be punished in anyway - because they *do* win the roll, then I am going to watch out for myself and those I know contribute heavily to the fight, and in that regard, if it applies, then yes. I am elitist.

Reni's always had issues working together, the primary one being drama between players.

You see the guilds sniping at each other, in some form or another, almost constantly in world chat. It almost doesn't matter what the excuse or incident that started it was. Some of the feuds have been epic and lasted for years. Is there anyone on our server who doesn't at least know something about Mandrakes vs. Mysticlight, or Wanted vs. Ragnarok, or any number of other feuds that left their mark on our server (although the guilds and people may themselves be long gone now)?

Drama over gear. Drama over kill stealing. Drama over he-said she-said. Drama over siege. Drama over wars. Drama over Zeevex, drama over diamonds, gold- if you can name it, we've had at least an argument in World Chat over it.

If we aren't the freaking Drama Queens of ROM, we at least come in second place. Egos on Reni tend to run really high, and Clockwork has had its fair share of drama, if not more. Some of it stems from maturity issues, sure, but the majority seems to be coming from players who are bored- and have nothing better to do.

I don't expect to see a spirit of cooperation on our server, given its history and the general direction the game has taken. It may happen between a few guilds now and again, but that's the extent of it.
In a world of black, white, and grey... I'd be bright friggin' purple. M/P on Reni.

Meh... Reni is fine. There are things that other servers do better, there are plenty of things Reni does better. The envy is just more of the grass is greener on other side syndrome that is present throughout all US server, and I am sure not just US ones.

You know, lately I have seen small parts of Reni unity lately. I have been in many groups running the instances and have seen all different guilds be a part of those groups. There will always been people that ninja loot and guilds that want to be the first to clear some achievement,but thats nothing new to this game. Been happening since Ant Queen.

Yeah! Go Heretic! Haha, I am sure Clockwork has enough people to down the boss. It would be fun to team team up and take it down though. We have many great players in our guild but its still a challenge to get enough people online that are "TOSH Ready" and that are free and want to do an instance run. We usually have something going on once a day but typically pickup someone from another guild.

So you condone bugging of world bosses/instances etc? Can you be more specific on this and infact if you are condoning this i would rather see you banned.

Yea, this is clearly an exploit of game mechanics since something must be done to "bug" the boss and thus the intent of using it should be a bannable offense.

Tell me 1 guild who has *EVER* downed Wodjin without either 1) Burning before birds came, or 2) Bugged him to kill him. And where the hell do you get instances from? Troll right if you're going to troll.

Everyone who has downed Wodjin recently bugged it. And as I stated, we have not, hence why Reni hasnt downed Wodjin.

Quoted from "blotoe;568235"

Intent and performing the action are 2 different things kid.

I challenge any 1 guild or group who has downed the new lvl 75 Wodjin to show video proof of it being done with full strat intact, no bugging, birds and all.

Damn trolls are like flies, gotta swat them down.

I was imagining taking down that boss with a group of 32 people, who would get the rewards, stats or whatever from it. Would they run it again and pass on loot for others to get them ?? Then you would see real drama again, lol.

Can't wait to see the drama in world chat for that ;-(

hey Ravesden, have ur guild tried making 2 or 3 parties, 1 party start the fight, 2nd party takes down the birds as they spawn and then start helping the first party with wodjin since they will get in combat at that time and the third party gets to clear the second wave of birds that spawn and then all attack the wodjin. well i'm assuming that the only 2 waves spawn like it did in the original version of wodjin.

PS: i'm willing to heal if needed! invite me on Bilall

PPS: oh and make sure the 2nd and third party have aoes with them.

PPPS: well we can even have the aoe'ers not be in any party and do their strongest aoes 1 after the other if they get silenced or something immediately after doing it.

I have seen the boss be bugged by accident many times....hell, even hard mode Mandara can be bugged ffs...the 2 top rogues on AU server duo'ed Mandara because it bugged....unfortunately we haven't been able to bug it again :(

If they can be bugged without even intentionally trying to then how the hell should somebody get banned for bugging it on purpose? Blame failforge, not the player for trying to make something easier lol.
