Completly randomized eq loads and drops.
No reason for a ranger to go on a trip to gear with a shaman and invoker and get a full set of adeptus armors. Should be eq loads randomly to same lvl creature etc...
Eq
I completely dislike this idea.
The one thing that differentiates FL from most other RPG games is that you know where to look for certain EQ you want. Not having to kill Mephisto over and over and hope for something of value to pop up.
The current system also prevents EQ grinding. You still have EQ runs, but here you know if something is in the lands and you know exactly how hard it will be to get it.
Locate object!!!!!!!
You said completely randomized loads and drops.
Besides, that would make locate object a bit too important...
And what is even the point is such a change? What would it bring?
You know what Foxx all I ever see you do is shoot down people ideas, suggestions 80% of the time without any real good retort so im done even bothering with any ideas because I tired of seeing it personally.
Foxx is just looking on the otherside debate is healthy

been playing the piss out of Diable 3 on xbox. As much as it pains me to do so I agree with foxx. One of the best parts of FL It took me years to learn what I know of the game, feel like I earned the knowledge.

Ya'll play nice now, ya'hear? Remember, this is all in text, so everything is going to inevitably read/taken the wrong way. Let's make sure we're debating rather than arguing.
I completely hate the idea.
I have played muds when drops were random. It's the most awful of mechanics.
It lead to an awful amount of grinding. We had EQ runs, but half the times people came home with stuff empty handed because it was not what they needed.
Yes and right now we have people who are fond of ICQ, Aim, etc... putting together parties to go get full suits of Gear, Desolation, Dischord while people who actually play (legit is how I call no at all outside the game) contacts to put together these runs. At the moment vets know whats there, how many they are , all the stats of the items, and what class race they are best for among other things leaving newbs and the casual play crapped out.
Somewhat randomized stats on eq..not randomized drops themselves...
Kill and loot them. The old FL spirit.
There will always be OOC groups. This change would harm more than bring good.
I don't see what random power on stats attributes would aid.
The best way for a change to affect this problem that affects kid, would be to reduce the power of this god suits. Something I would love to see. The rise of a more skill based PK.

Call them out then. Post on prayer forum about them.
I for one, don't do it, and I know most of the players don't do it. There are few that I suspect of doing it, I can't be certain though. If you know for sure someone is doing it though, either call them out or post about them on prayer.
Since you are still young, I will teach you two very important things about RL which you seem to be missing:
People will not always agree with you. When this happens, don't get mad and either argue politely, or retreat humbly. Even though sometimes you will be right.
Do not generalize. People are different, no matter their ethos, religion, race, colour, country or birth.
I am personally a big fan of the idea of having mildly randomized stats on pieces of gear, and eliminating the entire idea of rare/unique eq. Sure, you can do a gear run 2 hours after a purge, and get your suit of guaranteed eq, but what happens when your stats are rolled lower on that eq?
Im posting this as a new idea.
