Besides, on an OOC level, I actually like the Tide mechanic. You can't tell me that a mechanic that spawns horrible supermobs for each person in a group, scaled to the level of the person spawning it, isn't the perfect "Stop grouping up and spamming your bashing macro" tool.
Let's take it a step further: Spawn Tide mobs at the appropriate elevation of the person and prevent it from spawning them while people are phased/astral/blackwinded and baby, you got a stew going.
I also feel you talking about people walking in and spawning shit. It doesn't matter where I go, I get a handful of people that basically swarm me when I'm killing shit. They walk in juuuust long enough to spawn stuff and then leave.
Screams of villages and denizens in the land being attacked by Black Wave monsters, just to add to the atmosphere. Basically just a small line code of "Villagers across the land scream in futility as a group of <ogres/goblinoids/beetles> ravage their form.
Large squads of Black wave monsters roaming the land, similar to Ormyrr, just so we can say "We just took out that large squad. Victory!".
I would love some form of score-board to check, such as: Tsol'teth currently control 68% of sapience, Resistance controls 30%, 2% unclaimed. Makes you feel you're really putting a dent in things when you see numbers change.
I would -adore- (delano) if the Tsol'teth could try to attack one of the major cities. God that would be insanely fun. Though I can picture some trolls out there (Begins with N, ends with lists) sitting on the side lines to try and get more killed -,-.
And not everyone is being griefy about it. Many people on all three sides are trying to follow "the rules."
I like to think I've figured out who to follow in the coalition to avoid being griefy. I also like to think I've realized who on the other side isn't going to wombs me until it's okay to.
Part of the problem is that this was a massive, large scale event, so the admin couldn't ask ACC to help test this stuff. People went far above and beyond what was predicted, and they've been scrambling to fix one broken thing after another while also doing things like controlling the Tsol'teth, monitoring the Tide, etc. Every time something is fixed, people just move on to the next broken thing that wasn't being used before.
That all being said, I'm still having fun with this event. Mhaldor will just pick it's battles carefully, and we've all (as Mhaldorians) been working on separating ourselves from OOC attachment to "winning" this event. There are times we do well, and collect most/all of the splinters, but there are other times when it's 30v4 that it is pointless to even try.
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...
...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.
Cascades of quicksilver light streak across the firmament as the celestial voice of Ourania intones, "Oh Jarrod..."
A plump harlot has been pummeled into pulp by an ogre, clearly soliciting the wrong kind of customer.
Screams echo out from fleeing villagers in Delos as they escape the horrors of the black wave.
Seasone has been pierced through the chest by the spear of a goblinoid, having run out of health elixir.
Vellis has fallen to the combine efforts of several ogres.
A flurry of murderous butterflies has torn to pieces a group of ogres
A great battle ensues in the mines of Moghedu, costing the lives of several Mhun and black wave monstrosities.
The great Mhunna has done battle and won against a slew of Ogres and Goblinoids.
The great Mhunna has fallen, strangled from behind by a murderous shadow.
Lachesis laughs manically as she entraps several goblinoids in her web, a meal for her subjects.
The Keep of Belladona is a rumble of activity as ogres clash with their mutated kind
Howls and shrieks echo from Belladona's keep as shadows and apparitions deal ethereal blows in a battle of shades.

Thanks again Makarios for fixing problems!

So it's not a moot point, it's pretty important. Blatant bug abuse like that should be punished.
Not that I care much, though. I hardly bother with the shards anymore.
