71425, Question on limited preps
Posted by Cointreau on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I have never really been a huge prepper (although I will admit I'm learning with my latest). Beyond the basic stuff such as enlarge, fly, protect vs. good/evil, etc.

However I am noticing something with all the Drissa logs being posted and some of the commentary. It seems that every time Drissa used a limited prep, the moment the fight was over she was off to collect it again.

This seemed like a really unfair advantage, as not only does it give that particular player a theoretically unlimited source of powerful preps (shield, aura, etc) but it also denies other players using it too.

This only compounds the strength players find from powerful limited gear, as typically whilst gear is limited, you can overcome this to a degree by prepping more against these stronger players. However in this case it is difficult as often this well geared played will have a bit of a monopoly over certains preps too.
What's worse, is they don't necessarily have to save it for special fights, they can use it all the time and simply grab it again after.

Now admittedly I am a bit naive here (I historically have played a lot of Villagers), so I may be wrong, but should certain preps have a randomised timer as to when they re-pop? Should there be weak "sleek-like" system in place for non Mages?

Interested to hear other people's thoughts.
