Instances SHOULD be 1K each considering the server is a box realm and logging in toons is more painful than a proctology exam. Can we get a little loyalty sympathy or do you just not give a damn Hunter? =)

Group instances are 2k.
Guild instances are 10k up to T3 (Exception Guk).
Guild instances at T3 and above are 100k.

These prices seem good - maybe even a tad low (Exception Guk LOL).

Specifically, which ones do you find issue with?

As much as I agree with you, Gnaughty, this probably won't be changed. Hunter has said many times how you can make back the cost of the instance within a couple hours, but I guess he doesn't take into consideration that not everyone sells the 3.5 book and pages when they go in there, and I don't care what anyone says, the amount of gems that drop are not enough to make back 100k. It's just simply not true.

You need to have a higher post count like Xiggie or Fugitive.

Not only is it true, but it is also fairly quick.

Very true, doesnt take me long to make 500k or more in hoh.
It requires a decent portion of my day spent in there but I need pages and I need stones to spawn bosses so its all good.
Personally taking the time to loot the gems annoys me because it slows me down BUT I can now pay for a weeks worth of alt gearing off just a single day in HoH.
No more need for me to park toons in lguk farming crap to sell or whoring xiggies sister out to bring in the pp.

would like to see more 2k or even 10k GROUP instances but really the only one that is out of whack is Guk for...100k lol.  I know you can make your money back selling FG items.. don't care that's not what I want to waste my time doing... IMO

If Guk is overcamped and you're considering buying one or two items, you'd already be cheaper off getting the instance.

I would totally be pro a 3-hour 10k group instance, though, but the problem with that is that it's too easy to reset.

Consider someone with 100k to blow: He can either get a guild instance for 100k, which lands him 24 hours. He will not be able to use all 24 hours himself, in normal circumstances, so let's assume he has 8 hours to blow.
For the same 100k, he could get 20-30 hours worth of farming, spread over any amount of time as he chooses, with the option of going: Fuck it, I REALLY need that FBSS, I'm deleting and resetting the instance, which means he could cram 10 spawns of all mobs on as little as 2-3 hours.

Making an undeletable guk group instance for 3 hours, however? Win.

The price was cut in half since she got clap, so $1.95 plus local taxes.

Another thing I find humorous is when I buy guk instances and I am done farming the crap out of it, I usually have like 8 hours left on it. NO one ever wants to tag up and use the rest of the timer on the instance for as cheap as 10kpp or whatever Im asking.
I see people bitching a lot but no one ever taking advantage of offers put out there.

I'll save my other rants about the stupid majority of the server for later.

Send me a tell next time you have that offer going on. I'll take you up on it almost every time.


Gnaughtly I think it's 5 gems now if I remember correctly. So it's not a ton, but it is a little help in getting the 100k back. I don't know what you'd consider the average value of the 5 gems, 400pp mabye(dunno), so you'd have to have over 200 kills to break even on the 100k. There's a lof of avatars in there not sure if there is more/less than 200 though.

You mean just like you can do with Qvic, Tacvi, T1/T2, and I assume T3/T4(?)

SO WHAT?

Really don't get the fascination with keeping GUK of all places super secure against TEH EVIL FARMERZ...  I mean it's only the 2.5 flag...  meanwhile I can get the 3.0 flag in about an hour or less, reset the instance and do it all over again... same for Tacvi... hell I cleared Tacvi with my crappy little group in about 15-20 mins then reset the instance, can do that 3-4 times per hour...

So if I can do that in Qvic/Tacvi and T1/T2 (though with random chance of tikis to respawn in 1-5 mins it's less worth doing) why not guk?
