    ok lemme answer question without ever accusing the linkshells in question of using 3rd pt apps to claim. they may, they may not, but im not on their server and know no one in their shells...

    it becomes fairly easy to dominate kings if there isn't much advanced competition from other shells. as someone who led a shell during the transition from a sky/jeuno hnm shell to a kings shell, i saw that a lot of people who were really talented, great players really had a hard time dealing with the transition. that's because the average sky shell will have scheduled dates for farming and gods, maybe a night set aside for popping NMs like kurrea or gration, or ohats. folks with jobs and schedules are given time and space to flourish under these circumstances, as they can fit in their 'hnming' into their rl schedules. furthermore, players who may have more free time to spend in game, but like crafting, leveling, farming, etc, have the time to do so, knowing that perhaps wednesdays and saturdays, they need to be in sky for four or five hours.

    when you make the transition to ground, a lot of players get disenchanted with the idea of sitting in one place doing nothing for three hours, for only a chance at fighting something. this is especially likely if you're not claiming a lot. furthermore, the players have to be flexible with times, as a first window pop from a king pushes back camp time the next day three hours. this is even more complicated by the necessity of certain jobs when fighting kings(blm, rdm, pld, brd, and when it comes to melee, at least for kings, it's you better have sam or thf leveled, or sit outside the fight). so the player who can only be on for three hours gets frustrated that he just spent three hours in DA staring at darters to not get to fight anything.

    add that up enough, and you get a linkshell(or linkshells) who just decide that camping kings aren't worth it, and so the few that do tend to hold a monopoly on them.

    end speech, no drops to post as of late, but had a really fun dynamis bubu run on wednesday with nin and sam hands -1 dropping, and drk cape and rng belt dropping as well

    Heh I wish we had little competition or we just owned all pops. But in reality its neither, we are just consistent. Quite a few other ls's camp but only go in streaks and when they do, they win a fare share of pops (much to our frustration). WW and Kon don't win 95% of pops, lol we could only dream but we do get a nice chunk cause we persistent. Alternating works great for us because it doesn't burn people out and when its our turn/week we ensure maximum attendance and I'm sure thats the case with WW.

    And WW and us still compete on cerb and khim as do RTU, Vryheid, Keisuke etc. And the creator of ffxiapp is not a leader of our ls, never was, and in fact he no longer is on our server (his GF moved him to hades).
