A Certain Guild Tests Infernal Dawn Then Sells Us the Strategies for $5 a Pop

[Dunharrow]

I've already mentioned this but to my knowledge there are no guilds that tested every single bosses in ID and many bosses were only tested in segments (for example a specific phase of the boss fight). The $5 early access is to pay for the amount of work the people writing the strategies put into it (hosting a website isn't free & they spend their own time writing these strategies). I have no ties with this website but that would be my understanding for it.

I'm limited to what I can say here due to NDA but I will just say this again, our guild did not test every bosses in ID. You can speculate what you want and the fact I even replied to this thread I'd be surprised if this thread doesn't derail like the many previous ones did concerning guilds testing ID.

The strategy site is run to boost egos, not perform a service. Websites can be run profitably without selling content. For example, I disabled ads on my site awhile ago, but I'm still in the black. The strategy site in question is not any more costly to run.

Pretty sure you spend more time and effort being mad at us than you actually do playing the game. This amuses me.

Time is money. I have no ties with the website so I can't speak for someone else.

Wait, people still play rift on days other than Wednesday, and Saturday?

Really? Try this: http://forums.riftgame.com/rift-gene...-hi-there.html

Next?

The nature of the two threads are very different. An inability to discern this would further disqualify a raid leader from testing content for bugs.

I'm pretty sure you're just very upset that you are not them, and you do not get the opportunities they get. Maybe it's because your lack of skill, or maybe it's just because you make threads like this. I suggest you do us all a favor and quit your *****ing or quit this game. Clearly you take this crap way too seriously. Maybe go get laid or at least masturbate to relieve some of this built up aggression you have towards others that are obviously better than you... AT A GAME. Please stop making these stupid threads. If you care so much about someone being better than you at a game maybe you should just an hero for us. They did not test earth wing yet you still complain they had an advantage... I can agree, skill is an advantage so you should probably get some. You'll never get a world first in this game. No matter how much you try. THE POOL IS CLOSED.

Thanks for the psychoanalysis, Freud. I won't get a world first because I have a job. Neither will you, but probably not for the same reason.

I don't like any guild getting an unfair advantage, including mine.

So wait is this still about you being butthurt about them testing or is it actually about the selling strategies now

$5 for early access. That's the model afaik. Kind of like saying, "If you really desperately want the strat that badly, here's a way we can give you access without opening it to every person in the universe before a week after its release has even passed."

Not unreasonable at all, considering how short an amount of time you need to wait to see a free version with no strings attached.

But it seems that hating on Abracadabra is the cool thing to do lately.

Why can't it be both? This is what happens when you let certain guilds test multiple encounters months before release.

I'd like to note that he complained about them making the strategies public for people to read, then made the strategies public for people to read

They were already public. I made them free.

Yeah, you can just stop posting now (which you should anyway, because it makes you look incredibly butthurt and childish) because as soon as you use the "I have a job/life/girlfriend" argument, you pretty much invalidate everything you say.

That and I cant take you seriously when you have a sig with "advanced rogue strategy" under your name.

free will always outsell $5. You won the market, and last time i checked no one is forcing you to buy it (yet). So what is there to complain about?

If you login to raid any time new content is released and raid non stop until you clear it, I'd say you probably are not gainfully employed.
