I am not saying that warriors arent as great as rangers. But that they can run too.

warriors have a lot more armor (especially vs physical attacks) and its pretty pointless to

We are not saying it has to be a warrior, but that is what a majority of the material covers.

yes i have to say that monks are good too they may not be as fast but the skill spell breaker works like a charm.

As is the service provided. You get where you want to go. Every time. Check some of the officers personal threads here. Nary a complaint. Plus we do a lot of stuff very few others would even consider.

Da Deathblade · Feb 01, 2006, 06:00 PM // 18:00

But say you go to a town, there usually is at least 1 runner advertising to go somewhere with a 100% success rate. There are a lot of runners that can go anywhere.

Hockster · Feb 01, 2006, 06:08 PM // 18:08

Everyone can say they have 100% success rate. Very few do, and no one does anymore on the droks run. But we to cater to the high end clientelle. Many are repeat customers who know the prices and know the quality of the service. It's like buying an Accord or a Lexus. The Accord will get you want to go, but the Lexus will do it in style.

Anarion Silverhand · Feb 01, 2006, 06:26 PM // 18:26

In the end, it's the costumers choice. Does he want to pm a graduate and get to his location with 100% succes rate, or does he want to be standing in a city yelling for a runner who can't make it?

You don't like their prices, some do. Accept it.

Ah but look around the forum, some of these runners that are NOT in LBS have the same quality. I don't understand what you mean either, how do you do a run in style?

William Sunrider · Feb 01, 2006, 07:58 PM // 19:58

i it really fair to bash on non LBS runners?

I see a lot of deffensive attitude when someone insults LBS but what about those runners that DO get you there even if it takes 2-3 tries? Where is their respect? I Also agree with above post. its those other runners that make it possible for the rest of us.

I have no experience about the others runners quality, so I can't really say or comment if they offer the same experience and knowledge in running skills. I can comment though about the variety of runs we can offer run/rush from ascalon to hell's precipice - at lvl1 if you wish and the LBSRA policy about customers hiring a trustworthy, polite, fast and experienced runner. Not a single customer should be afraid of paying in advance: 10k, 100k, 500k, 1000k because you will receive the service you paid for "in style". Example: Ascalon-Ascension (Ascalon-Sanctum-all desert locations and completion of desert missions) in 3 hours is possible in LBS.

"DO get you there even if it takes 2-3 tries?" - Fine with me, I can't really argue or express any opinons, if the customer is happy with the runner even if it takes 2-3 tries. It's up to you to decided if it's been worth it. "It's those other runners that make it possible for the rest of us." - It's a matter of value your time.

Well we offer an excellent service but we also are some of the most trustworthy people you will ever find. I do not have any feedback anywhere as I have yet to start a running service thread but I have had people pay me vast amounts of money in advance because they trust me due to the lbs guild tag. I have spoken to people on rare occassions yet they entrust me with hundred of thousands of gold due to being a member of lbsra. Comments such as, " would you be able to do xxxx for me, I trust you because you are a member of lbsra" make me feel proud to be a member of lbsra. Yeah anyone can offer a running service but with lbsra you are able to get a quality service without the risk of runner of customer being scammed. Imagine paying for a world tour with us and then being able to go afk for the whole run which may take many hours and then returning to be at your destination. Other runners you may have to pay at each town as you are uncertain of entrusting them with hundreds of thousands of gold. With us there are no problems with trust or quality.

IMO, you're just offering a frufru academy (you may train great runners here) for a extremely hi sum, and then offering services way inflated. All you're doing is inflating the economy

Regular runners as you describe advertise on spot for customers. We on the other hand are usually in UW, FoW, Tombs, pve, pvp, farming, trading ect. We're on call if anyone need assistences for a run. The price are usually based on per party. It's not our job to assemble the party. If one customer askes for a run and he won't invite anymore into the run, the price will be the same as per party price. Inflating the economy by providing a LBS high-end runner service? Are you saying that I should run people ascalon to desert for 10k for 1 hours work, while I could have farmed (or much more) it in UW for less than 30 minutes? It's a matter of value your time, once again...

Dammit, I've made a fool of my self again. I do that a lot. A whole lot. Anyway, the way you have put it, it does sound like a greater value than a regular runner. Thought I'd post again to make a public apology. The LBS service does sound a whole lot better. I guess when I saw the price, I immideatly became a. Jealous or b.Thought "how the hell will I get that kind of stuff?"

It may just be overall in my break that the econemy has changed a whole lot. In the old days of beta and around release (I left a month afterwards)my FDS was extremely uncommon (especially for a level 12 to wield). Now all my stuff is shit and everyone is l33tsauce (lol) like I once was.I ask exactly how people attain these sums of money though? At camp rankor I went out with henchies on my main (level 12) and only got like 22gold just farming in talus pass.

Sorry for being a fool and blindly flaming you.

Mie Leiao · Feb 02, 2006, 04:35 AM // 04:35

How do lowlvls get money? My guild is gonna run me from rankor to droks soon and Powerlevel me for free there... So what do I need to get prepared for that leet gear and maybe enrolling in something like this someday? Oh, and, please don't tell me theres some academy for low levels to learn this stuff for 296485032806808360 ecto

Play the game. You won't learn it by being rushed through it.

Hockster · Feb 02, 2006, 03:36 PM // 15:36

Anyone affording our rates has played the game. Probably for quite a while.

breizhnemesis · Feb 02, 2006, 04:41 PM // 16:41

I need this run : Drok's to Grotto - 60K per party

But what is the price for one person ?

Anarion Silverhand · Feb 02, 2006, 05:25 PM // 17:25

Divide by 7?

Hockster · Feb 02, 2006, 05:32 PM // 17:32

Party price is just that. Doesn't matter if the party is 1 or 7.
