Thinking about giving Red99 a shot. What should I expect?

[Beaniron]

I kinda want to make a Druid, but not on Blue where my Pally is and stuff, I want to give Red a try and see if I can cut it and survive.

What should I expect? Was thinking of making a Wood Elf Druid and tailing it to Freeport.

/role asap otherwise certain grimy individuals will spot you on /who all and log their noobyard killaz

imo

[Beaniron]

Guards don't protect you from being PK'd?

[big league chew]

they do
mostly

just a suggestion you can be the only one showin location on who if you want :) more power to ya

[Num1RecommendedByDentists]

they do but only against melee attacks and direct damage spells(i think?)

some may/may not be bugged

[Salem Orchid]

Not many gaurds in Crushbone for a young gnome if i recall

I leveled druid to like 54 without going anon. It's really not a big deal. What you should expect, OP, is mostly to solo :(

There's pvp and groups sprinkled in for some excitement, but especially with exp bonus most of the people you run into will just want to solo. The good news is you'll make level 50 in like 2 weeks! I'd stay on Faydwer until it's time to buy your 19 ports, but that's just me.

[tehruoh]

Expect lots of trolling and general douchebaggery

[Faerie]

Expect FoH/Force/Azrael to grief you while leveling up. Nihilum might give you some gear if you halfheartedly RP a princess. 52+ Nihilum griefs you and Force/Azrael try to recruit you.

The politics here seem largely based around player apathy. You'll see what that means when you get going lol :P

[big league chew]

i can only speak for myself, but now that exp loss is gone from PvP death i only continue to slay if the victim rages out the first time
its really lost the thrill tbh

[BrobbVZ]

We don't grief noobs that are leveling up. Might kill a person, but not corpse camp, bind etc etc. Generally, I tell my guys to leave noobs alone, but those are rare.

[big league chew]

for real who even cares
so someone takes your 7 silver 34 copper
shits classic
throw computer out window if it really makes you that mad

Force generally good people, but with Kimm and some others in their ranks I'd advise noobs to be careful.

Guilds here don't seem to have decided upon KoS/friend lists, and that might bother new players some. Expect to find friends and enemies in all guilds, with no clear reason for any of it.

[big league chew]

friends r overrated

[Pudge]

rolling a druid is good decision.

expect to solo mostly, but be nice to ppl and say hi etc. they may want to group and be friends. if you find a high level player and they believe you are a genuine newb, they will likely give you plat for spells and maybe some trash they got banked (most likely a decent weapon).

the ooc may entertain you while you're medding, but don't let the conversation affect your impression of the majority of the server, as most ppl are not like the ones who /ooc all day

How dare you misrepresent me Faerie :(

I dunno who you are!

The white knight who saved you from kimm!

The white knight who saved you from kimm!

Oh, well thanks again for that :P

Now, which guild were you in?

[FaithlessKR]

Geez I'm just a nobody :(

I'm Azrael

[Kelsar]

What should I expect?

lots of tears

[Faerie]

Geez I'm just a nobody :(

I'm Azrael

I wanted to point out that after saving me from her, you were guilded together.

[Clark]

Nahh Kimm was still in flowers at the time. He joined Azrael the next week

Soon Kim is going to b in nihilism next?

You can't be a white knight if you're guilded with the bad guy a week later. It's disappointing how apathetic everyone is to player reputation here. It was one of the best things about EQ pvp on live, but now no one cares and nothing matters.

I think salt can retain the white knight status

If it makes you feel any better the decision to invite Kimm was the center of a lot of controversy. And I was gone within a couple days of him joining pretty much :P

everyone should slay everyone

everyone has their friends and enemies. but here the biggest enemy is The Zerg™, so guilding with ppl who you've fought in the past/don't care for becomes a necessity. on a low pop server you can't be super choosy about your guildmates

especially now with the removal of exp loss, pvp is about having fun fighting ppl, and not about causing the grief it once was. as an ogre SK who hasn't reached 60 yet (and i started the day the server opened) it opens up some breathing room. It really made it satisfying though when you killed a nilly or two

[Smedy]

you can expect to either get mad, sad or bad there's no winners on red99

[Kevynne]

I win , because I don't care enough to be mad.

[runlvlzero]

The winners are swimmin in the pool electrified with life.

P.S. wait you can win at EQ???? There's some prize at the end of this multi-colored-60hz refresh rate tunnel of light?
