The 350 Concurrent Population Self-Congratulatory Thread

[gusH]

We did it boys. Grats all around

/ooc was poppin off

[SamwiseRed]

got prof?

If you are currently on blue and recognize how over populated it is come over here and get your epic.

500+ people training, leap frogging and lagging the fuck out of blue WW/DN/ToV is going to be a nightmare.

There are hundreds of red success stories. Bring a group of blue pals over and coordinate play sessions a few hours here and there to start making the transition.

Worst case scenario you decide red isn't for you and transfer the red plat you made back at triple its value.

I just want to say thanks to Azrael for single-handedly increasing the server population.

You guys are great! Keep up the good work!

red99 success stories?

needs seperate thread

[Susvain2]

Wooot! I know I'm responsible for some active players coming and trying out the server, let's keeep it up

[Coffee]

I'd like to thank Nirgon amongst other advertisers, and Holocaust for making pvp a fun addition and not end-all surrounded by tryhards eflexing.

Also big shout out to Slosh, Friends, and Fresh. It's a community effort.

holocaust is a step in the right direction, however they are currently using a bias loot council system which awards veterans whatever they want and newer players with shit.

dkp allows people to purchase stuff they really need

A pure DKP or DKP bid system also allows people to sandbag and warmbody in rags until the first Vulak kill and get a BiS item. If you're going to force people to spend it then you're basically back to a council system anyway.

Progression guilds have never ever been pure DKP.

[Qtip]

Cant do dkp in velious. Tanks, clerics and 2 monk pullers have to be geared before everyone else. Pure caster gear should go to enc's for cc and buffing. After that then go to dkp. If a bard/rogue is getting gear over a warrior/monk it is pointless.

What guild are you in again?

[Coffee]

clearly not holocaust, because day 1 raiders get loot over others, so his comment is way off base

also nothing on rot/bank status except some classic specifics in VP

sure u can. u over thinking it. kunark was 6months on live and guilds cleared velious. we got 4 years of kunark gear. we gonna be way better geared come velious

most important thing will be clerics mana pool

[Nirgon]

Go to character select on red and make something you want to play

Don't look back

Blue is FUCKED

[wormed]

I'm trying to level on red but so far I've found at the very low kevels, I couldn't find anyone to group with. Don't have any friends to start with.

However, I'm down for someone to give me a Fiery Defender, for sure. I'll keep plugging at it though.

[Nirgon]

Honestly you'll find groups here and there where you get like 5 lvls tbh

Solo in between

Vaster got a Dragon Hero Bracer a few days ago without even being in the guild for 24 hours

[Nirgon]

Sniffles received a PD earring for his gallantry in derailing a VP train to give us the space we needed to force out the snout on repops.

Cimarron is a recent also a recent BLUE convert that makes most RED raiders look BAD. Received Shroud of Veeshan because of his immediately presented value to the guild.

In both cases, I don't think a single person that has been hard bearding it since Holo day 1 had any problem with either of them getting the top loots that they did. I definitely didn't. I am so glad to have an influx of brave and knowledgeable members who are ready to step up and seize the pixels they deserve.

If you're trying to sand bag DKP and afk raids like the good Duke taught some of you, you got it all backwards. Well if that's your guild contribution strategy and you think that's how people should be rewarded, its going to look real corrupt from where you're sitting.
