Server population/community

[toofly]

Hey, guys. A friend of mine was thinking of coming back to EQ but wanted to play on a pvp server. I said I'd make a dude with him but he asked a few questions I was hoping you guys might be able to answer. Basically, we were just wondering if there is a significant enough population that you can actually find groups or join guilds that do content. Also, does anyone really raid here, do epics, etc? Lastly, how is the pvp action? is it more focused in the lower levels like teens and 20s, or is there a lot of top end pvp like 50s and 60?

Thanks, guys.

you can find groups. plenty of new people are starting up all the time or making twinks. you're going to get griefed along the way so if you aren't down for that might want to reconsider. yes to raiding/epics/etc several guilds can help you with that. pvp is so-so. one guild runs around with 2-3 times the number of everyone else.

[HippoNipple]

You can duo to 50+ easy.

All guilds do epics.

Holocaust does all end game content.

Fresh is up and coming.

Azrael and FoH farm group content. FoH is currently working on Guk and Azrael has made it's way to Kunark.

fresh is the only guild that really helps lower level players start out on the server; they're building a higher level core and have started to tackle entry-level raid content on their own

holocaust is by far the most dominant endgame raiding guild; they kill 99% of raid mobs that spawn every week, including everything in veeshan's peak, but they only recruit people in their mid-to-late 50s

the curse is a newer guild that is starting to recruit and they seem to mostly be in their 30s and 40s; not sure exactly what their plans are, but i heard their plan was to stay low 50s and attempt raid content while being out of pvp level range to holocaust

azrael is a guild that attempts endgame content but has been a cyclical failure for the past several years; their focus really isn't on building a guild but instead trying to grief people, bend the rules as often as they can, and frame/bait others in order to get them suspended/banned

friends is a group of geared out and high level players that used to be azrael core but left the guild due to being sick of the leadership and direction of azrael; they seem to have tight recruitment, their core has a large percentage of european players, and they don't seem to have many goals outside of attempting to down low-tier raid content with small numbers while the larger guilds are fighting over the high-tier mobs

[toofly]

Cool, thanks guys. I expect to be griefed, oh man. once we figure out what classes we want to play we're going to roll some chars. see you on the battlefield.

tl;dr if you like zerging and being a warm body but love pixels join holocaust. if you don't you have other options.

i'm glad my taxes pay for your unemployment. you're welcome.

p.s. when you get a job you get to use "advanced" application such as the Microsoft Office Suite that come with great spelling and grammar tools. Look forward to that one day if you ever get a job.

Just some advice.

Don't give out any RL info because people like quido will stalk you. I would advise you to not let anyone know what state you are from.

[quido]

Ya I love coming to the P99 forums and addressing people by their real names like Azrael made a habit of until they got banned for it.

O wait

[MavstabYoudead]

someone want to post the blue video of Jeremy sperging out? sick individual letting a game impact his life so greatly!

[toofly]

o dear what have i done

[daasgoot]

this is just a sneak preview..

it gets much worse.

welcome to red.

[Rekrul]

You can clearly see how this community is

Avoid the forums at all costs, your soul is still pure. It is too late for me but for the love of god save yourself.

[wormed]

The server seems ok. It's mostly the population number that kinda has me shying away.

[Ando]

Cool, thanks guys. I expect to be griefed, oh man. once we figure out what classes we want to play we're going to roll some chars. see you on the battlefield.

Avoiding/Defeating the griefers is actually part of the fun when you're leveling up. Once you hit ~30 a group has a solid chance of killing a twink because fungi regen relative to your damage is much smaller.

[Lhtalon]

I just signed up a few days ago and the population is fine.

No problems getting groups or teaming up with people in popular areas and I've even done a bit of PvP already. The exp bonus is unreal and I'm having a blast. Over 300 people logged on the other night.

Give it a try! Well worth it.

It's toxic, leave while you're still behind.

Most people in game aren't like this. Most people in this thread are no lifers who been here the last 6 years, still fighting over stupid shit.
Server is fun if you treat it like a game and just have fun. Leveling is fast so even if you dont enjoy the server, it isn't any type of long investment. And its free. Enjoy the server if you decide to give it a try.

then the people talking shit in this thread ya.

gym fight didn't happen. wasn't going to be a fight i merely provided a location for someone to not show up to.

[MavstabYoudead]

:cool:

p.s. don't do drugs or trade them for pixels.

[Zlain]

Smoke lots of weed and laugh at the ego freaks that dlvl characters to kill rag wearers cause they can't hack it at top tier. Like how bad must your life be that that is something you have to do to get enjoyment?

With all the rage and moronic comments in this thread there ARE people on the server generally trying to make it better and show new people that the server isn't full of egocentric narcissists, people like Cid/Urza and some of the upper levels in Fresh.

I just like you had reservations about joining this server when I first started here a couple weeks ago, within 20mins I was bind camped on 2 dif occasions by 2 different biS twinks, Took a few days break after that when I came back I hauled ass out of faydwear and leveled in Antonica outside the reach of most dlvl/bis twink chars. Met a couple Fresh members, Urza, and the like. So yeah, avoid or ignore the dumb shit here on the forums, stay away from Faydwear at low levels, and you should be good.

Welcome to the server, as a humble azrael member, couple of tips. Don't take pvp personal, just call LnS if someone kills you and you want to grab your corpse. If someone does kill you, and you want xp, ask them if they will grant you the ability to XP in the zone. I also think Fresh is a great leveling up guild, Holo will show you dragons and loot but won't help you unless its in their best interest, I have been in all the guilds and a close knit crew with solid leaders that like to pvp is where I ended up. Whatever your path may be, have fun.
