I did try it, back when Derubael made his recruitment thread that had to be followed up with this gem due to people being shitheads.

http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=150387&highlight=Posts

So I log onto red, level some, and decide to try out Crushbone with a group of 3 others. Destroyed by twinks being healed by a much higher level druid.

Leveled up some more in a remote area, but was asked to group again for the exp bonus with the location being Unrest. Had fun for almost an hour until destroyed by twinks being healed by a much higher level druid.

I think I might have stuck it out for a bit more excepting the shit talking my group and I got for thinking we could use a dungeon zone to level in, and how terribad our PvP skills were in the face of out-of-range heal support.

Since the players back then didn't want new people to actually have fun and PLAY on the server, my time of considering red came to an end. Fucked up resist codes + no item loot so Fungi twinks are in no jeopardy of losing their shit = fuck that server.

[Pokesan]

I too base my opinions of a server on what happens in a level 10 zones

[NegaStoat]

I see your point, but give me a bone here. Do you think Red would be more entertaining and inspire more competition for lower level players to actually turn tables and seek out better geared targets and mug them for their loot? On Rallos Zek that was the order of the day, and I did play there. Granted, I only played to the 30's with some friends but it was a reality of the server and it was one of the reasons why we chose to roll there.

Take that away, and all you give is no risk and all reward for people griefing targets in popular zones, forcing players to enjoy that 'sweet group exp bonus' in remote locations. And that's cool too - IF it's an adjustment you're willing to accept.

Many of us are here on the server to play a game rich with nostalgia in zones we had fun in 15 years ago. If Blue is the place to do that without bullshit, then that's the solution we're left with.

i can confirm this post is false. you played EC tunnel dress up full time on fennin ro.

[NegaStoat]

Yup, I got trolled and owned. I'll admit it. But it is satisfying to fall back on the fact that Red will always have 85-90% fewer players than Blue because the best answer they can come up with in getting new players is "consider red" posts, with zero effort on keeping players that try the server.

I'll give Teams a shot, assuming there's item loot. If it's coin only + high group exp welfare state rules only, it's shit.

Longer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIc1VrJc92k (11 mins)

If you know you can't win, you can still make it so that they get mad or have to spend 10 minutes trying to get a yellow text. The novelty soon wears off.

I'd support this. Or reboot EC, same effect.

[rayeatts]

definitely considering red right now.

Only questions i have are about trading and grouping.

How are players supposed to do these things with strangers who might attack them?

[Swish]

99% of trading is done at the banks. Usually if one party is kos to the banker they invis in and out, and bank using the wall trick.

As for grouping, its not much different than blue...what use is killing your group mates when you're all trying to get some levels? I did turn on an iksar SK in MM shortly before I lost my internet... frequent afks, turned out he was playing his guitar instead of tanking and slowing shit down because the rogue tanked and needed more heals.

Me and a good pal took care of him, he was mad and logged off.

Ive trusted a stranger to trade something like 1/10 times and it was fine, though my heart was racing.

Technically fraud is not allowed on either box and they will be bant if they try to scam you, but if they destroy the item or spend the plat whatever, you wont get it back in some cases.

So Generally red is is a blood is thicker than water server. You build stronger bonds, make lasting ingame frendships and find a guild that you can fight for.

Then you ask for ports with no tips, transfers, rez's etc all from your buddies.

And you also roll a utility class to level up just to help them in return eventually.

Dude was literally running around in circles not losing life until he got mobbed by nearly a half dozen noobs who also had the benefit of outside buffs.

Remember, it was ME who got you started there :)

[rayeatts]

I think i'm going to make a guy on red. I'm thinking a necromancer. Are they strong in pvp?

[iruinedyourday]

sure pal what u need?

[iruinedyourday]

necro is not the most powerful PVP class tbh but at 49 you can drop ebolts on people pretty well.

and they are pretty much the easiest farm class to roll and so youll be able to gear your main that you end up re-rolling well.

If you want to go for pvp rogue/monk/druid/wizard/ranger are some good classes to think about.

Farming is mage/enc/necro/shaman

maybe im leaving some classes out but w/e

I was doing shaman first and all my pals were telling me to reroll monk or rogue and I told em nah.. but I shoulda listened!

That said, its fun to level up characters so just re-roll while the xp is good on red! :)

Honestly i think a CERTAIN (GRANDMASTER FIREGIANT OF NORRATH WHO LIVES IN A BOG) is off their proverbial rocker if they think most guilds not Empire or TMO will regullarly field 10 peeps

Here's to hoping, and thanks a ton for the halp :)

And yes Necros are pretty good in pvp there are a lot of newbs in their guild robes out there with no resists and no poison cure pots, u could do well if you pick the right levels and spots to fight in.

I've gotten WREKT in CoM on multiple occasions even with gear and pots, some zones DMF > then all.

[Doors]

Donkey boner.

[Stormfists]

I too base my opinions of a server on what happens in a level 10 zones

What occurs in these zones is a reflection of the mentality of the people at the higher end. Your all fuckwits :)

As I said earlier, ban fungi twinks from Cb, Unrest + MM and your pop will increase by 30% overnight. Consider that.

[Swish]

They're not invincible at all, and I can think of a dozen examples where I've seen twinks chased out after having their buffs dispeled.

Not played him in a while now but one rogue twink literally gave up trying to kill by bard because I spent 10-15 minutes kiting him around CB and he couldn't get in range often enough to do enough dps (just gave him the occasional hit to keep him hoping). Play them at their own game, they hate it and end up looking like idiots lol.

I got Slathar'd once a long time ago before they nerfed BD jewelry. Me and some pals were leveling in Highkeep and this wizard turns up...couldn't land shit on him.

Every time he'd get low he'd run to Ran Flamespinner to hide citing some bullshit about Sun Tzu or whoever and using the terrain to his advantage.

[Seltius]

Something you don't understand or choose not to accept is the fact that the griefers and twinks your so worried about don't relevel. So with the xp bonus if your in range more than a day or 2 then your doing it wrong. They also don't travel normally unless you piss them off so if they are in Unrest you go elsewhere. It is the same with MM or SolB or whatever.

You have to deal with them each time you level a new toon but you level so much faster than you do on blue fighting for mobs.

[Swish]

Yeah they don't travel, they'd lose buffs which is their worst nightmare.

Level past them and do your best to troll them and bait them while they're there. I do ;)

Pretty much this. MM/unrest have been the gank hotspots in my short experience on red so far. Stay away if it really scares you that much, but a good group in MM can crush 20-30 in a few hours, so even if you were hit a few times you're in the clear soon.

if someone's really worried about twinks killing them, roll an iksar. their starting zones are great 1-25+ and i promise you will never see a pvp twink the entire time! by the time you're level 30, you're pretty much safe until you're in range of level 60 if you don't hang out in planes/sebilis.

I tried red a while back it was ok... I met a rogue who was cool and rolled with him , I guess nihilium really liked him and hooked him up. Despite being hooked up a monk destroyed our whole group in unrest. He was cool about it tho. I remember the dude Imawizard was the biggest d-bag ever. Dude made a point to hunt my ass lol... Very interesting time for sure.. I had a Druid I think lvl 20 or 21 I'd consider trying again but maybe making new guys with people I know if I can get them to try...
