Is it ok to have 2 eq's running on separate computors with one character on Green and the other on Teal? Or is that technically boxing? I'd rather find out here than get banned trying lol

The rule is just 1 character per actual person on the same server. You could use one PC to run a character each on green, teal, blue, and red at the same time if you like.

They actually reduced certain drops cause they knew people would play both. So technically you are at a disadvantage if you don’t play both at once. Fun right.

You can even box green/teal/blue all on one PC. And red if you believe that's an actual server.

Is there a source for this? Sounds like one of those player-made urban legends. Why would the developers think people would play both at once? I don’t know a single person in my guild that does that, and it’s a fairly large sample size.

I finally started playing both last night. Been enjoying a lot of solo time on my enchanter on green, but most solo camps include a bit of downtime, either medding, waiting on respawn or waiting for a desired camp to open.

Group spots usually involve getting on a list and waiting for a spot.

Rolled a druid on Teal last night while camping Treants in SK. Druid is nearly level 4 after going from 31-32 on treants in a few hours.

Great way to keep the time moving rather than just watching TV/YouTube.

Oh, and I have to say the folks on Teal are awesome! Got hooked up with gear by 3 different people in 3 hours of sitting around and randomly killing. My level 3 druid has 20pp, 2 FS weapons, a few Split Paw pieces and a shield ! Thanks to everyone that helped and for being awesome!

Staff said drop rates haven’t been changed in years. I think it’s just a rumor. Plus, if they split Green server to spread out a large population, why constrict items going to that large population? The devs don’t care how many manastones there are.

It is at this time a player made urban legend. There is no evidence of this anywhere.

You are welcome to play green and red together, just like Christmas
