View Full Version : The great compromise of 2020

I want a new pvp server, many of us do.

Or a wipe, which we both know will never happen.

Now, we can have overly specific, on the spectrum level discussions over teams composition, item loot, and the implications of yellow text that all generally lead nowhere.. or we can discuss a viable temporary solution while the staff allegedly cooks up pvp development behind the scenes for red 2.0.

Unroot the dragons.

Now, I say this as a guy who was never a Dukesman, in Empire, or Apex. I haven't logged on in probably a year. But I think with this one change we could see a prime time population resurgence back to the 150s and I could justify logging in and engaging in some Mistmoore PvP with my bros after my wife and kids go to bed.

I think that's a pretty reasonable compromise after years and years of red neglect, pending any future development.

No staff will read or respond to this and someone (probably Jeremy or Lite) will shill RoZ.

Green players are more toxic than red ever was - change my mind.

Shout out to the brave 40 sanctuary elves holding down the box.

Rooted dragons are, like the seafury nerfs... problems inherited from blue which never really applied to red.

If anything nerfing the seafuries took out one of the best pvp areas.

It's a shame.

Dragons were rooted on live so people couldnt pull them

Yeah, but not until Luclin I think. It's out of era for p99.

People aren't coming to P1999 <Non Green> to have a truly Classic experience - they are coming to slay dragons. Give them the ability on P1999 Blue/Red to slay dragons in a classic yet capable way. If they want the truly Classic experience, they'll roll green. Thus, as many people are served as possible without pushing away current Blue/Red tryhards. Warders? Blue/Red is where you can find them, but Green will never respawn after initial kill. Rooted dragons? Head to Green for your Classic experience. Go to Blue/Red to slay dragons without root for maximum Gearscore.

I respect what you are trying to do here, but this really skirts the issue.

We NEED a wipe or a fresh PvP box.

A lot of us want to play. A lot of you would like us to play with/against you. Needs to be circumstance where us prospectives can enter with an equal (or near equal) playing field.

It is also bad timing with green. I was fully onboard with joining a new red, but me and pals are kinda having a blast on green atm and there aren't enough hours in the day.

Rogaen understands this and why he is waiting for the perfect timing. When that is? Maybe a period with long stretch of no patching like after temple of solro patch (also things like manastone, LR, rubi gets removed at this point, reducing the sense of urgency among the bluebies).

people 4 boxing on RoZ = essentially same population between servers

I loved being bound at seafuries on Tyva. It was always a good time, win or lose.

At least red99 outlived* Brad, but at what cost?

*And by lived I mean the same quality of life as someone who lived in a medically-induced coma with a feeding tube in an iron lung who's jamaican nurse stole his watch and neglected him.
