Keep the 10xp gain when Server goes live ?

[Element]

I was wondering what you guys think about seeing if they would keep 10X xp ( like in beta) or 5X xp when they make it live. My reasoning for this is because we have all done the grind before and for classic xp it just takes too long. Even with the xp bonus you still need to grind a little bit. I am one who would like to be able to play a couple of different chars at different levels when I choose, for instance I've never made a bard, but not something I would choose if I made only one main class to play. So share your thoughts and throw your votes. This is good for the casual gamer too that has to work all week and only has a Saturday or Sunday afternoon to play. Plus I think PVP is funner at 50, then when 2 50's battle it out there is only one champion, all squabble's aside, one person owned another.

I wish but will not happen.

[Harrison]

Never going to happen.

This makes 6+ threads now crying about experience rate I think now.

MMO's are time sinks. Rushing them defeats the purpose, especially in eq. Just play what you like and take it one day at a time.

[Syriusly]

I don't get it... The point of EQ is that it's slow to a certain extent. It gives you time to meet new people, kill new people, become friends with the people you kill, and get loot. This exp bonus on beta from a play standpoint has caused nothing but problems for the people I've been leveling with. It's made huge gaps between our levels and not to mention that no body can ever afford their spells at the actual level they are supposed to have them. This server may not be completely classic with it's pvp rules but the rest of it should be as classic as possible..

This game is about the journey not the destination.

[Element]

Yea , I understand that MMo's are an investment of time, but when theres not thousands of people playing on a server .... It's hard to find a reliable descent grind group that will help you achieve your goals.

[deakolt]

I'd vote for like 2x normal exp or something along those lines

WORD UP! EXP bonus is the worst thing that can happen in a fucking MMO. Just look at the Beta, I haven't seen a single 6 man group anywhere and I've been soloing loads in dungeons.

[canardvc]

People asking for an xp bonus don't know what they are talking about obviously. so no

[Softcore PK]

lol, what's wrong with exping guys?

we want the server to last, right? 5x and 10x exp would only help to kill it.

[tbox]

If people quit because the xp is way too slow that is going to hurt population as well. I believe another poster already indicated that Classic PVP had a 20% xp bonus over normal blue servers. Exp bonuses on pvp eq servers is not a new concept. Rogean is all about server population so if you have a problem with the xp rate you can always vote with your feet by not login on.

[Bockscar]

This is ridiculous and will never happen.

From what I gather xp bonus were active on Sullon cause they had an xp loss on pvp death. 20% xp bonus

[Sprinkle]

classic xp = failed server , accept it and move on

with xp loss from pvp and all the griefing + slow leveling = casuals gone , most hardcores gone , only left with the people you dont want existing in the world

almost every faggot is going to go buy a new winter release game how many you think will be on the server logged in when you sit down at your comp

maybe enough for 1 guild , hope you are in it or your farmed

[Softcore PK]

Blue99 seems to be doing well without exp bonus. Why would reds quit over that? I thought y'all were hardcore :/

Confirmed vztzject that can't handle low rate experience.(which is infinitely faster than Live ever was in '99-'00)

Glad you can see the future Nostradamus.

Also like how any one who buys a game this winter are "faggots".

Seriously quit posting it's lowering my IQ just skimming past it.

[tbox]

Interesting that votes for some xp increase is gaining momentum over no xp increase in the voting. (5x votes + 10x votes)

I think Sprinkle has a point that come December 20, 2011 the Star Wars mmo comes out.

[Bockscar]

I think this entire project proves that new games do not threaten the remaining Everquest community. If none of the games released in the last three years did it, some doomed-to-fail Star Wars title won't do it either. Maybe Diablo 3 will cut the playerbase in half for a couple of months, but games these days don't last much longer than that.

[Knuckle]

Diablo 3 looks p cool =x

[Bockscar]

Diablo 3 looks p cool =x

I'm gonna call it:

Diablo 3 will look nice and shiny, and you'll suck a dick for it for the first couple of months. Then the modern game design philosophy will shine through, the profoundly retarded RL$ economy will wreck the game, and you'll be right back here playing a game from 1999.

[Palemoon]

"but I have a life!"

Fine, then be satisfied leveling slower then the "basement dwellers"

problem solved

[gloinz]

whoops multi post

[gloinz]

gloinz will b playin d3 hardcore just like d2 hardcore

Increasing the exp rate wouldn't do anything. You still have to grind greens for a while to get spells.

[Rust1d?]

Hey tbox, we getting the gang together for this server or what?

xp should be maybe 1.5 or something, no higher. The Starwars MMO is gonna fail and the only thing that looks good is GW2 and Everquest next. Those will not be out for a while. I think the population will be fine.

[Cwall]

element told me low level pvp sucks and that he only wants to pvp at level 50 when he has lots of good gear

also low level pvp is corny according to him

yo element bro you probably shouldn't even play because i'm not sure if you'll ever hit level 50 considering nobody will group with you when you go full retard like you always do

also he's homophobic and hates homosexuals with a passion

[L1ch]

Classic all the way.

[Dontmez_Mebro]

So are they allowing character transfers from blue? Seems like a bad idea to me. I am coming to this server because (A) it's a fresh start, and (B) It's progression. It's hardly a fresh start if every lvl 50 from blue is running around power leveling people.

I highly agree and enough said. Definitely a no for exp. bonus.

[Dojii]

every pixel counts on real xp

You don't pay much attention, do you?

It's for beta only.

[Spud]

Probably won't happen but I really would NOT MIND an exp bonus on this server. After returning to EQ I didn't mind the whole grind once again but now I just want to experience some PvP and don't think I will have the time to level ANOTHER char up to 50 again.

The 10x exp on the beta has really spoiled me.

[Giovanni]

I don't really care either way about the exp bonus. What I do care about is pvp. If I find myself investing 10 hours of mindless grinding for 5 minutes of pvp.... I might look at other forms of entertainment.

[Galacticus]

I say 5 % at release and 10% when kunark hits.

[Softcore PK]

A big exp bonus would be too much, I want to play EQ and despite popular belief EQ does not start at level 50.

Something like 10-20% would be good, if it steals some bluebies away from Blue99.

[mitic]

stupid poll is stupid

[Nirgon]

The entire server isn't solely about pvp only and racing to max level. There's *gasp* PvE elements too, and low/mid level PvP. By suggesting this I'm a total bluebie I'm sure.
