I mean... even frenzied ghouls are green XP for a 60 aren't they? Chief in droga too? Bodyguards and EoE guy would be affected. Seafuries and hill giants wouldn't be. Stuff like lev cloaks would become a cartel controlled by level 40-something rangers selling loot rights to 60s instead of a cartel controlled by level 60 rangers selling loot rights to 60s. Stuff like pyzjn and hadden and goblin earring guy and whatnot would be a bit more available to lower-levels, but they'd also just get focused on by alts of 60s as they are leveling since they know they can't do them at 60. /shrug

It takes me all of one (very long) day to get a ranger to 40. Even less with bard PL and characters with pb aoe spells. It'd be a small hindrance to those with means and ruinous to 60 warriors still farming lowbie shit :P

I think it's a good idea. Rewarding bottom feeding is bad design.

Don't go chasin' waterfalls.

Doesn't work for EQ...too much stuff that is useful, even needed, drops off green mobs.

I like the rare drop items event though. If this was in classic we should do it here! It would be a very cool fun night.

Everyone and their mom would make new toons, twink the shit out of them, and then have plvl capable classes help them clear entire zones. Of course, only those already rich would be capable of doing it, so it wouldn't evenly benefit anyone. No matter how carefully it was planned, the neckbeards in TMO would find a way around it and just get handed more loot.
