so true <3 this
"perfect environment for a casual", not too sure about that. My idea of a "casual player" is someone that probably solo's more than groups, because they do not have the time to spend in a group for hours at a time. Sure they will group if they can but mostly solo.

I am afraid that a LOT of classes on P1999 are really not cut out to solo much of anything in Velious that they will get XP on. You will be lucky to kill light blues. And then even if you can you will either be oom or out of HP. Either way you are going to have to sit on your butt for 8 minutes to get either back. Hardly a LOT of fun for a casual. And a lot of zones in Velious are sort of like the Karanas. Large zones with not a lot of mobs concentrated in them. A Tracking character will be a big help.

I play in Velious probably 3 times a week on other servers and played in it when it came out on a Ranger, Ghetto Gated a lot. [You must be logged in to view images.

And a lot of the zones are a million miles long if you have to run back to your corpse, which by the way, you will do a lot lol.

I am not saying Velious sucks it is just Hard Mode compared to now and I think it will be a bit frustrating to new and casual players. But nobody is going to turn down the expansion coming out on here. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
