Some more no drop stuff would be cool, but it is a fallacy to say that lowbies just cant play the game. By level 20 you have enough money for banded as a melee and the most money you can lose there is 15pp for a bp. Adamantite rings are cheap and mean most careful players can suicide short of bad luck anyways.

The modt negatively effected would be the level 60 casual, but these are helped in velioud when so many new no drop pieces bevome available.

I want to know where these item loot horror stories come from.
It's not that new players can't play the game here, it's just that in any MMO (especially one that has had the same level cap for 3 years like here) there is a very small percentage of the population that is low level. RZ had 5-10x the population of this server at any given time.

And things like adamantite rings may be cheap in a server with a normal Kunark era live economy, but scan the auction postings and how much low level gear do you see people bother selling?

If you don't think there are more than a few people who will run around with deleveled planar geared and epic'd characters with pocket druids killing newbies than you haven't experienced the joy of R99 long enough. The last place we should be talking about item loot is for low level people. If anything, make level 60 a tier to itself, figure out how to flag oor healers/buffers PVP eligible and enable it on the top end only.
