Timeline of New Server
By Dr. Heartbergstein
Month One: Tons of pvp in newbie zones and other hot exp spots such as Oasis / South Karana. A couple of fun clashes between the power gamers in Sol B & Guk.
Month Two: One PvE focused guild has emerged, majority of it's members are now level 50 or close to level 50, and are beginning to do Vox & Nagafen. Once this guild has established itself, most people will try to app. Couple of other smaller "pvp" guilds who are all fighting each other and ignore large PvE focused guild. Nagafen kill comes first, followed by Vox a week later. Most of these PvE players only logging in to kill the dragons or farm a MS if they don't have one yet. Some will begin preparing their melee alts for Kunark launch.
Month Three: Pop has died down, most newbie zones and mid level exp zones are now empty. Sole pvp spots are now Guk and Sol B between the EQ Lifer's who farm away constantly. Planes come out shortly. CT is killed day one by PvE guild. Guild begins getting lustrous armor. Server pop is in low 30's outside of raid time. People begin asking for a wipe, PvE guild members ask for Kunark launch.
the end.
