Coming in here after reading quite a bit. I do agree with both sides.
Side 1 - if you play enough you will eventually get the gear you need (not necessarily the camp)
I have almost 3 level 50s and they are severely under geared as I tend to not buy gear for sake of playing the game. I have been out for the last 3 weekends trying to find that dick Bilge... which isn’t usually camped. So there are those certain camps that are not consta-camped. And if you have the time as a solo player (I think someone mentioned 12 hours a day) you're sure to get in a group for at least an hour of that 12.
Side 2 - Every zone with any gear is camped. and 50s are camping the gear solo.
Yes. that is happening. Why? because 50s cant get into a group when the named is level appropriate because its perma-camped and they suddenly see that they can get in on their own not needing a group. Why not? So the issue built itself.
However, I feel that with everyone now staying home and the world forced to live in a different reality to survive... not being able to get a group with friends or being forced to sit and wait for a group for 11 hours... just to get 1 upgrade you’ve needed for 6 months, doesn’t seem like the spirit of the game is still intact. Sure I have 1 twink that is probably better geared than my 50s because I bought it all. That toon has played a total of 2 hours.
So, I agree with the person that started this post. It’s one thing to have to wait your turn for other dicks like Stormfeather. But hours upon hours of hoping you find a roamer that’s not affiliated with a camp (god forbid) in hopes to get a good spot, could be helped (not rectified, but helped) with unmerging the servers... at least for a short time.
Remember, it’s a game not a job. If people aren’t having fun….
