It seems like a mistake for me to have rolled on green actually. Green had nothing going for it other than more players, which means more competition for camps, very little benefit esp as a solo class
What other negatives does green have?
1. Melee damage tables are crap on Green, and pets are overpowered in comparison. I wondered why literally 9/10 players in any zone are necromancers. I was watching a let’s play of a ranger who was 10 levels higher than my chanter, and my lev 20 animation pet was doing 15 damage more per hit than his char. This is fine for me as a pet class, but I wanted to reroll a SK who is going to be even more gimp than normal when compared to the pet classes until the melee tables get reworked like a year from now. So that reroll is out the window for me. Looks like I’m rerolling the server’s 93748492 necromancer
What else... oh yea, there’s no ability to cycle through targets which REALLY sucks as an enchanter, making me rely on trying to click around the massive oversized invisible hit o Ed of mobs in order to cc. I’m trying to select a flying HUMONGOUS charmed Griffawn that’s attacking a wisp, and all I can select is the stupid freaking 1 centimeter tall wisp because classic EQ’s hit boxes are ridiculous
What else....oh yea the economy is still super inflated, and clicking the wiki prices on Blue before selecting Green will just depress the shit out of you. “Ooh only 300plat, I can afford this item, oh wait oops that’s blue, let me check green, oh it’s selling for 1500pp, YAY!”
What else....this is more minor but if you ever wanted to raid you would have a snowball’s chance in hell on blue but basically zero chance on green from what I’ve read on forums. This goes back to the too competitive, too many camps overpopulation issue
I basically regret my decision to roll on green and if I didn’t already save up about 4K worth of pp, I’d switch in a heartbeat if I was offered the same char on Blue

This guy listed a lot of good reasons to play on green. Green is at a different point in the timeline and it is cool to deal with quality of life issues as God intended. I guess I haven't played on blue or green in a long enough time because I could always get whatever I wanted when I played on blue. The prices on green reflect actual desirability of items and its a way better place to play. I remember when Yak sword went from being uber elite, to O.K. and decent for fashion for people that were behind the times in kunark, to being o.k. but really quite outdated in velious, to being vendor fodder in Luclin.
Its nicer when the yak is worth big bucks IMO.
