For any melee type starting fresh, dramatically cheaper equipment on Blue would easily outweigh Green's modest population advantage. Blue also has a more stable future outlook--as of today, nobody knows what Green's status will be 6-8 months from now. Will it merge into Blue? Will it remain as is? Will Green 2.0 open and leave a separate Green1 to wither on the vine? We don't know, so it's a bit of a dice roll, and not an inconsequential one in a hobby that demands as much of a time investment as EQ does.
