The problem with ancients is that they will never, ever lose gear. They will win 90% of 1 vs 1 fights vs new blood. New blood will lose xp, over and over. This will make the server bleed population.

Solution is to put in sets of no drop gear, the kind that was patched in 2001 with the halloween event. So people either roll around naked, with gear they can afford to lose, or take the time to build up a no drop set that gives them at least a chance vs twinks.

Noobs who defeat a twink, maybe by grouping up 3v1 (which gives them something to look forward to) will have a chance to loot a nice piece of gear. They will now decide if they want to wear this piece or trade it for plats to buy say, sow pots to quad.

This will reinvigorate the economy, making people buy and sell again, make pvp interesting again.

And for the finale, of course, remove xp loss and bring the Rallos way of dying which was low health no mana.

This is how i think you could revitalize the server.

Launch Kunark with this and id bet 1000$ that wed see numbers again.
The "ancients" you are talking about have been griefed off the server. Nihilum dosent run around on dragon twinked alts griefing noobs, thats what holobad and FFers did to help themselves feel better after failing yet another contested raid target (i.e. all of them, for 8 months).

The "ancients" here , help noobs.

You can thank the white knights of Nihilum for this.
