Velious Beta

[doraf]

Why not just setup a Velious Beta server and clone toons on there like was done preKunark? This way people can run through quests and raid encounters and report bugs. I would imagine it Velious could be completed so much faster this way.

This server is in serious need for more content or at the minimum similated patch days. Last night was a joke with 92 people on Faydedar. There are too many lvl 60's with nothing to do and no mobs to kill.

While I do agree with you that new content would help, this server's population has increased greatly in the past 6 or so months. I can only imagine the influx of people when velious launches.

i came with the mass influx of people when kunark launched, back then it was common to see 800-900 people on at primetime, eventually it dwindled to the low pop we saw this summer, with velious on the horizon it seems people are coming back or starting fresh, its just a cycle... unfortunately for us velious will be the end of the cycle so after the initial population burst it will eventually taper back off again

::edit:: on topic tho im sure they will host a beta when they are ready for it bro's, patience is a virtue

Why are virtues important? Are they for a quest?

Serious question, will Kunark Dragons and VP really open up for casual guilds when Velious comes or will they just be added to list of locations locked down by one guild. This isn't meant to be a troll seriously.

I doubt there would be a point. Donal BP's will be nerfed and VP will have a few good items, Trak and VP will def open to more guilds. IMO, even with VP open a casual guild is going to get more loot and have more fun farming Velious.

Trust me TMO has enough people to lock down Kunark and Velious Raids. I am not knocking them. If you are top dog you are for a reason.

We'd let most kunark mobs slip once velious hits, you know, minus the usual suspects. e.g. PD's loot is still more than viable til Velious' end.

Personally Velious raids very much so trump all Kunark content, Vel is a gear centric progression so there is a vast range a difference in intro to end gear... Kunark was level progression and item, so the usefulness of intro level items etc are still of fairly good use in compare to end...

with the aside of PharaDar and a few choice other things Vel will take vast priority over kunark, deff before the gods change/upgrade .. Vel also has waaay more raid targets spread out, so keeping timers and trackers on them is going to take resources and priority away from kunark and classic.
