Default Instead of Wiping or Changing RED99 Add a FV/SZ Item Loot Ruleset type server.

Instead of Wiping or totally changing Red 99, just add a differnt server, call it Purple for all I care... do a a FV/SZ Item Loot Ruleset type server.

Red 99 is fully invested in, and fun for those who like it, I say let it run its course through Velious, and when Velious Launches add a Classic Era Time/Event locked server with all items trad-able and droppable with the exception of Epics, and certain class or end game quests such as Coldain Ring Spirit wracked Cords, Eyepatch of Plunder, Jboots, Sky Quests ect...

Planar, Thurg, Skyshrine sets are fully lootable... so are Bracers of Benevolence type stuff...


Features to have...

-Progression Server, Both teams have to unlock the content at least 3 times each for the server to progress...

- Item loot like RZ

- Everything pretty much Trad-able like FV...

- Teams Like SZ, except 2 teams, ( saw on Wermarchts post, think its a good idea)

-No boxing, as much as it pains me....

- a large Group Exp Bonus ( like 200% )

- server exp bonus of 75%

- Exp loss on a PVP death... ( only 9% of a full exp death)

- loot tokens from pvp kills that can be traded at your city for faction + potions ( like summon corpse

- can summon corpse to POD 3 or 4 hours after death...

- Player can switch teams in exchange for 10 Levels if under level 50, 7 levels if over level 50... plus a huge amount of plat and a painfull quest...

- Items such as Manastone, Guise, Fungi staff, COS, ect always drop/ quest, just at a reduced rate once its supposed to be nerfed... Also can always bind at Pots, ect...

So new players are never at a disadvantage...


Dark Elf Team:

Dark Elves,
Ogres,
Iksars,
Trolls,
Half Elves ( Bards, Paladins, Druids, Rangers)
Iksars
Erudites


Human Team:

Human,
Halfling
Barbarian
Gnome
Wood Elf
Dwarf
High Elf

Any Thoughts?

And no I dont play either P99 server at this point... but played on just about every VZTZ and Guildwars server...

why does everything think they have a better idea for teams? use the fuckin SZ ruleset. human team vs dark elf team makes no fucking sense. teams should be deity based to fit in with lore.

Because the teams on SZ and TZ were broke as shit, I played both...

What I think would work would be 2 teams that both have access to all the classes...
Put the Half elves in Rathe mountains with guild trainers and spell vendors, and unkos in Neriak, Ogguk and Overthere...

Both teams have the same classes so you can join either team and complete for end game content, both teams hardcoded like on SZ..

Also server wide announcement when CT, Inni, Trak, Naggy, VS spawn would be pretty sweet...

And no nothing I am saying is new, I dont think it has all been done on one server,
With Item loot and FV rules with 2 teams this would really be a PVP centric server... gearing up will be all about PVP and Raiding with your team / guild...

Also Classic Resists for the win, Just make chanter nukes, mez, and cleric nukes land a little easier than classic..

I agree with this, but I had a lot of fun RPing elf team on VZ :P

Dead Dwarf: "wtf y did u pk me im lite team"

Heroic Elf: "You dwarves are raping Norrath with your mining operations, and are bringing about Tunare's Wrath in the form of global warming!"

Dead Dwarf: "fuck u"

there is no way they're going to massively overhaul the server in any way if you can't get rogaine to take 3 minutes out of his day to fix the exp bonus to what it's supposed to be

still though forumquest is booming atm keep it up dudes

Thank You, This suggestion has nothing to do with Red 99...
This would be just another 99 type server that runs along side it...
I say Keep Red 99, wiping peoples pixels is bad business...
Just add a more PVP centric server... Red 99 is just BLUE 99 where you dont wait in line...

What I am suggesting is a server where PVP itself would be a Huge part of improving your character while still having a team to play with, instead of like on RZ where item loot made you an outcast.. and No drop made you Godly... Almost nothing will be no drop... so do 4 lvls + _ for PVP looting but have no level limit in raid zones.. just no looting of items on players 4 or 5 levels lower... so yeah you can farm newbs, just cant loot... also have to do most of the damage plus kill shot to get credit... Bagging allowed.. Just some ideas for an alternate server with a focus on Team vs Team PVP.

Have some PVP Exp loss ( was thinking 9% of normal exp loss if you have items that are loot-able equipped, 25% if you are fully no drop ) to discourage bind rushing, make it much worse on naked or no drop bind rushers..

As much as i would like a new server and it sure sounds like fun i don't think "Team project1999" is going to take this on, cause they are just that... Trying to emulate 1999.

Perhaps when Eqclassic releases their source we can make something like this, only trouble is, reliable hosts are not all over the place, and if it's something is god damn great at it's running these servers.

You don't see him running of to ebay wanting to sell them or go completely batshit crazy and shuts it off when community turns sour ya feel me dog

Yeah I don't know if rogean reads the forums or anything but I don't even pay for this and I would have pulled it a long time ago.

Plus why would he give more.
