Custom server idea to prevent end-game crowding.

[Ravager]

I just had an idea for a server that might prevent the end-game congestion and max-level glut. The game plays to level 50 like normal, but then when you ding 51 you have only 2 months to ding 52 after which you return to the start of 50. If you make it into 52, the 2 month timer resets and you have 2 months to make 53 after which you return to 50 if you haven't dinged 53 in that time. This carries on all the way to level 60, where you only get 2 months to be 60 and then you automatically return to level 50 to start the progression again. If you lose a level during your 2 months, for instance going from 57 to 56, you still have to complete the original level target in that time, in that case 58, or you will return to 50 again. All gear and spells and skill ups are kept when you return to 50, though the regular level caps still apply.

I think that this would make it so that nobody can have a ton of level 60's at once and they wouldn't be able to get BiS gear on multiple toons. It'd keep the players in the end game rotating through and it might make encounters more difficult since it would be hard to amass 100 level 60's under one guild tag for very long.

Now the argument will come in that getting to 60 and raiding is the fun part of EverQuest; this wouldn't be the server for you.

Not classic, but that's why it's titled custom server idea.

Flame away.

So the big guilds power lvl their members and normal players get screwed? Don't think it'll work mate.

Also, what if I want to take a break for a month or 2? I have to re-level? I'd probably quit.

Best end-game idea I've heard so far was wipe it clean.

i could just quote this and enough said, but you really need to know how badly you fcked up Ravagor.


this is the literally worst end game idea i've ever heard...? force players to repeat the shittiest, most grueling 10 levels of their time in the game... over and over

how the F do you get here and not get to

"after 2-4 months of being max level, a level 60 character is transfered to the 60 only server, so that level 60s can't lock down all content for leveling players"

Does this clear things up for you? I'm guessing you've never actually hit 60. Better luck next time.

Being 50 with best in slot gear wouldn't be bad at all, and would foster a more connected community.

Thanks Ravager for always thinking outside the box. A true casual.

Quit putting lipstick on a pig.
