That's interesting I consider waiting in line for a camp a waste of time. It really is much more fun to kill someone who is camping something and then take it over, than waiting.

And yeah, half this first page is people complaining/scared because they don't know what anon is. That's the other great thing about red, it *tends* to weed out the novice players, you'll quickly learn to use everything to your advantage here. Potions, consumables, pumice, water dancing, faction, resist equipment.

And... Once you get best in slot there's more to do than standing around in the tunnel or rolling a new alt. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.][You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.][You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Red promoters always bring this up ... and then forget to mention how much less fun it is to be camping something and suddenly have some asshole show up and kill you.

lol...

Ties in well with the post about having best in slot gear then your abuse potential makes this even more "challenging" for the up and comer!

There are trade offs between the two servers. Being killed can be a bummer, but overall the downtime from is small in comparison to not having to wait for nearly any camp/quest/mob to be open.



I'm not advocating anyone move to red. Most don't make it past 30, especially people starting on their own. However, red can be incredibly fun for a static group of 6 players. Just avoid mistmoore.


and yes there are guilds that raid. No spawn variance timers, no FTE, no poopsocking, no raid suspesions. Large pvp battles are tons of fun also.



Both servers have their charm and their psychos.

But if you're interested in that there are other servers to play plus not just the enemy can use mq or box lol.

Played on red for a while, had a character in Empire before I quit (way before they mass quit), the server atmosphere was not at all like the awesome fun I had in PvP on live.

I feel like we should start making "Consider Blue" threads for the 20 or so people still on Red. They need our help.
