What makes you think the top 2 guilds will ever burn out? Their composition may change, but the song remains the same.

More like everyone that plays on P99 wants to experience all that it has to offer. That's the reason people play this type of server. They didn't come here to neckbeard it up like they did in highschool/college 17 years ago.

Instead you have 5% of the server using tactics no sane person will stoop to that keeps the other 8-10 guilds from experiencing the majority of Velious. At least with Kunark the casuals could do most of what there was to offer.

So you're basically agreeing with what I said.

The burnout rate seems much faster than Kunark - way more targets that you MUST contest and kill. The flow of people into the server seems much less now too, less fodder for the fire.

It seems unsustainable - even the people in AA realize that, that's the only reason they wanted changes from the CoTH racing. Now there is just a different type of race though.

What happens when there's no more guilds to cannibalize? Mergers/absorbtions have been fast and furious and we aren't even a year in.

I know a lot that are on the verge of burning out from both top guilds, myself included. Racing is fun and all, but that's about all that's left keeping me here. I'd say in about 6 months, the members of both AA will look nothing like they do now.

In 6 months AA will merge into one hardcore guild with the common goal of keeping raid loot out of the hands of casuals.

The remaining casual guilds are pretty entrenched too, not many merging prospects when the time comes. Divinity/BDA are what they are, and have been the same for 4 years or more. Would be very hard or impossible to get one of the CSG guilds to merge with an AA guild. Anon is pretty close with Divinity.

Really you'd have to hope for a new and upcoming guild like Asgard that wants in on the scene. Not many of those these days.

Cut off my hands, gouge out my eyes, burn me alive....but just do NOT let casuals have anything that I want.

The burnout is real. Give it a few months and then swoop in. You'll get the sickness all the same, though.
