Ooh, I like this idea!

Honestly, there's a lot of hate in this thread about "not classic, blah blah, I have a stick up my butt about what's considered classic in my opinion". FACT: CLASSIC was that people only had to wait like maybe a year TOPS before they could raid ST after the Sleeper woke up. That fact isn't up for dispute, that's the way it went, it was the plan all along, etc. The way we've got it is NOT sticking with the plan. Right? Right.

Back to opinions though: people are playing on P99 to experience the Classic, Kunark, and Velious content, and not Classic, Kunark, and 87% of the Velious Content. I call this my "opinion", but it's pretty much a no-brainer that people don't play so that they can not experience content...

There's lots of options for how to open up this content, to be honest. It's just finding one that people feel right about, is the only question.

Option A: Early Bird gets the worm, there will only ever be one worm (not classic), everyone else loses.

Option 2: A one time reset of Sleeper's Tomb, don't screw it up this time, asshats.

Option D: A periodic reset of Sleeper's Tomb. Once every (X amount of time), ST resets.

Door #4: Follow the actual plan/timeline for Sleeper's Tomb, AKA release ST 2.0, the version after The Sleeper woke up.

My vote is actually for #4, because even though it technically happened during "Luclin timeframe", it's Velious, with Velious level loot (primals basically get re-branded as "Ancient Prismatic" instead, same stats though), and some of the old "classic" stuff never drops again, making it extremely unique/rare/special. The stuff that drops in ST 2.0 wouldn't imbalance the current game in any way either. It also isn't any kinf od a "custom version" of anything, so people don't have their nerd alarm go off and lose their friendly shit over it being "not classic". On the contrary, it's as classic as can be, because it's the REAL end of the timeline for Sleeper's tomb.

However, if too many nerd alarms are indeed tripped by that "Not Classic ***TIMELINE***" solution, then my vote is for either of the other 2 options, in order to open up content to the CURRENT and FUTURE playerbase.
