It is a welcome break from R99. It's not classic and doesn't pretend to be. You spawn with gear when you die in PVP so generally people actually fight and either win/lose. You can control cities and give guards items to buff you or port you, etc - minimizing a lot of the prebuffing/porting around nonsense. Raids are 10-12 characters so 5-6 people 2 boxing. A lot of the qualify of life things added post classic era are in like shared bank, /corpsedrag, keyrings, etc. A lot of the huge timesinks such as camping key mobs or farming gear in general have been tuned to not be nearly as bad. Manastones work everywhere. There are raid mobs up 24/7 worth killing.

Most importantly, there are PVP merchants everywhere where you can buy gear like AONs, guises, ancient spells, and some cool unique items. The server encourages PVP and doesn't punish you for losing aside from the bragging rights and a trip (with gear) to your bind. There is also a working in-game leaderboard.

Yea I'm aware of the comfort of pvp life, it just turns EQ into CS though.

Fun for a while I guess [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Love the server. Lots to do. Fun PVP without the bs. Cleaver ideas to have fun with PvP. They got rid of a lot of boring camps and focus on a environment that is not so pve based. Best server I have played on!

The point is that even with 30 real people playing the same amount of PVP and shit getting done happens. Plus everything is condensed to 50+, if you ruled out everyone under level 50 logged into R99 whats the pop? 100? Not that many more honestly.

I wouldn't quite say its CounterStrike EQ, but it is somewhere in between. Definitely more fast paced then traditional EQ in every aspect, PVE and PVP. It's not really designed to be a place you need to spend 8 hours a day to get shit done.

I love original EQ too, this is just a different experience. It is worth trying out.
