Well, you campaigned as hard as I did for spawn changes, so you know the box was doomed to remain blue.

After seeing Gongshow, Colgate, and 80 others raid Kunark for 10 months in a way that made Nihilum look casual, you knew it would only get bluer from there.

Thing is, in Kunark you could still PVP a BIS player while wearing some more casual gear. Velious brought about the ability to take up raiding as a second job in order to have a crazy gear advantage over your enemy. To some people fighting people with half your HP is considered fun, I never got that.

Now you got hardcore PVE'rs like Checkraise who got burnt out by the Empire raid schedule. On the other hand, you got people like Colgate rocking 100% raid attendance over a 3 month window followed by 10 month of Kunark work hours farming.

In addition to that, it became very clear to me that many players who used to love PVP because in Kunark there was literally nothing better to do, have had their flame toned down due to the million available quests.


Aside from me coming back which I won't do, this server will remain an extension of blue.

Well yes I think we can all agree now that HB is an unreliable flake and Colgate is the best damn player on the box. Gl irl bro. I'll be in kael

Was an officer in 150 man zerg guild that lost every major PvP battle and disbanded a month later.

The Velious gear advantage is huge no doubt, but Kunark gear can still hold up against it. Especially with a few of the attainable Velious pieces.

At the moment the only guild getting Velious BIS gear is absolutely loaded with blue players outside of a small core of decent pvpers. So most the gear is wasted anyway when it comes to pvp.
