You will have tons of fun leveling to 60 and will get alot of new friends.

But once you hit 60 and if you want to see high end content, you will start vomitting since the raiding scene atm is very unhealthy, mainly because its so overcrowded. Unless you find fun to be ready to log in any time of day or wait hours at zoneline for boss to spawn. Every boss in NToV for example is pulled to entrance or west exit and if you wish to experience "classic" dungeon crawling through NToV killing dragons, thats not gonna happen on this server until some major changes are made.

This sounds like an outsiders opinion, yes there are a lot of people at the high end because the server has been up for so long but there are pixels to be had and more than just bosses to kill. There are several raid encounters a top tier guild would undertake that require "dungeon crawls" in velious.

Several examples:

10th ring war:

A couple hours worth of clearing wave after wave of giants as they run toward thurgadin...this takes a lot of people working in a coordinated fashion....

Tunare:

She hasn't been killed without first clearing Plane of Growth on this server. ....it takes 7-8 hours for the top guild on the server to clear plane of growth...clearing is overrated....this 8 hours typically nets your guild 2 weapons or a weapon and an essence of nature....The trash drops armor which has equivalent stats to the thurgadin quest armor. The members of any guild capable of killing Tunare do not need this armor for their main characters and it will go to alts...

Halls of Testing (East ToV):

The mini bosses in this wing can be pulled without clearing but the whole point of the Halls of Testing is killing the trash for the quest armor drops. The skyshrine quest pieces are what fills out most visible slots for Velious raiders until they can be replaced piecemeal with drops from big bosses.


There are so many raid targets in this game post Velious that having to clear NToV would be ridiculous...

Also, to the OP, it's 100% worth coming back...
