Merging Made Sense Then COVID-19 - Unmerge

[Fammaden]

Paw has become an xp highway hot zone since the ZEM changes were announced and its design doesn't lend itself well to crowding. There are nice camps but a competent six man group can quickly run short of mobs at any of them. This is a cherry-picking argument, I promise you Paw right now would be overcrowded on Teal as well.

It was overcrowded before this is another level. You can't compare people ks'ing mobs off of each other. And it's not even one of the top 2 ZEM zones.

Yeah for sure. All of turbos examples have centered around either high ZEM zones or very popular camps (or both). And somehow he thinks splitting the server is going to mean he can roll into frenzy or efreeti or high ZEM zones with a static group and have free claim to those camps. Always seems to be the way with a lot of these people that the “server is too crowded” when they can’t immediately claim an extremely popular/lucrative camp or immediately find an open camp in a high ZEM zone...

Half the time I see him referencing "300 people in fear and 150 killing Vox at 4AM pop time" or something, which makes me think he's in Kingdom or Seal Team and just wants uncontested raid targets back.

Lol yeah that’s another good example. Based on all of his arguments, I really don’t understand why he doesn’t go play the TLPs. He really seems like he needs instances or pick zones

Ok we're in the always high ZEM zone LGUK. Why lguk? Because we're ZEM whores. looking for content for our upper 40's and 50 group. Frenzied being solo'd, AM being solo'd, lord camped. Good news king not called.

We all run to king, oh wait. 50 ench soloing king but not responding. Guess we'll go check out Efreeti next.

We only have 5 tonight so room for one more in our group. We've done a lot of grouping for exp in the high zem zones lguk and solb cuz my wife playing her half elf warrior is a serious min/maxxer.

[turbosilk]

49 people in solb. Everything camped.

If I was a solo player I'd have it made. Because I'd play a game like retail WoW designed for antisocial solo'ers instead of a game meant to force people to group and socialize and have fun with their friends.

Do I mention the last level 50 zone available, Kedge, to my wife yet again and piss her off because that's where I always end up making us go because there is nothing else? She loathes that zone.
