biggest issue beyond EXP, which is the current hugest barrier to new players on a barren server, is the lack of competition at the top due to the nihilum zerg. more content will not fix this. it's funny tho, the zerg isn't just bad for the rest of the pop, it's bad for nihilum as well because it leads to such quick burnout amongst it's members who get geared up quickly and realize now there's nothing left to do.

if there was some sort of fix to EXP whether it be a temporary bonus, a grouping bonus, hot zones, whatever it may be, that would be a good first step as it would provide a larger recruiting grounds for the end game, thereby creating more competition.

tl;dr: exp remains the biggest issue on this server

At this point you're just talking about making the game easy for people and catering to the lazy. There is no reason why 7 months into release people should not be 50, or close. Only thing I would agree is perhaps an exp bonus for melee classes as opposed to a penalty, but any caster should be 50 with even the most casual of schedules. It's not an excuse anymore 7 months into the server.

Here is the flaw with your logic, your talking about people that have played on server for 7 months, are not 50, quit, and might come back. Of which, there are . . . 20? If that.

Most people talking about exp, are talking about pumping new blood into the system, and bringing back those that quit at lvl 1-30 b/c they didnt want the grind.

While I agree that it's not difficult to level up a caster to 50, a lot of people were initially here for PVP. When they come and see a barren server that has <30 people unless a dragon is up, they feel no motivation to continue on with the grind. Why should they? So they can join Nihilum a month from now, get geared up in two weeks and quit? Some sort of bonus, in whatever form it may be, would hopefully bring a "second wave" of people, that you could group with (this is meant to be a social game after all), PVP against etc, rather than AFK exp every 6 minutes as the only person in your zone.

Imagine how much more fun this server would be with three equally sized guilds at the top competing amongst one another with nightly PVP. That won't ever happen unless something is done to bring more people to this server. Maybe make the EXP bonus temporary, anything, who really cares at this point tbh? The arguments about it delegitimizing the efforts of the current Level 50's fall on deaf ears when the nightly pop is consistently below 40.

I think the problem is that the whole server is just one entire guild ganking up on that single person that logs in everyday. Unless another rival guild appears that challenges this guild the server is pretty much dead. I say wipe the server clean and do a full system restart.

Considering I just grinded thru hardcore boosted exp woulda kinda make me mad, but then i would get over it when I wasnt forever alone on the server.

BOOST EXP PLEASE

Box dead. Nothing but exp can maybe save it... kunark would be cool two weeks then same dead box.. gg project manager doesn't even post on forums but once every three weeks.

Nilbog don't worry about dickhead trolls. Lot of guys like him mad cause their guild got griefed off the server.

Also, since you're around, can i get am item reimbursement I've had on the forums for a while?
