the items were removed or nerfed for a reason. Leave them out.

Fake news.

Seafuries were unclassic. Evidence was presented for what their classic drop rates were and they got fixed appropriately.

Green will surely have the fixed/classic sea furies, not the rediculous and broken loot dispenser that inflated blue/red plat for so many years.

Here is a portion of the 7-14-2017 patch notes
Telin: Corrected Butcherblock Bandit appearances and added Margyl Darklin to her classic path.
Telin: Added aggro/death messages to Zarchoomi, Brock Brawlbottom, Cargo Clockwork, Driver Bryggin, Blixkin, Ember, rogue clockwork, runaway clockwork, Anderia, Tukk, Minda, Rongol, Olunea Miltin, guards in East/West Freeport, and Kobolds in Steamfont.
Telin: A few Guards in Butcherblock Mountains have changed their posts and will now have above average magic resistance. Guard Mandin now spawns again.
Telin: Added multiquest ability to the Bug Collection quest in Misty Thicket and The Painting quest in East Freeport.
Telin: Deputy Eigon and Poolt in Misty Thicket now share the same post.
Telin: Driver Bryggin now only spawns when Cargo Clockwork is killed.
Telin: The Freeport Militia now patrol more areas of East Freeport.
Telin: Removed non-classic fletching vendors from North Freeport.
Telin: Added kite shields to the Freeport Militia.
Telin: Guard Brendyl now patrols more of the path in North Ro.
Telin: Seafury Cyclopes will drop gems less often.
Telin: Added missing dialogue to the McMannus clan in West Karana and Holana Oleary in Halas.

It literally says which items were corrected or added. Also makes a plain statement seafury Cyclopes will drop gems less often. No statement of unclassic correction or change.

My original statement stands, prior to this change seafury island was really petition island. I would include changes to Tov and others if I cared to further research this. Make mana stones lore at the least, no drop/account bound would be better. Without those changes 5-6 people will occupy the camp for its entire duration and bag thousands? Of manastones.
Using Alinsky tactics on a msg board is comical.

At what point in the timeline do seafuries get nerfed? Or maybe it’s just right out of the gate this time?

All the things should drop on Green

Only things that still drop on Blue should be transferred over

I like this, but not at all because I care about Blue.

Anyone who is worried about Blue getting a few more guises or mana stones is worrying over nothing IMHO. Blue will be a great server with 500 mana stones or 1500 manastones; the only difference it will make is the price of a manastone, and my enjoyment of the server isn't impacted by the price of a manastone (remember, the server had seven years of Circlets of Shadows and VP loot and such; worrying about Blue's environment not being classic is dumb).

But where this will make a dramatic difference is on Green. If it's possible to bring manastones and such over to Blue from Green, all of those camps on Green will be full of Blue farmers. Everyone will do them not because they want them on their Green character, but because they want them for their Blue character.

Even if the items never leave Green those camps are still going to be pretty toxic, but if they become farm points for Blue it's really going to get even uglier.

To all those saying green will be toxic, a shitshow, <insert doomsday comment here>, etc., all i have to say is that the only people who will have a toxic experience are the drama queens yelling that green will be toxic, a shitshow, <insert doomsday comment here>, etc. For the rest of us, we will go on with our EQ lives trying to work stuff out with our follow players. There will be the occasional drama flare up but it will be the exception not the rule. However, the forums would make it seem like its a shitshow cause the few drama queens discussed above will be posting nonstop about people stealing their orc pawns while invoking lawyerquest rules.
