The PVP aspects aside, nobody seems to be mentioning how stupidly OP mages were upon P99 launch. You could take a naked mage: Use your pet to rape through basically whatever zone you chose, farm Freeport guards till you could do specs, rape specs till lvl 50, make a bunch of plat along the way, then sell your toon in EC tunnel for plat/trade for harder to level characters. Legally. Rinse and repeat.

It was a huge moneymaker and/or account collector. If you were min/max or profit oriented it was almost stupid to play any character other than a mage until various nerfs were implemented.

In economic terms, they call that kicking away the ladder. Use a certain set of rules to set yourself up for success, then once your on top, change the rules so others have it more difficult. Welcome to capitalism! Er, I mean P99.

All hate aside, I still love this server and have and will donate again. Don't ban me! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
