Like a warrior or rogue. I mean all you do is farm about 6 HQ bear pelts, and you can play soloquest all the way to 50.

I feel like the server is to old to support life anymore. It's just like an old wheezing geezer on a ventilator getting pumped full of air every so often.

There's no incentive to group. The people who aren't already 60+ with 60+ toons are all retired, playing r99 or AFK in the tunnel.

And there's just no challenge, excitement or sense of adventure. It's just a long boring grind with the occasional gnome running right through the middle of your camp to get to iceclad.
unironically, consider red.

Good troll but if you're serious this thread blows my mind. Every day of the week there is some combination of untwinked, poorly twinked and amazingly twinked players sitting around in full groups taking up every camp in mistmoore. Still lots of newbs in crushbone and teens in oasis. The lack of boxing makes self power leveling not a thing. Even the uber twink has to interact socially to get his PL. Soloing on a warrior without a regen item is definitely slower than grouping 20+...You're definitely spending at least 20k if you want to somewhat efficiently solo a warrior to 35...If there is some secret to soloing a warrior to 50 untwinked here please PM me.

Also 95% of high end raid mobs are contested at all hours of the day within moments of spawning. Even mid end raid content gets hit quickly. The Hate / Fear revamp along with some of the velious quests provide the lowest tier raid guilds with contested targets to have fun snagging and bitch about not getting...

Yaw, i'm not emotional. I was just being informational for the other aspergery players we have.

No u can nothaz my loot because that would require me to log in.

Yes, a 3rd server would be nice.

No I got bored at level 30 with my rogue b4 I moved on. Also, got tired of looking at that stupid gloomwater harpoon and wondering if I would be some kind of strange DE amazon hybrid the rest of my life or if I would actually become a rogue at some point :P

Ummm - Yeah, blue is great if you just want to sit in random groups and make friends.

My fondest memories were of stuff likerunning from FP, to like EK to grab a gnoll reaver group because everything else was full, and having a bronze weapon and raw-hide and feeling like I accomplished something major when I got two whole levels in a few hrs without dying so far from a good bind point.

I'd love to play a server like this, but I suspect it would have to be a server timelocked to eternally being with no expansions. In some regards Kunark itemisation killed the heart of Everquest.

Yeah, either that or make it so every expansion has a required level for equip of 30 or 40+ etc. So people still use old word items and zones. But that's massively non-classic.
