Not to be nitpicky, but it's false that there was never 'instancing' in EQ. There was. It was called, new servers.

Every few months, Verant/SOE released a few new servers, and those of us that had it on the old servers ran screaming to new ones. I hopped a few servers till I landed on Vazaelle, and I stayed there and loved it.

We don't need to instance zones. We need to instance the whole damn server. WRU green server

I server hopped a bunch as well.

Prexus > Lanys > Luclin > Vazaelle > Tholuxe

...then SoE got their shit together and gave the Euros some servers. Ended up on Venril Sathir and could raid at sane times [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Honestly things have improved a lot since Velious. The most straight-foward and easy way to make the server a little more healthy is to release Luclin and eventually pop. Look at some of these blue guilds.....do they really belong on a Velious server? Its like putting Mike Tyson back in time to a boxing ring in the 1950s.

No Boxing - check

You haven't even the slightest clue how much engine rework would need to be done to apply this feature to a classic server. It's a lot and won't happen. Sorry.

Problem with naggy is that his loot is still top tier. Nothing beats bladestopper in its role and utility for pulling contested mobs through trash.
Younger guilds have a better chance at Vox if they approach CSG.

Vox is crazy contested because it's the easiest way to get white scales which are an incredibly hot commodity. Realistically, both Naggy and Vox die ASAP even in Velious.
