Pick a new game unless you think sitting on mob spawns hoping you get "first to engage" is cool.

Raiding on blue has devolved into a soul-crushing level of poopsockery only the true anti-social no-lifers do well at.

Arrived at the level several times, quit each time, the raiding itself is stale and there are no achievements to pursue, dealing with the people that commit their lives to such a thing is far too much to ask.

I am convinced I have more fun at work, and that actually pays.

What if....there was a new server with max level of 30?.....and no level minimums on stuff.

No root, no mez, no slow, no charm against high end stuff...

The game would never become easy. You could kill dragons, but it would be HARD.

There would be legendary raids where the server came together and tried to invade plane of hate.

39 works.

The entire world! Velious also! ((Though ideally is it would be progression))

There is a lot of really nice equipment out there then that people could get to still compete against high level monsters....but the challenge level is WAY higher.

So no more single shaman killing a raid monster like lodi or a guild finding all the content in the game so trivial that they clear PoF, then ToV, then a handful of dragons all in an afternoon....

With a lower level cap, suddenly simple stuff like camping a fungi tunic becomes a raid encounter on the level of killing a dragon or doing an epic today. There would still be nice equipment, just it wouldn't be camped by a single bored necro.

Tactics would also have to change drastically....more reliance on pet classes (disposable tanks) and unconventional stuff (like hate-kiting to kill stuff, or using more kiters to crowd control since hard CC wouldn't work anymore....or using "lesser pet classes" to crowd control, like a couple shamans and their pets fighting something on the side while the main force fights the other stuff).

Oh it would be so good!! The game would actually be a challenge again! Instead of mindless exp grinds and mindless poopsocking raid targets :P

That's impossible, because as we've seen numerous times here; the kiddies can't play nice. You have camp disputes + raid disputes daily. Heck, I saw a small group of people roll over a duo last night just because they could and pulled their mobs onto the other duo's camp area and took those monsters too. It's become, "whoever can be the biggest douche bag wins. "
Others have said it and it does need repeating. Anyone that raids here needs their head examined by professionals.

It's fun if you like seeing all the 100k+ items go to officers and are satisfied with the occasional scrap that falls off the table.

honestly, if ur not gonna support red. you are going to get above posters mentality on blue.

it's to late anyways, red died when velious released due to low pop, and everyone from red came to blue, and infected everyone with the red playstyle/mindset of fuck everyone.


Really there is only reds failure to blame for the failure of blue. Blue used to actually be a magical place where people pretended to be elvish twilight characters in piece without being harassed. Now that red has imploded the elvish twlighlight roleplayers in the EC tunnel keep getting called "fag" atleast once a minute by some red player turned blue.

honestly i think what would draw the hate out of the blue server would be to draw all the red back to the red server. maybe do a reset on red and it would force all off the assholes who migrates back to red.
