What do you guys think the server split will be when Green goes live?

[Quinas]

Release: 2500 Green, 400 Blue
2 months later: 400 Green, 1400 Blue
Kunark release: 2500 Green, 400 Blue
2 months later: 1000 Green, 1000 Blue

And balance will thus be restored.

Heard it here first.

People just gonna box both at the same time I bet. You KNOW some nerd is gonna be camping AC on both green and blue at the same time selling jboots MQ.

I can't wait for prices to start on green where they currently are on blue for things like jboots mq

1600 green
500 blue

Going to check out Green for sure, can’t wait!
Playing on a new server is always a blast, especially when is classic.

[kjs86z]

Staying on blue.

Hopefully green gets wiped after each merge and starts over.

Green drape is end game preplanar gear. The fact you perceive it as newb gear demonstrates to what degree the economy spoils us for anything but the most elusive equipment. On blue you won't use it for long. As you say. On green you're going to be stuck with that tier of gear for almost a year.

Yeah because there's nothing better but that's not my point. My highest level character right now is my soon to be level 40 Ranger. I'd really like to have a Tolan's bracer for him when he hits level 45 and can use it but I don't have a mountain of cash that I can draw from to buy one and they go for about 5k. Sure I could try leveling places that are good for loot too but those places tend to be busy for obvious reasons. I can get 5k, I'm not trying to say I can't. What I am saying is that bracer costs 5k because there's lots of people that have tens of thousands of plat sitting in their banks. If you don't think the amount of currency in circulation has an effect on prices, just do a little research on the Weimar Republic. It makes prices increase (for goods/services that are of value anyway) and when you come into an economy like that with nothing, you're swimming upstream to obtain comparable equipment to what someone that has been playing here for 10 years can afford. I'm not saying that's wrong, I'm just pointing out the reality of the situation.

On a fresh server, myself or any other player would have the same amount of time to amass wealth as anyone else. Whether you take advantage of that or not is another matter but you start even with everyone else on day 1. If you get put back into the bloated economy of blue after 3 years, your wealth relative to the rest of the server is going to go backwards. That's not arguable, it's a fact.

That's why I would not want to even bother with green if it's going to end up being merged with blue eventually. I may as well just stay on blue with the characters I've already invested time in.

As it stands now, all this talk of green being merged with blue seems to be, from what I've been able to tell by reading this forum, just rampant speculation from players. I've yet to see any comment from an admin saying that is the plan. Until I know what the plan is, I will remain on the fence about playing on green.
