EQ is just a funny sort of game. It's extremely difficult to start out, but then once you're at the top it's simple to stay there. This is classic, but I don't think anyone can deny that this is a big part of the problem. Grinding to level 8 as a wis caster is torture, and the fact that you eat almost every PvE death from level 5-30+ most certainly doesn't help, either. Removing the xp loss in PvP death only really seems to help the higher level people, and not the people leveling up. I know I would much rather take a small xp loss from PvP than have griefers making me die intentionally to NPCs I'm engaged with. Higher levels have cleric friends around their level to rez them, and because of the unrezzable xp loss from PvP they prefer training themselves and getting rezzed later.

Maybe the xp loss should be scaled back a lot, if it's as bad as everyone says it is. But I feel it should stay in, just so people have some incentive beyond coin loot to not just root each other on NPCs to waste as much of their time as possible (finding rez, maybe logging out to preserve rez timer).

The game is simply tough, and without a higher population things just are not that fun at the lower levels. I can't understand why so many people prefer playing blue to red. That's all we would need to make this the best emulated server ever: more people. Even with their endgame being a massive letdown, the bluebies still refuse to come over here. Having missed out on launch kind of sucks; I've soloed for all of my xp so far and have only had one PvP encounter when some dumb melee kept attacking me near the Kelethin guards. There are always people to group with at the lower levels on blue, and most of them seem new to that server. Why aren't they coming here?

I don't want to sound like a troll, and I know something like this would probably never happen, but I really do wish that an account would need a level 20 character on red before they were allowed to make one on blue. The twinks, griefers and harsh penalties weren't nearly this bad on live, and it's not because the mechanics here are harsher. It's that on live, you always had potential friends to make at any level.

I'm not sure what could be done about that, beyond forcing our style of play upon the bluebies in some manner. And that would probably be selfish of us.

This is a troll, not a new player. Don't be fooled.
