Merging Made Sense Then COVID-19 - Unmerge

[drackgon]

Ill just be like some and give no reason. Bring back teal, just to troll those who want only green to protect their Plat horde, and afraid that double the pixels..

But for real "The essence of a role-playing game is that it is a group, cooperative experience." Gary Gygax. I won't judge those who enjoy solo play, but this is an MMORPG.

And my exp on Erollisi Marr(different for others), was very very very rare did we see solo players farming high end camps in classic.

We are trying to relive the classic exp, for me that is grouping and having fun, even when my group fails and wipes, dust yourself off laugh and enjoy the adventure. Sadly this game is 20 years old, and with Wiki power, players have the knowledge and technology(cable vs dial up), to be super efficient at EQ. (not judging).

Mainly why deny fun for others.. If there is a strong(almost 500 1/3 pop) who wants teal. Why be a jerk and hate on them for it, let them take their friends and go on adventures.

Except plat horders and loot farmers loved Teal because they could play on both at the same time and farm double the stuff. No one with a plat horde would think Teal was a bad thing, quite the contrary.

Dbl the pixels means half the prices so let them farm double. ^-^[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You would think, but it doesn't seem to be the way things go on P99. Most of those farmers will then just become tunnel questers who don't need to go do anything else so they aren't motivated to sell quickly and cheaply in order to get out of the tunnel. That's why if you go sit in EC for multiple days you'll see people selling the same item for really high prices and refusing to come down...they aren't trying to get back to XPing so they're happy to wait because eventually someone will buy it. Not to mention that those tunnel questers own the bulk of the item in question in existence on the server so they can control what the market price is. This has been an ongoing issue on P99n since before Green.

Plus, then you have double the plat coming into circulation which also inflates the price. If what you're saying is what happens, we would've seen that on Blue with people farming items like crazy 24/7; we would've seen it on Green when Teal merged. But we didn't. Those items are all still going for, and selling at, absurd prices.

I could understand the people not wanting another server if the population was low on Green, its not. People simply dont want another server open, because others do. There is nothing that would be harmed opening up another server for the players. Go if you want, stay if you don't.

Arguing against another server is simply arguing for no reason.

Don't open another server because twice as much loot? 99% of the loot will be worthless come Kunark and beyond, so that is not a good argument now that the /list items are gone.

Prices are not abusrb atm. if anything prices have dropped insanly. Can get M2hd for what 4k if u shop around Fbss down to 14k? 12?K. Gebs 6-7k? Only thing gone up is cost of reapers lol.

I mean I guess. 14k for an item that we know won't be BIS sometime in like the next few months is pretty high IMO. If we didn't know what items were coming in the expansions, then sure.

heck go farm like 10 reapers... gg.. And thats farming a lvl 20 mob..
