Red players couldn't handle classic exp, while blue players could. What conclusions can we draw from this?

cant hurt to increase exp rate, could attract more players, and it would negate some of the grief from dying pvp or pve. I could see it help the population maybe

pvp exp loss is so small its not a factor unless u /durrr afk and come back 50 kills later...

But thats a different problem, not a pvp exp loss problem.

There was a clear difference from classic EQ compared to the current server. Classic EQ had THOUSANDS of players spread across all levels. There were always people to interact with, play with, pass the time with. This server does not. Its a server where if you're new, you play alone for weeks... if you last that long. I know I'm not.
Ya true classic EQ is dead unfortunately. Cherish the memories and look forward to Diablo 3.

I have a really hard time understanding why people dont link pvp xp death with the horrible grind.

If people already have a hard time leveling on a low pop server, why let twinks run around to make people eat xp death? If the horrible solo grind is bad enough as it is, why make it worse? If you say that new players have a chance against decked out twinks, gtfo of here. They might win once in a while, but wont happen often.

I think theres 2 camps that are pushing for xp loss in pvp:

The "I want to hold pve spots camp easily through sheer numbers" camp

The "i want to delevel people outta the server lulz" camp

If there was only a timer (low health no mana on death) on xp death instead of xp loss, i guarantee you that Nihilum would not hold Fear all nite like they do.

I am currently in Nihilum, and i would want people come and challenge raid content. But they dont. Because of xp loss. Thats the ONLY reason Nihilum is not getting challenged in raid content.

Without xp loss, I can easily see people fighting all nite in fear, with 3-4 guilds staying there dukin it out for hours. You know, like on a pvp server.

INB4 the lulzdeleveluoutofserver xplossinsignificant people call me a bluebie and then cue crying about zerging because if they try anything more than once theyll get their asses deleveled to 49.

One second to enjoy the Lol...

OK Ecoli...

Do you know how much exp you lose with exp death? Do you know how long/many mobs it takes to make up for that exp loss? How do you expect someone to delevel people off the server exactly? The only way thats possible is if someone afk's at their bind spot.

Honestly, as a melee class, the only thing that I take into consideration when getting near death is, "o snap im gonna have to run back here if I die!" ...thats only if i'm far away from my bind and can't get to a zoneline, which means melee's shouldnt be too far away from a zoneline btw. Thats fun to me and is why I am on a PvP server.

..Who cares about the 2 blue ticks...

It takes longer to run back to a corpse than grind out the next to no xp you lose in a pvp death. Pretty sure you're unable to make any reasonable argument anyway as the last time I saw you try and string together a series of thoughts it failed terribly and the only thing you were able to do was attempt to make shit up to justify your beliefs.

But do go on, tell us why pvp isn't working while you sit behind double the numbers of every other guild on the server.
