Sorry on red we dont speak stupid.
Oh I wasn't advocating the red vs blue there is no way I would ever suggest someone roll blue again with the new rules. I just found the picture being used interesting and was curious if someone could come up with one to show pvp irl situation during a similar time period. But to point out your statement Qtip I know you frequent RNF so your fluent in it by now.

There you have it folks.
Using player count to make this argument is oldandtired.jpg

Also, it's just not a legitimate reason to declare one server superior than the other.

Now, you could point out that Red99 has an unsettling amount of psychopaths on the server. Or you could say that Red99 PvP is outdated and "not as fun as other games." You could also complain about the number of hostile loudmouths in OOC or that the server is dominated by one raiding guild. (Tears.jpg)

Now, you could point out that Blue99 has an enormous waiting list for any camp. You could argue that the items are too expensive on Blue99, or the lack of the experience bonus which exists on Red99 makes the leveling time just too unbearable. You could also make the point that the silly raiding rules on blue make endgame quite undesirable.

All of these points would be valid arguments for one server or the other. However, saying x server has this many players, y server has this many players, so x server is better. That shit's just dumb.jpg

Anecdotal, but since I've started playing on Red (dabbling, really), pretty much everything I've seen for sale has been listed either at about the same prices as on Blue, or higher.

Result of Velious interest boom, I guess? Or I've just been seeing a lot of really optimistic speculators trying to gouge?

Mid range items are almost all more expensive than on blue.
High end items are probably cheaper than on blue, except the few that have a significant PvP role.

Some opportunists, I saw Cuffed trying to push a Student's Homework for 6k last night and howled with laughter here.

SK stuff is expensive tho, people would do really well to farm some of their own items if they're starting a SK/paladin.

It'd be the 20sv poison ranged item version: student syllabus. If you get to around 90svpoison you resist muscle lock (a lot?/outright?)

I want it on my casters for ^ reason.

As a 1.3k hp clothie a rogue chews thru my hp quite quickly when snared.

That's the reason its worth 4-5-6k ATM.

Ignorance is bliss.

Student's Homework consistently sells at 1-2k

Teacher's Syllabus (20 PR) sells for 5-6k and those buying the item haven't complained about the price. I expect it'll hold at that value based on the drop rate for a little bit of time to come. I think someone else mentioned 90 PR is a special number in the PvP scene.

I don't think any of my prices are opportunistic. I think they are quite fair and reasonable based on the quality of the items. But these are very much PvP orientated items that are good across all levels. Not PvE items.

How about the fact that Blue's premiere raiding guild hasn't recruited every player on the box for a 1 guild server? 33-50% of Red's population being in Empire is a bit of a joke tbh.

Blue "apparently" killed (rumors?) lord v with more than <empire> fields so the <empire> bosses have some more crouting to do ( no more monks/paladins thx ).

It's not <empires> fault the other guilds can't form a roster capable of sticking @ it for longer than month before some greed self serving penis muncher decides his alt needs items over some main or sells guild loot to opposition guild members infront of them for personal gain.

The opposition guild/s seem to think the biggest guild needs to cater to the smaller guilds short-comings to "balance" the server. HA!

If the 100 other 60's on the server had better leadership you'd be surprised what could happen.

p.s vindi has been up for almost a week now and no attempts have been made @ it.
