This could bring the server new life as it will:


What do you guys think?

In b4 "not classic" but we have FTE messages, 25 mobs per AoE spells, basically every raid rule, and all other things done for the betterment of the server!

From my non-raiding perspective, The Sleeper granted the server a living mythical being that was ever-present and always beckoning those strongest a challenge to look forward to someday.

By not resurrecting the Sleeper back to the server, those pathetic sad losers who awakened him are granted the power of wielding an eternal massive middle finger at P99.

The staff should strike back with their own gigantic middle finger at those losers who to this day feel like their lives have been fulfilled by destroying the Sleeper on P99.

I don't even raid, and think it's a great idea to have the Sleeper back on P99.

Having a waken-able Sleeper made wayyyyy more sense on live.

Velious was released here on August 2nd, 2015, ie. more than two years ago. You know what happened on live in that time? Shadows of Luclin (1 year after). Planes of Power (less than 2 years after). Heck in a few more months if we were "on schedule" we'd not only have LoY but also LDoN.

Why does that matter? Because by the time LDoN came out no one cared about the loot from the warders. I mean maybe some people might have still wanted some items from it, but in general when you're level 65 with 200 AAs and Plane of Time drops, who cares about primal weapons?

PLUS, if we were going by live the warders would have been restored by now (without the Sleeper).

So while in some sense the dev's decision is the "most classic" choice, it's really an incredibly unclassic one this long after Velious's release. Not even Brad McQuaid himself would let a few players deny everyone else on the server some of the best items in the game for over two years. He would have done the exact same thing the live devs did: either release better items, restore the warders, or do both.

No, not classic. Sleeper is awake. Sorry, but get over it.

No thanks to the OP idea, that's just a way to get rid of the non A/A keys.

I like the idea that someone posted on having warders repop on quakes though but I think it should be more of a rare chance than 100% all 4 pop. Something like a 5% pop chance for each warder on quake. That'd be entertaining and add a nice twist to the quakes, checking the rare chance if a warder popped or maybe even more. That way the server should typically see a warder every few months or so.

Add warders back in but they can only drop cloth caps.
