I dont think p99 exp will deter people from playing on red99 but i think the possible lack of high populatin that p99 experiences will hurt realistic grouping and that in turn will either turn people away or make them play a class they dont want to.

Right now everything is speculation. If red99 comes out and there is 300-400 people always on then i wouldnt give a shit what exp rate is. If you log on and there is 100 people spread around the world you have to hope there is enough people in your lvl range that will group with you or you got to roll a solo class
i think the fact that this will be the first "good" pvp CLASSIC server out...that people from live will actually come to play a legit server. and also people who quit both live and eqemu due to server limitation might ACTUALLY come back to play this "good" CLASSIC pvp server. "good" meaning legit, legit meaning hosted by rogean and nilbog

THIS.

I hope lvling is difficult but if the population is not there up the exp rate.

Good to see someone with at least a modicum of wisdom behind the decision making. Please further ignore this moron Macken please. It's laughable hes pretending to care about the health or longevity of the server. He's just upset that this isn't looking like its going to turn out to be the arena style grief box he was hoping for.

I think its going to be more of a grief box. YT only caused grief to those with thin skin. EXP loss in pvp imo will cause more widespread grief

I heard only gay rangers are p99 exp, rest is x300%

it does nil actually ask dax ask null ask searyx

but to find the happy medium is the key

ive grinded threw 5 pvp boxes, it does get old to people.

but to be fair if its a server with not 3... not 4.. not5. not6 not7, no but without 300 plus pop or maybe even more, low exp can be killer for pvpers

Keep exp rates the same, ditch the class penalties imo.

It all depends if you guys have exp loss on death.

If so, up the rates or nix the class penalties.
If not, keep everything the same exp wise to p99 rates.
