Tried this server out. Base xp is like 1% which for noobs just starting is awful. It takes alot longer as a lower level to level up on this server (just like 1 to 5) and its much faster on P99. The only saving grace is the hotzone xp, but given that is not applied to some starting zones I think people will try and then give up.

Nice idea, but I do not see it lasting. Back to P99 for me.

Love all these people complaining. The devs seem to be patching things at least once a day to fix reported broken quests, non-velious items, etc... It's been open less than a week and the majority of players seem to be around level 8-18. I bet we'll see the first 60's before the end of May.

"Tons of white knights claiming the exp is ok because a few bards swarm kited to 20+ after 4 days, and the people who grinded through the "faster than P99 on a twink" stage before it was nerfed and shot up to 15+. There have already been balance issues (some iksars noobs earning 200+pp each the first day because of coin drops, first day huge experience bonuses for some zones)"

my level 1 enchanter killed 5 yellow cons in a non-hotzone and dinged 2

exp isn't that broken

but TBH the only reason i'm playing on The Sleeper is because of the promise of tokens to spawn raid mobs

grinding back towards 60 on a new server is still gonna take less time than poopsocking/tracksocking dragons for my epic on P99

I would love to see all the complainers in this thread back in 2009 or whatever when P99 came out. There was shit tons of bugs here with everything from pathing to loot tables and beyond, and P99 devs responding to the playerbase certainly wasn't as quick as it is on The Sleeper.

There was no better emu that P99 could compare itself to in 2009..

I was there? First level 50 chanter? First Level 50 with a level 50 alt? I had fun when P99 was released and it seemed balanced and you could tell there was a lot of research and fine tuning. There were bugs, but it was done reasonably well. I cannot say the same about the sleeper, and the differences will be blatantly obvious to anyone with any kind of dev experience.
