You can try to kill the sleeper every 3 years before your characters are transferred to blue from green, purple, x99, y99, etc99 etc etc on and on for eternity [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Green gets rolled into blue with every reset.

Imagine the horror in the EC tunnel when more potential manastones (etc) enter the market....better save TODAY to buy up the supply TOMORROW!!

Boutikasaurus or whoever is smart.

I would be down for the sleeper to come back. I believe a reset every few years would keep server fresh.

Green for full TP but for keeping things interesting that would be cool.

The big difference between P99 and actual live servers is that Velious didn't last for 4 years with no end in sight on live servers. Having some of the most valuable raid targets on the box be perma-dead is kind of dumb.

this is what you signed up for though. You signed up for velious and autistically scream about Luclin ruining the game. If anything be mad at the people who woke the sleeper.

Who wants to be the brave one to explain why the sleeper was awakened on this server in the first place? Maybe Dannyl? He was in that guild after all. Did it feel like the right thing to do? You denied your enemies (Aftermath) pixels, right? Was that all it was about?

Make all the original warders/mobs pop with original loot table and drop percentages, on earthquakes and ONLY on earthquakes. Don't reset the sleeper itself and its awakening script.

As someone who would love a shroud, I couldn't help but feel my Warder 2.0 shroud would be a charity shroud. I can also think of 2-3 monks whereby me knowing they will never get shrouds makes me not having one much more tolerable. It would obviously mean a lot more to them than me, denial of pixels, all that jazz.

These are probably not the thoughts of a cool and normal BBQing bro in the midst of a summer vacation that prevents my guild from getting loot, but it is what it is.

I'm not proud.
