How to save red

[Swish]

There is nothing better than the rush you get from your first legit pvp kill 1v1, sad that a lot of people will never try it to see what I mean [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I think the poll has the right idea; that there are too many zones relative to players.

Norrath is just too big on red.

I'd like to see a vanilla red with no expansions. That massively reduces the fungi twink problem too. In fact I'd even be happy with lvl 40 cap, Faydwer only (talls vs shorts?!).

The only problem is that would either require a significant roll back or full wipe, which would essentially mean killing, not saving, red.

I'd like to see Red deleted, or at very least Red recruitment spam silenced.

Can't always get what we want.

I know how to save Red. Allow characters to be copied from blue to red, so the character can still be played on BLUE.

this could breathe much needed life into Red, and make the server an option again.

I posted this a couple months ago hoping to see some kind of change in Red. The fact that 60 nerds have a whole server dedicated to them is mind boggling. Something needs to change, this is pure insanity.

My questions to the devs is "are you satisfied with the population of Red?"

The only PvP server I would play on again in EQ is a team PvP server.

Team PvP was pretty cool on live, it didn't last long, but the concept of "controlling territory" was very fun.

i had a good time on red with my mighty paladin. i managed to get the nerds to give me raid loot even though i contributed nothing to the guild and was afk for all raids i obtained the strongest pvp items such as

pauldrons of ferocity,
tri plated golden hackle hammer,
sword of rile,
aon,
paladious axe of and 8 other vulak items,
a second aon
shield of rainbow hues
robe of azure sky
shield of immaculate


then stole a manastone and kept it i have the strongest paladin.
dont play eq

You could make most old world zones and some Kunark zones subject to a rule where anybody who attacks somebody else in PVP vulnerable to players of all levels for 2 hours in game(and also people who attack them are still only vulnerable to +-4). This might cut down on twinked griefers, or at least make it more risky.

Also, why was spell resistance change from 5% to 2% at max? This only makes geared players stronger and discourages new, ungeared, players from joining the server. I know this a marginal change, but it seems weird. And, why don't lower level spells become less resistable like they were on live. It was nice to be able to interrupt people with Chaotic Feedback or SoL.
