3 months later and you guys are still begging the devs for increased exp and YT.


but i thought trollborn and dullah said kunark alone would save the server? seems like all that happened was more nihilum started logging in again.


unfortunate that the devs are so steadfast in their classic recreation that they limit the potential this server has. let blue be your 100% classic recreation; red was supposed to be tuned for pvp.


now the population is split between 2 boxes, rather than ~200 or so playing together.


bummer.


guess i'll check back again in a couple months.

i came back for the experience rate and it feels real good where it is at. I'm still not instantly 60. The pvp scene still sucks unfortunately and taking the bonus away will make it worse. VV has almost enough players to be competitive with nihilum but theyre desperately trying to catch up on the level game. Taking away the exp bonus just means they will be that much further behind to hitting 60 and being able to be competitive.

I really hope the experience bonus stays. It finally legitimately makes the exp pen on death tolerable. It encourages people to come back to the server. It will encourage people to play on the server.

Agreed, the experience should be left at what it is right now, it's by far a huge enough time investment to get 60 at this rate, i think any slower will result in a negative effect.

There needs to be a balance, and i think its pretty good right now. With a job i can get around 3 levels per day at this rate playing around 4 hours a day (which still is a lot).

I'm sure 50-60 will be slower but that's fine, the really boring part is 1-50, once you get 50+ you do more fun stuff while you exp, such as pvp, exp where good stuff drops etc.

Keep it at this rate, add Yellow Text, watch box grow steadidly.

Box has huge potential, enjoying it FAR more this time around with the added ooc + exp bonus and ofcourse kubark

There was 112 on last night weekday. 154 was highest I saw on launch day, if your pals on LoZ had a set, they would come back to Red99 and make an attempt at playing again. So ez to say the server is 'corrupt' and shy away from the challenge. I left Red99 because of it's issues as well, but giving it a second shot in Kunark.

Ez to sit around and wait for the population to dwindle again because you can't nut up and contribute to it cuz it's 'too hard' if the 40 or so 2boxing stragglers that play on LoZ came to Red99 we would have had 200 on launch day.

Fact is if it can maintain anything over 100+ single boxed, it is a success as far as the pop goes and way more than any variation of vz/tz or loz considering their numbers r boxed, just not that many people interested in playing EQ 14 years later.
