There won't even be rezzes at all for some time, if you're under level 40 at the very least you're going to have to accept that you go grind back your lost XP. Even after more people level past 39 you're stuck with only 90% mana res, not clicky. 96% won't even exist until Kunark and people's clerics start hitting 57 or getting epics. The current glut of cleric epics won't be matched for a long time.

And aside from the economy and cheap twink gear, there's not going to be any drive by buffing when people's mana and regen are at a bigger premium and the server isn't topheavy with a ton of max levels. No one to log over to their cleric and HB the group, if HB was even a thing. No drive by PotG, no 50 plat PotG at the WC ring every hour....no PotG at all. Hell, there won't even be C2 until Kunark and ench's start leveling up and turning in the spell lotto scrolls. Who knows what kind of struggle it will be to find ports and even beg for SoW's for the first month or two.

That first year is going to be SLOW for the majority of people. Yes, there will be max levels in a week but its actually a minority of players who are willing to grind until their eyeballs bleed taking speed pills for a week straight.

The entire mana/hp regen issue makes me drawn to necro as a first character but even then I remember that Call of Bones at 34 is annoyingly high level research only and higher level words, and its pretty feels-bad-man.

If green really rolls over and restarts, it's the purest way to play classic EQ for the journey alone. Start off on a brand new, wild server with your friends and slowly take your group all the way to the gods themselves, meeting new people along the way.

The desire to carve out my place in (server) history is what makes me yearn for fresh servers. Playing the same server after you've killed every available raid mob in the game for others' benefit so they can leave to another guild gets weary.

You sweet summer children... you have no idea what is coming.

Just start another account and make new toons. Fight em up then make a new toon.

If the green server is just going to be an erased, reboot of the blue server then I'm going to farm the hell out of the green server... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I want to be the first person on the green server with a million platinum...

Looking forward to green RnF much more than the server.

You better have a team of people helping you and/or not require sleep ...

Remove the ability to multiquest from green!

I'm going to enjoy the less crowded blue and skip playing green.
