Nuke Red, turn it into a rotation enforced server for big name mobs, leave things like scout and other various quests as rolls play nice dont be a shit bag. Ie a server for people who love the game and want to play but cannot spend 10+ hours a day 7 days a week "competing".

Make green a I am the best at everything and demand to compete for everything cause I have 23 hours a day to burn socking crap. Ie I tie my junk around my knee cause it so big server. Purge green to blue every so often so big plays can "compete" for the same crap over and over.

Blue = graveyard or for players who don't wanna retart after all the time they dumped into their toon.


Just my 2 cents love the server staff is amazing to provide this to use .

If by Toxic we mean selfish and jealous then Toxicity is alive and well on Blue. Recently started lightly raiding again and am wondering if i made the right decision...People always going to be jealous, especially if they fail and another succeeds easily.

With the amount of guild breakups that happen on this server it leads me to wonder if perhaps something is inherently wrong with the raid scene. The list of guild diverges and descendants leads me to speculate why this happens so much.
Kind of a mistatement here IMO. There aren't a ton of guild diverges/breakups. There are guild diverges/breakups primarily within a specific subset of people who go through the same cycle of "form guild together, some of those people get annoyed and form new guild, and eventually they all end up in a guild together again down the road before beginning the cycle anew".

Yup. Non-instancing basically acts as content gating to keep people chasing the carrot.

Personally, I don't mind non-instancing at all because I enjoy the social aspect of raiding more than really caring about the loot. So if on a quake we only kill 50% of the hoped for targets, that's fine. Loot on a Velious locked server is kind of pointless anyway...like yeah it's fun to strive for upgrades and it's cool to get that really good item, but at the end of the day it doesn't really matter if you get it tomorrow or 6 months from now. There's no new expansion you need to gear up for, no drops that you need to help you in something like PvP battlegrounds, etc. Technically, very few pieces of loot will really make such a massive difference in your character, so we really don't need instances so that people can constantly have chances at various drops.

Agreed. BiS often isn't worth the DKP price. I got https://wiki.project1999.com/Vambraces_of_Discontent for 30 DKP instead of https://wiki.project1999.com/Onyx_Chain_Sleeves for 300 DKP, which would give me 40 HP and ~60 Mana over the Vambraces of Discontent. I'll gladly put that 270 DKP towards something else.

Some things have more than just stats, like Warrior Epic with it's hate proc. Those are what you should be aiming for when spending your big chunk of DKP.
