Yes I'm aware of that.

Did you know that there's over 100 zones in Kunark era EQ, some of which take 10 minutes just to run across?

How much time does 1 spend finding the other 1 to make 2, especially with a +/- level restriction? Maybe you can research this and let me know.

But if they are actually sticking the exp bonus permanently then that's encouraging.

The vast majority will focus on the major dungeons. Sure you can hide from pvp, you could easily do that on live as well, but the competition is always going to be over dungeons and "pixels" that give you that advantage in pvp. Especially early on when kunark legacy is out, it won't be hard to find people.

exactly, it was never about xp.

I think it has more to do with many of the people who came to this box have a bad attitude in general. "I'f im not winning the box, im not gonna play it" type deal.

The people who left cant stand not being the top guild, nor do they want to put the effort into knocking Nihilum out of that place. They'd rather not play at all.

The server can't come back at this point beyond being a solo box for one guild and the same old five-six people who decide to try red for a week then quit. The good will is gone, the first / second / third / fourth impressions already made, the only way to get people back is to wipe and start with all this shit in from the get go + kunark. The only thing short of that is maybe some sort of MASSIVE PR effort by Rogean trying to sell kunark as a "new start" with better communication and shit, but honestly, I give a wipe a much better chance at happening than that.

This is about right.


If this new exp rate is sticking, I'm not opposed to driving this server like I did several months ago and getting my own crew playing, but I'm not going to be the only guy doing that (like I was). I'm not gonna advertise and play here if everybody else is committed to saying it sucks and is dead.

If other big coaches want to go in with me on that then maybe we can revive it. I doubt Rogean is ever going to do PR for this (he doesn't even post here?) and I also doubt he will ever pull the plug / wipe, so it's up to what's left of the player community.

You speak very deep , sublime, and eternal truths Kilbur. I hope your words of wisdom can get through to all those founding fathers who fled in search of ez'ier pixles on EZ69

Andis, this is your wake up call. Red99 is the only and 99.9999 percent last legit classic red EQ server that is ever going to be. Do you really want your last action on it getting rolled for 5 hours straight in lavastorm and failing to kill even a single raid target?

Not a good look bro, not a good look. History about to pass you by.
Why kill the raid targets if we don't need there loot? Nihilum died all the same while using no haste items, advisor robes, and jagged bands.
