What? It clearly shows Phinigel has 20 active guilds clearing Gates of Discord within the last 2 weeks, compared to 13 on Agnarr completing Classic.
It shows 14 completing it on Agnarr. How many guilds did the same on Phinigel? 9.

Why would we compare GoD era Phinigel when it's had years to develop as a server community to Classic era Agnarr which has had 11 weeks to develop? Seems more logical to compare classic to classic.

Are you going to imply that the expansion which was just beaten in six hours has a high skill benchmark? No one is claiming that classic raids are a feat of dexterity and skill but let's not pretend like so much changed by Gates.

Because that's never been the line of logic anyone has put forth until you? The standard argument is a TLP has its highest population from launch thru planes of power then drops off significantly from GoD on. Agnarr it could be argued had the strongest population rush due to players from p99 coming over and krono farmers who perfected techniques on Phinny flocking there. In that light its quite impressive that Phinny still has a strong raid population.

Because things in classic insta wipe the raid if someone touches the wrong thing? Classic is only challenging because of random 100k hits from bees and silly shit like that. Gates actually requires you to not be a retard. Gates was beaten quickly because there just isn't a lot of content, not because its ridiculously easy.

Gates of discord is ridiculously easy. Lay off the drugs.

Can't wait for OoW. The uber casual guilds will crumble to Simon says, Jelvan and OMM.

Dunno how quickly a guild will get the necessary 30~ Signets completed. I think all 6 trials are winnable at level 66 on expansion launch with a solid raid though.

I estimate 2-3 days to expansion defeat by the Neckbeards, 7~ for the hardcore and everyone else filtering in behind that.

Vishimtar will punish some casual guilds come DoN, but DoN is largely a joke. DoDH is where it will really heat up. Demiplane will separate the men from boys. Casuals will continue to farm CoA forever and struggle to even beat Sendaii and Draygun.

Man Level 70 EQ expansions were probably the best time period of EQ.

Not sure how many of you it would affect but it appears DBG is outright banning people for having "too many krono" on a single account.

Makes me very leery of these in game tokens as a currency in any future mmo games.

How many is too many? Im new but i heard of even 1 sort lived dupe.

Sure if you have 150 kr that seems like a lot. Doubt you'll be banned. But what if you have 5 thousand or more that you didn't earn but over a short period?
