Your custom server, what would it look like

[Tradesonred]

Were all here bitchin about this or that, what would your custom EQ server look like?

Server #1

My classic-ish Rallos-style server:

- One item drop per pvp death, coupled with Regular no drop events. This would ensure that server stays fresh for a longer period of time and also to help foster a good server economy.

- Custom nodrop sets to offset item loot. Would be fairly easy for any class to collect a set of no drop. Maybe 4 sets in all. One for level 1-20, 21-40, 41-55, 55-60. Droppable items would often be better than the sets but the nodrops would still be decent.

Since im not knowledgeable that much about end game gear, i cant speak that much on it but i would guess that the best droppable items would have to be better than no drop, all the time. So no nodrop end game items that are BiS.

- GM focus on creating events that arent of the duel sort, mostly. The blueprint for this is the halloween event of 2001. Undead dragon spawns in Lake rathe and have players have a go at it with no GM interference, things like that. Good portion of events that are tailored for newish players. Lawyerquest kept to a minimum with the only thing GMs are involved in, are trains.

- Faster XP. Something like 2x, 3x. Group bonus on xp, with solo xp being almost the same as a group of 2, to prevent people from logging off when they cant find a group.

- Xp gain on pvp kill (unsure about this one. Would have to think about the details and make sure it wouldnt backfire like YT did)

- Raid target variance, to prevent zerg locks
