Bard swarming ruins classic experience.

[Tewaz]

Plenty of mobs on Red.


JUST SAYIN

If they're concerned about a classic experience, red is the worst option.

No item loot
Global OOC
Non-classic EXP bonus
PvP Global Text
Item Recharge doesn't function

May as well play on EQLive :/. It's about as classic as R99.

There's a total of 50 people in the classic zones across the server, exp is easymode, have global channels... Seems pretty EQLivey to me.

Lining up for exp and epics is so classic.

Many servers had raid mob rotations, and players becoming more efficient in their EXPing is hardly a surprise after 15 years of the game.

Player innovation and players working together... That's about as classic as it gets sir.

There is nothing classic about 1000 raiding players sharing Kunark content. That is a fantasy, sir.

Well, if it ain't classic, get rid of it. Right?[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

some silly "simple" solutions suggested so far.
Here's one...
Limit the number of mobs affected by the bard's song to some arbitrary number.
Code is already there for many aoe spells. (eg lightning strike affects only 4)

People who are suggesting everyone else should go to another zone are dicks.
If Im the right level for overthere in a group what am I supposed to do? Move the entire group to FV? Yeah sure. Good luck with pulling that off and not having half the group just log off. Also good luck finding replacement members in FV when people leave.
Like I say... dicks.

Or maybe we should just go to WW or FM and kill greens all day.

Same for groups in loio. Where should they go where half the group isn't going to quit rather than bother moving, and provide somewhere that they can get replacements when people leave?

Not everyone else xping in the zone is a druid who can just zip across several zones and just solo away.
Dicks.

(Get rid of the xp penalty and let bards group. They would be most welcome in most groups)
