- Make the xp bonus 100% across the board (no decrease)
- Remove Hybrid Penalty - No Mana on PVP Death and have rez sickness for 3 minutes - No Binding in FFA zones - City Binding - Bring Kunark in this summer (Need to catch up to the blue server) Wild Card - Make the ecommons tunnel or zone a non pvp zone - not classic I know but atleast a place where people can trade, form groups, or find a port/rez. |
non pvp zone doesn't sound like a bad idea doubt it happens tho and truth is pop is so low at the moment it's not rly needed.
at least consider making the current xp bonus a straight 100% across the board. Listen, I've already down the grind twice, once as a mage and once as a melee. As a mage it was prolly a bit too slow, as a melee it was fucking brutal. again, with just me and a druid doing bat PL clearing basically the entire zone from entrance to bat 2 I was still getting a level every maybe 5 hours? If you think it's bad for casuals now good luck in Kunark when level 54 is going to take you 40 hours if you're lucky as a melee, and another 40 trying to find a group. all in all good to see changes being made, better some than none, I like YT but it was the least important for server health of all of those things so it's not a huge loss, especially with global ooc. |
XP is already fast enuff-- doubt maybe people come here to play alone.. i cant imagine there are that many people looking to play a 12 old game by themselves as a melee on a pvp server
Any further changes to xp and ur trivializing the game. This is still "EQ" the game is known for the grind, if you want to instant spawn PvP play an FPS. I think people just trying to conform the server to the games of today with 'xp bonuses' and 'rested xp'. Getting a 50 in classic was quite an accomplishment, getting a 60 was even more so- part of the attraction of this game is the grind, and the accomplishments against the grind, at least for me.. if you don't want the grind, then don't play.. "Global OOC" should help with groups thus helping xp, other than that fix getting rooted with 167 MR and give us some content :) |
My opinions:
-The xp penalty on death is trivial and small and it DOES serve many side purposes. Leave it be. I can't belive people are complaining about such a trivial loss of xp. -I like the idea of city only binding or at least no more binding in raid zones and dungeons. -Class based xp penalties, keep them they are classic but consider making them not get shared out with the group since we all "know" about them and it does hinder some grouping/community. Getting rid of them completly would not be right because lets face it, a paladin/SK >>>>>>>> warrior in 9 out of 10 situations. -General XP bonus. I was against it and under no circumstances should it be raised even more. This is p99, not Al'kabor, EZ server or EQlive. Leave this alone. -Gobal OOC I am against because it will disrupt immersion in game. Amelinda can't keep up with the shemale porn here, how is she gonna keep up with nazi/kkk/homophobic/sexist/profanity/spam in game? -No mana upon pvp death: great idea and needs to happen. Please remember that a GREAT many of us are here because this is a "hard" version of EQ. We are here to get what we cannot get else where, the most challenging experience possible. Harder is always better, PLEASE talk to Nilbog about all this before acting on it. |

I think it's fast enough when people can get groups, but a lot of the time (esp cuz of the low pop) - lower levels cant get them. Maybe increase it until the server gains some population (if this happens) then drop it back. |

oh god here come the few poopsockers left on this server shitting up this thread. Do a search function for XP. The VAST majority of people left this server for one of two reasons: 1) Getting griefed at launch because of no guard assist etc. 2) The XP rate being too low for a PVP server where getting a group/XPing is much harder, and having alrdy "done" the grind on blue.
I get it, the few people left here want to have a monopoly on the high end content by setting the bar incredibly high for entry to the end game, it's not unlike the entire concept of needing a professional license to work as a dentist or lawyer or doctor, etc. If you want to actually increase the pop, the exp boost should apply across the board, and at the very least don't penalize groups for trying to help hybrids. Good luck Shadowknights in Kunark at level 54 cuz I'm not grouping with 3 gimp hybrids in my group and getting .01% exp a kill on whites and yellows in sebilis. Took a PVP death? Sorry 1 hour of your time. A lot of you are missing the point that some of these changes will be needed for Kunark as well. |
100% exp bonus across the board
1 item loot instead of exp loss Done |
Many of us came here because we were told this was going to be classic style p99 on a red server. We would never of came otherwise. We would feel deeply betrayed if the server continued to slip into ezmode, one mechanic change at a time.
Keep this server what it was ment to be. Harder is better. There are 10k other servers and games out there for fast xp, no death penalty, "everyone is a winner! everyone gets a trophy!" type games. Sirken, sound the alarms because the trolls are out and trolling the devs into VZ/TZing this server up. IF you do not have the commitment to level up a character without 200 percent xp bonus, you will NOT last here anywas. What did the last round of xp bonus do for the population? Nothing. |
Wow 100% xp bonus across the board, removal of hybrid penalty SOMETHING THAT WAS CONFIRMED RETARDED BY VERANT, omg server now ezmode
