Did most servers wake the sleeper immediately?
I have been thinking a lot lately about the difference between p1999 and live. I got to thinking about the sleeper, and wondered how it is anyone knew to leave at least one of the warders alive to produce a constant recycle. Was this information distributed prior to Velious release, or did the average server wake him, only to save the last few servers to know better?

I don't think anyone knew what would happen at first, but since it was such a huge event everyone knew afterward (I was a forum junkie back then so even I knew ... despite the fact that I wasn't even raiding yet).
After that it still wasn't like all or even most servers woke the Sleeper right away, each did it on their own time ... which is how that one server (Rallos Zek maybe?) managed to kill The Sleeper. They were a PvP server and because of the fighting they didn't manage to wake him until several expansions later, and at that point their gear was so out of balance power-wise compared to Velious content that they were able to beat a (supposedly) unbeatable mob. |
The warders were difficult, having no wiki to fall back on with 20 years of walkthrough knowledge (and lesser geared players that didn't gorge themselves on 6 years of kunark), so it took Brotherhood of the Spider 2-3 months to kill Ventani. After that, it was shared amongst guilds via the BotS web page (and the Sony forums).
After that, Sleeper was awoken on other servers more as a way for top guilds to cut ties and move on to superior Luclin content. |
