It's going to be great for a select few, and non-existent for the rest of us.

The server split is just going to allow for you to have more mobs to slay while you level your alts. Not so you have a better chance at raid content. You're gonna have to join the one guild that locks everything down.

Gonna need to implement raid lists, rofl. What a mess.
EQ Raiding at it's core has always been flawed. The only somewhat workable solution is to ease bottlenecks. The current bottleneck forming on Green would have been epic beyond anything anyone has ever seen in EQ.

I think the Devs are calculating all of the raid petitioning they are going to have to deal with if they don't do something now. I would even be in favor of trashing Red and creating a third Classic Box. Red is a total waste of precious resources right now that could be used to spread out the population even more. Ideally 600-700 per server would be optimal.

I don't put anything past the neckbeards with Aspergers. They will constantly push everything to the limit because their autistic "accomplishments" will always be rooted within an ego that cannot be fed by the Reality. I'm sure a few will roll out 50s on both servers, but that's a lot of work and they will be doubling up their competition and time investment.
