Teams - whats better?

[skacat]

0 teams.

it seems like without any incentives to not stack one team, it'll just end up with really unbalanced teams.

I never played teams EQ. If there was a way to incentivize being on the lowest pop/power team then that might encourage some variety, otherwise expect the team with the most min/max-y combos available to be 90% of the pop (aka evil team).

Also if there was actually any (non-erotic) role playing involved that might make teams make more sense, but that would involve a lot of GM interaction and wouldn't be very classic.

Think you could accomplish much of the same by giving guilds/groups some kind of incentive to stick to the team lines. There's so much non-game communication these days I don't see how you would prevent cross teaming and other shady behavior.
