Why is teal not a pvp server?

Because Red and Green make brown. Teal is not brown.

This is exciting. Thanks devs!

I'm transferring. I'm kind of casual and usually solo so a lower population (which is the likely situation on Teal) just means I can camp what I want to in my play windows. Merging back with Green in the future solidifies this for me.

This is such a bad idea! You will halve the integrity of the server and everything people are working for right now, causing people to leave. So then you merge the servers once the population dips and all your left with is an artificial increase in items and a pain in the ass.

As many have said this experience is unique to EQ, fighting for resources and using wit to get ahead of the pack. Not only this but we're only in our first few weeks of lauch! 90% of the pop here are casual types like me who will probably never make those higher levels due to other commitments. The neckbeards camping the nice items will be same neckbeards regardless, just now they will have the chance to get 2x as many of said items. Give it time and the pop will reduce anyway and you can keep the integrity of green intact.

The increase in items will perfectly match the increase in players. A hyper small game like vanilla strangleholding the amount of items that 3000 players wants is shameful. Please don't get mudflated economics confused with players being able to play the darn game.

I absolutely love this! Thank you for reconsidering and giving us some relief from the chaos for a while. I truly appreciate this! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Awesome

Will green and Teal be dual boxable? I am hoping NO

Most servers were around 1300s in kunark. There were like 20 of them. Some were up to 3000 at peak around kunark velious.

Of those players, probably 300 of them were good at the game. The rest fuddled about like noobs do. Most people barely dreamed of getting to level 50 pre kunark. When Kunark came out, people were like '10 more levels?! I will never get there '

Nowdays we expect to be level 50 as soon as possible. Its a different game. Green is overcrowded. People are camping single spawn points of skeletons.
