They won't be max as in the full value of the spell, but the maximum allowable hit in PvP. Whether that's 60% of the base or what have you.

It still comes down to did my dice roll get me a full resist (waste of mana generally speaking), or a full hit.

I don't think there should be a formula. I'm saying a formula would make it balanced, but not classic. Going back to my point. Classic PvP is far from balanced. Some classes like warrior blow. While some like bard are ridiculously awesome.

There are a lot of things that suck about blue too like over crowding, PL in every zone, twinks not grouping with hybrids, the raid scene at end game, farmers holding spots 24/7, etc. Red has none of that and can bring a lot of positives that some people may not realize. You are correct that twinks in unrest are a con but it ends up being a very small fraction of your experience if you actually play on the server.
This is it in a nutshell...well said.

Plenty of good peeps on red. Group with them in ANY zone you want for
crazy XP. Enjoy PVP vs griefers with your group. It's all about making
friends, which to me is what EQ is all about...

Top PVPers are NOT twinked out melees with fungis, but wizards, and I
don't think these wizards are over-the-top geared, they just know how
to play their class really well.

The mindset is all wrong though loramin. You're trying to avoid the full pvp experience by only trying to pve.

If you zone into say.... Mistmoore, and you see someone there on half health sat down not giving any shits about where they are - you don't have to pvp them, but you need to be aware that its possible.

You can kill them, take their coin and leave... or stay, let them loot their corpse, and they'll leave and go somewhere else or camp out.

The "pvp happened to me, I don't like it" mentality needs some work - you should be initiating pvp as well...and the first fight you win is as good as any dragon kill or epic quest completion in terms of the rush (especially if it was close).

...and trust me, you'll want it again [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Make pals, know your enemies... and learn the right strategies. It's the same game you always loved, but its a whole new game at the same time <3
Keep begging for people to come on your shitty server. I feel warm inside everytime i login and see (26 players currently online ) for Red

I feel warm inside knowing that there's some bluebie LFG in Karnor's not doing crap for hours because thats their only option for XP. I'll get more XP with a duo on red in one day than this person will get in a week or
maybe even a month.

There are at TON of benefits to a low server population...

Nailed it.

Yeah there's some shitty RNG to pvp. It's just the way it is but overall the server is a blast and is a welcome breath of fresh air from the piece of shit poster above me who is over represented in end-game blue.

I'm currently bringing back up my stocks of plat but if you need a helping hand getting started with spell money or other small boosts I can probably help. Bring some friends, roll some toons and experience something different. You'll have a blast.

*edit* two posts above me lol

I think I'm misunderstood here. I play both servers, have done for a long time. Just because I'm trying to help the underpopulated one doesn't mean I hate the other [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

...and thank you for the kind words <3
