Time to bite the bullet

Yep there's a flat XP boost and more added if you're grouped. If you're a caster it can be difficult to keep up with spell cost as you're leveling faster than you would normally but overall its no bad thing - buy the essentials.

Druid is a good pick for being able to get around, can do a bit of everything and as a pvp class its fun (I think). If you're feeling a wizard then that's not a bad choice either, I leveled mine mainly solo with groups as they appeared LFM in OOC.


@Tassador have you got any advice?

Is the flat exp boost 200%???

Or was that just for server launch?

I haven't parsed or measured but apparently its 50% on top of blue XP rates, then per group member more is added on top of that.

Lastly- The thing about red that excites me isn't cause the server is just chalk full of nonstop pvp.. No no no.... It's taking your regular everquest experience, and adding some grit to it... When i first joined and for a while after, i was so afraid of people haha, and that was a new feeling.... I didn't trust anybody or anything... Ports, Buffs, PL's, Money, i turned them all down due to not knowing who to trust, and for some reason that felt really cool and different after 4 years on blue...

One day my cleric will hit 60 or 50 or 55.

On that day. I'd like to help some other ppl hit 50 and get some pixel toys and adventure a little safer from pvp than they would be if they were just naked and starting out at lvl 1 on a rogue.

One day. I'm not trying to rush for that day, or get help and speedily get there, because my reality is sporadic and I honestly can't promise I will be here on this server tommorow, but those are my dreams. I've disappeared from red far too many times. Either taking my pixels with me or leaving them behind, it's better if I try to be there though, in perpetuity, in a healthy way, and I welcome anyone else on this endeavor.

Yep. Its just regular everquest, with grit. Non pvp just feels like half the game is disabled. Stats don't matter. Being aware of anyone else in the game doesn't matter except when they are killing the mob that you want (which will inevitably happen since its so easy to basically AFK camp so many spots). The game is just missing a surprising amount.

48 strong minded individuals popping on red99 at the moment. Anyone got game? Just click on the server link....

Every time I log in to make sure the game still works I intend to play on blue or green and "tool around" but every single time I end up saying "fuck that" and play on low pop red instead.

Red till the death. With every day begging for a new server.

For dooks sake if red was vanilla locked and 50 pop it would be a funhouse of pvp excellence. Mostly happening in Lguk.

So many ways to make red more fun. Item loot vanilla locked being top 1
