Classic and Kunark don't really matter if you're raid geared or not. You'll have slightly better stats and weapons, but most of the time it doesn't matter as the gains from raid gear aren't much. There's basically 2 items like this in Kunark. You're still using basically the same weapons and same resist gear.

When you start getting to Velious Raid gear and beyond, it's a different game. My rings might have +8 to all resists. Raiding folks could have that plus AC, stats, and 100HP/mana.

You can get to the point where you have one group of people that have twice the health, twice the damage, and are immune to lifetaps and lures.

Fortunately, that point is impossible to reach in Kunark and Classic. Velious does have items that can lead to this situation, but the influx of them is pretty low. The +10sv all and 100HP stuff is only found in a few slots.
Ya velious was open on SZ from the start so that gear gap was pretty insane. In the kunark era a lead wouldn't be so insurmountable unless there was unsubstantiated VP farming for months on end but even then you can only get so lucky with drops and it wouldn't mean a raid force was invincible.

This is a thread for discussing the red server sir. If we get to a point in the conversation regarding merging a guild into it's hated rival to secure additional loot I'll hit you up. Your knowledge would be valuable on that subject.

This isnt live. So if you have not been in these battles first hand, and seen that gear and levels dont allways mean victory. Neither do numbers.


Sure you can throw 70vs 20 and thats gonna be gg. But 30 vs 40 with the 40 having better gear, fuller spell books, and more players isnt going to seal a win.


Like... i see it every time i log in..


Ive been in over 100 mass pvp battles on here, but you can tell me im wrong because you played SZ 13 years ago.

Sure. At the very end when everything caps PvP will be possible but I'm talking about something entirely different. Let's say Red is relaunched in the same way it was originally. I start with a crew of 24 players and my decry is to level as fast as humanly possibly, avoid pvp because it only takes away from leveling. Your crew stops and smells the roses (pvps at multiple stages throughout the game) Now both our crews are level capped but my crew has been in the planes for a solid 60 days longer than yours has because we raced to 60. We now have better gear, better resists, more hp, better weapons. No amount of strategy, skill, and/or tactics can stop a better geared force. The only way to compete with that is a zerg.

I'm saying that if there's a relaunch there needs to be level caps and a strong benefit to pvp.
The incentive to PvP is taking the PvE content. If you have additional incentive then that hardcore team of 24 would be stomping the other group even harder (item loot if that is what you are referring to).

Gear difference in classic is minimal. Melee are weak anyways so casters are where it's at. The gear you get in planes during classic are easily outweighed by skill and strategy.
