Ok. This is not classic. Why won't you revive the sleeper?

All of this re-awaken the sleeper talk has me thinking.... What about for Green99: when the server wakes up green gets merged onto blue and new server pops up? Most epic server troll!

Yep, there was no cause to say exclusive back in era because it was self regulating. There were only so many that could per server, only so many that would do what was needed. Exclusivity was a thing in classic era but it wasn't spoken about like it is here. For sure Ring of Valor, Arch Overseers, Club Fu were the envied ones on Bristlebane but they were also the ones figuring things out and doing it. I just logged on when I got home from work, played and was caught up in the 3D revolution of a fully online world occupied by other people.

EQ required, at least in my view, such a substantial difference to be good and have the good things compared to other video games. Sheer love & hate. I still praise it to this day although I don't play P99 or video games much anymore. I can't touch new games that wants to put baby powder and a diaper on me and be considerate of me. Its like placating myself.

The players on the 4th warder encounter log getting merged into red would be a better troll.

Classic AF

Respawn warders but each warder only has a 25% chance to drop 1 item from it's loot table.

Not really though, at least by the P99 definition of classic ("up to but not including Luclin").

Remember, Velious lasted only one year on live. Just to get a enough of your guild keyed to get into ST tooks many months. To then get enough more keyed, and figure out your tactics for how to kill all the warders, took even longer. The absolute very first guild to ever wake the Sleeper did so past the halfway point of Velious, and it took everyone else longer than that.

This means that every server on live spent more time in Velious with the Sleeper than without her. Some servers hadn't even woken the sleeper by the time Luclin came out! On them there literally wasn't a single classic second spent without the Sleeper.

So if P99 was really emulating "how live was", the pre-wakening era should have been at least half the server's time in Velious. No one knows when Blue will end, but we've had what three years so far? Even if you give a pessimistic answer of only a few more years, we still should have had the Sleeper era for way longer.

But, again, the case for bringing back the Sleeper (or at least the pre-wakening era) is only going to get louder louder here over time. If Rogean and Nilbog won't do it now, wait and see what they say in ten years.

P.S. If the devs were really classic they wouldn't have even started coding Sleeper until maybe now ... but they wouldn't tell us that, they'd just let TMO put in all the effort to clear all four warders, only to find bugged code [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Velious with Warders is more classic than Velious without Warders. Server is gimped
