Returning player wondering about leveling and high population.
Hello all. Just reinstalled P99 after the Mangler TLP launch debacle.
Haven't played in a couple of years and I can't believe how much higher the pop is now. I seem to recall it maxing out at prime time at around 800 people or so. Why are there so many more people playing now...is there any consensus? I have a 35 Wizard as my character and I am debating whether I should keep playing him or roll a new toon. I have read Wizards can have a hard time getting groups and am not interested in doing much soloing. I would like to level in a group as much as possible. If i were to reroll, are there any classes I should avoid if I want to be able to find groups? Classes that interest me are Rogue, Magician, Paladin or Necro. Also, how is the low level grouping scene these days? Thanks! | ||

If you want to group as much as possible, you should roll a rogue. You will sacrifice virtually all your solo ability, however.
I'd try making some cash on your wizard via porting so you can boost your rogue up with some items and such. It will help you get groups if you are actually decently equipped, and you might have to solo a decent bit at low levels, so some nice gear will make it that much more palatable and expedient. | ||

I will second if you want to group and be dps on p99 roll a rogue, p99 has a hard-on for rogues I was literally in a group on my cleric with 4 rogues and a warrior once

Also the reason p99 is doing well on population is they continue to do things well and are consistent
Not saying it's perfect...the raid scene is very crowded and can be toxic, and at the moment we are running with very limited guide/GM numbers But they are consistent and focus on their goal of the most classic experience possible, simple as that

I think a lot of it has to do with that there just isn't a lot of great MMO's being released anymore. Even WoW is getting long in the teeth and people are getting bored [You must be logged in to view images.

I've never once seen or heard of a player getting denied a group or anything else due to their poor gear. Honestly I probably get more enjoyment out of meeting and grouping with new players wielding rusty weapons and wearing raw hide armor than I do a group of multiple fungi twinks when playing low or mid level content. | |||
