Default YT isn't the solution

Sorry VZTZ bros, YT doesn't solve shit. If you want to brag about your kill, take a screenshot and post it.

More so than not, the one who gets the YT got a lucky hit, only did 5% total damage to the person and gets to see their name announced to the server. Amazzzzzzzzzzing. I rather my druid in my group be watching my health and healing me instead of trying to get that nuke off when X player is at 3% health and they think they can get that YT.

OOC... yea I could see this being helpful and there would definitely need to be a way to toggle it on and off.

The server pop sucks because it caters to the poop-socking, basement dwelling, 10+ hour days of grinding neck-beards.

You can't deny this. If you're level 50 with decent gear, I welcome you to post your /played time bros. It's probably disgusting.

XP needs to be multiplied to an adequate level to support the small community. Face it, the amount of people who play or who want to play EQ PvP doesn't come close to those who want to blue it up. Even with the scaling bonus and being power leveled, it takes a ridiculous amount of time.

At this point of the server the population for lvl 1-40 is basically non existent and when you finally get 40+, prepared to get stomped on by the people with 25+ days /played.


in b4 Harrison - you're fat
in b4 Lazorfag - your brother is better than you

As Princess Salty would say, "come at me bros"....

The problem with an even higher straight XP bonus is that it trivializes the investment of time required to level a character. This reduces the effectiveness of suspensions and bans. All the hardcore folks can push the limits of cheating / rule breaking because it would only take them a day or two to level up another character.

One way to increase XP for the casuals and not benefit the hardcore would be to have a small window of XP bonus based on last login time. For example, if you've been offline for 5 hours, then you get an XP bonus for the next 2 hours while you're online.

leaderboards as well, currently the server is pointless to play on as it gets old killing the same nihilum zergers for the 800th time whereupon i get to sit and med for 10 minutes, having made them lose nothing for their death and having gained nothing for my victory.

at least yellow text and a leaderboard would provide some form of motivation.

110% accurate. Casual gamers stand no chance
