If we win a guise raffle, will it go on a character of our choice or just the character listed on the kickstarter donation?

Went over it in more depth in the Velious Beta thread, but I don't like this. At all.

I don't understand why you think it's a huge deal. XP pots will help the raid scene get larger quicker with max leveled characters, a bonus in my eyes. Guise is just cosmetic really, shrink pots are quite easy to come by if you use the mask for shrink mostly. Early access to velious won't be a huge deal either because there will be no raid targets up and there are other mobs too that will not pop so there really isn't anything too great to be had. Whatever they can do to help to make this game happen is great because this server is just going to mostly migrate there. All the people who refuse to pay and support something they love will stay here, have fun bickering at each other because us good folk will be playing Pantheon [You must be logged in to view images.

yeah clearly we don't have enough max leveled players on this server /facepalm

I just don't like this. I don't like the RMT nature of things and I don't like pay to win games either.

Lots of stuff you can do in Velious even with raid mobs depopped to gain a distinct advantage. Off the top of my head:
  • Stormfeather.
  • Plank, etc. for BFG.
  • Log out a mage at WW/Zlandicar (or anywhere) to coth a raid force in when Velious launches for everyone.
  • Skyshrine key, CS portal key.
  • Make and distribute Thurg pots.
  • Camp valuable loot, including stuff like Holgresh Elder Beads and Velium Amulets.
  • Get your warriors/clerics in full quest gear to make day 1 raiding much easier.
  • Farm spells for your guild to have on day 1.

And so on. This is a pretty big advantage for something that doesn't even begin until the $100 price point.

I'm not a fan of exp pots and the raffle items at all, but I'm much more ok with them than the early Velious access.

I think its a pretty nice idea, especially to encourage a project started by EQ's creator.

Not sure what is pay to win in these little incentives... 1.5 hour 50% exp ?

a chance to win a guise ? a chance to win a fungi staff ?

I am defenitly considering putting some moeny there with the kickstarter perks plus these.


Well done staff.
