This is "classic," but not that (your favorite "#ButClassic" rulings)

So how many quest items does the person making all of these posts have stored away? And what level did they obtain once they were able to turn them all in?

Many people are making posts. Many people are making threads. This is a grassroots movement.

Stay tuned.

I think on the next project 1999 timeline server, it should be level locked for a given period of time.

I think it should also not have any legacy drops or bind points. They are either in the game fully, or not in the game.

So for first 2 weeks, level 10 max. For next month, level 20 max. For next Month, level 30 max, for next two months, level 40 max, then open.

Then there is no rat race to the top, and no rat race to get limited edition pixels.

Still going to have long poopsock lines for items like fungi but at least all the manic insanity for manastones and DE masks and bind clickies and stuff can go away and more people can focus on adventuring like they used to, instead of attaining little have/havenot trinkets.

Project 1999 PVE CASUAL once blue and green are integrated and after red 2.0, which I think should have the same server rules.


The reason I say this is because we can't replicate classic when in reality half the players are trying to replicate a previously never before attempted PERFECT play through where they hit all the high points.

DE mask, Lustrous Russet, Guise, Bind items from Kunark + bound at firepots, + +

These all take a lot of grinding and a lot of poopsocking when half of the server wants to hit these special secret knowledge places.

Manastones would be only attained via casino lottery like on LIVE, which keeps inflation from happening, and extra rare drop from the mob itself?

I dunno about guises, maybe the same thing. Rare drop, and casino lottery.

P99 has already done a lot to try to force classic life on the server and after green99 launch we know that we can't have a classic feeling launch anymore. People taking single spawn level 1 mobs because of over crowding is hardcore insane.

I can't speak for everyone but most of these posts, including mine, seem to be from people who have maybe 50 CB belts, or 50 LS/GLS, etc., waiting to turn-in at the quest giver. It might give me 1 level, maybe 2 if I'm lucky (that Ranger exp penalty is real). Nothing significant, just trying to play the game as it was intended.

Now lots of us are stuck in a limbo of: do I wait longer and play an alt in the meantime even though I really want to play my main character, or do I run all the way back to the bank to re-organize everything (again) just so I can start playing my main again? Running back on my Ranger without SoW from the gypsy camp all the way to Qeynos isn't trivial, and it would be annoying to do that just to have the Devs turn back on quest exp.

If you're committed to playing by the rules and are doing "nothing significant" you should be okay, but be careful if you play by the rules and try to do do "something significant."

I say double down. Got 50 GLS? Go make it 100. Got 1200 scrolls, go make it 2400. Let's go!!!

Bummer, well I guess I can't help you then. I wish there was a way to get more bank/invo space or more banks/invos.
