Merging Made Sense Then COVID-19 - Unmerge

[turbosilk]

It's rough trying to find places to group 40+ with my friends. Everything is camped by exp groups or solo level 50s plat/item farming. Nilbog, this isn't the classic experience where hordes of 50s have nothing else to do because everyone is at home.

Seems reasonable to split again until summer is over and it appears COVID-19 is passed and everyone isn't sheltering at home.

Lower Guk is far from camped. Sure, the main named camps are camped, but plenty of other places to form camps and exp.

When we checked it out the camps for ppl in 40s were all camped. Looking for an open camp to take pre-made groups to was impossible today. We roam to many places on a regular basis but today was a an especailly bad day.

Mabye our timing in each zone was just bad rng.

Moving back to unresolved. Resume as you were

It really is rough if you have friends and you want to find a camp for 4 to 6 people.

If you’re a loner it is pretty easy to get into a group after visiting a dozen camps and getting on lists.

Personally I think a second server makes a lot of sense in these crazy times.

The bs thing is level 50s camping every named spawn in guk. This isn't how it was in classic. In classic there were exp groups camping level appropriate spawns. When I saw how Lguk was on this server I was pretty disappointed as it had been my favorite place to level on classic but its an abomination on this server. Somehow a single level 50 has as much right to a spawn as 6 people. Even if you were to form a group to camp the old school camps as soon as a bored level 50 came they would be able to take one of your named camps.

shoulda been good at the game and leveled to 50 in the first 3 weeks, avoided the casual scrubs that clog the pipes of EQ.

Oh Phaezed you'll need to try harder with uninformed insults.

[Phaezed-Reality]

not an insult, its the reality. im not trolling. With high pop, you needed to blaze through the levels as fast as possible early on. If you didn't you are now stuck in the slog of casual and bad players. it's seriously awful.
