blue server will be deserted after green launch

[Dark_Magic]

I don't really understand the desire to play green, honestly. After putting a couple years into procuring pixels in Velious I'm going to start all over again so I can eventually procure pixels in Velious? Mind blowing.

If green really rolls over and restarts, it's the purest way to play classic EQ for the journey alone. Start off on a brand new, wild server with your friends and slowly take your group all the way to the gods themselves, meeting new people along the way.

The desire to carve out my place in (server) history is what makes me yearn for fresh servers. Playing the same server after you've killed every available raid mob in the game for others' benefit so they can leave to another guild gets weary.

You sweet summer children... you have no idea what is coming.

Just start another account and make new toons. Fight em up then make a new toon.

If the green server is just going to be an erased, reboot of the blue server then I'm going to farm the hell out of the green server... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Looking forward to green RnF much more than the server.

It's like playing a different game. When I leveled on blue there were huuuuge gaps in patches, raid mobs were on a constantly changing spawn variance, people overgeared due to years of farming kunark bis. Consumables were farmed for years resulting in guilds having bags full of wort pots for every member, instant aggro tools to hand out. Plat might not have been redundant but there was a lot in the economy. Mechanics were changed (invis pulling, sneak pulling, FD mem blur, instant epic spawn pieces like rogue hate book, gear stats altered) so much that camping high risk high rewards camps were monopolized by duos for years.

Will the same happen on green? Maybe. But not at first. And if the timeline progresses at the live rate we wont see ridiculous feats like 5 manning ST golems on week two of velious. We might see guilds actually prioritizing tank gear day 1 just so AOW can be taken down. It'll be fun watching guilds with only half their rogues having epic and cultural armor going into ntov.

That's why people are excited about a new classic server. Not because of a guise or manastone.

Remove the ability to multiquest from green!

You better have a team of people helping you and/or not require sleep ...
