Its time to go Red. Pop on the rise. Noobs protected. GM Events. Put your story here!

CB / Unrest / MM ...twinks park, twinks will be assholes. This isn't anything new, but it seems to catch a lot of people out.

That said, it's part of the learning curve. Don't carry any cash on you (bank before going somewhere like that), they can't loot your items. If you can't take being killed on a pvp server regardless of who or why it happened then you might be better off on blue.

The added challenge is what makes red players the best EQ players though - typically people know the combat mechanics far better than the average blue player and it definitely takes time.

I'm no expert versus any of the veterans, I never played on the live Zek servers or any of the VZTZ incarnations.

The more you practice the better you'll get, and joining a guild they'll help you improve with some good tips/advice.

Nothing beats the thrill of your first pvp kill though... chase it, it's better than pizza.

No one's complaining, just answering the question about rise in population. and you're late with the amazing idea as crushbone is being avoided by not logging in anymore

What's the current level distribution currently like? Many lower level players still? Decent class variation?

the pop caps around 300 during peak time and the lowbie zones are mostly empty. once velious drops, i would expect a wave of new twinks will flood in from all the lewtz

Started up recently as a shaman (playing only when monk friend is online) and cleric. It does seem like most of the server is 50+, but there are still plenty of people to group with! And quite a few of the 50+ people actually hang out in the newbie zones to hand out buffs and help against the twinks. It seems most of the 1-35ish people are leveling on Faydwer but my favorite group so far formed in Oasis and then moved on to Guk. PvP has been fun! Even had some good pvp with mostly untwinked enemies over an xp spot.

Shaman is iksar and things are different there. Fewer people on Kunark, but still found groups in FoB pit, Kurns and WW where we're currently fighting giants to scrape together some money. We'll start out duoing but someone will inevitably join in as time goes on. Weird thing about Kunark though is that there has not been any pvp. Maybe something to be said of iksar solidarity?

29 cleric and 24 shaman, so far having a blast [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
