Default My outlook on P99 red

This is so far from EQ 99 its not even close, I get the general population is lower that's fine but when u make a Iskar don't even think of the "LONG HAUL" of exp ur gonna miss out on. Look towards soloing forever cause no one but MULTI BOXERS are around this game is a utter waste of time I tried and tried and there was noway to progress I just kept dying BUT according to other people I should make a mainland character well what the hell I want to play a Iskar SK like I did in on live back in 99.

The prices of red is extremely to high, I have not SEEN ONE not ONE boss spawn in Kurns tower I was there 3days straight 10hours a day all weekend hounding the spawns not one poped so ether their not spawning or someone glitched them or something.

I don't think the Iskar's have so much vs them its not even funny not only being the most hated, No main land, No groups, negative exp, its just wow... only people who play them have been piggy backed or multi boxed which is not 99..

Im sorry but I will have to uninstall and bid my farewells and stream a different game and server though the place in my heart for 99 is for the best I just don't see it anytime soon. 3years running and barley toping 1k people online...

the only part of this vitriol that's true is that it's difficult to level away from not only the mainland but from GFay itself.

7ish Months ago I strayed from blue onto red and foudn it to be quite the opposite.
Bitches love iksar and there were almost always people to group with.

His complaints are ridiculous though because red 99 is not classic eq, if he wants the slow grind he should get back on Blue. Red is classic eq + a bunch of fluff to attract new players because the server on it's own is not good enough to do so (at least 1/3 of the population are shitheads that will camp you in their fungus while you're still wearing cloth and swinging rusty's)

I can count on one hand the twinks that PK consistently on red. Other than those...not much griefing goes on.

1. Mesrine - deleveled rogue that sometimes PK's in CB and Unrest
2. Imawizard - deleveled wizzie that PK's sometimes in CB
3. Survival - Super-twinked ranger in CB and GFay...but if you pay him he'll pretty much leave you alone. His <Faydark Taxman> guild roleplays, lol

That's all I can think of off-hand. 3. Three players that consistently PK. There's one or two that hang around MM for the 20's-30's crowd and a couple that gank in CoM.

NONE of them stay logged on long because they're ADD.

Right right, you know of every single twinked pk'er that graces the server. Quite believable, except you missed about the fifty of them I've encountered in

Greater Faydark, Crushbone, Mistmoore, Unrest, Field of Bone, Guk
and many zones I'm missing, but AKA: all the most popular leveling spots and newbie areas.

And it doesnt matter how many or few there are when one of them can easily wipe out an entire group of non twinked players. Hell, even moderately twinked as my monk was (fully geared, not the best stuff; robe of living fungus, master wu's trance sticks ETC) with a healer/buffer in group we could not kill this one particular monk that would show up every hour or so and ruin our group xp. fact is that they are pretty consistent, it seemed to me like they just left twink pkers camped in certain zones and would just do rounds because you will see some come around like clockwork.

You're a moron. Grief kills are 95% of the kills that happen. The majority of the leaderboard is twink grievers. You neglected Bakingsoda (#6) with 120 kills, almost exclusively in crushbone, who has 250k+ in gear. Silvers has 200 kills at MM. We almost killed him the other day with a bunch of scrubs. Within 5 minutes he brought 2 more twinks to PVP until we had to plug. The red crew tries to recruit players to their server from blue, only to grief them to try to show off their very small epeen. It's a joke.

With two characters under level 37, I've barely ever played an hour straight without getting attacked. Which I don't mind, given its a PVP server. But it's always being attacked for no reason, by people with full MR gear that are full on twinked. The inbreds on red make the blue endgame players look like saints. Yall enjoy your garbage can
