Be true, Unbeliever.
I shoulda popped in here when I saw a bunch of people join the discord. I'm on green, have been from the start. 60 sham/SK/rogue and working on an enchanter right now. Several blue characters as well. Anyone needs any quest help or anything hit me up. I'm dathom1x on the discord or Burrick/Fray/Namae in game.

Have there been any rumblings of them starting the Green cycle over again?

I've been waiting on a new server because the leveling experience doesn't really do it for me with the population so top heavy.

I managed to take on the Testament of Vanear quest at 19 which is cool and good and it's definitely my nicest item. Currently, I'm trying to buy a Springwood Club for my druid to have a more beneficial weapon than what I am currently rocking. Anyone happen to have that or something similar for sale?

There are a couple of Chardok 2.0 weapons you might want to consider. Di'zok scepter of authority maybe?

That thing looks pretty sweet but looks to be way out of my league in terms of price at this point. Is it worth saving for something like that or should I just hold onto my plat?

I'd save as much plat as you can while leveling.

What about a Paw of Opolla? I remember questing that thing for my cleric and got some good use out of it.

Very questable as a lower 30s druid but there's a couple of gruelling camps to get it that you do not want to try at 19

But yeah honestly you need to let go of the idea that you'll still be meleeing anything 20+ as a druid

Oh boy, it's me again posting that I'm giving this stupid amazing game I have fond memories of game another crack. Probably my 6th post to this effect in this thread over the years.

Glad to see there's still a healthy amount of people playing. I logged in my Druid and decided to get my Testament of Vanear quest done and was able to complete it in 20 minutes, easy. Working on my Paw of Opolla now and god drat, do I have to camp this stupid mummy for 20 hours?

I may just buy it in auction then. According to the wiki it's been selling at 250-300pp which isn't bad. Anyone have any recommendations for easy solo camps for a 37 druid?

The Self-Found ruleset is how I played P1999 anyway so it's pretty cool to see it as an enforced option!

I quit before Luclin so I never got a chance to play PoP. Is it worth it to switch over, are all the cool kids playing here? I didn't see any setup steps/guide there, maybe I'm missing it. What kind of client/installation do I need?

I'm hearing some hype about it, but my guess it most people are waiting on more details about the server.

I might make one or two characters if there's a drive to try the server. Right now a couple of us are playing new gnome mage alts on Blue, about levels 7-9 in Warrens if anyone wants to join a semi-regular exp group. Exp has been flying.

It sounds like some of the takp admin might be providing support. But it痴 a very reasonable concern.

Yeah I would mostly be worried about their decisions (and those of the people they'd bring on as CSR) to enforce any of the less baked-in rules. There are some very novel types of griefing that I can imagine springing up between players on different rulesets, especially in raid environments.

Certainly not a reason to avoid if all you want to do is mess around solo/grouped.

Been having a lot of fun sitting at HH in Overthere porting people constantly. I've made about 2000p casually the past couple evenings just watching vids and porting people that run up to me. Also, being in Dial a Port is awesome. I've nearly kitted out my Druid to have 200 wis. Saving up for a Lumi staff now so I can have it by the time I hit 46.

apparently Uthgaard is on the CSR staff for this server? I don't remember all of the drama around that guy, but there ya go.

Secrets is a very talented dude but has uh, a colorful past.

I hope its good but I suspect badmins are going to be a huge problem.
