Subject: just a musing


I think some of the comments I read illustrate the differences between
younger servers and more matures ones. For instance on mine (Nameless), you
can call sav/exec/sage/cav and no one will contest you, the BR means you get
EVERYTHING from the GIBS to the spiders to the gargs. Or call the entire
live side keep (which is, IMHO, incredibly fun for a full group of 6, there
is no camping involved you move in and around to all the spawns, rest up for
the king if you're feeling good, then repeat). An enchanter is definatly a
necessity in this situation, and it leads to some great tactics (AE spells +
AE stun are vastly overlooked given the super low mana cost of enchanter
stun and the dam:mana ratio of the wiz AE's, another is the bard hat trick:
pixie one mob, charm a second and sic it on a 3rd). Taking 14 frogs at
once: took 9+ RL minutes and drained countless stamina bars but it was tons
of fun and to those people that can't try it on crowded servers I'm very
sorry. =( I can only hope Verant quickly addresses growing server
populations; since the game is entirly different when its played without the
safety in numbers effect of overcrowding.
