People that 2+boxed were just fodder for those that were even half way decent pvpers. a group of 6 real players > a group of 1 player and 5 bots.

We did this to cut down on petitions of XYZ person is 431boxing. Then we have to investigate and take time to deal with it. Do that 50 times a day for 50 different players and well..it gets fucking annoying.

This season (nice thing about seasons, we can try diff things) we decided to see how it works out. If it doesn't, wont have it next season.

Always get hyped for a fresh launch, especially if there will be some population behind it. Logged in today to check this server out. Kind of turned off by the fact that there is a gear merchant in Nexus. I don't think this server is for me. I guess it sees PvP as the major component, and not the gearing/leveling experience with PvP mixed in?

I was hoping to just enjoy leveling and gearing up on a fresh server without intent to participate in the PvP aspects. Oh well, have fun you PvP'ers :p

That's correct we are pvp focused. There is a gear merchant in bazaar to buy basic gear (kunark sets @ level 20) for coin. The best gear is bought with pvp points (gained by killing other players, or participating in PVP events) in the bazaar.

We give out the low end gear to help players jump into the pvp. So new players aren't at such a gear disadvantage because they didn't start day 1.
