New server - Windstalker

Discussion in 'Time Locked Progression Servers' started by Fresh TLP, Mar 9, 2020.

    Server name - Windstalker

    Release date mid April

    Selos EXP
    Starts in Luclin
    2 Month Unlocks
    LDON 2 weeks after POP
    Standard lockout timers
    Raid targets drop double loot

    This should appeal to the more casual gamer, fast exp double the loot and only have to raid 2 maybe 3 nights a week to do everything.

    Truebox server, would love a 2 box server but cant see how that can be policed.

    Thoughts??

    Also, everyone must maintain 80 hours /played per week to ever raid SolB.

    FV exp...or the fastest exp mod ever seen.

    Yes yes yes! Sounds so good.

    Have to add a rule that says you can't kill naggy or vox unless you are flagged as not casual.

    I'm pretty convinced there are (2) distinct groups of people when it comes to TLPs...
    1. Fast exp / Fast loot / Fast progression - want to experience lots of content, briefly.
    2. Slow exp / Slow loot / Slow progression - want to experience less content, repetitiously.
    Personally, I like the pace of play / actions per minute in the 1-70 game and the nuance of the 70-115 game.
    ...
    The focus on the 1-70 game on efficiency is quite unique - unlike most MMOs out there. When you get above 70 (or so) the game starts to turn into a DPS button masher so you can take advantage of out-of-combat regen.
    ...
    However, the 1-60 game is quite boring - virtually no abilities, etc. The 60+ game, with AAs and more unique features (more augs / clickies / quest benefits) is way more fun, but it goes overboard with some things and is too button-mash-heavy for my liking.
    ...
    If they could marry together the APM of the early game with the nuance of the late game, that would be perfect in my mind.

    If we're naming it Windstalker, it must be the following:

    Truebox, subscription & hero's forge feature required.
    Expansions unlock every 24 hours.
    Prior expansion hunter achievements must be completed in era to progress, else locked out forever.
    Everything requires a full 72 man raid - big mobs, little mobs, xp mobs, tradeskills, vendoring - everything.
    27,137 custom made PoK clickies available once PoP unlocks.
    All hats ornaments ever made are global random drops.

    of the 2 TLP servers approaching, and this one being the PVE one? Whatever you guys want idc as far as rules go. Just don't advocate for it being called Windstalker especially because there isn't an Aradune server. I'll go back to my PVP TLP threads now, thank you.

    I agree about starting date, perfect will be end of march / middle april, too long wait till summer.

    Hope what coming server / servers will be something new, not just another mangler/selo/phinny clone.
    I wait FV-Loot type TLP with AoC even with slow exp and any other rules.

    Windstalker server would be very easy and very affordable.

    Announce new server with much hype, enthusiasm, persistence, talk of a bright future.

    Cancel Windstalker server very suddenly a month later on a Friday night.

    Having played to level 80 i can assure you eq is almost a different game pre post 65. It doesn't surprise me at all that eq suffered back in the day around this time and it's not just because wow came out. The game is so fundamentally different that I agree there are different subgroups of tlp players.

    The lack of ow raid targets, the incessant keying, the lack of largely being able to just loot your gear (often you need faction, multiple pieces, quest lines or some combo) and the raids themselves quite often are really far from classic eq roots.

    A lot of this could be fixed with FV rules imo that ultimately benefit the casual player the most progression wise, but even the raiders benefit immediately by being able to take part in the marketplace via selling otherwise worthless gear.

    Oh hell something in the news about a person related to EQ? Better get in there so I can post my novel ideas about what a TLP should be with their name on it!

    Why would you want to name your server after someone that just abandoned and quit on everyone?
