I've had quite a bit of fun playing on the the all dessert no vegetables server. I don't think Daybreak was envisioning that players would vote for candy and only candy but now that we're here this unlock schedule doesn't fit the rest of the server at all. I get there's no changing it but with the rest of the game on fast forward eighteen weeks of Velious and eighteen weeks of Luclin is a long ass time for those expansions. It doesn't help that last year's TLP, Fangbreaker with it's expanded start ruleset, was stuck on Luclin forever. Selo and Vaniki had the unlock speed but lacked the QoL. This has all the QoL in the world but spends it's first year driving ten under the speed limit.

You have until October. I think time is not much of a factor. Also figure that July 4th will have a bonus so...

Server has been pretty cool as a casual. I'm multi boxing, taking my time. Exp as great. Tons of variety. Weird box combos etc. Maybe get into some small man raiding eventually. It's really no rush and the raid content is face roll, so not very concerned about it. People are chill. It's a good time.

I got 21% from one kill in xp bonus Mistmoore yesterday. Was level 30 something pulling inside the castle. Before that I think the highest I saw from one kill was 13-14%. I didnt know it was possible to get 20%+ anywhere ever.
Loot bonus is pretty sweet. I got 2 hiero cloaks from one iksar betrayer. Thanks Daybreak for making him rare flagged.

Messing around with it a little more the percentages you get at cap correspond to old explanations about the curvature of required exp per level. For example at level 30 you're at the bottom of a curve needing less experience to level relative to what you're getting than you did at 29. The exp cap at level 30 is in the low 20s because of that but then immediately goes back down. Hell levels and double exp loss on death levels were all normalized but can still have some impact including what the per kill cap is.

It's live xp rates and resource hunter hotzones, low levels arent really a thing unless you are looking for elf cyb0r

After all the iterations of it.. its still kind of fun? But Mischief was insane when it first came out. Golems dropping dragon loot and you could farm them. Obviously not intended, but that first couple of weeks was every nostalgia nerds wet dream.

Out of the blue I decided to play EQ again after thinking I was done with this game for good years ago. Just happened to be a couple days after Frostreaver launched, which I really knew nothing about. So when my full bank bags on my level 85 sk gave me fucking headache, I ditched that and decided to go full access and try the new TLP, Frostreaver. Again I didn't know anything about it. Just wanted to start over again. Never really played a TLP before.
Fuck, this server is fun. The rules are so cool. Check the frostreaver site for the day's map bonus and go a trekkin. Have a ton of toons of different levels. Trying out classes I never played before. Buying great gear for nothing in EC. And people are really easy going for the most part. Yeah there are lots of boxers, but everyone is cool with it. And the boxers are generous with newbies, etc. Just a much better experience than I expected.
Last weekend I decided to start up my other account so I could do a shaman box. And that was a lot of fun too. Only boxed a shaman with my sk main back in the day during off raid hours, but now I'm finding out how much fun they are with my other toons as they helped her level up. Fucking shaman mage box is soooo op.
I don't even bother buying expensive gear. I'm always broke anyways. Fucking casters and their spells. I refuse to do the krono thing but i did buy the mount and the box. The box isn't really needed but that mount is awesome.
Anyways, I was just killing time waiting for FFXIV's new expansion. But if I keep having this much fun, I may stick around for awhile.
