A lot of people probably quit Mischief around the time Spite Golems were dropping 20 god/dragon items per kill not realizing it’s just double or rarely triple loot now and has been for ages.

Mischief is likely to be more popular in all metrics than Yelinak during equivalent points in the timeline.
Sure, but what about to Phinigel? Or the fifth Mischief TLP to Yelinak? It being new and unique is huge but not sure that for sure means it's truly the most desired or popular ruleset.

It would be interesting to see how a free trade non-random server does against the recent TLPs. A lot of people I know playing Yelinak hated the random and extra loot way more than it being tradeable.

Anyone else finding that the Vaniki krono market is super-dead?

Went to buy kronos on day 3 and got nada for responses then or any time since. Saw a few for sale in Baz for way more than they usually go for at the beginning of a server. The krono market on Mischief and Aradune was BUSTLING a few days in. Here, it's like dead quiet.

Having the bazaar available probably changed things.

Vaniki gonna attract the type of crowd that is less likely to sell Krono.

Casuals sell kronos in the bazaar.

Hardcores buy them, recycle them or sell them outside of game.

If you wanna Krono farm Mischief and/or Yeli the servers you should be on.

Right now sat at 9pm population

Mischief 1330
Yelinak 2971
Vaniki 798
Thornblade 342

I still have little doubt that Mischief will hold the most population after these launches though.

Damn, that's impressive. Any particular strategy or just the bind rush? Surprised it wasn't KT since he's about the same difficulty with much better loot.

Charm pets do most of the work (and also break frequently). As long as enchanters don't all take a nap at once, that's doing a ton of DPS. Other than that it's a lot of bind rushing.

Rethinking playing an SK on this server because tanks have a pretty shitty job overall, at least for now.

I was wondering if the lower resist checks on mobs would affect charm break checks. Do pets break more often with the higher level disparity between charmers and pets?

Higher level things are as resistant as they would be if they were the same level as you.

Not really. I was timing charm breaks in Gunthak and getting the same amount of breaks on mobs 6-7 levels higher than me as I was on 2-3 levels below. Either that was some super weird RNG or there isn't too huge of a difference.
