less lvl = less balancing issues
we all know its a different game for EQ at different lvl and in no way we will be able to compose something totally different in the time, unless until next year
how hard for a legit person get full set of ro(or similar) at lvl 30 and full spells? i lvl'ed a war to 27 in 6hours(not trying hard enough :( )
i have said many times that the #command should be off(in one way or the other), but with the skill, armor, spell at 30
it simply make the game easier to progress and open less zones as the game goes
if you start at lvl 1, few months later then you will still need to keep them up which would waste up your space, that makes the game take less server space too.
try think of lvl30 as lvl1, where you start ok? its the same shit but with minimal equipments, like how naked you are facing a fire beetle at lvl 1
or make it start at lvl 20 since 1 to 20 is nothing anyways(i have 6chars 50+, 2 are 60s)
also, i dont see how i am contradicting myself, lvl30 w/ro(or 20 w/banded(or plate, etc etc))(make the newbie stuff no drop) and shits is same as lvl1 naked, both of them are crappy ok? you will still be crushed by a mob thats 1 or 2lvl higher than you, see what i mean?
its less of a balancing work and server load and makes the game progress faster(fewhours?...)
making it lvl1 means you will have to waste your time in the lower lvl again since there is no grouping or techniuqe required to play in the lvls anyways, lvl1 is basically slaughtering the yard trash infront of the city for hours, fun? you can't change much in lvl 1 cuz everything is too darn low to modify to make it reasonable, have you been playing the eqlive from 1 to 10? killing rats, orc pawns fire beetle over and over for hours? fun?
and for lvl30 there are much better zone connections than a lvl 1 can ever get
(good)FV/DL(uber zone on the wiz port)/LOIO/FM/OT(bad)/KC(high end zone)
thurga/GD/velk(high end)/EW/kael(uber zone)/CC/IC/ToFS
nexus/SH/etc etc(open it like a web)
this way you wouldn't need to change too much to actually make the game to work
with zones you can make all the people closer together(to create economy and groups)
of course you can make it a lvl 1 zones back and forth, but as server goes, there will always be lvl 1 that eat your server load who will be at the newbie zone for long time
last question, how is it contradict the idea of legit server?
unless you don't get what i mean
