I can't say how long I'll stick around for this. I'll try to endure as much as possible, but in my eyes, it's looking bleak.
I believe that pnp people will like this and it sounds like some people are really looking forward to these changes. And perhaps it'll make it a better place.... to some.
I hope it works the way it's meant to. I'm not a strong player, nor someone that understands builds and what you need to do what... and I prefer to party by choice, not by need. I know I know... choice is... party and survive or not to and die. *smiles* I think I can stay in low levels forever if necessary.
That's my worthless two cents.
This is why I think for proposed changes, the character base shoudl be wiped, as a fresh start.
Us spending time gathering gear, making gear, and all, will make us feel worse when the item is nerfed.
If the server is "new" no character base no old school items nerfed, and everyone starts fresh, there is less suffering gonna happen.

A lot of time & energy has been spent on gear. I am also concerned about Dev Crit being introduced (reintroduced ?).
I think, for balance if Driller does as proposed. then things shoudl work out fairly well.
Crits only effect PVP I think with Amber weapons, and the ability to take Dev Crit, it will balance out.

I like this idea, either/or/both parts would be good.
Personally I only care about my character names, and not so much their items and even levels.
but a test server would be neat to see how things balance out.
Perhaps the test server coudl run CEP 2.2 that way driller coudl play with updates and visual aspects, testing them as we all go.
I have been making a few areas last couple days, using CEP 2.2 I re-created the Undead Road to Skara Brae, for the fun of it, and I have to say, it looks really cool.
I have a few other ideas I may build upon tonight.
I may package up a zip file and email it to Driller.
