imo ToA made the game last longer for hardcore players as they had to get "uber" again and to sort out their guild groups n setups but for the casualy player like me hu plays mayb after school for an hour n a few hours at weekends it ruined it. I mean how r u meant to get all of your artifacts etc + items when first you need lots of time to camp them and secondly a hell of a lot of money. ToA was a good idea but Mythic went about it the wrong way and as for NF it is only good because its new n looks nicer, on a server like prydwen i mean during primetime i have seen hardly any keeps change hands compared to OF and any RvR raids take place at early hours when people are asleep. Catacombs should have been releases b4 ToA and NF to give more of an extended life but i mean wots dun is done so wot can we do about it? go n farm n become "uber" which takes up every hour of your free life or simply hav a laugh or 2 with sum alts n basically try to get your char half decent. I have loved playin DAoC for the 3 years i have but imo DAoC has gone down the drain and Mythic will be VERY lucky to keep people since WoW will be out on 11th Feb and i will be joining the ranks. My 2 cents.

it is unlikely that clustering will affect Prydwen, as we are not a low population server :p

well
allot are rvr:p a high percentage...
And don't compare a of keep take with nf keep take...

OF keep take is simular to NF tower take.
OF rr is simular to NF keep take.
NF relic raid is simular to "amgad am watching a dia-show again!"

1 major fact people forget ..Games are meant to be fun and no matter how you look at it TOA is not fun, it's just homework.

Farm fro 30 hours to get than funkeh new ability..ok but farm for 30 hours to get some scrolls so you can activate the arti that after a further 30 hours farming you can use as part of a template requiring you to farm for another 100 hours to get sorted..zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

ToA takes too much time and is essential at the same time. Arties, for example, should only be done ONCE, and it should have been unlocked for all chars on that account. That would save so much time. Same for MLs.

It seems obvious to almost all of us here that TOA is a real fun killer at times...

The thought of going through the same old ML stuff for a new alt and the hours wasted in levelling up artifacts just take their toll after a while.

In a good RvR grp, I can still enjoy the game a fair amount but it is very hard to motivate myself to do the same old PvE again and again...

The only way to try to keep the game fresh and interesting would be to try yet another class but short of PL that's almost impossible where I am now...

I miss simpler times :(

I have actually found TOA to be getting better.

Sorting out of the artifact leveling to specific zones. Going to PoC is very pleasant for leveling aload of artifacts at one time.

Scroll drop rates are improving in the near future.

The NF RAs have made a big difference for getting some of the artifacts. ML9 Convoker Pet (Midgard SM/BD) have made alot of tank based mobs very easy. I think 2 ML9 pets fully buffer with a aug healer, kill the Wave master in 120 secs. With duration gear, you can have a pet up for 6.5 mins out of 10. Then you can pop juggernaut.

I don't deny that in the past TOA has been a total drag.

Alot of people have left daoc mainly because of the RvR system and because 8 v 8 RvR is dead .

Toa was not worst thing just the ml's spoilt it and constant scroll farming .

But the real problem is NF it killed daoc 8 v 8 rvr is dead mainly why alot of excal players left and if dont believe me then ask them.
