I was reading the latest Grab bag and saw a refernece to "All the mids are leaving the servers, blah blah".
http://www.camelotherald.com/more/2034.shtml

On the VN rogue boards I read the whines that all the Mids were leaving.

http://vnboards.ign.com/Midgard_Rogue_Professions/b20912/87461121/?1

So I thought ahhh but that won't happen to Excalibur....

http://www.duskwave.com/daoc/generalstats.php

Ouch.... Hibs have a higher number of active characters than Midgard, and Midgard now has the lowest active population......in over three years I don't believe I've seen this before ..... Midgard used to be 4-8% above Hib....

Why is this happening?

I'd guess Mid is no longer FoTM and Hib is?

depends on point of view kind of, piece of crap pve puts me down from rolling or toaing any alt and i tend to get bored of every class kinda fast etc etc.

ps.: if duskwave is correct brocandile mid status is funkeh

alb/hib/mid

I have a reason... Warlocks are very easy to play and people don't like the easy game (I think). And im sure isnt the only reason.

I'd guess its because the big amount of "casual" keepraiders of Midgard gets tired of getting shot by scouts, or shroomed to death at every attempt they make to take a keep. And that rerolling isn't really an option if you don't have insane amount of plats and patience. You also need alot of luck to get enough people to do some masterlevel encounters. Imagine trying to do masterlevels without your precious shrooms or theurgist pets. But instead of giving us what we really needed, a petspammer they gave us what we really didn't need(another i-win class)

no, most established rvr guilds could toa a few new chars for their group pretty fast so mid pve had no influance on the decision to reroll pryd. Mid pve is really only a problem for people without a good guild or access to a ml9 summ sm + fopbot.

Yes i would love to see mid getting something close to overpowered to what hib and alb got, as it is now we are totally underdogs in both pve and rvr. If there is no mid-boost incoming soon all mids will probably cancel their subscription due to being killed just cause mythic are too ignorant to give us a good class

Mids just got bored playing one button classes.
Being l33t but knowing you yourself suck does annoy most Mids.
Even one button pressing drones have feelings you know!
Regards, Glottis :fluffle:

Damn, i hope your joking :eek7: How about the 40% of the mids, those being fotm (whorelocks), rolled something usefull, and started making some more groups, instead of running around solo, insta killing stuff?
Suppose Glottis might be right tho.. Who knows.
Does warlocks have feelings? Descuss!

Midgard RvR TL: We need petspam to make Midgard PvE easier.
Random Mythic Dev: I think you guys need a Thane 2.0
Midgard RvR TL: No we dont!
Random Mythic Dev: Yes you do....

yep as mythic thinks giving retard OP classes (which prolly get nerfed to pieces) will attract more players... kinda bad logic, MAYBE it worked when daoc didnt have competition (si_savage) + pet spam was not needed nor used over the board that much (no toa), but nowdays its just plain stupid. Doing any sort of high lvl pve is a pain in the ass, with player numbers decreasing it will just get worse... alot worse. Wondering when will Mythic see the light and give what mid players want.

In my opinion they should give bone dancers the ability to spam summon those skeleton archer/warriors on PvE targets. No change to rvr as mid groups are fine as is.

EDIT: Or you could remove the healer pets form the game but increase the number of other followers they can have. say 5-6 instead this would move them closer to a pet spam class.

animists ruining tower fights as much was warlock, no.. much worse. Lets put 100 shrooms here and if someone peeps out, he is dead.. ok? If mids dont have enough area dmg casters in a towerfight, they are screwed. That make's tower fights boring vs hibs, + they..
