i think it would kill pve though
most rare arti's get camped like hell, would only be worse really

although i would support it as prydwen needs a bit of RvR infusion.

Dungeons could be instanced to ease load, most new mmorpgs have instanced dungeons.

Of course we would have to choose which of our chars got deleted as well, would still only be able to play one realm.

im pretty sure they could sort some thing out regarding artifects and stuff making it repop quicker maybe more spawn sites and housing well im sure they could sort that easy but imo pry/exc is a gr8 idea

In the reality this would cause more problems than fixing any problems, unecessary expenses and effort from GOA's side for them to even dream about doing it, it would stimulate some players' perverse desire for more rps to farm, but generally I think this is a real joke. Why don't you try to fit 50 people in one telephone booth instead, much more realistic experiment with aproximately the same usefullness as the idea of merging the two servers.

Wouldnt like that, too zergy.

Imagine how emain would look like, or the frontiers.
Then like some say, ToA would be even more frustrating than it is now.

i prefer zerg than empty emain atm , i like the idea but there are some problems :

1. what happens with the people who play both server in same account

2. is not fair the ppl from pryd got the same rps( is more hard to get rps in pryd than in excal , due the population ) and money than in excal ( ratios in trade are 1-2 generally)

3. toa zone will be a bit small for all ..

I'd love it, more people and prolly more randoms etc to farm. Really would boost population, as 1 full server > 2 half full servers imo.

i think it would be good idea, people are worried about Zerg in emain? New Frontiers is out soon and it is a VERY big area, Prydwen doesnt really have enough people for NF atm.

Tbh, excal + prydwen combined still has lower population than avalon some nights, and getting artifacts on avalon was not much harder than on prydwen, dont really think that would be such a problem.

i personaly think it would be a good idea, but GoA would hafto come up with some sort of compensation for the people that has characters on both servers. maybe free character(s) at the same lvl on the new server, and posibly a cash transfer :)

this is only fiction ofc, GoA wouldnt go trough the truble if there is not a reasonable amount of money to be made. (and there is not in this case)

Doubt it would work; and imagine the zerg-fest.. Would be REALLY a zerg.

Aldoran would prolly love it; Grimster, Jox AND Aldoran o_O

They just need to get a few more people onto Prydwen and I'd be perfectly happy. I don't really want to play Excalibur, we might have some dickheads on Prydwen but there's far more over on Excal.

the problem isn´t that there aint enough ppl on Prydwen. Problem is there aren´t enough ppl RvRing.

Of maybe 450 mids online only 20-30 are RvRing

Lets just face it. Prydwen is the PvE server :D

Tbh give DAoC into shops around Europe + maybe some advertisment and problem will be sorted... But I suppose that's too much to want :wij:

a server merge ---

would have its uppsides and downsides but as many have said here not rvr is pants on pryd and i personally fear that NF will kill prydwen.It might be fun and so on in start but after a month or 2 ppl will drop like flies from server some ppl dont like the "keep takes" some do and 1 fgp wars will be alot less in NF cause when keep takes are going on i doubt its just 1 grp takeing a keep its more like 3-4 or..
would be nice though if somehow RVR sides of excal and pryd could be combined l8er on if not even at start off NF

would be nice, because atm population on excalibur is VERY low to what it used to be, so it wouldnt really be that zergy, and there would allways be options to rvr in alternative zones other than emain (aslong as you have ppl playing).. when i last played on pryd it was very dead, when i last played on exc it was very dead aswell..

population will probably go up the 2 first weeks of nf, then drop down, and probably drop even more once ppl get boored of camping keeps, (and wow being released etc)...

nice thing imo would be to merge pyrdwen/exc, do so you can play all realms, remove relics (this way ppl can play all realms on english servers, and you can also easily have "nice rvr". (an example would be if your an alb, and there are 150 albs out, then you DONT want to be rvring if you are fg orientated, because that force will zerg the shit out of everything, but if you have the option to play both hibb and midd too, you could easily help out the other realms, wich could for once turn into even zerg fights)
