Hello there,
I have started the game on Orien in December. My first character is on 20 now and I am facing a huge problem... This server doesnt seem to have nearly as many players as other servers...wich would be a thing I wouldnt complain about if I would still easily get groups for all the quests there...Due to the lack of players most people only do a few of the "must have farmed that shizzel" quests and for things like Reavers Reach or the Necrop pre/raid or others it is impossible to get parties if youre not in 1 of the 2 "big" guilds of that server.
Another problem with the low population is that people tend to MASSIVELY overprice things on Auction...1 Tome of Legends page 7 million gold? What? 1 Vial of Pure water 150.000 Gold...what???? White Dragon Helm 10 million..huh????? Or a shabby stupid ring with greater false life for 2.5 million gold... 500K-1KK for 1 GH Dragonscale?
Not to forget that there is NONE of the usual items I tend to find on the other servers...wich I checked since I farmed quite some ddo points on all servers...neither party nor AH is that bad on all other servers.
To fix this I ask for a simple thing..I dont even want a merge..why dont you simply "advertise" for new players?...Make a few events for servers with too low population...Drops raised by 2...XP events to stock up on players...this should bring and keep quite a few to us wich we need because right I dont see a too big number of highlevel players on my oh so beloved server and I hope there can be something done about this.
Best regards from a worried and sad carebear,
Shehe~
