They're nerfing the damage of the lowest DPS tanks in the game by minimum 7%, and probably more like 10% or more. Who says my survivability is increased by that much? I can already hold aggro. They can keep this change.

DAoC had at least one expansion after EA took over, and DAoC had a *much* smaller pop than this game does. IIRC UO has gotten expansions since EA started running it ,and again, has a much smaller pop.

TBH I'm surprised the game didn't launch with cosmetic and service based MT's. This is unfortunately going to be the norm. As long as it's not P2W and I can ignore the cash shop, I don't really care.

I lost 5 out of 8 of my names and both legacies. I picked slight variations and/or added an apostrophy somewhere. I also had to delete 4 characters...It's not that big of a deal. If losing the name of a character in a video game rates as a tragedy in your life, you are very fortunate.

Sigh. As I suspected, both my servers are origin servers and both are going to the same destination. Looks like I get to delete 4 characters.

Unless new levels doesn't mean more talent tree points, I'm more worried about how they're going to nerf every body once you can hit a new tier or two in your non-main talent tree. Current gear becoming obsolete is only a matter of time in a gear based game like this.

Yeah...I'd like an answer to this one. I don't think I've ever seen anyone say tank trees were OP'd.

IMO mods should really start handing out infractions for all these duplicate QQ posts.

I would guess two reasons... One, they limit transfers to current paying customers. Once you have multiple origin servers going to one destination, this allows people that are current subscribers a better shot of keeping names and legacy names. This also gives people that are no longer subbing but are thinking about coming back extra incentive to come back. Two, server mergers ALWAYS are bad PR. They can make people happy that want off dead servers without having to make that press release about closing 50+ servers. I would guess they won't actually merge servers for another 6 months.

Before 1.2, this would have made me rage and possibly ragequit, because currently, I have Pubs on one server and Imps on another. Since we can now mail stuff to opposing faction alts on the same server, and with transfers and the inevitable mergers, I will probably have all my characters on the same server anyway very soon.

I have Pubs on Shien and Imps on Rubat Crystal. I hope one of them ends up being a destination so I don't lose both my legacies and most of my names.

I'm actually glad neither of my servers are in the first round...not particularly feeling like a lab rat today. I'll gladly wait until the next round when hopefully all or at least most of the kinks are ironed out. Pretty soon they'll probably be going multiple origins into one destination. Wouldn't be suprised if by the time this is over, we go from 120ish NA servers to about 20. As for why they aren't just doing mergers now and getting it over with...I'm sure that isn't far off, but IMO it's better to transfer active players now, and then just merge every one else later.

I don't expect a time table because things can change, BUT...I would like a list of planned origin-destination servers so I can plan ahead.
