Let's say you create a fae and an arasai, neither of whom is a sorceror or druid. To get to the Nek/TS docks, the fae has to run all the way to the BBM docks and wait for the boat, while the arasai can just teleport instantly from the dockside market port building. For the fae to get to KoS, it has to do that first and run across TS/Nek to get to Ant/CL, then more running to get to the spires, whereas the arasai can just run the short distance from Neriak-->DL-->CL-->spires. Likewise, the carpet for Kelethin is way over at the BBM docks, but the Neriak carpet is right at the Fair camp in DL. On the other hand, Kelethin is wide open and easy for enemy citizens to move around anywhere except the royal palace, while Neriak has just one entrance, guarded by 75 epics. I imagine that must be a much greater balance issue on a PvP server. I love Neriak and DL, and having a character live there is looking very practical. I also love Kelethin, but I can't see living there except with my warden. If you gave the Combine spire KoS access and put in a teleporter from Kelethin to the BBM docks, people would still have to wait for the boats, but overall access to the world would be roughly on par with Qeynos, Freeport, and Neriak.
I second this motion. 
soe have made this game even more one sided.i am from a pvp server and these 2 new zones will kill pvp
for 1. the 75 epic times 2 guards
2. the traveling distances
3. even the portaling to safety on the docks
4. the 5 bedroom house that is less than 2 plat and no status cost
now look at kelethin and see where the advantages are all for the bad side,i wouldnt put it passed soe that with the new exspansion it will allso be geared more towards the freeps and neriak
i was told by a gm in game the other night the fae and qeynos are not allied and the arasai and freeport are not allied yet its on the front on the website under town crier that they are infact allied
and i was told by this gm there is no oversight in these areas and are as intended
if soe thinks there is no problem with this u will see pvp servers going pve and u will be seeing more pple leaving due the imbalances soe has in this game
so grimwell since ur community manager i would really like to see ur view on this
and like to see what soe really do think about these imbalances that plague the game
so plz an we get a response or will i just be banned again?
if so i will be putting this thru to brenlo
This is a PvE game that has PvP in it as such, PvP balance should and seems like it will ALWAYS come second to PvE Lore.
