    MvP means PVE (player versus environment) ?
    I personally won't say that the game is dead at all.
    But when did you stop playing ?There is interesting new content in the New Horizons update and some things to do PVE wise.

    Honestly, 1-10 isn't really lively. Sometimes, you're fortunate, and its lively, and sometimes you aren't. This is largely because the rebirth factor of PWI has a lot of level 100+ toons circling back around to low levels. Regardless of whether its lively, or not, you'll level past there pretty quickly. Once you get to level 20, you'll get to go to Archosaur City...where you'll see EVERYONE and their dog.

    Note: Dreamweaver is pretty active too, but for choosing a pve server, I STRONGLY advise you to choose a server that is closest to you. (East Coast, West Coast, EU server.) That will allow you to better do things in your own timezone, and better ping.

    Need to see the cleric guide for questions, comments, or concerns? Just copy and paste the link.

    If you have love for you life then no, don't come back at all.

    - The game faces more disbalances than ever, skills nearly impossible to attain, classes with broken OP skills and on.
    - Forming BH squad seems way harder than back in time.
    - New PvE content is daily, means you do once and go back to boredom as always.
    - You need to go back to lv 1, twice... To access new features.
    - There is an in-game built-in bot system now.
    - Nirvana is dead.
    - Prices are outrageous.

    Honestly if you don't have any friends IRL or in-game to play with, choose another game to play.

    -The game still faces only 1 major imbalance. That between the hardcore gamer, cashshopper and the casual gamer. For PvE this is not so much an issue.
    -Forming BH squads usually takes me 10 seconds. On a bad day 1 minute.
    -I agree the daily stuff is a bit tedious and makes the game feel more boring and less free. I wonder what is the reason for all this dayly limitation.
    -Fortunately, you get 4x exp and get to use your equipment without level requirement after going back to level 1 so its a matter of days till you are 100 again.
    -Who cares there is an ingame bot system. Its good for the poor player. The rich dont even bother with it really since DQ is removed.
    -Yep nirvana is dead. Other instances are added or came back to live.
    -Prices are just numbers that keep growing by inflation both when you sell and when you buy. There will always be people complaining that they are outragious.

    If you have love for you life then no, don't come back at all.

    Honestly if you don't have any friends IRL or in-game to play with, choose another game to play.
    Indeed, before you know it, you are playing every waking hour. So it might not be the best thing for your life to play pwi.

    Not sure about this; I don't think poor players can afford to run bot armies, and there are definitely some of those in there from what I hear. I'd class that as anyone running more than 3 bots at a time, and yes, I know that's against tos, but really, since when do they do anything about people abusing multi-clienting rules?

    Afford ? It makes money right ?
    Just not enough for everyone to arsed to do it. Yay, 2million a night... Thats worth 15 minutes of TT farming. For the poor people, even though their toon might only make 1m a night, that 1m might matter a bit more.

    I dont know how many people have "bot armies". I know there were a few before the system was implemented. I am thinking it may be still the same few.... But im not sure about it either though. I just know that when it was new and DQ still functional, i would bot every night as did many in my faction. Now none of us do it anymore.

    If you were one of the people that left during the TB expansion because of the constant +10 APS squads that managed to seep it's way into many facets of the game, you'll be pleased to know that nirvana is dead and anyone can get g15 gear now. You can even be a casual player and PVP and earn money in nation wars.

    For PVE, there has been a lot of content added. There are ways to increase stats, new instances to farm, people actually do lunar and warsong now. There is whole new PVE zones. There is a lot to do in PVE and you should always have something to do. Two new classes since the TB expansion has been added, both of which are pretty fun.

    It's also much easier to gear up than before, so you don't have to spend a lot of cash or know the right people just to get into a squad anymore to do something as simple as farm your own gear.

    There are much less people in the low level things now though, so you're going to be playing by yourself for quite a while. Try to find a faction with at least a small group of people your level you can play with, otherwise, just keep doing your quests and focus on leveling up so you can play with others.

    1-100 is dead.

    It's mostly FCC, with a few BH's in the mix. You'll be hard pressed to find anyone doing quests anymore.
