Syrtis itensX Population
 

Do you think Syrtis would have this huge amount of ppl if they dont have satargo sword, eve bow, eve hammer, and other's best weapon/amu in the game?

to be honest i dont agree with that. you only discover those things later in the game so it has no effect on your initial realm choice unless you're jumping realms. With that said, id still like to see boss and quest items equally balanced amoungst the three realms.

NGD described the overpopulation problem to be caused by the "Legolas effect" which makes the most sense to me.

Yes, I don't think ppl come to syrtis for drops (maybe some of them).

I think the major attractive thing is the greenish land, there is a topic about this already opened.

Yes. Because my first day on regnum i just clik on the green flag and make a char. I didn't know what a realm was. And if you are a new player you dont know what evendim bow is or that stuff.

with kind regards.

I came in Syrtis because of Satarco sword. Also I have great claymore special with same dmg... Maybe should post pic of it but lazy...

Yes, they have a lot of stuff going for them, the 'Legolas effect', pleasant scenery, the 'good guys' backstory (back when you actually saw the backstory when you started the game), and once you get a little bigger than the other guys, the high population becomes self-sustaining. If you have lots of people telling their friends about the game, those friends are more likely to join your realm, so it just expands from there.

Yes they would, I knew nothing of any of those items when I joined Syrtis, infact most of them didnt even exist back then, yet Syrtis was still the most populated realm.

I guess its the same for most Syrtis players.

Yes it matters, and not a little bit.

A pro player would go from Alsius to Syrtis is he would know(if he wouldnt be loyal to his realm) that syrtis got the most op'ed Weapons, Everybody wants to win I would say give the Hammer to alsius, and a good spear or no even better give the bow to alsius and give the hammer to Ignis.

That would be WAY more fair!

Ummmmh. I agree with you.
with kind regards

I too think that it's the "role of the good" or just the green environment.
(Or maybe the place of the flag when choosing realm [I don't know where the flag now is, but formerly the syrtis flag was the one on the left side, quasi the first flag]

And about that: Evendim is a war zone boss just like Daen Rha and Thorkul. So it doesn't really matter which one of these three(eve, rha, thork) drops these items since everybody can get them.
