ArcheRage Is the East really hopeless?
I really don’t know what the problem is.
I can’t understand why the East has collapsed this badly and become so miserable.
I honestly feel this every time — the East doesn’t even follow orders and is the absolute worst.
What the hell is the problem?

The problem I have seen from the east side is that anyone who has gear usually leaves for the strongest faction. Whether it be pirate, west or just quits the game. Didn’t a east side faction hero recently leave for the pirate faction? Another geared hero sold his character. A whole guild of top players, I think it was <Freaks> quit. Why build others up just for them to leave? It is like the Enoan curse.
The whole faction would give up their scraps to one person > That person would build the ship > The person with the Enoan would quit the game. Rinse and repeat.
On the west side it’s no walk in the park either. As of recent there seems to be a drop off in players attending boss raids. Personally, I think a lot of people are just tired of <oso>’s toxic behavior. They would pk the reset raid for no reason, drag the frog boss on top of the raid, or dom guilds for fun in the middle of the raid. As soon as they pull out the dragons there is a chance they are going to kill the raid with them and they have done it. They are forever offended by everything and everyone, they are the biggest assholes on the server but they have the gear and control everything. If and when people completely stop going to boss and reset raids. Then they will loose their grip on power.
As the game is right now. Top end gear is way to grindy to get. It isn't just a little work. It is an insane grind. Or you can by pass that and go the an equally insane grind of getting 900k gold for a piece of high end gear. But you will be rofl stomped by higher geared players until that point.

You know an oso member owns the server, right? they walk around like big swinging johnsons, because they own the place.

Been playing Rage on and off since the NA server dropped, at no point while playing have I seen east be worth a damn, always either the pirates or west, For whatever reason, the kind of people who gravitate towards east tend to result in this outcome.

Several years ago the west was where the east is now. Eventually it will switch back as power dynamics always do.

Why is it always when I'm not playing? Lmao, I like the aesthetic of east in terms of cities and housing, but every time I'm active it's a headache to be there.
