How come donwhang has incredibly fewer players in it?

[pimpednammer]

i'm quite an old SRO player.
played since 2007, quit, and then came back when the big euro update came in. then i quit again lol..
and now here i am.
well me being lvl 40, I'm finding it it extremely difficult to buy my 4/5/6 degree gears..
i come back and Donwhang (the biggest market for these tiers; well at least back in the day) is like deserted. There's barely any stalls in it anymore, and the stalls there RARELY have anything i need as opposed to about a year ago where there was huge surplus of those tiers and etc.
i mean like seriously.. has everyone on my server leveled up, and there's no more people around my level? (besides gold bots /sigh)
i go to like the popular places where it was common to find a group of legits questing or something and i find no one there. Western China in general is pretty freaking deserted. same with Jangan area.
I heard Hotan became the new hotspot for stalls and marketing but they don't sell the semi-low level tiers..
ehh.. i need help. is there like a new raging hotspot to train for people around lvl 40?

No everyone is just getting plvled past those lvl's so they don't even need those gear. They just hop from there starting outfit into 9d when they stop getting plvled. ^^ Jangan has the most stalls now, atleast in Xian, because all the high lvl's go to the Chi'in Tomb now.

You're looking at almost a dead game, where there are rarely new people coming to it, and the new characters are simply multi-clients of botters who already have capped characters. Another reason as to why you dont see any gear in those degrees is because everyone is powerlevelled and there are no drops for the higher level (capped) players doing the killing therefore no lower degree equipment. Another reason is that everyone just bots and doesnt give a dead.

Long story short, this game is dead 100 real players per server (which are mostly bots anyway) the 3400 others are gold bots.

7d and up you can sometimes find things you need if you look long enough. anything under that you mine as well not try

u shud see Gaia server DW is empty =/

[Blinxx]

haha I know how that feels, Sparta server still has decent amount of people stalling in DW though. Const is dead, Sam is a bit alive ( since i suppose some bots aren't working ). Jangan is still dead since people spawn at DW for repot lol, and Hotan is still the market place for almost everything.


offT: I miss those days though, where DW was a good place to start your knowledge about markets and stalls " what's full blue? " xDD.
