I think an event server is probably off the table since they specifically said “two TLPs” which makes me think they’re envisioning two permanent servers.
Under the logic that Phinny is what they view as an idealized TLP (because it made them the most money), I expect they will be starting with that baseline—normal trade rules, classic start, AoC, Truebox.
I think they’ll view differing XP and expansion unlock rates as what separates hardcore/casual. So my expectations would be:
Hardcore (Misery Server): Phinny/Coirnav XP rates, fast unlocks (2 months or less)
Casual (Boring Server): Agnarr XP and 3 month unlocks.
I will be very surprised if Daybreak is willing to actually be creative and get outside of their current TLP paradigm.
