No one to play with in T1

I love this game to death, been playing it way back when it was retail but its starting to feel less and less alive. Can hardly find anyone to do lair bosses with or even T1 rvr. Is it a specific reason as to why its so stagnated at the moment?

the dwarf and elf zones are awful - too spread out and complicated for the tools you have in t1. it should just be eternal festenplaz again

+1

T1 can be quite dead. I'd recommend doing scenarios until you hit T2+ and keeping an eye out for any activity.

But yeah I've played RoR since 2015 (jesus), have almost all classes at rank 20+ and i think i only did lairs... twice?

It’s the holidays :-) MMOs are always lower population this time of year :-)

T1 is actually fairly populated, I think some comments are overstating how it actually looks like.

There are 10v10 battles at least on a daily basis and you can easily find groups for lairs, even during non-peak hours, though might require more presistance, most people give up fast.

Also the LARGE MAJORITY of the server is for some reason very passive and does not want to make groups / warbands, which is why it might seem empty but any time I make a T1 Warband it fills up within an hour to decent numbers

T1 is a horrible experience. Maybe it's fun for new players, but for those who already have chars on 40 and renown 80, it's a pain!
They should double the xp and rr made in t1. Or give bolster for those 12+ on t2 and beyond lakes.

Just got out of t1 and can tell i had a nice fun run in it.
Was harder than before to find people for lairs, had to PM just random people i saw in warcamps to come kill bosses whit me.
tier1 and lfg chats didint bring any people.
Killed all lairs a few times in few days that i was in t1

I like T1 (when the ques are popping) We see about 100 people in prime time. Wish we had the option to stay in T1.

Simpler gameplay, different meta. I usually stay naked, almost like an entirely different game...

Sadly this is what you have to do, try to invite people via social window or nearby players as hardly anyone reads chat.
One factor might have been loot rolls and flooded chat windows of new players, who didn't manage and sort their chat/tabs.
