tl;dr
The patch itself is great, it has interesting features, cant' dispute it's so much better than Varka/Ketra.
I don't want to think there is any healthy gamer who does not want a pvp server over a pve one.
So in that regard, the moves you made (Baium pvp zone, T-rex message w/o possible Gate Chant, PR to beach) are actually on point.
There are so many farmers on this server that end-game content HAS to be revolved around pvp.
Randoms requiring things to be so ez, as if they don't have ways to farm/grow, is the bad mentality that we don't need.
Cheers.
