	quote from Topic: Coming back after 4 years Semi4 posted: Ywain info: Server population was dieing and to help keep server population up Mythic was clustering servers together. As the player population continued to shrink, Mythic needed to continue clustering servers but they had a huge problem, the database of old characters was becoming so huge (on the existing clusters) the database was becoming unmanageable. Because the existing databases were so huge, Mythic could no longer combine the databases, which meant they could not form a new cluster (yet they needed to cluster the final servers together to keep the population up to keep RvR viable). Mythicâ€™s solution, create a new server that everyone, all active players, will transfer to (everyone transfers except Mordred and the Coop). There are 10 Ywain login servers that are just character holding areas. The 10 login servers allow players to transfer up to 100 old characters to the new server, but Ywain 1-10 is only one server. The old servers will be maintained as character holding areas for returning players; so returning players can come back and transfer toons over to Ywain. If you have level 50s on the old Classic server, there is a quest that gives free ML credit before you are allowed to transfer. Mostly it does not matter which Ywain you use, as all Ywains are really just one server, but housing on Ywain 1-3 is very full so if you are thinking of getting a house I would use a different Ywain than 1-3.

	Myself and some friends are also thinking about coming back with a few new players. Was able to find most everything I needed from the links above but I still have a few questions. Do you still have to do the full raids for master levels? I see a lot of mention of ML10 gear such as legs chest cloak and weapons. Is this different than the ml10 items that were available when toa launched? For example my bard's template uses "Astral Leggings of the Leach" that I got from running ML10 somewhere around 8 years ago.

	Welcome back to all of you. ML's can now be purchased with Glass and Bounty Points. While raids can still be done, no one ever bothers because they're purchaseable. Only ML10 is ever done nowadays. as for old astral gear i believe that will update itself when you login
