Once we hit T4 we're pretty much locked into seeing the same 9 zones day in and day out. Many players power level through T2/3, and no one can remember the last time they saw a fight in T1 Elf/Ork. I think we lose a lot of potential players who reach T2/3 and simply uninstall because of the inactivity.
If at all possible, if there were to be announced 1 day every couple weeks an incentive which would provide a RP boost comparable to what one would recieve in fighting in T4 for the same amount of time played, to debolster and fight in T1 for 24 hours, for example, I think it would provide a nice and simple change of scenery, include the lower level people in multi-warband scale RVR fights and be flat out entertaining to fight against debolstered high-renown and well known players in the server.
Something as simple as a 200% RP bonus for any kills within the t# lake for 24 hours plus a kill quest providing a small carrot.

Wasn't there just another thread on this recently? I don't think we got an answer though. I like this idea. I stayed in T2 until r25 for lack of T3 activity. I just recently jumped up to T4 by doing solo PQs and never set foot in a T3 ORVR. Sucks that my renown suffered because of it, but it's better than waiting for T3 action. This would at least get some action in those lower zones. I'm an old player so I know what to look forward to. Anyone that's new to the game may see the lack of activity and leave.

Seeing a zerg of debolstered level 40 players might discourage new players and have an opposite effect. I think that the charm of lower tiers is lower prevalence of organised teams and min/maxing players, in comparison to T4, where the waters are infested with such sharks.
I do like the idea of incentivising debolstering to lower tiers a bit more. Not to the point where it would be more profitable for people to fight in lower tiers instead of T4 though, since that might bring the whole zerg to lower tiers which might have an adverse effect.
You're on to something here.

Some random events that had a R40 bolster in a different random zone in whatever tier would be epic. Lets go fight in marshes with the entire server.
Debolster is not my favorite. If i wanted to play as a T2 character, I'd make an alt and not PL... I like the idea though.
In general this game has so many miles of unused land mass.

Lower tier debolstering needs INSTRUCTION & ORGANISATION.
The answer is simple: Debolster Guilds.
T1 is T1 but T2 & T3 should be played as one thing, that needs specific instruction and organisation.
...
Sod it, look out for a topic dealing with this idea on my signature.

This sounds promising. Debolster would need some work done so that you didn't need to respec and regear every time you zoned.

Yeah.
I'm talking about clear & simple instruction on how to respec and regear every time you change tier so i don't know about that.
