Unless Dev stops people from getting asagos/patreons and using the gold bank, money will flood Korvara second one regardless. That's a non-issue, at the very least. Money's only good for very little, and you get basically infinite the second you get 20 iron ore and a handful of wood.

With equipment and levels and such, we can't really say; People showing up with LEs isn't a problem if it keeps being relatively equal to levelling on the mainland, because someone could get a maxed book in two days of the thing coming out. Dev's adding a bunch of new mechanics and stuff anyway for it, so it's impossible to really talk about with current information.

Ultimately, if I'm still playing by the time Korvara comes out, I'm definitely making a character for it and already part of a group. I also do think Korvara should stay locked off for a long time. Like, six months, minimum. Even if I'm worried about potential hits to the playerbase, I genuinely really like the idea.
