Temple of Droga.Where are the best places to grind 65 at launch? It’s been a really long time since I’ve played PoP.

100% agree with this. Luckily my life seems to always end up becoming super busy when Velious launches so I never play it anymore. Kunark always seems to get the short end of the stick. Ya the raids are minimal but the leveling zones are fun and always get skipped over.For me the expansion that has lost the most shine is Velious. It has not held up.
Instead of focusing on AoW every week we got to the point of splitting the raid to be able to run multiple Tormax for more T1 loot. Cheese, and I agree completely about Velious. I don't think we ever cleared ntov in under 3.5 hours. I basically only played to raid or farm gems with friends.The only problem with Classic is Sky. It's just shitty for a lot of classes. Either you can't land shit, you're taking DTs or you're constantly rebuffing people that took DTs. Waiting on Keeper blows and the mega Spiroc Lord and Sister farms are so fucking lame but it's how you get the gear so its what you do.

I thought Droga/Nurga revamps don't happen until LDoN?Temple of Droga.
Hot take: Velious was always a shitty expansion. It had HORRIBLE dungeons for leveling that are out in bumbfuck nowhere and had shitty mechanics like massive amounts of water(SG), traps (DoN), "events" (ToFS), etc. (Velk's only gets love now because they made massive changes to its exp mod). Tons of faction grinding/gem farming, long, boring ass raids (PoGrowth trash clearing sure was a hoot). It just never got noticed because most "normies" were still fucking about in Classic or Kunark zones. People thought it was "omg awesome", because they saw folks like Triton, FoH, etc. bringing back hauls of loot and assumed it must be amazing. Repeated TLPs show what a dogshit expansion that was - not surprisingly, it had a LOT of apprentice level designers on it, just like Luclin did.For me the expansion that has lost the most shine is Velious. It has not held up.
Have a bit of dilemma hopefully you TLP vets can help with. As a casual player/raider, I've been able to stay on top of content pretty easily on Mischief. I can typically raid once, maybe twice a week. The guild I'm in raids 4 days a week (sometimes 5 if they decided to add an extra day) but has no minimum req for earning/spending dkp. The schedule hasn't really been an issue so far, but now that I'm looking at the guild's schedule for PoP flagging, I'm worried I'll fall behind. They are hoping to setup an arrangement with other guilds for back flagging, or recommend sharing account info, neither of which gives me a great deal of comfort. I'm wondering whether I should look for a guild that has a more casual schedule. I really don't want to be on the sidelines while ele gods are being pummeled.

I'm serious. No one goes there, and the mobs are easy, and plentiful.lol troll
I've always really enjoyed classic as well. While I didn't like the idea of instancing at first, it's a nice QoL since it's not like a group gets their own private instance with all the camps, I personally really enjoy splitting camps and seeing groups roll through dungeons. That is one thing I have never enjoyed about WoW or other MMO's is the closed, instanced dungeons. Dead horse I know, but it takes a large part of the MMO experience when I can just sit in one place, interact with a piece of the UI (Dungeon Finder), and spam a private zone over and over again. I might as well play Diablo.....Classic is awesome, I can’t understand the general dislike for it.

I've resigned myself into not attempting to be the first 65 on the server. I have up around 2700 pieces of planar armor but I'd have to miss some flagging to actually turn all that shit in. Still gonna time myself when I do turn it in, though!
Wednesday 5pm est next week.When does PoP go live?
I haven't been logging in lately to Everquest. Not sure why really. Just been burned out a bit I guess. That and all of my MMO friends all have been playing New World.
