Yeah... enough is enough. Believe me, I was a pretty big fan of EQ2 at one time and it some how just keeps getting worse.

while I agree with you both, I'd still like an impression of what current content is like.

Think you'd be better off with the official boards. This game is basically dead when it comes to these boards. Think the last remaining people playing gave up a year ago.

Some of us are on TLE, but that's dwindling down too. Race server is totally dead though

As for the new expansions, they've managed to make mob mitigation buggy for certain people. Some people kill stuff in seconds, others spend like 5 minutes per mob, noone's figured it out yet LOL

hah. Must be why the eq2players census code no longer works. They dont want people knowing how low populations actually are.

Yeah , I left after short time in Race to Trak server launch.

But I would agree about the pop drop, I am not sure anyone left on RR plays at a serious level.

I had a great time for the first month or two on the pvp prog servers. Think I was like second or third 50 Illy on the server? No lifed it hard and had a good time. Unfortunately game is pretty bad these days and I was terrible at pvp.

I actually enjoy the first couple months of TLE. If the mob can be more difficult and the drop are more balanced, It would be prefect.

Yeah on TLE there's no sense of accomplishment / advancement. Treasured drops are still usually better than a bunch of raid loot, AAs are too easy to cap out on (capped out well before level cap on Race server). We did kill Trak on TLE, which wasn't easy. So it can be challenging. Silverwing was bugged for a while (would charm MT and reset to 100% health), so that was a raid cockblock until it was fixed the 3rd time :p

Flobee. Played a Q Illy. Rolled with Nizzarr and pals. Had a good month or two. I fizzled out fairly early on though to be honest, was playing hardcore because I was injured and layed out for a little while.

Leveling on TLE pre vit pots was probably the funnest part of it. The race was a lot of fun still pissed two of our DPS in our original 6 went full retard in the middle of the grind when we had like 5 levels on any other group through the mid 30s.
Other thing that sucked was grinding that hard to find out the raid content was pretty much killable by a bunch of level 30s

I gave in and bought a Krono to play again. Gave up after a frustrating week. If you do not have friends to carry you there is no way to catch up gear wise in Altar of Malice and ToT. Especially ToT is a huge show stopper when you zone in with your master crafted gear and the lowest trash mobs feels like a freakin raid boss HP wise. Doesn't help that solo instances are made for wellgeared players with legendary mercenaries.
I really wanted to play again but like stated before, game is dead playerbase wise and no way to solo other than the signature quests

I solo'd from 1 to 100, never grouped once, and only started using a merc at about 98 due to wanting to speed run fabled solo instances, and one of the AoM solo zones kicking my ass repeatedly. I used crafted armor for most of that, and still use crafted weapons. I quit right about when ToT was released, so ToT is unknown to me, but point is that soloing is totally doable upto and including AoM.

I have a feeling DBG is gonna open up another prog server since a lot of stuff got fix/rebalanced from Stormhold

How is this shit not dead yet, there is like two guilds clearing all the content now and its half the difficulty of what it was two years ago.

it's dead. Don't let the twitching fool you. Even my old guild which was the longest existing since launch died a few months ago.
