It took my ranger 1/6 of the time to get to the level he got to on live. I am not sure why it was so much faster, but I explained it to myself by simply assuming I know more. For example, I used quests I don't think I used back then to make more experience. I didn't know the zones at all back then.
I found myself killing myself to slow it down. Bottom line, I feel that the first 20 levels go too fast for my tastes. I think EQ lost a lot of meaning when it gravitated away from the homecities. I also feel that when zones that're close to my heart become grey/green they also lose a lot of meaning. And when the game world loses meaning, it's like my heart is being ripped from my chest.
I also traveled to freeport and it was a lot faster and easier than I remember.
Again, back then I didn't know the zones at all. I mostly know hte main zones by memory now.
