The only thing ever backing your opinions is "Its classic".
That's actually a pretty solid opinion though. Suppose we decide that 5 charges of instant complete heal is pretty ridiculously overpowered (it is). Well, what about:
  • Hybrid XP penalties
  • Donals BP
  • Puppet strings
  • WC caps
  • Ridiculously low mana cost of enchanter spells
  • Shamans getting a damage clicky while Wizards don't
  • Iksar Planar Armor
  • Dumb cockblocking key quests
  • The Velious-tuned Magician epic pet roflstomping Kunark
  • So many classes being worthless on the raid scene
  • Not even close to enough content for the number of high-level players we have.

etc etc. If I were running the server, I would try and make a few of these changes. Then I'd add a few high-level zones from modern xpacs (like Gates of Discord) after retuning their difficulty and items to match Kunark. I'd borrow scripts from later xpacs to add to the boss strategy a little, like making them spawn guardians or have their abilities change or otherwise make raiding a little bit more challenging than 'put on resist gear and attack'.

But the sign on the door says Classic Everquest, not LoraenQuest or AlartiQuest or (god forbid) TigglesQuest [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
