Edit: the talk about it being a balance against casters. What's the balance for all the über twinked melee running around? I don't think I've had one group without at least one melee char twinked to the 9s. Including 2 epic rogues in their teens. I've nothing against twinking and find it fun myself but don't get the argument about caster balance when rogues can MQ their epic at level one. Seems like a fair compromise.
Getting it right doesn't necessarily have anything to do with balance. Classic EQ was probably one of the most unbalanced top tier MMOs ever made. The comparison of why melee can be twinked to caster spell books just doesn't even make sense to me...they are totally unrelated issues.

If you want to see the natural progression EQ takes when you pursue balance you need look no further than the current live game----which many people (despite what you hear on p99) actually still enjoy.
