Staying focused for 8h in VT was an accomplishment by itself. A wipe had led to calling the raid and another guild would have jumped in to gank Aten.

In my opinion Velious was already flawed by design, as it didn't introduce new levels but solely left us raid encounters for further char enhancement. On the other hand I never understood all the complains about POP books. This was just a minor convenience over calling a druid/wizard in order to get a ride. I rather hated the automated bazaar.

That said, I still enjoyed EQ until Serpent Spine, when we got forced into a total revamped, instance driven and utterly boring group game, as mandatory requirement for raid progression. That was the point when I left for good.
