I think boxing severely devalues the individual character.

While I'll certaintly agree it takes a whole new kind of skill to box 3 toons using legit means... Once everyone is doing it (and they will if you let them) the solo character won't be able to keep up and will be forced to box or stay inferior. That's not EQ to me.
I wish the dudes over at takp just restricted the boxes to traders or xfer mules or w/e. That doesn't seem as game breaking as a player who boxes through PoP with 2 chanters and a cleric. Best of luck to anyone who wants to try it though

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. In my experience playing for 3 years on PEQ 2-boxing (where practically everyone else boxed an entire group) I managed to get the best geared of one class and top five of the other on the whole server without much effort at all. Less characters means you get to focus the gear you get, since in a group you roll per person not per character.
::edit:: note that this was several years before P99 so PEQ wasn't a joke of a server back then.
