Oh and I completely forgot focus effects being added in Luclin. And item linking. Both great additions to the game. Focus effects made gearing as a caster far more fun and interactive. Once Velious drops, capping main stats becomes a lot easier and it becomes a game of HP/Mana/Resists after that for most people. Adding in focus effects to make your primary role more effective makes the game far more fun to play as a caster. It gave life to many items that were previously terrible when they retroactively added Focii to prior expansion stuff too.
Luclin was one of the best expansions EQ had as far as additions to the game.
The thing I find funny is, the same players who decry the entire expansion in threads like these are the exact same ones who go into bug threads I make about removing item linking, or removing access to multiple chat bars (another Luclin addition), or removing percentages in UIs (another Luclin addition) and QQ about me wanting to remove everything that's fun about the game.
Either love classic for all its inherent tedious and unwieldiness (I'm making this a word if it isn't already). Or love Luclin for all those features you would complain about being removed if the client allows for it some day down the line.
