I wish there was an xp slider that controlled the rate at which you get xp. Leveling is ridiculously fast now. Took my 40 ranger to CoM, left after an hour or so at 43 and I wasn't even trying. You just outlevel zones long before you settle into them. You can avoid unsing the overpowered defiant armor that drops randomly from mobs, but you can't avoid the fast xp. Not unless you kill youself and lose xp... which I have done on more than one occasion.

Its funny. I was killing beetles at lvl 3 back in the day. I'm still killing beetles at 75, only this time they have a ton of hp and hit harder than old world dragons. But as much as I rag on EQ, its still the only MMO I've tried that I've tended to go back to. None of the others have that same 'stickiness'.
Are most of the classic zones still the same? At what point can you go back to old raid zones such as ToV and just clean house solo?
