Oh totally agree, EQ and it's classic timeline are far from perfect. Adding 1 vendor pet per level for mages was probably a good call (And it actually makes the research pets much easier, as you can bypass a lot of the research stages by buying one spell to upgrade to another). Not (release era) classic though.
I'd be really excited for Green 2.0 or even 3.0 be 'Everquest classic fixed' where little niggles and mistakes are removed from day 1. Maybe giving the classes which are strong solo AND group the penalties instead of the way they are currently structured, if not removing penalties entirely.
However, that is not what Green 1.0 is about.
Green 1.0 is experimental archaeology, i.e. digging up artifacts and try recreate the past as it was using the evidence and techniques available.
