It really depends on how they implement the mechanics of controlling three classes at the same time (i.e. if you are a Warrior/Cleric/Enchanter, can you auto-attack at the same time you're casting a CH and controlling your pet? If you're a Bard, can you keep songs going while casting other spells and meleeing?). It will also matter a great deal what class features from beyond the Classic timeline of P1999 are included. AAs alone are completely game-changing, for example, and hugely affect class capabilities.
So basically, unless you have inside info, I think it's too early to tell. I just hope the game maintains more of a slower pace. I never played THJ, but from the gameplay videos I've seen it looks straight up wacky to me. Basically just running around facerolling everything. You might as well just play an ARPG if you're into that sort of thing, IMO.
For me, at least, the appeal of EQ Legends is less about theorycrafting some OP build to faceroll the game with, and more about making the game more solo and casual friendly, and essentially streamlining the process of 3-boxing by combining all three classes into the same character.
