Bads thought it was unbalanced, and those who play today remember that most people on pvp servers were really bad. Not every class was meant to kill every class, but everyone well played had an ability to defend against them. A cleric for instance, could just about survive any other caster well played, while against a melee they had trouble. A rogue has a hard time killing a tank, but they rake face on a caster. Each if played well could avoid dying to the classes that had an advantage over them. That is the best you can hope for in an MMO as far as balance.

EQ PvP was FUN.. not the shit fest games like WoW are... omg.. I literally remember dying more my 1st day playing battlegrounds in WoW than I did a lifetime in EQ.. nothing like getting gang banged by a group of 5 fags spamming insta cast spells on you with no ability to escape them...
I think games like WoW are more reflex based because of the additional hot keys and skills, but I always thought of EQ PvP as more of a chess match than a clusterfuck..
Maybe those reviews of EQ PvP are more towards the later EQ like SoL, etc and all those other gay expansions... in EQ you can definitely immediately tell the difference between a good player and a bad one.. in games like WoW, not so much..
