Been gone almost 2 years. Have wizard in 50s. Is it worth returning? Is end game scene still shit with velious? PleSE Inform.

Azure Guard, omni and Europa are getting epics and ST keys. BDA is getting VP. Casuals have a seat at the table.

But, I mean, who are you and why did you leave? What do you like/dislike. How can we possibly make an informed response to that question?

Sure try red plz

I'm nobody. I left because I didn't have time to poopsock and saw no pathway towards endgame content. If you say casuals now have a seat at the table then may be worth considering coming back since I loved classic EQ. Thanks for your input.

EDIT: have asshats awakened the sleeper yet?

Ofc the endgame is shit. There's no instances. It's always gonna be a war over the elf pixels.

If your only goal is end game raiding without pooping in a sock, don't come back. If you're willing to poop in that sock, there's plenty of that to be had.

If you like logging in to play with friends and see yourself raiding casually, the game is very much alive.

P99 is plenty of fun either casually or hardcore. If you want to be a casual but want hardcore pixels, you're going to be disappointed.

The problem with the raid scene is that the barriers to entry are high. The people who lead FA/Awakened have the min/max tactics down to such a science that its not even difficult for them anymore. The "norm" is to pull entire zones and single tag Bosses out while someone trains the trash away and then gets CoTHed or some other de-aggro non sense.

I play very casually (not on bat phone, only play during prime time due to work and family, only have 1 level 60) but I have killed mountains of dragons now with <Asgard> and there are lots of friendly guilds on the server who would let you kill with them.

I recommend Asgard though - can't speak highly enough about how much these guys have helped me over the last 1.5 years and continue to put up with my nonsense.
