Trying to keep my interest in the game alive, how is Velious?

[Hagglebaron]

Velious launch was where I essentially stopped playing during live, for no particular reason. Does it offer attractions that might revitalize one's waning interest in the game? Anything revolutionary?

Or have any of my fellow bluebies tried and liked Red? Maybe that would be sufficient to keep the eq cravings strong

What did you enjoy so much about Kunark? Classic? Knowing where your interest lies will allow me (and others) to tailor my response about the positive aspects of Velious to your tastes.

velious is fun, especially to achieve the ultimate goal to be sleepers keye besides doing ntov raids

red is fun, server currently needs clr,mnk and chanters! if u wana roll solo and gear ur main on your own, start a pet class first.

Velious was by far my favorite era. There is a lot to see, and the zones are just entertaining. Its definitely worth at least exploring.

xp bonus on red makes level 35 in lguk feel like level 10, fun times, people are friendly

I am not sure you could call Velious revolutionary. The Hybrid XP penality will drop not long after it comes out. Thats helps. There are a ton of really great gear on it. But the mobs hit a LOT harder so you need it.

It will help the raid scene some because more High end stuff to kill. I guess it is just about a lot of newer zones and getting better gear. Pretty much what EQ has been about all along.

At least the Good and Evil race thingy won't matter. It will be Factions between Dragons and Giants. Can get ugly at times how long it takes to get good faction.

I am looking forward to it. I thought Velious was a great expansion by Sony.

I liked how on red I saw 2 people in G'fay when I made my new character. Makes for a great MMO experience.

Velious is definitely something worth taking their time on to release correctly. It is the crown jewel of the classic trilogy imo.

It would be best served with an open beta and character copy imo before doing it for real. Further, I think it needs its own forum section allowing for general discussion and bug/inaccuracy reporting.

It will bring in great numbers for sure, Velious is awesome.
