Don't be so dramatic. You aren't fighting with "banded and fine steel" all the way to 50... and if you are, then you are leveling too damn fast. Go do some quests, go farm a camp for a couple better pieces of gear. Stop and enjoy the journey instead of burning through to end game in nothing but cloth. Or don't.
But yes, this is what I'm looking for. Hardcore, elitist, painful. I want to go back to the days where people actually knew how to play their class... because every skill was needed, every spell was considered and sometimes used. Dungeons were actually tough, "MAGIC" gear actually meant something and in PVP people had to decide whether or not to wear stat gear or resist gear, because it was one or the other.
