An Honest Take on EQ Legends after a few days of playing Open Beta

[feniin]

most of the effective combinations essentially have the exact same gameplay loop: tank mob, melee attack, slow, cast DoTs/nukes, heal as needed. It doesn't matter if you do this on a WAR/BRD/CLR, a PAL/MNK/ENC, or a SK/SHM/WIZ. It's the same fucking thing. If you've played one remotely meta trio to 50, you've played them all. The only real fun and challenge to be had is running intentionally underpowered or meme builds and seeing how far you can push them (i.e. bow-only Ranger build, pet-centric builds, builds with zero healing, etc..)

This is every version of EQ. I don't see how you can argue differently. That's what the game is. Now you can do it solo, casually, instead of relying on investing more time than most adults have without having to have 3+ clients running at the same time.
