Not bad. I think I personally would have built a page that walks the player through from setting up p1999 through picking a class through character creation through their first few levels before I worried about a FAQ though.

I mean, someone who is using your site without THOROUGHLY reading the wiki and/or forums is going to make a troll sk and not understand why they are leveling SOO slowly, is going to think a wizard is better for an xp group than a ranger, is going to get lost trying to find his guild, is going to quit the game when he dies to the first newbie mob he attacks on his [insert non-necro class here], is going to freak out when he can't afford to buy all of his level 1 spells right away let alone all of his level 4/5 spells if he gets that far, is going to be frustrated when his cleric/tank/rogue who didn't start in FP or Gfay can't find a single other person to group with, the list goes on.

Cool idea, I just would be executed it differently if your goal is to ease true noobies to EQ (but who seem not to be noobies to more modern MMOs) into the game.

I actually installed it for them, and am helping everyone in vent so it's really just a quick reference. Not perfect by any means. One of my friends started a barbarian and that starting area is just ridiculous for people used to WoW/etc. He was going to quit for good and I told him to roll anything else. He said it's 100x better starting in Freeport. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
