What are some flaws in classic EQ that you actually like?

Corpse death ftw

edit: I only assume this is deemed a 'flaw' by basically every other game spawning you with your shit somewhere safe

I enjoy the class imbalance of classic EQ. Not everyone should be able to solo, just like not everyone should be able to tank a raid mob. As EQ went on, they blurred the lines between the classes and made most unique abilities shared among other classes.

No you can't actually, you still have to put in a considerable amount of work doing weight lifting. Plus steroids create negative side effects.

If you just take the roids you'll get bewbs, and an attitude... lol

Sorry, news says otherwise and I trust the news.

It's hard to know what is considered a flaw.

Many people consider inability of many classes to solo a flaw, I love this feature.
Many consider the difficulty of travel for everyone but druids and wizards a flaw, again I love this. A journey should take time.

In regards to class balance I think it is more balanced than people give it credit for. The most effective soloers are often not the most effective group members or not the most useful on raid mobs. The best group tanks are not the best raid tanks. The best healers sucks at soloing, whereas other healing classes can solo quite well. Even rangers who are the subject of many jokes, can do decent dps(so are always being compared to rogues and monks) get tons of great utility in root, snare, sow, invis, that other melee dps would love to have.

Agreed. In this sense, the game as whole has a good harmony.

How did this become a discussion about how to program class balance?

Shooting an arrow and clicking circlet in between server ticks was gr8.
