Revamped CT was one of my favorite zones as a shaman. It was a great challenge to go around and solo the zone and kill things that full groups were wiping to. One of my favorite EQ experiences.

Saying that CT revamp items don't match up to Luclin raid gear is a bit silly. It had some of the best droppable items in the game, as well as a bunch of super useful clickies you couldn't get anywhere else. The crafted Tae Ew chain armor became the defacto high end purchasable shaman set.

It reminds me a lot of the Splitpaw revamp that replaced the gnolls with elementals. This came out while The Sleeper and The Combine (2007 progression servers) were in PoP and it was probably the most difficult dungeon available at the time. It was a really intense solo challenge, if you screwed up once you died. It was so fun to get the experience of discovering a dungeon all over again. I was the only person (at least on my server) who had figured out how to solo the place and where the nameds were. It was really satisfying to be way in the back soloing a couple nameds to see a full group of Elemental geared guys zone in and immediately wipe at the entrance.

I got really rich off the CT and Splitpaw revamps, and had a lot of fun at the same time.

oh yeah I forgot about the ae ew chain.

really the only things that seem to come out of there were the ft3 boots, at least on my server, no one did the ring events except after the first time and after a few years a buddy of mine and I started doing gnome escort for the gaunts but they were removed by then.

I guess it had some good stuff in it, just didn't seem like it was worth it to people

Revamped CT drops the best mage item in game for a short time. Well I guess it could be a toss up between EoLS and BoBC

Earring of Living Slime was pretty sweet for mages yea. While root is pretty cool, chain petting can be effectively root.

Unfortunately it felt like you were carrying a table around with you.
