You could try p2002, slightly easier due to PoK books and some newer zones (eventually), although it is quite dated in terms of UI and graphics.

Shun this man.

i tried ragefire just becuase i have a all access pass for planetside. It is crap. total crap. For one thing the newer zones are a turn off. and instead of fixing npcs, they just take them out of the game. There are a few in rivervale i know of. I didnt go much further into the server because i was highly disappointed

I also tried Ragefire (still on it atm).

Convinced some old guildmates to try it as I hoped that if they liked it enough they'd eventually join me on P.99.
I must admit, I love the fact we're playing together again as a static group of friends & that there really is little downtime, but I can see the horizon looming already with boredom.
It just isn't a challenge. It's EQ Lite & while that's nice in a sense, if you've only got a few hours here & there, there is no longevity.
I can hold my own, solo against Two Yellow Con's wearing a mix of Leather & Banded wielding a Bronze 2-hander. We all know that Trolls are clearly the master race, but that shouldn't happen.

Hopeful that they see the light also & knock it on the head soon & join me back here.

Wait, who enjoys corpse runs and slow XP? They're both miserable.

No one. Which is why it makes you value not dying much more highly and makes people play better.

In WoW or any modern MMO, dying doesn't mean jack shit.

. . .Why do corpse runs and play through slower exp when I can go on ragefire and have everything easy mode? Overall, I wish I hadn't tried the tlp servers because they have turned me off of eq as a brand.

You realize easy mode is what made the MMO communities in general "toxic and selfish," by encouraging self reliance and instant gratification yes?

Paid for a month of premium to try the server. I cancelled that sub within 30 minutes of trying TLP. Live EQ is just so bad. Just had no magic to it.

Ah well.

30 minutes is quick 8)

I love P99, im a casual player only playing a few hours a month. I tried Ragefire for about 5 min. The nasty immature crap in general chat turned me off so bad I logged off and got back on P99.

The reason I love P99 is because the difficulty and need to group bring the community closer together and keeps them friendly more or less. especially compaired to anything on live. Its all about the people you play with to me and I dont mean just the ones you group with but even the stuff you see in /ooc or general chat and the people you randomly encounter.

I love P99 hopefully one day I will have the time to play regularly again as I did in the "old days" of live

Meh. Don't blame instancing for people's lack of social skills. City of Heroes had at least as good of a community, and it was completely instanced.
