If you really want that nostalgic feel, level a melee alt. Necros really don't need gear to excel at leveling. When i leveled my monk to 60 it definitely got my nostalgic blood flowing :-p.

Don't think I ever have. I usually exp in the same spots with my alts as I do my main, and I would rather get through it quicker the second time around. Unfortunately(?) when I started 55 days ago here, within an hour of creating my account I stumbled across someone doing a giveaway to a group of people and I won 2k plat! Was able to buy some hp rings and a few other low end items. No classic experience for me =(

The first 12 to 30 levels depending on class can be incredibly boring your second/third times around. Once you start to get your complete toolset leveling becomes much more interesting.

*raises his hand...
All nine of my characters are not twinked. Yes, I have had people give me "gifts" over the past year. Or when a guild like Azure Guard had their random give-away, I was fortunate to have some high rolls. Usually I will work on trade skills in tailoring to stock my characters in either leather hides or raw silks. Or with the case of my melee characters, investigate what vendors have been sold - especially when my warrior bought a whole set of banded armor over time! But if being a twink can be translated into buying a better weapon in the tunnel after saving and selling everything other people let rot on corpses, then I guess I must put my hand down. | ||

I leveled here on my necro without handouts. The first handout I took was in my 30s at the giant fort in FM. It's rough. You have no money for spells, bags and you sometimes think to yourself do I need that spell or can I go fill my bags with food so I can regen?
Then there's ec. You haggle for everything because you can't afford it. A lvl 34 pet that you need? Good luck getting that before 39 unless you pay more than what you can afford. I was buying old vendor bought spells into my 50s because I could only afford the bare minimum. Casters might get lucky that they're not as gear dependant but they make up for it by needing to spend everything they make on spells.

Twinking is classic.
Why on Earth would I impose artificial restrictions on my gameplay?

My druid started out as an alt! He was in patchwork/leather til his forties/early fifties because I gave him absolutely nothing and didn't want to tunnelquest. I'm sure most of my friends remember me asking at around 50-52ish if having 145 wis at that level was a bit low.
I do give spare junky equipment to my alts just because I randomly acquire so much of it (which I have no idea how that happens considering what I do 99% of the time), but most of the gear on Tadhg was earned. I just recently gave away my old Springwood Club that I got from CoM after many a gory battle. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Good times eta: I've also been having fun on a custom progression server the last couple of days called Nagafen's Lair. About as far from a classic server as you can get but has been scratching that EQ itch without having to invest hours in p99. More info
