I also liked the idea someone had of armor sets, when you wear 3/5 you gain +20 atk, etc. Kinda of like Diablo, not game breaking but would feel like progression collecting the set

Cept in pure classicEQ style the stats on the sets would usually be pretty blah overall compared to handpicking selected items for each slot and then the set bonus was always 'good enough' that you get forced into junking the min/max stats you are chasing. Ugh EQ2 sets and their bonuses.

EQ2 didn't have sets and bonuses until around EoF in 2006 I believe. And even then they were so small and not horrendously huge. I stopped playing by 2014 but by then set bonuses stopped being utilized almost entirely.

They did had them before EoC, but EoC is when they were crazy. I remember Emerald Halls were a total frustration in regards to loot, because all gear was 1 class only, and EQ2 had 24 freaken classes. So we are good guild from Qeynos with practically no char from Freeport side, and basically no evils at all, and we get drops for necro, assassin and SK - awesome - 100% loot rot! I stopped playing around that time. (then dumbing down crafting system what was REALLY killed EQ2 for me - I loved it so much)
