But SOE screwed up the content part. They basically made what should have been the sequel to Velious, but made it as the sequel to PoP. Almost every zone in LoY was for P99/classic levels (ie. 60 and under). Now true there was MUDflation, so a level 60 in LoY had much better gear than we have, and true the final zone in the expansion was for higher level characters, and would need to be tuned down a little (or converted into more of a raid zone or something) here ... ... but really LoY was way, way closer to classic Everquest than either of the expansions before it. It was set on Norath, filled with classic mobs like ogres and trolls, had mostly classic level ranges, etc. Basically it was just "more old school zones, but pirate themed!" That was exactly what a bunch of 100-AA point-having level 65s from PoP didn't want ... which is why the expansion isn't remembered fondly by most players ... and it's exactly why I'd love to see some version of it here. We could all suffer through skinny pirate troll models (maybe pirate trolls have poor nutrition?) if it meant getting five official (well, semi-official, but customized to P99) classic-ish zones to level in ... right?

Throwing my support behind our citrusian sister. The Vale has a rich history of zealous propagation of hobbit creed and warriors whomst choose to openly worship false deities, should not be barred from integrating their faith with the good work they do.
The prohibition on hobbit rangers and paladins is a gross display of religious bigotry and should not be tolerated! Rogean, kindly correct this iniquity. Many thanks, a hobbit | ||

I do believe everyone's argument over the nexus ruining porting is a dumb argument. And hypocritical.
Nexus only takes you between the main spires nexus - gfay - nk - Tox - DL. You still had to get a wiz or dru port or run your happy little pixel to FP or Qeynos or literally any zone on the mainland outside of NK. I mean who the hell wants to run from NK to FP ?? Druids and wizards were still heavily used for ports during Luclin. Also who the hell wants to take two boat rides at 3am when you finally get a hole group while auctioning in gfay? I can 100% say withour a doubt, none of you want to make that hour or two long run when no porter can be found. Dial a port as a guild is not classic. There was no taxi guild on live and no global chat. Which means if you weren't lucky to find a porter in the zone you're in, you start scouring your friends list. Good luck at 2-4am.... Waiting 15min for a port to nexus and then 15min more to get to one of the 4 spires was merely a consolation prize for those not waiting to boat. | ||

Luclin spires were fine, same sort of "wait for it, oh and then you have to make a long run besides" mechanic as the boats. The rest of Luclin expac mostly sucked tho. | |||
