-Boost Experience rate by maybe 5X at least. There is no reason it should EVER take longer then maybe two weeks to max a character if you are playing every day. The exp rate on this server is horrendous and is certainly not "classic" by any means. This needs to be addressed immediately or I see a mass amount of players leaving the server VERY soon.

-Starter gear: Some of the best eqemu servers out there offer starting gear on venders for free. Nobody in their right mind wants to spend HOURS at camps. The best set of gear is probably something custom made with a decent click buffs on most (if not all) pieces of the gear.

-Mercenaries: Probably the greatest thing everquest ever invented. This is almost a necessity on this server now the way I see it. I've spent upwards of an hour in the past just trying to get a damn group. Mercenaries solve this problem as well as adding a whole new level of complexity to soloing.

-PoK books: Travel in this game is tedious and everyone knows it. PoK books were added to solve this problem. Just because something is "classic" doesnt necessarily mean we need to take it at face value.

-Boxing: So many people want to box and you are driving droves of players away from the server with this rediculous rule. Everquest has always been about boxing and that is how sony was able to keep so many subscriptions for so long. Taking away boxing is pretty much limiting your servers lifespan. Imagine if sony outlawed boxing how many people would quit?
Wtf

Kind of sounds like P99 isn't the place for you, newfish.

In response to the OP: I would like to see some of the luclin in zones implemented in a way other than "cats on the moon." maybe add a new continent or something. I really enjoyed ssra temple. Also enjoyed other people playing beastlords. I would also like to see the LOY expac. Frogs were fun to play. Amphibians are very under represented on this server.

i love you.

IMO, I think there should be a lore option where you permanently devote yourself to the gods and your character is sent to the Plane of Tranquility to do PoP raids, but can never go back to norrath. The only way you could see your friends would be in PoH and PoS (and maybe other planes with custom portals), but all PoP items would be no-drop. Maybe after you finish the Plane of Time, you can choose to go back to norrath with all your PoP gear, but can't touch any mobs over level 50 and can never return to the planes permanently thereafter. Also, no AAs and level-cap stays at 60 (no item reqs)... just to be a dick.

It'd give high levels something to do but at a large price and doesn't affect the people that want to play classic.

Not sure if serious or troll. But if any of those are implemented, the server would tank.

Edit: The forums do have an ignore feature. It is quite handy.

If anything, I would like 'über' bosses like Diablo II and Diablo III. Fun.

If, after Velious, you continue to play P99 and the devs decide to do custom content, what would like to see feature-wise and content-wise?
