What would you change about classic mechanics?

Most of the stuff I wanted to change got added in Luclin.

Class balance. Druids get mini-CHeal. Rangers become viable DPS. Casters stop sucking due to a combination of resists being lowered, AAs, and horses.
Gear mattering for non-warriors through vengeance, widespread FT, and focus effects.
Something to do at level cap (AAs).
Group and Raid buffing.
Bazaar (although, I didn't know I wanted this until they did it).

This guy gets it.

Bazaar I can take or leave. Everything else is spot on.

mounts would be nice, also rangers doing more dps even if only with their bows or something.

Most of what vanilla WoW did encompasses basically everything EQ lacked. More diverse skillsets, reduction of weird forms of kiting in favor of proper character builds/use of abilities, self-gate w/ cooldown for all characters, ways to deal with contested spawns, etc...

If you played Vanilla WoW, the abilities, class types, and even raids (MC rings a bell) bore a distinct resemblance to EQ without falling into many of its pits.

+1 or vanilla EQ2 (up to 2nd expansion when they fucked up everything)

specifically:
3 primary tanks instead of 1 super tank and 2 sub-par tanks
3 primary healer classes instead of 1 super healer and 2 sub-par healers

Add soulbinders.

Remove rangers. They are a waste of mana.

Tone down rangers, they are far too overpowered.

So...what you are saying is we need Lucin and PoP releases?

Minus the zones, sure. Or my idea for PoP, at 60 you can do a quest to help the gods and get sent to PoT, but you can't ever return to norrath. You can visit old players in PoF, PoS, PoG, PoM, PoH, but you can't trade with them.

No XP penalties (race or class).
No hell levels and everything that comes with them.
