I don't think the Nexus itself is needed though (seeing as how Luclin is not something I want); would just prefer the NPC Wizard at each key spire to translocate the player directly to another key spire. If those Wizards appeared at the spires every 30 minutes and then left after 5 minutes, that would be okay.
In defense of Nexus, they did needed some FREE way of getting between Luclin and Norath. Otherwise why you not paying to use ship from Freeport to BB?
Also with lev 30 req, Vah Shir would be forced to stay on Luclin for 30 levels - imagine not being able to go from Freeport to BB till lev 30.
After all Luclin is just another continent.

The people who invented the first space ships were brilliant. That doesn't mean anybody should actually want to use them 200 years later. Ideas are limited by means of execution. Everquest has amazing ideas that need to be completely reworked in their execution, in order for classic Everquest as it was envisioned to actually exist and continue to be relevant as things have evolved.

Every part of Luclin was bad beyond any hope of saving, OP.

Now that's not true. About 1/4 of the zones have very interesting design, and Ssra easily one of the best designed raid zones ever.
Luclin was mostly a failure as a whole, but there are nice individual elements here and there.

Luclin isn’t that bad. Just a bunch of nostalgia tards in here.

Keying was absolutely awful. Emp Ssra bottleneck was the epitome to stupidity in an MMO. The quality of gear in VT versus anything else in Luclin was brain-dead, not to mention an unitemized/poorly itemized Ssra Temple for weeks, which meant you still needed to fart around in NToV while VT was down. So you did Emp->NToV->VT ad nasueam. Awful to be the top and even worse to be stuck behind them.

Bazaar was boring but probably "healthy" in the long term, along with a tradeskill zone nextdoor (I forget the name). Shared bank slots and AAs were the best things to come out of Luclin.

I don't understand the hate for Luclin... I love cats, I love the shared bank, and I love how AA's really added some flavor to all of the classes.

I'm pretty sure the hatred comes from all of these very valid points that this thread is filled with.
