This list is fascinating. I have played for about two weeks and have a lv 9 monk. Frankly, the most annoying thing about the game is all the auctioning going on. I appreciate the need for the economy, but I wonder why all the high level characters spend so much time hanging around the tunnel in East |

I'm lv 49(still) and have only seen one(maybe two) great 2h weapons(that means: so great that I regreted not havin' workin' on my 2hs skill)

Whoever droped the rating on your post really should keep an open mind. You brought up a very valid point and an overall good question.
One of the major developments of EQ was a vast market that has a life all its own. Since you are level 9, you may not have been to Greater Faydwer or more comm |

A nice interview. As someone who came late to EQ (just started last March), it's nice to get some info as to what the designer's view of the game's evolution is. I enjoy the hell out of this game - my 65 or so days played in 9.5 months is a reflection of that - and that doesn't even figure in my t |

Besides, if your Dark Elf, you'd wanna go to Katta. Very dark, morbid, gothic place... you'd love it!

New Bard Instruments at vendor? |

So the bard vendor in Katta Castellum has a "combine" version of each of the standard bard instruments. They are pricey (17PP for the combine hand drum, for example) but no mention on their description what the advantage may be. Anyone know anything about these? |

Now I'm at lvl 56 and 43 and when I look back; I'm glad for those experiences. They benifited my newbie char and taught me lessons. Taught me copper is heavy and doing something trivial over and |

In retrospect:\
Here is the reason these "problems" exist
Vendors give 2pp for items that are incredibly rare. Of course you could always go sit in NFP for 3 days trying to sell it.
Its only natural for people to want to advance their character, the enormous XP penalties for death an |

After reading this I'm not wondering why they've got you as a Guru... It's just too true.
On the farming, I would say thought that it's mild... from what I've seen, from times to time the Higher level ones get into farming stuff thought from what I've seen, in two years of playing nearly every ti |

I about crapped myself when he mentioned the fact that he had heard of people finishing books when medding. Ha!! I read all nine of the Robert Jordan books while medding. Woot. I have been off the game since late August. But reading this may have lit the EQ fire again. See all you Prexus maniacs |

Most likely they've come up with a system that goes through the item database and figures out what items are appropriate for what levels. Then it tags them as such. |

Although im not 100% certain, I have fought in the area before. I pretty sure that the tag means that if you are under lvl50 you cannot equip it. I believe this because the stats are close to planar in a zone that has no level requirement so it makes sense on a balancing issue. |

I have played EQ for qa while now and find it to be not a bad first try. That being said, it is my opinion that the software quality control, customer relations and customer service is the worst crap I've ever seen. These opinions are based on personal experiences in the game, not hearsay.
