I recently stopped playing AoC....too much drama on the Wiccana server just turned me off of it....went back to WoW, and quickly got bored, after getting my guy from 67 to 70....all the armor that i got before i quit playing is worthless now, and i dont feel like spending another eternity on the battlegrounds just to get a new set of armor that will be outdated in 3 months.

I decided to give EQ2 another shot. Logged on and I am playing on Antonia B. server, I made a darkelf necromancer, decided to try out the new Neriak newb zone and joined a RP guild that is dark elf only. Man I am having a blast, and I was up until 3am....just questing and rping....it brought me back to my good old EQ1 days.

So, if you are wondering, take another look at EQ2. I am glad I did. If you are into evil RP, fun stuff, no bullshit drama, send Kalauz a tell, i m playing on Antonia B.

Also the community there is outstanding. Mature and very helpful.

Good luck!

Aye i hear you i came back after taking some time off from the game and also just having a blast again.

Plus you are right the community is in fine shape over there too.

EQ2 is a very on-again off-again game for me but it's the ONLY game out of all the games I've tried that I keep coming back to time after time.

It's my favorite and I've been playing since the game launch.

Glad you gave it another try!

I am also thinking to give EQ2 another try....

I liked it alot but if i recal well i am lvl 50 will it take alot of time to reach the max lvl?

Thank you in advance for your reply...

Kind Regards,

Yes it will take a fair amount of time to level to 80.  When I came back I was lvl 46.  I'm lvl 72 now.  You can see how much time I have logged in xfire.  Now I'm not power leveling I'm crafting, harvesting, and generally wandering exploring and learning the game.  I've also gone from lvl 22 or so in crafting to lvl 56 and I leveled a necro from lvl 1 to 38 or so....  I created a sarnak character in kunark when it came that I leveled to 12 also :)

For the most part I'm having a lot of fun.  I was going around with more experienced people and I missed out on some of the lore and stuff for areas as they run me around and tell me what to do.  I'd recommend taking your time I'm doing that now and it is a lot better to learn the areas and learn the world rather then having someone lead you everywhere.  I like the quests in kunark they are creative and give good lore.

Thank you for your reply....

Kind Regrads,

dont forget

since last months update, they have accelerated the levelling pace

Game update 49: dramatic leveling speed increase for 20-70

www.mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/202369

Whereas it currently takes on average around 164 hours for a player to advance from 20 to 70,

it will soon only take around 100 hours.

 you can also level using collections, they give amazing exp, and most of them arent that expensive to do. I took my guy from 20 to 50 in about 4 hours, with about 30 plat.

I just resubbed myself after 3 years....how does a level 20 get that much plat???

iam resubbing also, after watch a video re: guild halls i forgot how great the game was...i'll be back this weekend :)

You were playing a necromancer, of course you are having a good time :). Any other class other than necro/magician and wizard you will be pulling your hair out by 50 :D.
