Default PoP hypothetical

Hi guys,

Here's food for thought. What would classic EQ be like if PoP were implemented, minus Luciin?

Many agree PoP was a great expansion. But Luciin sucked.

This would mean... continued EC / player-to-player trading system, plus all the adventuring in the high-planes.

The only thing that PoP did which was detrimental was the books, which effectively ended the days of traveling to get to your location.

So what if the books were deactivated, minus one or two just to access PoK?

And, would it be possible to hunt in PoP... without Luclin gear? In addition, the Luclin AA system would have to be implemented. There's no way PoP bosses could be taken down without AA'd characters (but were AAs really so bad?)

Just wanted to bring this up because it might be something for devs to think about way, way in the future, when Velious is maxed out by everyone.

Hell no, pop was where the game became the raid grind...no more pick ups and "hey lets rock this thing real quick". It was content blocked by flagging and sitting LFG in tranq all day.

If PoP were ever to happen (which I hope it never will), I'd pray that A) it would be locked for everyone under 45 and B) only a wizard could port you there.

Haha. Well if it's any consolation I like the idea (obviously: http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=11879 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]).



If the server was going to go semi-custom a year after Velious is released then this would be my ideal scenario.

Many might also agree that Luclin was a great expansion and PoP sucked.

Many might agree that GoD was a great... okay... so no one would agree to that.

Totally agree, flagging had to be the worst thing that happened to EQ... I think it lost more people after PoP than any other expansion.

I like a challenge, and travelling should take time...and lets be honest it gives wizards something to do while they struggle to get a group [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
