PoP hypothetical

[Talgurin]

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.
