Agnarr is pretty fun to fool around on. Ez mode EQ.

Not pay to win though.

To me, pay to win means "you can spend real life money to acquire an ingame advantage over players who do not spend real life money."

By that definition, Agnarr is very pay to win. XP potions, that tinkerer's bag on steroids, buying Kronos with real money and using it as a currency so that you never need to farm your own droppable gear or platinum, etc. The fact that multiboxing is a big advantage even if all you do with it is have a druid to port and PL your new alts or something, but that you have to shell out money for extra computers to do so?

That's pretty pure pay to win.

You can get:

Krono, weapon looks that make thrm magic, xp potions, and bags from the shops.

Those kronos can be sold for ingame currency that needs to be farmed, or items that also need to be farmed.

Pay to win is buying 10,000 platnium, or buying a level 50 toon, or buying armor/weapons.

You can level 1-50 without ever touching the store.

Btw I am level 31x on both my toons and have farmed enough plat to buy a krono and half considerijg it because its a free month of play. (Krono going for 700pp atm).

So yah it's a decent system, but def not pay 2 win persay. Pay to have an easier start for sure if you're willing to splurge the krono but why bother?

I do agree with this, after witnessing Agnarr first hand.

That being said, the server gameplay is so easy and laid back even without such luxuries leveling is a piece of cake.

If someone doesn't want any of the pay to win amenities, they can easily participate, group, level up, etc., and the hindrance is minimal.

Agnarr doesn't offer a classic EQ experience, in fact it offers an EQ game that's much further advanced with many nice QOL details I have to admit that are quite nice and make playing fun.

Some of the benefits of the server or differences though, I am not so fond of.

It's just a change of pace, but really it feels like a totally different game if you compare Agnarr EQ to p99 EQ.

Yah agro is weird. It is fun tho, enjoying it alot.

Getting 2-3 levels a night in a static group and that seems to be fairly consistent as we have progressed.

Buying krono is the exact SAME thing as buying platinum or buying weapons and armor.... the system is obviously pay to win you just don't comprehend what it means.
