Default Old School EQ considering returning

Hey All.

I played back in the early 2000's. Started just prior to Velious being released and played for a while.

I leveled my Half elf Ranger (obviously not a maxer) to 60 and even got a fair amount of AA points on him. Got one Epic but never the other. That still bothers me. I switched it up a bit and twinked out some lower level toons (chanter-monk-cleric) to the 45-50 range. Mostly because the Raid game for a Ranger was always a hard one. Finally gave my account away to a friend that I met in game.

Anyway..

I always liked the ranger and Druid class. Always felt the Druid was a good friend making class ("Got SOW" and Port?) and one that was easy to get groups as an alt healer but I never played one.

My son and I play a lot of console games together but he really wants to see EQ and I just discovered p1999. I will probably solo more than play with him but the Druid is certainly a good duo companion.

Seeing as I joined the game when there were already level 50s and people that hit the gas on Velious to 60 before I was even 25 it does not bother me to do the low level grind.

Any advice on server to join? I think it will be fun again.

Man I remember how pissed I was the first time Tovax Vmar killed me in Qeynos hills when I was a badass level 5. I never forgot him and used to go back there at level 60 just to shoot him in the face with an arrow!
