Hardness debate is skewed here. The scripts for wow raids and bosses were much more complex then eq classic for mostly technical limitation reasons. But let's compare the difficulty of leveling to max level combined withthe pain of wiping on a raid in the first year of both games. Oh noes you lost a few gold and have to spend 15 min getting back and buffing up for the next attempt at whatever wow raid. Or, oh noes you opened that one door in ToV and killed everyone, costing the guild about 2 hours of travel/prep time and a few kpp for coffins peridots etc etc. Now that the technology is equal eq raids are fucking stupid hard the best guilds out there I think havent beaten the newest expantion yet. Anyone ever beat OMM from god expac? I think that was around the time of those wow raids you mentioned and that shit was redunky hard.
