I'll be after whatever I can get my hands on for the first few levels for sure.
Banded was in at the start, I want to say that the guide I used when I started playing in July of '99 was written by a beta player (he referred to a skill of 80 as "master").

Initial jewelry crafting was bizarre, it was revamped early to the system we use here (without the velious stuff), I think around the same time they added the evade ability for rogues.

Alchemy skill-ups were broken for a long time due to incompetent testing (there is no nicer description, it's not hard to get harsher about people telling you it works as intended when they only test the ability on toons assigned a skill of ~ 100.) It was basicly impossible to skill-up alchemy at first, might still be able to find discussion of it on alt.games.everquest newsgroup if that's archived somewhere.
