I know, I did some research about it and eventually made my choice based on aesthetic preference, personal likes and in the former case nostalgia (My original EQ character was a DE Warrior that I primarily solo'd on because I hate my life, and a later revisit saw him transformed to an SK).
I really like the SK class, XP penalty aside, and given my expected level of play and lack of drive to hit cap as soon as possible, I think I can bear the slower progression. I hate the concept of an XP penalty based on race or class, but that is what it is and I wouldn't be here if I wasn't prepared for hard mode! XD
