While I do like your ideas, they are not without their issues, just as the system we use now is not without it's issues.

I think a largely overlooked aspect of the overall problem is simply that this is a Classic EQ Experience, but it is not Classic EQ. It is 100% impossible to bring back Classic EQ in it's pure, difficult, and punishing perfection because we KNOW everything about this game this time around. We no longer have to discover all those invisible floors, or what this quest mob means when he says "Amulet of my Ancestors." We have the knowledge, or at least the resources to find it, and that will prevent Project1999 from truly re-creating our former experience.

Overall, we play on this server because of the experience we get. Will it ever be exactly like Classic EQ? No, because the player base is just too well informed. We know exactly what to do and how to do it, without that long process of discovery. P99 may not be a perfect replica of the image in our minds, but fuck there was a lot of work put into it - from devs to players alike - and will always demand some tweaking for the population it currently hosts.



tl;dr Great ideas. But absolute Classic limitations will not always apply to a server with such a large and well informed player base.
