So... How classic do you want it?

[Jibartik]

I can tell you this much, of the few memories I have of live EQ.. I distinctly remember being in the middle room of the 3 in solB at level 34 on my paladin, while my best friend who was a wizard tells the grou that he dinged by typing

:kicks his spell book into the lava

Of all the things to remember, I don't remember a valuable stat, or mechanic, instead I remember that 1 emote.

Well, it goes to show you how important level 35 was back then, here's to it being important again!

Guys, book until level 35 IS NO BIG DEAL. This is how we all leveled back then and it was allright.

It took us ages to hit 35 back then, too. Here it's a matter of a few days.

A few days? No. It still takes a month. And adding this only adds more needless death. There is literally NO benefit to this at all. Why go to the trouble of adding another hurdle when the game is plenty hard enough?

And I don't know about you, but I grew up in the past 20 years and got a ton of responsibility. I don't have 10 hours a day to play EQ any more. Last thing I want is to go afk for 30 seconds for a phone call and lose experience because I can't see the HG coming at me.

OP is feeling out the sentiment prior to making a change because Green launch can't be a test run like pet windows and secondary ability bar removal was.

OP advertised Green launch, apparently on Facebook ads as well as Kotaku. Advertisement implies a desire to grow player base. Paying to grow playerbase implies a desire to grow donation revenue. Nostalgia is powering the MMO market right now and OP wants to benefit from this trend. Asking the question here to gauge response is a reasonable course of action although I don't think forum users reflect the potential playerbase growth; merely the current revenue base. OP seems to want to reduce reliance on the current revenue base. I would guess spellbook meditate will not win playerbase growth but it's not my project. I'll be interested to find out.

Do you wear your tin foil hat everyday or just on the weekends?

That is the feature I want the most. Real darkness is missing in every mmo these days and it would make a whole bunch of spells (and races) more useful.
