Wasn't KEI a SoL boss drop? It may have been patched into the spells just before SoL was released, but I'm pretty sure nobody had it scribed.

The only thing I remember about KEI was the clicky ornate pants from PoP, they made me a lot of money in PoK

Luclin destroyed the game.

It introduced a powerlevel zone, you all know it - PC broke the game and let people go from 14-30 in a matter of hours. Why would we want the Bazaar that let people afk sell their wares when we have a really successfull EC Tunnel that is a STAPLE to classic EQ.

Anything that does away with real human interaction such as EC Tunnel or makes the game inherently easier such as PC RUINS the game.

Plenty of ways even now to power level people from 14-30. It wasn't even such a big deal since when AAs came out there was a lot more progression than just hitting level 60.

EC Tunnel is not real human interaction. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It baffles me there are people who prefer the EC Tunnel over the Bazaar, other for the sake of keeping the server "classic". [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I personally liked Luclin but that's because I actually quit just before Velious came out and came back just before PoP.

If there ever was progression beyond Velious it would be neat to see:
- Nexus nerfed with only access to Luclin areas to keep druids and wizards in business.
- Bazaar eliminated.
- PC brought into real world ZEM territories.

Pretty sure those things and cats on the moon were the only things that really killed immersion. Wouldn't mind seeing zones like UP and Scarlet Desert again.

Oh we do this so often. Oh well! If we're talking altered Luclin...

I'd say keep the bazaar zone, and keep the zone weight-immune and let it be the new EC, absolutely no trader mode.

The Nexus spires transportation wasn't that convenient, could even increase the interval to avoid replacing ports; I never felt like druids/wizards were replaced until PoK was released.

Not sure why anyone cares about PC, really not that different from upper guk. I'm sure any non-classic content added would get tuned to Nilbog's satisfaction so I wouldn't worry about shit like that.

I think that, aside from the mudflation of AAs and the Bazaar, Luclin was just fine. As far as I can remember there was more justification for cats on the moon after Velious than there was for lizardmen in Kunark after original launch. I'm sure it would be a lot of work but it'd be really fun to force Vah Shits to use classic Kerran model!

My solution to AAs if ever added is that they'd get harder and harder to earn as you got more of them, forcing tradeoffs. It was just too easy to grind the fuck out of them and get all the damn things.

I actually made tons of money porting on live hanging out in the Nexus and Bazaar. They provided a hub for people, many of which who wanted speedier transit or locations different than what the Nexus ports provided.

I also never felt like traders stopped people from auctioning or haggling.

Seriously. Nexus added boats to and from NK, Tox, G Fay, GD and DL (15 minute interval ports). Yes, it made travel slightly easier, but it in no way made druid/wiz porting obsolete. That was PoK.

As nice as it was to have KEI, I think that spell was a bad idea. Nobody seemed to need enchanters in their group after that spell became commonplace.

Edit: Elder Thought Horror? I think that was what dropped it.
