Is there any benefit to playing on BETA?

Green BETA is EQ as never before experienced - Easy Mode.

The XP boost means you can easily make several levels per day - some even made level 50 in a few days.

The low pop means few places are camped - so if you know a good hunting spot, then it's yours. Important for making cash for spells.

Platinum hasn't been boosted, so players are mostly broke and actually generous with each other with items etc. And buffs too.

I got given an amazing weapon, and gave away some myself.

The BETA community is friendly, generous, and knowledgable.

A short sweet taste of easy EQ.

10x exp is just not why i play eq1, i went to level 8 and stopped because my skills couldnt keep up with my levels so i ended up being too weak to kill a blue, beta feels like a weird custom server thats only good for testing and not enjoying

Playing a warrior on live, I recall how hard it was to maintain skills on different weason types. Your main hand took a while to skill up even. So you are kind of experiencing classic in that regard.

I took to solo yoloing mobs near my bind in a suicide fashion to grind skill ups until i could actually survive a fight with an xp mob again.

To experience both the journey and the struggle play a Ranger. You will try to tank, try to kite, try to heal. Ah yes, the Ranger. You are the only one that gets a battle cry from those around you when you have fallen. Ranger down.

Well yeah. Raids are going to need someone to eat the death touches.
