    I have over 22k hours on EQ 1 with 2 accounts. I started back in 2000 Multiboxing with 2 pile of junk computers with dial up. Was the best freaking time of my life. Thanks for this video, i was wondering what the state of EQ 2 was. Subbed. My all time fav is Enchanter + Cleric combo. Can pretty much farm anything.

    Had my fun with EQ2, but I prefer old school eq for gameplay surprisingly, I don't mind having tons of abilities/spells but it gets a bit ridiculous as you level up, the cooldowns are short and you find yourself spamming a million buttons every kill to get maximum potential out of your class, but I'll admit it was fun leveling up the classes and trying different builds with AA's and housing and what not also flying/gliding/jumping mounts are a nice hit of dopamine that EQ1 doesn't provide making the "world" around much more fun to explore and easy to get around

    I greatly appreciate you giving EQ2 some time in the spotlight. It’s not the best, but it has some unique elements that truly sets it apart. The lore in EQ and EQ2 is amazing. The classes in EQ2 especially in the current “end game” have so much more utility than they did before. If you take the time to learn the class and set up proper macros any class can obliterate mobs or tank ;p. Thank you again! Happy hunting!

    As a guardian I got a World Discovery for the master skillbook for the lowest level Hold the Line ability. I was the only Guardian in the game that tested all of the old abilities to look for a glitch. And I found one. I pulled Agro on a world encounter and survived for a full minute with no Healers. This allowed one of the top raid guilds to recover and finish it off after I died. I got a Guild invite

    For what it's worth, every class has access to stealth at level 30 with [Totem of the Jaguar] (a fairly cheap consumable that Woodworkers can make), so for anyone who's considering a class specifically for that just know it's not a huge deal. In a lot of cases, it's actually better for individual group members to stealth themselves so that the entire group isn't revealed when 1 person does something to break stealth.
    It also might be worth mentioning - with regards to the dps meta - that aoe (area of effect) damage is pretty highly valued for heroic content, especially going into EoF. This puts Swashbucklers and damage-speced Shadowknights inline with summoners in the T1 category imo. If you like to top zone-wide parses those are 2 great classes to do that on.

    Although I played EQ2 back in the day, I do not think I would ever go back to it. Vanilla EQ just has more soul. EQ2 they tried too hard to bring QOL from EQ1 but failed. Locked combat, classes in the end are more similar than EQ1. Also items were way more interesting in EQ1 and iconic.

    there are generally 0 berserker spots in a raid. Can't really tank the bosses don't even begin to compare to any dps class. not sure why tank dps came up so much. it's not a matter of importance. you'll use that pally or guardian at end game and that's it outside of group instances.

    great video, helped me a lot, take lots of pictures and time to play with them, you cannot go back and reroll later like in EQ2.
    when it comes to the baby class, you can (not 100% and not always works) solve the smelly nap sack issue by making sure to "burp them" and by that i don't mean the old pat on the back thing, but bouncing helps by moving their guts around a bit, that's almost exclusively the reason "baby bouncers" exist, you can let them bounce themselves but they are kind of terrible at solo content! definetly bring a tank and a healer with you at all times like large pillows (guardians) and thick blankets (berserkers), any healer will do as long as they have a heal over time!

    So I spent most of my time playing as an Inquisitor and I was ok with it's design but I never felt like a player I felt like an object that had the best spells the best armor stats etc etc.This area of design actually went downhill as SOE started cutting costs in design and wanted a lazier approach so they turned all gear into STAM +one stat idea.
    BOSSES ...there is a HUGE massive dependence on gear and spells you can move to having ZERO chance to win the battle if not for your gear.This is a huge fail in rpg's design that never got better it only got worse.
