While I have a necro and tank that are of decent level, my main was a bard that I got up to whatever the max was at that time (65, I think), all on The Rathe.


What guild? I was in Avengers in Faith and then Evolution of Faith after the merger with Evolutia Draconis.

Can you just buy whatever classes/races you want? The freebies aren't overly appealing, but I wouldn't mind doing a beastlord again.

I hope, there is no slower on the f2p list.

I don't know how robust the mercenaries system is, but you could possibly get a slower/haster there.

Any current players who could give feedback on specific questions about the current state of the game?

The only Mercs are tank, healer, and caster or melee dps. Mercs make the game insanely easy into the 60's.

I am going to throw this out there. If for some reason the AlKabor server is saved(not looking good but there is reasons for hope) I suggest we go to that one. It is the best server since it is stuck in time and frozen at PoP. The main guild called Temetry just got into the Plane of time this week and the community there is second to none.

Yes you will need an intel based Mac but it is well worth picking up a cheap one on Craigslist if you can.

Can't do F2P on a progression server if that's what that one is.

It's the Mac server, due to be shut down.

What it means is that if you want a true classic everquest experience you can play on the Mac server.

It is capped at Planes of Power and will never move past. Only one guild is in the plane of time and they just got there 2 weeks ago.

It is EQ hard if you want to think of it that way. No hotzones, no froglocks, no new bazaar, no guild halls etc. If you have an intel based mac there is no reason you shouldn't be playing EQ anywhere else.

And it is free to play, all races, no coin limit, no class limitations, no marketplace ads, nothing, nada.
Just free as in Free Beer free.
