I DL'd the game myself but upon loading I noticed half my gear was gone and I was in a zone i never heard of. I wandered a bit loaded some spells and got bored. I wanted to visit nostalgic places with all my old obsolete gear on. But I dunno it wasn't the same sense because the game is so huge and theres so few playing.
Come check out the Phinigel server. It just opened a few weeks ago and is only EQ Classic. Kunark launches in March on the server and then Velious will unlock in June with new expansions every 12 weeks being unlocked. Its a great way to relive the original EQ experience if you are feeling nostalgic. Plus, we have created a Pantheon guild on the server for folks from this forum. The guild is called Pantheon's Rise and we have about 15 people, with a fair mix of people in 20-40 range. There's another thread in the off-topic forum here with more information on it.
Just so you know, there is a new EQ server that is only 3 weeks old (Phinny), that a good many of the Pantheon forum members here, have started new characters on, over the past few weeks. It is known as a "Progression Server" where the game starts out like EQ did back in 1999, & then progresses through Kunark, Velious, etc..
Come on over to Phinny we will give you a Guild invite... https://www.pantheonmmo.com/content/forums/topic/2458/pantheons-rise-everquest-tlp-guild

It is SO tempting, but I know I'd just be completely frustrated with it knowing what I had once accomplished but now no longer have.
Playing on Xegony/Druzzil Ro...taking my time, my oldest character (same age as EQ) was level 60 for 13 years hehehe. She's now almost level 64. No I don't want to power level, and I'm in the Lions of the Heart guild. Friendly, casual guild, suits me fine. Taking time to smell the roses, and try to tackle some of the massive amounts of achieves I've missed out on over the years. Yeah nostalgia ran away with me too. :)
