I've been ping-ponging between 3 mmorpgs and always end up back here for the rratonga the frogies and the community. In any case I 've been in the MMORPG world for 6 years now but I deiced to get of me [Removed for Content] and do that PhD I always wanted to do so now I find myself with a lot less time than before. Long story gnome..1)Is there enough to keep a guy (or even a troll swashbuckler) happy endgame with limited playtime.Last time I left  (bout 3 weeks after the Fae invasion) I was sick of running the same dungeons over and over again for those set pieces you were just hoping dropped.. Naturally got bored of running the same dungeons over and over hoping for lucky loot and the bur outsies set in.2) Are there enough things to do with play sessions being 1-2 hours at a time? Can I run a dungeon or quest with only limited time ? (how I miss LDoN..)3) Any super nifty new fun things added to the game to make it even more interesting?Oh well be ye jaded or fanboish I'd love to hear a few opinions.Thanks and cheers

<p>There's been some cool stuff added, that's for sure.  </p><p>The amount of those flying rats seem to have stabilised. <img src="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/images/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" /> </p><p>Those dungeons, now have a smart loot system. So when one of those mobs that may drop one of the class armour peices gets whacked, they check what classes are in the party, and even check if any of those people already have that peice. Much more chance of getting equipped now. </p><p>There's a dressing room to play with. You can CTRL+click on an item and the dressing room pops up, displaying that peice on you. </p><p>Swords of Destiny has been finished. And has proved a most enjoyable quest series so far. You even get a decent reward without having to go on a raid. <img src="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/images/smilies/385970365b8ed7503b4294502a458efa.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" /></p><p>If you haven't done them, the Ivy Shrouded and Snuffing the Fireknight quests have proved good too. <img src="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/images/smilies/e8a506dc4ad763aca51bec4ca7dc8560.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" /></p>

<p>And let's not forget persistent dungeons.  I believe Emerald Halls and Unrest are currently or will soon be this way, and am hoping for more.  Basically if your group/raid doesn't have time to finish the content for the instance, that's okay.  Your progress will be saved, so next time you go into the instance you can pick up where you left off rather than starting from the top again.</p><p>I'm not completely sure how this works, as I've never tried it personally, but as they make more instances this way it'll make those longer zones much more accessible for folks with very little time.</p>
