<p>While fun, challanging and rewarding these "Public Quests" have created issues for me while playing Eq2 primarly with forcing me down to the lowest graphic settings and still causing "Low Memory" errors with a game crash.</p><p>What is going on?</p><p>Id have to say the issues are both Client related with Handling <strong>VERY </strong>large number of people in one location and community driven based on the setup / reward system of the Public Quests.  When a PQ is called everyone flocks to the same instance to get the best possible reward since the loot scales up based on difficulty / number of people.  If you are in a raid then you get legendary gear, anything lower then you only get heroic or solo rewards.  Well this is causing issues when you have 2-3 raids in a location all fighting at the same time. </p><p>Currently the PQs are nearly unplayable on my WindowsXP - EQ2 Drive.   I would not even try to play this on Windows7 considering it still causes my system to reboot.</p>
