Wow JUST wow Look how lazy you ppl are becoming and want to make this game gayer and gayer let me call the waaaaaaambulance. because u dont want to run woes but yet still want the gear get rid of the progression you all say. So if were are gonna do this get rid of the raid marks then and allow people who cant raid buy raid gear with regular marks. lets nerf all classes but wizards cause we all know their babies and want easy mode. When i got this game and started it 5 years ago i was amazed on how the quest took into play and how hard it was to make it anywhere giving me the challenge climb to the top. over the years it just became free food to the poor, oh lets just give this to them because people dont want to do it anymore Seriously people including the EQ2 staff STOP turning this game into crap. just to add something to if you have new players who can run shard zones cause their in mastercrafted gear and you all are running adepts or apprenctices GET A CLUE.
