A holy paladin's list of pre-raid BIS is made up of cloth mostly (BIS off hand is an offhand instead of a shield for example) that should answer your question.
You can rack up a respectable healing/intellect set while l…

Players can affect the world and even destroy it
It is a great concept for solo games, since you affect the world for yourself. In MMOs it is dangerous since you affect the world for everyone else - current and future.

5. Investors can make more money on safer game choices, which is why we dont see any more big budget games, aside from a few in asia, which fail when they get to the west further proving the investors point.

From someone who started with EQ my advice would just be to wait and try new games that look interesting as they come out.
When I got tired of EQ i played counter-strike and watched the mmo community. Picked up Shadowbane when that came out and ha…

ArcheAge is a nice step in the right direction but with the exception of SWG (which wasn't really a monstrous success but did enjoy some good times) those sandbox MMOs have basically all flopped on their head.

I want shadowbane to relaunch.. massive open world pvp with extreme character customization. Get bored, go massacre a group of low levels or go get some people together to try to grab a rune when it spawns.
I wish FFXIV was more like FFXI.. wo…

I am generally lenient towards games with buggy releases, server crashes etc because of my understanding of how software releases go. I do not expect a perfect product on day one like other people seem to expect.
What I look for more is how the…
EQ 1 was my first mmo and I think my affinity to the game has less to do with nostalgia and more to do with the game play.
What I liked:
* Grouping

I hated that WoW consisted of solo game play from level 1-max the…
Someone else posted something along these lines but I always considered the holy trinity a EQ style mechanic where every group needed tank+healer+cc then fill in the rest with off tank/dps. This trinity was a pain in the a because instead of just n…

I would strongly side with the argument that WoW killed the game. Yea the game was designed to need a smaller player base, but I know that I personally along with everyone I played with quit for wow. Half my SB guild was sitting on vent for wow be…
The only sandbox game i played was shadowbane. Calling Eq, ffxi, wow ect a sandbox is a joke because its all a very set path. Yea you can do some stuff like crafting but your path has a very limited amount of branches. Shadowbane you could go cra…
I completely agree with what was just said. The problem is that there is no benefit from grouping until your max level and need gear that only groups can get. I always felt in Wow that you leveled up and didn't know anyone then at level 60 you had…
They need to make it a new game just because, unless ffxi changed from when i played it, leveling is a huge task and like most MMO's if your competitive it sucks STARTING the game years behind everyone else. I really enjoyed ffxi although I only le…
