Anyways, I'm getting the EQ itch again, and this seems like a good server to hop into! when does it open?

Hey, Eastwood! Thanks!
So that's a really interesting question. The decision to have account based progression really came from the structure of the code used to allow for certain races/classes to become unlocked after X conditions are achieved.
Knowing what we know now, we probably could have made the race/class unlocks account bound and expansion progression character bound but I think there would be a split between those that want to be able to make an alt and not
have to participate in raid kills to enjoy the content they already unlocked and those that would.
That being said, with the gear available from even old world raid targets, veterans will likely continue clearing that content enough to benefit new players that may be stuck.
As for launch...
We launch TOMORROW! WOO!
(November 11, at 6PM EST).
Hope to see you there!
Good question!
