The class denpendacy is a great idea, and not having it is a great idea. We all have our own prefferences, but we cant satisfy everyone. I see more advantages to the game with the dependacy on others. Many say it ruins the demand and prices of items on the market. however i see that a bit different myself. I feel that the game will add more competition over the whole tradeskill scheme, that prices will be lowered. Everyone contributes, not just the high lvl people. I just think that people need to pace themselves with all aspects of the game. If you look at WoW for now, there are people damm near maxing out in lvls, if not havnt by now, and they are just blowing through the game play. I think that EQ2 is trying to make this game more replayable than others before. There are many places to lvl up, and lots of lewt to be WON. However, once its grey to you the item doesnt drop, and the only ways to get items are by buying or going back with an alt to get the experience of doing it. I think just like adventuring, people miss so much of the game grinding to lvl up to reach the high end, they miss a lot in the middle. Then they wanna sit back and talk about all the things they wished they could have done, but cant, or the challenge is gone, and the fun is lost. One thing i would advise maybe for the games tradeskills, is a vendor who sells all the components needed,,, but at a higher cost than normal, but low enough for the crafter to make profit off their item. That way we can help stabilze the economy of the game and have a standard to go by. If anyone remebers the economy in eq1 atm, its shattered. It will never recover. I think eq2 is trying to devise a way so that such is not the case. We will see in the future as this pans out. I think that if we are able to stabilze the market, people wont be so stern to buy items and wait for sales on items i would say. They will just buy and move on, and keep the money circulating. If we get a standard moving and established, it will be hard for a select few to corner the market for products and ingrediants. I may seemed to have rambled on, but just a stream of consiounsness post. Thanks and my apologies.
