Gonna have to agree on this point. As another level capped Warden my advise is to roll a new toon. This class has some vary interesting traits, and they take some getting used to. In the right hands, Wardens are capable of almost anything.
Again though, as it was pointed out earlier this is NOT WOW. I have played both and left WOW in disgust as a toon on WOW takes about 5 min to master and then you are just left with gear. Here you will have spell choices, aa lines dependent on gear choices, and more then a little bit of player savvy. While you may survive on this inherited toon, you will never excel. Given that leveling to a low number such as 45 is pretty quick, I see no reason not to reroll. As that was your friend's highest toon I doubt he had much of value on it anyways.
And yes, EQ hates ebayers and inherited toons. Roll your own and enjoy the game as it was meant to be enjoyed. Besides, the rest of us would not have so many alts if we also did not enjoy the lower content as well.
