Long time reader first time poster. I've been on EQ hiatus for about a year and a half now and I'm thinking about starting back up. I'm trying to find out what has changed and where I should look to try and catch up. I'll ultimately end up 2 box'g a currently 34 Mage and 53 BL and wanted to take them on the fastest path possible to 70. I'll also be playing with a 65 cleric available if that could help. Thanks!
