i've been playing EQ for about a year & 1/2. Currently the population is dwindling, seems Sony has blinders on without having the 'Force'. Not being a power gamer but a casual player, as old as this item is, i would still beam a smile if my Monk had it. Perhaps Sony could revitalize ToVeeshan &/or retune the loots. Something to entice players to return there. The AC is still more than decent upon this for today. Make the Xave's have 175 HPs now, add 150 END to it, maybe a regeneration amount, & a Faerune effect possibly. As Sony's EQ growing majority of power gamers & true veterans remain the core population, the casual &/or true new players will be weeded out since Sony seems to not care nor cater to their concerns. Sony needs to open the game up, allow progression, allow fun, achieving goals & give a reason to want to play EQ as a game & not as work. But as is i still want the Xave's hehe too bad i wont ever see let alone acquire.
