    its insane that LDON has a 3 month timeframe, when it offers no substantial content (yes, theres the odd piece or aug from the raids thats good) over PoP.

    all it does is essentially turn PoP into a 6 month expansion.

    GoD is only a 2 month expansion, and it offers meaningful quests, raid content that is a direct upgrade to PoP, and new AA, all things LDON lack. please make LDON follow the same rules and shorten it to two months

    Better yet make LDoN a core part of the game, not requiring any unlocks.

    The number of sub-65 LDON adventures that get done on any server in the past several years could be counted on one hand I’d guess.

    It would certainly add a new spin on the TLP experience to have the ability to run adventures from 40-50 during Classic when the 5 or so level 45+ camps are claimed and no extra picks are up.

    Do the same with LoY and PoR while you’re at it. Make em base parts of the game and don’t bother with unlocks on them.

    No way! Even 3 months isn't long enough to complete 380 adventures or w/e the number is to max your aug!

    Haha but seriously, this expac should only be an 8 week expac at best. I like the idea of just having it open even earlier.

    Less LDoN is good for the server. On Fippy, LDoN wasn't treated as a standalone expansion with timelocks+voting etc, it automatically unlocked 14 days after RZTW was defeated and the GoD vote was tied to Quarm being defeated. That was way better than what the servers currently have and I can't understand why it ever changed. Switching LDoN to a standalone results in a worse server. Leaving LDoN out of the shortened unlocks when lvl cap doesn't increase also results in a worse server. People make posts complaining about this every year, they're always ignored.

    There's no upside in keeping LDoN 3 months. The people that quit during LDoN and play on whatever new server comes out are going to do it anyway, the people that aren't going to play on the new server either go play something else or just log in to raid and AFK for the rest of the expansion. Just thins out the server.

    The ultimate TLP would put the majority of content that is available in classic zones into classic zones from the start(Kunark, Velious, etc as well). Put in Warrens, Put in Veksar at Kunark, Put in LDoN camps(without Magus)...get Berserkers and Beastlords and Frogloks in there as well, maybe even Halfling Rangers. This game is already NOT p99...we don't need it to be purely like it was in 1999.

    There is so much content that gets completely ignored because it was added years after it would have been useful or added during a period that EQ was growing in population
