    I'm thinking of playing EQ2 but want to know what content do you get when you join. If the site tells someplace I haven't found it. I will pay for silver and probably go for gold. If I buy the latest expansion, Chains of Eternity, does that include all previous content and expansions. Does a Gold sub. include everything or do I still need to buy the game and expansions? What do I get when I press the button?

    In the words of the late, great Roseanne Rosanadana, "Nevermind". Read through the thousand other posts on this topic and figured it out.

    Don't buy CoE as a new player. It's worthless until level 85+

    Definitely get silver. You can get by with all content to L90 with that.

    Gold membership removes any restrictions and is worth it if you play regularly. Being able to change the % of xp going to AA abilities is the main thing now.

    Get AoD if you want mercenaries. This can help at any level and allows you to see group zones on your own if you want.
