    Even as a veteran player, learning all the new things coming back and organizing my time for the highest priority items can be daunting. I’ve attenpted to make a succinct list. Let me know what I’ve missed and what you would re-order

    ORDER OF TASKS RETURNING TO EQ2
    1 start leveling the merc of your choice (merc levels are time locked)
    2 get to level 100 using expansion claim item, solo timeline, dungeon timeline, or power level in crypt of agony agnostic dungeon
    3 go to plane of magic and get box of gear/divine potency reward from vendor
    4 claim orb of concentrated memories, broker 50 slot commission item, call of the veteran, any mount
    5 choose an ascension trainer and get initial spell and start collecting scrolls every 18 hours
    6 do yun zi quests for adornments, level 5 increase to ascension class of your choice
    7 do weekly quest in sundered frontier to get 5 scrolls

    Wouldn't that be weeklies in Obulus Frontier?

    Great list!

    I’d also work tradeskilling in there somewhere too. The rewards for the PoP crafting timeline are really nice.

    It's actually better to do Pride Pakiat first, because the other factions' quests send you into Pakiat territory frequently, so not having aggro there is nice.

    Do Pakiat first - keeps the epics non-aggro, and as it's the most painful of all of them, gets it done soonest.

    Thank you so much for this list! I've only been gone for two years, but the last time I played was on Stormhold, so my max level characters (95) are way much more behind than two years.
