1.) Changes to stats and AAA descriptions:
- If you take a peak at your alternate advancement points you will notice that some are now very precise and what they will increase and by how much with the next rank of that AAA point. No more guessing : )
- With stats, you can now hover over them and it gives a description of exactly what each stat does, ending a lot of random debate such as whether dex increases your dadge chance or your proc chance or your assassination chance etc.
- If you were gone a long long time, they added a mod 2 stats which can be located in the second tab of your inventory, you'll get a list of the secondary stats.
- some stats such as armor class have been broken into two values, splitting up into the direct mitigation that you can have (damage you absorb), as well as the avoidence (how much damage you avoid), the scope of this is beyond discussion here, so I leave it to you to seek more on the subject.
2.) Advanced Loot System
- a lot to learn on this so I leave this link to further explain https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/advanced-loot-system-guide-walkthrough.240437/
3.) Hyperlinked quest chat:
- helps expedite some of the conversation you have with NPC's
4.) A slew of new races and classes
- If you rolled back in to your character and didn't bother to look at what new characters are available, you may want to take a moment and do so. There have been a lot of the significant patches added.
5.) Epic weapon quests were added for each class, although they may not have power, their click effects can still prove very useful, hence can still be worth obtaining. They also have a 1.5 and 2.0 version added
6.)Mount system added to allow players to travel faster than by foot! Also casters can rest while being able to cast while on mounts.
7.) new character models added: these are optional, so you can pick and choose which models you want to use
8.) you no longer need to be in the bazaar to buy and sell items
9.) AA system allows you to adjust where experience is taken from adjusting character level to gaining AA points

- You can also use items directly from the bags themselves.
36.) Guild Ranks
37.) you can send items to friend over the mail
38.) slayer achievement system giving the bane strike system
