Umm, for us lazies, what’s the top 3 things we miss out on for none of this achievement bullshit?

It's a good time and the best way to do a nostalgia run through the old zones.
The rewards are account based and can be claimed on other servers.
Mild tempered community for an EQ TLP ... generally positive.

High priority:
-Yelinak kill at 50:
Western Wastes port. Gonna be hugely useful for batphoning or just getting to raids in general. If people only do one thing, do this, unless you're not planning on doing Velious in-era or something.

Mid priority:
-Cazic kill at 40
and Lethar kill at 65: Infinite stat food and drink that give like 100 HEM and some AC. These don't work until level 50 though. If they worked at level 1, this would go in highest priority. Still a useful bump.
-Deathknell event 1 at 60: Gives a mount that can presumably be claimed once Luclin is out. Probably a solid mount, only have it at mid because it might only be a priority at all to people who don't already have any claimable mounts.
-LDON Curse Reborn at 55: Summonable port magus that can evac an entire group, provided the summoner takes the port last. Might only work with "Nedaria". This isn't High because as far as I know, the magus can't zone, so it poofs with the one use, and again the summoner has to stick around until everyone else takes the port. Also there's like a 20 hour reuse time. A group having a couple of these might spare them from a wipe or two while leveling.

Low priority and/or useless:
-Naggy/Vox/Phinigel at 40 gives a title and not a particularly interesting one.
-Sol Ro at 55 gives a better title but it's whatever. It makes your name really long and small. Which is kind of cool.
-Mayong's Mistresses at 65 give a bag that looks good until you realize it's only for collectibles, which don't even exist until like the level 90 or 95 expansion. And even then, you generally eat them as you get them, and a bag that only holds that one type of item is beyond useless.

Good but purely optional and cosmetic:
-Trak/Sev/Gore/Talen at 50 gives a raptor illusion that you can put on a pet.
-Emperor Ssra at 55 also gives a pet illusion, this time a shissar. Not sure if you can also put it on yourself or what.

Things for way later that will someday be high priority:
-Cragbeast Queen at 55, Vishimtar at 60, and Pallorax at 75 give raid currency that is actually hugely useful but can't be claimed until a server hits live. Still, get all 3 of these and you'd be able to get like 9 top-tier pieces of equipment from the latest expansion the minute the server reaches live. Which is actually humongous. All 3 of these can be small-manned (5-8 people) at these levels if you know what you're doing.
-Meldrath at 70 and the first Rain of Fear raid at 90 give teleport items that will be hugely useful in their eras (especially ROF, as the final zone there is a chore and a half to get to normally), so it'd be very much worth it for guilds to go get these before those expansions drop. As a bonus, people can get some practice with the raids in question (especially Meldrath's Mansion) before having to do them for real on Teek.

It's pretty cool that Teek has this synergy with Vaniki, as someone who actually thought Vaniki had a lot of value as a server.

Hope they toss out multiple week bans day one for anyone using SEQ or MQ. Would help with the queue and send a message that cheating will finally be cracked down on.

Vaniki illusion is most important since Ogre is god race frontal stun immunity. Free shrink better than DE mask.

You can get this just by hitting 60 on that server too, don't have to do raid achievement. And getting to 60 is a joke.

This is why I didn't list it. It's something you basically get automatically while doing the others. It's also purely cosmetic.
