I think they got the progression done fairly well at this point:
- you level and farm drops (btw nice site for "BIS" items for your build: EQ Legends BiS Gear - EQ Legends Tools), you need some pp (spells) and motes to get your "basic" +4 set running
- at 50 (depending on your trio, really) you farm hate/fear/the "bosses" (Yael, Vox, Nagafen, Finigel) and try to maximize some stats/ressists and get some 100-200 AAX going
- after that it's sky/unlocks and +4 variants of the bosses
This is really okay for what you could do with Vanilla I think. Of course the trios vary vastly in power, some can bitchsmack bosses at 40 with 100AAX and LGuk/SolBH gear, others need way longer, but that's expected.
I really think they have have something going. Yes, nolivers will be bored after 4 weeks or until Kunark but everyone else will be busy and entertained. Also huge potential if they have the freedom to add new zones and stuff.
Only thing I dislike are the droprate for "rare" drops. EQ had this 1:3 thing going or better 25% to 75%. Now it's like 1:10 or worse I think because of the short respawn. Now if you want to upgrade an item by drops you see 10 moonstone rings for every fbss e.g. Tried to get the ring from Efreeti had 18 boots before the first ring dropped, wanted the Mithril BP from the priest, had 17 carnal pauldrons before first BP etc. Guess they really want you to upgrade via motes and as already said, they are really rare after tier 3
