Wouldn’t say that EQ or DAoC were low effort mindless grind. Leveling or the super awesome large scale PvP (damn I miss this) needed tons of work, coordination and effort. I retired at the time the daoc beta went live and I basically lived there 😁

But farming for some stuff sure was low effort chilly grinding.

Anyhow, nice to read anything about daoc at all. It always seemed very niche. Eq had its moment in the sun and wow…is wow.
