Solo player, then groups, then raids can enjoy EQ2, in that order? LOL, again the lies. And I dont see what there is to enjoy(not even for a week, for months? damn this is torture) in been weak compare to others, if solo is not self reliant toward complete and total solo uberness, then it is not a viable option. Neither is grouping in this particuliar setting, where you have to raid...
Lies all day long, you dont fool anyone anymore. Get a few raiders and extremely vocals online players to support you, solo is the crap in EQ2, grouping is not appealing unless you happen to enjoy raiding...saying otherwise is lying.

You have absolutely no clue what you are talking about. This adventure zone is one of the most innovative and fun adventures added to an mmorpg. Go check out the official forums, which are typically filled with tons of whining and complaining (just like every other official forum for a game). What you will see is that everyone is raving about how awesome this adventure zone is - for everyone. Yes, that means solo players as well as small and large groups.
Hmm, I am about to hit 30 (Paladin) and have never grouped and my nephew (who plays a lot more than me) is at level 45 (Warlock) and has soloed all the way. When the game came out it was pretty much impossible to solo but things have changed quite a bit. As far as Splitpaw goes I have soloed the pre order dungeon and the upper levels of the release dungeon, plus did a few mobs in the solo arena. Now off to check the lower levels ....
Of course if you expect to solo Epic mobs, you are right the game is unsoloable, but this is not a one player game there has to be content for all play styles and I think they are doing a great job.
