I'm returning to EQII after a long break (since early summer), and I hardly recognize the game! In many ways this is great - I LOVE the DoF expansion pack and the SOGA models! But I find myself running around with a lvl 46 fury who has no idea what she's doing half the time. My spell lines have changed, death seems to have lost it's sting, and a whole heap of other things. Is there a site out there anywhere that chronicles the major changes and their impact? I've been sifting through what seems to be almost daily update notes, but it's a long and daunting process. If someone has done it for me, then all I can say is YIPPEE! If not, I'll continue to trudge on through.

I love EQ2! In all honesty, I don't get what all the grumbling is about. Never have. It's the most immersive experience I've had since I first stumbled into Asheron's Call! (And, say what you will about that game, it was quite an experience to suddenly stumble into a server full of not just newbies to AC, but newbies to the whole genre. It was amazing to play as we all stumbled along learning our way.) Even with the additional dumming down, I plan to play for a long time!
Oops, I didn't come to editorialize. I'm just looking for a site with a good overview of the changes so I don't have to sift through a hundred and one update notes!
I love it too, althought I'm hooked on SWG right now like scara, although I am unable to play over 60 hours in a week like him.

read the live updates on the offical forums:

They are stickied on the top part of the page. The endless daily updates are usually hot fixes and do not make major changes to the way the game is played.

Oh the memories. how I barely let a friend talk me into playing AC and how I was hooked from the get go.
