[QUOTE="ced1106, post: 2013149, member: 7551"] I picked up the EQ RPG because it was a bigger book (: A few other differences: * EQ RPG characters require more experience to go up levels, but are more powerful than their D&D counterparts. (Just love them +4 and +6 racial modifiers!) * EQ combat mechanics aren't written as well as PHB, nor is the book's index as complete. * EQ spells emphasize fighting, not detecting. So now you can have adventures which involve intrigue and stuff. No more hiding behind a curtain and casting spells on the NPC! I also just picked up the EQ MM. EQ monsters have HP's up the wazoo! No wonder EQ PC's are so strong! That being said, I also own several adventures and don't see any problems playing them with EQ RPG. Oh sure, the first-level magic-types will be able to spit out more than two attack spells during combat, but I see that as a feature, not a drawback. Cedric. aka. Washu! ^O^ [/QUOTE]
