I'm enjoying the EQL beta a lot but obviously it has some weak points in terms of balance. Personally in something like EQL  I don't like the idea of nerfing stuff that is strong, I think everything right now could be buffed to make the game a lot more fun and exciting.

A big thing for me right now has been the fact that spell casting builds sort of don't slot in as well to the scaling structure of juiced up classic compared to melee. Even with invocations added (which are awesome! there should be more!) most of what you are getting from gear is just a bigger mana pool. Later in the game;s life there were more stats that were added to help with scaling lots of different spells and abilities and I think EQL is sorely missing this kind of itemization in this form of rebalanced Classic.

There is a little bit of this right now through AA's but once you unlock them that's it you are basically capped on your spell damage, while melee continues to scale with STR/DEX.

It doesn't have to be exactly the same system/calculations that were done in later expansions, but I think this is potentially a much simpler solution than adding new layers or calculations like scaling spell damage with int/wis. It could be a cool thing to also maybe rebalance and make some historically meh gear more desirable. 

What do you think about adding this kind of stuff to EQL's brand of classic EQ?

Doing a pass of Classic gear and adding all these stats would solve a lot of the minor issues in EQL I think
