Old Player Thinking of Returning

Hello everyone, I am an old EQ vet that used to play on the Fenin Ro server back on the official game. Back then I was a bit younger and while I had a decent handle on the game I wasn't in a competitive server first progression guild. I did still complete many raids. However, it's been years since I touched the game leaving after LoY xpac. Looking to jump back in, but looking for help to make transition smoothly.

-Any min/max guides for various clases? (race/class combo, end-class roles, gear to aim for)

-What are some good plugins/macros to use in game? Like clean UI, maps, etc

-Efficient leveling/boss strats (been forever don't remember boss strats and not sure if alakhazam has info)

-What's status on items that had prenerfed versions? (Circlet of Shadow, Guise of the Deceiver, Journeyman boots, etc)

-What is camping ettitquet/rules? Before many players would have some semblance of decency camping until they got the items and maybe one extra to sell. How to deal with perma-campers who won't leave spot 24/7.

-I used to play Halfling Druid & Troll Shadow Knight. Anyone able to give a quick run down on group/raid roles. Trying to see if I should replay those classes or roll something else that is more my style.
