EverQuest 2’s New Level 125 Boosts Draw Mixed Reactions From The MMORPG’s Community

Darkpaw Games is giving EverQuest 2 players the option to fast track their way to max level as long as they’re willing to pay with cold hard cash. The studio is now selling Darkpaw Hero Adventuring Boosts in the marketplace that will instantly boost your character to level 125 with Adept-tier class abilities, so you can get off to a running start in the Ballads of Zimara expansion.

The bundle also includes a choice of any level 126 to level 130 Grandmaster spell, a level 125 epic spell, a heroes mount research unlock, Ballads of Zimara research materials, and Status Bounty consumables, in addition to a boatload of Zimaran Ballad and Fragment of Time currency.

It’s worth noting that various level boosters have been sold in EverQuest 2’s cash shop for several years, but this is the first time that players will be able to jump all the way up to level 125. It’s received mixed reactions from the free-to-play MMORPG’s community, proving extremely popular with new and casual players as veterans decry it as pay-to-win.

It’s probably safe to say that most of our readers are vehemently against pay-to-win items. Personally, I’m good with level boosts, especially since it gives less active players a way to finally play in the big leagues, but we’d like to know your thoughts on the matter. Let us now in the comments section below.

👏 Characters can become even more Heroic! The new Darkpaw Hero Adventuring Boost will allow you to start at level 125! It’s time to level-up to epicness! ⚔️https://t.co/35oSh1gfe1#everquestii #eqii
