I think a question a lot of people are curious about is this:

Will this make EQ even more laggy? Especially for folks on older machines? Lord knows this game needs more lag....


We did a test with 236 players, ALL wearing the armor. (we have a "snapshot" of a busy guild lobby we use, and a command we can run that places those characters in world.) I have a Nvidia 8600 and an OLD dual core - without the armor I was seing 32 FPS, with the armor I saw 27 FPS. So yes, there is an impact, but it is not gargantuan.

And as I mentioned earlier, players can turn this off. (It turns of your ability to see it at all, so you do not see other people wearing it, nor yourself)
