It was one ambitious expansion with a great story, and another cash-grab "feature-expansion" "Age of Discovery" $40 for reforging and Beastlord.

But yes Rise of Kunark had epic weapons and that was really fun, the game was still good and fun and challenging and fun raids.

Everquest II has a massive open world to explore with tones of quests to keep you busy for hours. lots of classes to choose from and a decent character customization. keep in mind this game is from the early 2000s so its not the best looking, but at least for me i do not mind.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It is a good for being stable during solo play, which is mainly dps and healer for the most part.
