Check out the other posts in this (Everquest) forum. You won't even need the search because it was just created last week. ;)

You should be able to find the answer to most of your questions except for PvP. I don't do any PvP'ing, so I won't be much help.
But I think it's geared more for PvE, or thats the way it seems to me at least.

We've been adding a lot of info to the new Wiki, so take a look at that too for setup and other fun things.

The game works differently than WoW, so a lot of the easy things your used too doing will be a little harder in EQ2. (see macros in wiki and mods).

The graphics are completely different than the WoW style. Better in my opinion. :thumbup:

That being said, it can be a littler more demanding on your computer than WoW in some aspects.
A dual-core laptop I had that ran 3 intances of WoW won't even run 1 instance of EQ2.
BUT that doesn't mean all dual-cores won't work. An older PC with single core ran the game ok with medium to low settings.
My new PC runs all 6 though, 1 with almost maxed settings. :thumbsup:

PvP in EQ is totally different from WoW and its a little bit off in terms of balance. I played my first character to 45ish~ on Nagafen and I really detested the PvP. The reason mostly is because people play these really low level characters that get exp locked and get super twinked with pvp items. This causes a huge gear gap between leveling characters and gank groups that go around ganking people with no gear.

Some people enjoy it though. Not my cup of tea personally.
