Solo 1-50 in DaoC is a breeze compared to.. a solo hunter in WoW. Then there's the "exp split between players" thing in WoW. It's no problem if you can (afford to) multibox enough clients to farm instances or AE farm, but when you are a poor dualboxer like me, if you've burnt out on the Azeroth grind before, prepare to say goodbye to the world of warcraft again.
