This is definitely not a stupid expansion by any means, as some may have said. Raising the level cap does three notable things.
For those of us at the high-end of PoP (elemental/Time), it means that Sony will rework the encounters so you can't 3-group them or something ridiculous like that. That means fresh, more difficult, and more interesting encounters.
For the people working on GoD right now, it means a slightly more viable way to deal with the insanely difficult encounters in the newest expansion.
And for everyone else, it means getting into VT and elementals is going to be really easy. Pretty soon your average mid-level Luclin guild is going to be experiencing an even easier VT, with even easier attained loots, which will vault them into elementals. Places like PoE and PoF in the planes have the potential to turn into BoT2.0.
Also, the epic2.0 is an interesting twist that forces people to try GoD (which most find to be very fun/challenging). Nothing wrong with trying to give people an incentive to try your content. Imo this expansion has the potential of being very interesting and will definitely change EQ on all levels.
