The Spirit Realm

I absolutely adore EQ facts!

Population breakdown by class across all EverQuest Worlds:
11% Warrior
8% Cleric
8% Druid
7% Necromancer
7% Ranger
6% Enchanter
6% Magician
6% Monk
6% Paladin
6% Rogue
6% Shadowknight
6% Shaman
5% Bard
5% Beastlord
5% Wizard
2% Berserker


Shaman population across all EverQuest Worlds & Level
Level 1-9 23%
Level 10-19 32%
Level 20-29 14%
Level 30-39 9%
Level 40-49 6%
Level 50-59 8%
Level 60-69 5%
Level 70 3%

Also, an interesting class by server break down is here:

The races are pretty even when compared across each server population but there are a few that stand out. 16% of the population on Zek is made up of Dark Elves with the rest of the races spanning between 2-10% and Dark Elves making up 10-11% of the populations on the other servers. 15% of the population on Firiona Vie is made up of Humans with the rest of the races spanning between 2-12% and Humans making up 10-13% of the populations on the other servers. It also appears that Trolls are pretty unanimously the least populated race in EverQuest with Frogloks close behind. I guess the war between the Trolls and Frogloks whittled down the numbers of both races.

Another interesting bit here, this time about Epic 1.5 and who was the first to complete the quest for each class and claim the first Epic 1.5, the date it was completed and the server completed on. Server names remain as they were before server merges as these are the servers the epics were founded on and each character and server deserves that recognition in my opinion.

*whittles his way through the froglok population with his stew pot, fork, and knife*

I bet that the 'general population' levels span about the same as the shaman levels, taking into account chars tha tpeople played fo ra while then quit, bazaar mules, etc.

I'd actually guess that the lower level characters are more alts and bazaar mules than anything. I doubt that most people who have a "main" character are below level 20. The problem is that while Sony can look at the raw numbers of existing characters by querying their databases, they can't tell how those characters are being played/used.
