Well, for one , Bots don't make mistakes, PCs do -
When I first tried the bots, I got about 30 levels in a few hours. Might be just the way EQemu always has been, most people do not want low exp rates, so exp in general goes up much faster than it would as if I played on live.
When I played on live with full, experienced groups, killing a red was always a big challenge and many times proved disastrous. Not so with the bots.
All around, EQ Live is much harder than EqEmu. I don't like the way Exp drags on on live either. But I do like the game to last a little longer than a day or two; but that's just me.
I do have the fix in what I post at my site for many weeks now, and about a dozen people use it (it's that last 'fix' that still makes my version of the source custom).
