The whole PEQ install, (whether done manually or using the installer) will come with bugs and quirks, but as a rule of thumb, it comes "as is". There is literally many things that don't function as some may want them to, simply because the client restrictions will prevent it, while other little bugs, here and there, the onus is on you to fix them, according to your own preferences and needs.

Each client version (Titanium, SoF, UF, Rof, etc) also comes with their own individual perks and quirks in the way they integrate with the server. This all has to do with the fact that the main EQEmu (project) devs/teams cannot/will not "hack the client files" to accomplish their goals with the PEQ project. The individual server owner would be acting on their own accord on how to handle those scenarios. Example - Using the old highpass with the RoF2 client is doable, but you're on your own to make it work. (or find help in the community for it).

What it all boils down to, as you run into all the various bugs, you will have to decide which client would better suit YOUR needs and preferences for a server. People hate Titanium, for some performance reasons and other people will love Rof2 for it's QoL features, etc, but will also come with trying to make some things work, that you wouldn't have to in Titanium.(and vise-versa).

If you see something broken (or not functioning properly), you need to fix it or, find a workaround for it. Something I did in the past with RoF2 client and that "elevator" in Gfay (a quick fix) was a simple port script on an NPC, which put your toon up where the elevator normally takes you:

Code:
sub EVENT_SAY {

  if($text=~/hail/i) {
	quest::movepc(54,-140.6,-13.05,76.16,257);
  }
}
It really is all about what kind of server you're going to have, which will be the deciding factor in how much work you will have to get all the bugs out of it and working like you want it. Have Fun
