^ So you're saying Velious is just an entire continent devoted to agriculture.

How would everyone describe these zones?

Icewell Keep -- Dain Frostraper, some quests, and tunnels with high lvl trash that nobody will ever kill
Kael Drakkal -- Giant home city, King Tormax raid boss, named giants drop some loot and various guards drop Thurgadin armor pieces
Skyshrine -- Dragon home city, Yelinak raid boss, Guardian armor (slightly below planar for most pieces, some better) drops randomly, also other random drops. Cobalt Scar key drops here.
Thurgadin -- Dwarf home city. Various quests. No loot dropping mobs IIRC. Everyone is non-KOS with Dwarves initially so this is the "main" city in Velious.

Cobalt Scar -- Wyverns for quad kiting, Othmir for THE BEST FOOD EVER and cuteness. Kelorek`Dar, Faydedar's Velious cousin, spawns here
Eastern Wastes -- Ry'gorr orc fort for lvl 40's, various quests, lots of roamers that run at SoW speed. Entrance to Crystal Caverns is in Ry'gorr fort
The Great Divide -- Caves have lots of tizmak which are low-mid 30's IIRC, entrance to Thurgadin and Velks are here. Wyrm caves.
Iceclad Ocean -- Boat from NRO lands here. Lodizal spawns here, though you'll probably never see him on this server. TOFS entrance is here. Mostly unremarkable otherwise.
Siren's Grotto -- Extremely difficult single group dungeon for 60's. Lots of caster mobs, very high average MR, and unslowable named. Some excellent drops but most of them are trash until loot gets revamped.
Wakening Land -- Wuoshi lives here at the ring. Entrance to PoG is in the middle. Holgresh Elder beads drop here. A few quests have targets here. Pretty zone but mostly a pass-through area.
Western Wastes -- Massive outdoor area with lots of named dragons which drop armor pieces of varying quality and NoS-style talismans with +all stats +hp/mana and +resists. ToV and DN entrances are here. Also has Scout Charisa quest for dragon-lovers which will likely be permacamped for a while.

Crystal Caverns -- Mid level dungeon, excellent cash drops. There's a vendor on Dwarf faction here.
Dragon Necropolis -- High level dungeon with two warring factions of ratmen. Lots of traps. ST key turnin mob is here. Rats drop Velium weapons of varying quality. Few rare spawns with extremely good items. Willsapper.
Sleeper's Tomb -- It's Sleeper's Tomb. Primal weapons and Gnome masks, Monkey robes and Sceptres of Destruction
Temple of Veeshan -- West wing is for Giant-lovers armor pieces and has Dragon-lover quests. East drops quest components for dragon-lovers. North is dragons that hate everyone. Plane of Mischief entrance is in North.
Tower of Frozen Shadow -- Extremely cool dungeon with lots of atmosphere, kind of sucks for levelling but fun to explore. Was amazing on live, not sure how well fleshed-out it will be here.
Velketor's Labyrinth -- Karnor's Castle with ice, complete with trains, mediocre loot and vague camp boundaries which people will argue over endlessly in OOC. 2 raid mobs, Lord Bob (Doljonijiarnimorinar) and Velketor.

Plane of Growth -- MASSIVE outdoor raid zone. Armor drops for all classes except Druid and Paladin with stats roughly equivalent to Thurgadin armor. If you are a Tunare worshipper, there are quests and the zone is friendly to you until you kill stuff.
Plane of Mischief -- Another extremely cool zone on live, was probably never entirely understood before it was revamped. Entrance is in NToV. Various puzzles and some quests which result in oddly-colored armor pieces and resist flowers which provide a clicky effect w/ +50 to a single resist.
