Everything wrong about Everquest is in Blackburrow right now
 

The zone was bad enough before the 300 gnoll fang post/guide.

KS'ing everywhere. People arguing. This place sucks.

Is it just me or is the respawn rate about twice what it was in classic? I remember twice as many people and never having to fight that hard for pops. But I guess people were grouping too, so there's that.

Anyway, totally not worth it.

300 gnollfang post/guide? I thought -EVERYONE- knew about the gnoll fang quests for Qeynos/Halas without some guide?

I think everyone already knew, but I think many people didn't realize you could just save them instead of turning them in incrementally and get up to lvl 21 off of them in one fell swoop.

hey at least people are finally using that zone again

Nice, gonna sit in there and watch the fun :)

Blackburrow has always been a good place to die in. Once you go very far past the bridge you are pushing your luck. But yeah, with the fang turn in hard to not go there.

It was standing room only on live with lots of trains. Seems to be the same on P1999. Classic.

Everything awesome about EverQuest is in Blackburrow.
The bad shit is what you bring in. If you're not going to play well with others, just don't.

Hmm. Tecmos needs some more fangs for halas faction.

;)

This sort of dumbassery is entirely classic, the EQ playerbase has always had a large proportion of lemmings and munchkins. IIRC, some early gaming site posted an article in August of '99 that claimed Gnome Necromancer was the "best" EQ race/class combination, soon every server in the game had a serious lowbie gnome necromancer infestation (much like the monk & bard infestations here.)

Lemmings & wannabees: classic EQ at its finest.

It was worse on live - the only difference was how many people would accumulate gnoll fangs. This appears to be a symptom of P99's EZlevelitis that afflicts so many players.

Leave that hive of scum and venture to the Karanas for full immersion.
