Exp Group for levels 50-60
 
What are 3 zones to find a pick up group for levels 50-60 other than the hole? My primary class is a warrior.

Sebilis, Karnor's Castle, Solb

KC being the easiest to get in and out

You're better off sending tells to LFG people and starting groups, the only zone for consistent pick up grouping is the Hole. Making a good buddy out of a cleric would be huge for you.

This seems pretty consistent with my experience. It's sad.. when the server first opened weren't there so many people that they started a Teal server?

Now there's only 1 zone to exp in?

Blame the ZEM for everyone sticking to the Hole more than the population. The population IS much lower than at launch but that was too much really. Its still a pretty healthy population.

Another problem is that many classes would prefer to solo or duo. A cleric and ench can absolutely wreck any group content in the game and make far more xp doing so than they would carrying a melee toon along with them.

Additionally, there's a problem of the other Kunark dungeons being considered "loot zones" versus "xp/leveling zones" by the general playerbase. If people are in KC or Seb primarily to farm then adding more people than they need just means more dice rolls to share the loot with from their viewpoint.

The Hole is a cool zone though. If you haven't spent a lot of time in it then its worth doing the 50-60 grind down there at least once, you'll learn a lot about the place. But I sympathize with you wanting more variety.

Skyfire mountains, charduck, and burning woidz is pretty good for some 49+ levels.

Guk is gr8 till 54.

The Hole has the best ZEM and it's big enough with fast enough respawn where it can support 10-12 groups. So unless you are looking for loot, there isn't a reason to be elsewhere.

50-60 the XP is so bad people only want to do 2-3 (maybe 4) person groups outside of KC, and it will take you 3 years to level to 60 at LCY and Basement in full groups. The reality is you need to make your own groups or you will sit LFG for 30 minutes then log out.

The P99 experience takes a turn for the worse at about level 53 and that's when I imagine the bulk of the population starts rolling alts. The top guild right now is TMO level immersed so there is no competition or reason to get to 60 unless you want to become one of the mighty unwashed.

It would be really nice if we had the incentive to have full groups (more XP bonus) but I guess 'not classic' ect ect. The GMS spend 90% of their time worrying about 5%-10% of the population (raiders) but won't give the other 90% QoL upgrades like full group incentives - it's really a bummer honestly, and about the only thing they did right on Red Server.

SolB is a ghost town and Sebelis is mainly guild groups only, have you played on Green anytime lately or just making shit up?
