But yeah, this population boom is great, seems more classic. On live, camps seemed much smaller. People were perfectly content with killing several mobs and then having a few minutes of downtime before respawns. Here, the standard always seems to have been that if you aren’t killing non stop then exp is slow.
We (well, I certainly was, and probably "we" were too) were also generally bad and not geared like we tend to be on p99. The number of things we could kill on live and have a few minutes med break would be less than what a decent solo chanter can keep down on p99.

There were so many spots that a single mob was an acceptable camp for a solo player. Ratraz in third gate. Oowomp in TD. The hermit in SK. Etc. I used to think Ratraz was an amazing camp on live, actually. One kill every 6-7 minutes who dropped a few platinum weapon every time, and you could fix your faction with red wine turnins during the breaks after you medded up? Pure gold, right?

Meanwhile on P99 the idea of a bard diet kind of camp, if you're any class with any solo ability whatsoever and you aren't doing it because you need the slow pace, is unthinkable.
