Why is Mistmoore so much less active than Unrest?

[BahamutDF]

I started on Green here in July and brought two characters through the 20’s so far, a Bard that I mainly duo swarmed on with a relative of mine, and my Enchanter which I play as my actual main when he’s not around.

At the start of the XP weekend Mistmoore had really solid grouping and I had a blast there, but since Saturday night the zone has been dead while Unrest is swarmed with people. I get that Unrest is pretty nutty XP in a good group at the right camps, but Mistmoore honestly was similarly amazing and IMO is a more fun, interesting, and expansive zone with more variety of play.

Is there a meta reason Mistmoore is so hit or miss? Is Unrest just better XP in a maximized condition (full group of competent players)?

Anyway, hoping to see more people in Mistmoore today when I get home from work to conclude the Xp event. Maybe I’m in a minority but I so much prefer playing there than Unrest, it’s just such a cool zone.
