Why do people seem to hate luclin so much?

I dunno, people love Velious.

But Velious doesn't Really have a Guk style zone other than maybe Velketors. And Velketor's is really small for what is the Guk style part. There's the spiders which are maybe 2 camps and the dogs which are maybe 2 camps.

Ssra had an equal amount of named and camps, with more quests and better/more interesting raid content. The main difference being that Ssra loot is mostly No Drop. Whereas Velks is mostly tradeable.

No Drop makes you actually have to go out and quest or group your own gear, which I'm a big proponent of. However Kunark people can just flip stuff in EC and buy up whatever they want, which is dumb and not in the spirit of classic at all.

Beyond that though, Velious doesn't have many/any named/ph camp dungeons. There are dungeons like Dragon Necropolis or Siren's Grotto or Kael, but they are all dungeons with high numbers of trash and very few named/ph camps, if any. Which about describes most Luclin dungeons.

luclin was filled with open outdoor xp zones due to increasing massive bitching of casters and groups wich did not want to risk classic dungueon death.

even nowdays the trend continues as most people still xp in kc p99 than own sebilis or hs. people rather have slow xp than risk a wipe in sebs or hs for most part.heck more people in unrest than runneye or gorge of king xorbb.

Baazar allowed u to skip the reseller part of the game , u just went to sleep and let people choose if they wanted to buy ur junk , yesterday i did a micro test in ec by selling a jade mace for 500 pps 1 min later i got 34 tells, 4 mins later dude buyed it was selling for 3k[You must be logged in to view images.

haggle was very rare in old eq, people back then wanted to play the damm game 99% of the people would not sit in ec or in my case kelethin for weeks trying to sell buy just to twink a character before they went to actualy buy a pwlvl for his twink char.
Luclin changed twink forever as most dropeables had minimum lvls , it was a good thing.
