GFay mobs

[Muggens]

I recently started a new char here on P99 after a long absence, rolled a HIE in Gfay.

Thing is, there is almost NO mobs besides lvl 1 mobs in GFay. I ran around like mad, but besides a few pixies, and orcs all the way up north close by CB, the entire zone consists of tons and tons of lvl 1 mobs(wolves, wasps, skeletons). It was impossible to lvl up there so I moved to the Commonlands.
Surely, its not supposed to be like that...
