During one playthrough, I was a Gnome enchanter. I would go into Dark Elf illusion and hang out in the Blind Fish in Neriak to do my research. The dim Neriak ambiance, the underwater view, and the quiet dignity of the zone were so vivid to me.

Oh man, I love the Blind Fish. Definitely my log-out spot of choice for all of eastern Antonica.


Sadly, I can't say that Steamfont is as accepting of my dark-elf rogue as Neriak was of your gnome enchanter. The zoo staff in particular is still quite touchy about catching me murdering their tigers, and I haven't yet assembled the minotaur statue made entirely of minotaur horns that the King robot demands in order to let me walk the streets free of robot assault.

Honorable mention: as a bard on Red99, I spent a lot of multi-hour sessions in South Karana hunting Quillmane. I would witness the whole day/night cycle in that zone, including really beautiful sunsets and sunrises. Even with those 1999 graphics, Norrath can be so immersive and captivating. I felt like I really was this adventurer experiencing days and nights in the wilderness, with the sky as my only roof and the sun and stars as my only lights (probably with some additional lighting from those Ragefire vambraces).

Running across the Karanas has stopped being a chore for me when I realized the sunrise sky over the neon green plaque mists is actually quite beautiful! I also have fond memories of the lonely beauty of the sunrise over the Ocean of Tears, but not fond enough to repeat the cross-zone swim that resulted in such a moment.

Combine Rings in the fall
the most pleasant view I ever saw
I hit a yeti in the jaw
levitate fades and now I fall
death

Such poetry!

Field of Bone. As an iksar it's nice to visit a place where the guards don't want your ass

Howling Stones south because it is almost always empty.

My new Dark Elf Wizard uses Fay Gate as his escape of choice. I'm a neutral-good dark elf, but i'm still surrounded by a civilization who will kill me only for being blue, and yet that spot with the spire is isolated from the elves, and the animals, and there is only green, a few trees and rocks around me, and everyone leaving me alone while I recover.

I love hanging out at the waterfall in front of Thurg! It’s a pretty peaceful place
