Why is Mistmoore so much less active than Unrest?

this, but i would upgrade some to: Most

if the Hole ZEM switched to somewhere else, 10 minutes later it would be a ghost town (haha get it?)

The hole is bananas. WTB ZEM boost in sebilis and velks so people actually pug there.

IKR? KC is a ghost town as well unless people are doing quests [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This and what I took as greediness are the reasons I no longer play P99. But I do still check the board weekly, because I do still have the addiction, just no where to satisfy it.

Longer respawn timer, worse exp modifier, essentially only two camps because nobody has the balls to go in the castle or the castle cash camps are locked down by higher levels, groups are more often twinked in better than classic gear, so mobs die faster, which means they'll run out of mobs faster. I'm just guessing, but probably near enough the mark.

Pretty much this. A group of 3-4 twinks could probably do well enough, but that is not compatible with then new/casual players that should be there. MM (and also KC) really highlights a huge flaw in p99's ZEM strategy.

This. I like the hole but it sucks to have to basically limit myself to 1 zone to find a decent group, and if you don't log in early enough you can spend quite some time LFG there waiting for a group spot to open up. Velks and seb are dangerous enough dungeons to warrant a 120+ ZEM imo, 85 ZEM in seb is just crazy to me considering the difficulty of the dungeon. Velks isn't bad at 100 tbh but also far more difficult than The Hole. Kedge is also amazing exp, the best ZEM in the game and good till 55ish, but nearly impossible to find people to go there as most either don't want to go, or refuse to go without an EB item and don't have one.

I always assumed the main reason is that Unrest has better ZEM. In the early days of Green/Teal, there were more groups in Mistmoore. Also, Unrest has some interesting named spawns with useful items. I don't think that really exists outside of the Castle in Mistmoore. I've never actually had a group go inside the castle, only as far as castle entrance. I've always assumed this was because it would be too dangerous of a shitshow trying to fight in there.

Yeah I agree. It's getting boring to kill elementals and golems. I want to change it up

and kill frogs or crystal creatures sometimes! also miss kunark content!

Mistmoore does not have a longer respawn timer than Unrest

So get a group together and go. I haven't been in a high ZEM dungeon in several weeks now; been forming PUGs with people off Discord and Reddit and supplementing by sending tells to people in game to fill out the group. Have done crawls through CC, ToFS, LGuk, couple Kunark dungeons, etc.
