Tried soloing in Sol Ro Temple a bit. Possible, but painfully slow and bad exp.
Would love to see some exp guides by the people saying "just be creative" who haven't shown much of their own creativity [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I'm gonna hit up Akanon soon. I enjoy going to the out-of-the-way places or killing things people don't often kill for exp. What I have found so far is, if it wasn't designed for exp, it's usually terrible exp (by a factor of 3-5+ from "normal" exp.)

Well the wiki guide also points you to the best places, which we didn't know back in the day.
When was the last time you seen players in EC looking for group members to camp nektulos guards? it did happen back in the day. | ||

Almost Every "out of the way" areas for exping is typically twice as slow at least, even after the exp increases to underused areas ; unless you are a specific class using specific niche spells in a specific area while being a specific level for that camp. | |||

Because that was about half of my experience back in the day on the live game. | |||

But then you got to a secondary, semi decent camp with decent exp and it's locked down by a solo, or duo that refuse to invite you because it's only a semi decent exp camp and they want to maximise exp gain. Again, sure kinda lame but it makes sense. Move on. You go to a 3rd semi decent camp and get declined by the solo or duo there. You go to a 4th semi decent camp and meet the same resistance. You've now been online for 2-4 hours accomplishing nothing but using EQ as a chatroom with guildies and friend in /tell trying to find a great or even decent exp spot and say fuck it. Imma go to where no one goes, afterall so many people screech like parrots on the forum about it being viable. You go there and mobs are roaming all over. Yellows whites and blues galore. Fuck yea! This is where I can play the game and enjoy it. An excited hour later of constantly killing mobs you notice you only made half a yellow bubble because the exp is so god awful and you realize that's why the zone is empty to begin with. Then at hour 5-6 of accomplishing pretty much nothing besides being better at dominating Mavis Beacon via chatrooming EQ you log off because you have work soon. | |||

Think Gundumwing said it, best.
But again blame the Wiki, and non dial up connection. The game was wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy yyyyyyyy different back with our rose color glasses on. Back in day it was an adventure you would spend your whole night just looking around. XP was just a side thing. Exploring a zone you never been too, jsut to run into a group of close level, grouping with them and exploring.. p99 isnt about exploring anymore sadly. Though there is some are chance, but 90% of it is the grind.
