Default I wish Sol-B and Lower Guk were still ok to level in :(

The new ZEM changes are mostly great.... but one big problem is these two amazing zones are now at the bottom of ZEMs!! Making them ghost towns!

I like ZEMs giving people reasons to go elsewhere....but these two places should still be decent hunting!

A problem created by the ZEM changes is that 40s level players stick it out in CT and PAW to the bitter end. CT and PAW already had a great zem before the change. People didn't spend much time in CT and Paw however due to a lack of people. So people went to guk/solb because there were people there to group with.

So the zem change didn't solve over crowding issues it just moved people to different zones.

Yea, Paw is superr crowded....

It's why the dungeons need to make sense with their ZEM. And be competitive... but right now guk and solb are HALF the exp of those other zones.... it's too harsh!!

Guk and Solb has better loot drops then CT/Paw by a long shot(Robe of isvha only thing truly worth from Paw, maybe the 1hd poision wp)
But ZEM works that if there is good loot, then less XP. Less Loot, more XP, which is to help balance. The issue in classic is just not enough 40+ zones to lvl in. Unless your willing to kill NPCs Ie guards, issue is generally guards are farmed by solo not groups)

All the better to justify soloing camping everything of value in the lguk. Classic experience.

Almost makes sense to rotate ZEM monthly or something, but that would be a headache for admins I'm certain

Jerry I believe that was a lot of peoples suggestions. Was like setup a montly Zem changes to get people to move around and see zones. Think it would be awesome personally(heck nice to see people doing Paw/CT), but still not enough drive. But again still not very many 40+ zones. Guk/solb/Paw/CT/Kedge/Permafrost(Bear caves/Icegiants). Which is why so many complain for Teal. 5 zones for roughly 700 lvl 40-50s

Though the outside zone ZEM changes has been amazing. Karanas/Ro/Commons/Rathe are nice and packed like they should be.
