I was wondering where I could get info on what zones have what exp modifier. I could guess and try to remember but things aren't always exactly like they were in classic. Anyone know for sure?

Everyone always quotes that post and it is absolutely wrong. Those numbers are pulled from the other servers on EQEmu, not from P99. P99 uses different numbers which are supposed to be closer to classic and are not shown to the players. The bonuses are much lower.

I agree those are just the stock EQEMu numbers and likely changed. The question is whether or not there is any reason for the devs not to release such information?

They are definitely changed - devs have mentioned it on IRC. Granted, I can't provide proof, but you'll have to take my word that the bonus exp is much smaller. I think they're not releasing the information to make it more like classic, since in classic you didn't know what zones had what ZEM values.

There's no way CB has a higher exp bonus then kedge... Lol.... Kedge probably has the best.

Aw I was hoping the Devs would released the ZEM information - bummer! I wonder if Befallen is still high like that chart shows. I loved hunting there.

You killed there before? It makes hell levels feel like normal, and normal levels feel like cheating.

I haven't in a really long time...Like 2000-2001ish. I remember running it a few times for epic quests. Once some of my chars get up there (I keep running chars to late 20s and then switching because I get bored), it's def one of the places i'll go...

But I distinctly remember the mod being like 30-50%, or some insane amount.
