Oasis.... WHY?

[Tippett]

I am currently playing a level 13 Cleric grouping in the Oasis area.

I have read alot of posts about Oasis having sucky exp and being boring.

I agree it's boring but the exp isn't that bad from 13-17ish...

But I see multiple people lvls 18-20 STILL hanging around for shitty Orc exp.

For shit's sake go to HHP or MM or something, theres some either very lazy or very misinformed individuals out there :o

/rant off

[Tippett]

And a majority of the time the only reason the exp sucks is you will have a lvl 18-20 in your group funneling all the exp, so yeah like I stated earlier MOVE ON!!!!!

i know what you mean

it sucks at lower levels cause even a 2 level difference can severely hurt xp gains.

It's good for soloing at later levels, and even though each mob might not provide a whole lot of exp, you can still get quite good exp because of the pace you're killing them + a healthy income.

[Tippett]

The individuals I am referring to were seeking groups in the area, not soloing

[Chanus]

Yeah, you jerks! Stop having fun and powergame!

Race to 50! The game doesn't start until you have nothing left to do!

[Tippett]

Everyone has their own idea of fun, but I don't see how killing the same mobs in the same zone for 8 levels straight is fun :confused:

killing the same mobs in the same zone for 8 levels straight

Welcome to Everquest!

lol I remember camping solo mob spawns on 7-25 minute timers nonstop for hours on end to level. It's pretty classic.

Wait until you do solb for 15 levels.

When i found oasis on live i just loved it. Prolly spent a week there 10 hours a day.

I like sol b. It's when it's camped and you have to get trained in guk for negative 2 levels that sucks. Okay sol b kinda sucks too. It's just hard to die there doing exp camps.

A sand giant once gave me a magical bag of billy mays cremated ashes.....I ended up snorting it with Robert Downey Jr. the next day. This has nothing to do with your dumb fucking topic...

*ahem*

You sir are dumb.

Don't group with people higher level than you. Problem solved. If Oasis was like live you wouldn't see it so crowded either. When all gators were aggressive and the zone had multiple wandering sand giants.

[Mardur]

Gators were never aggressive on live...

[maegi]

who is Lockjaw for 100 Alex? Wait, he's a crocodile!

That was a pretty good dramatic zoom. I felt the world disintegrate around me with every subsequent block quote.

I agree @ 18 you need to move away from Oasis, but here'e the thing.

I was in Oasis from 12-17, was quick as fuck. FAST pulls, decent xp. Unlimited grouping potential since there's so many people. Then, @ about 1 orange till 18, I went to Uguk for a group. Pulls were slow, exp was good, but not as good as the lightning fast pulls of crocs in Oasis. Most dungeons and other zones just simply aren't as populated and it's often times hard to find a group, let along a good group.

I am now sitting in South Karana hoping to do groups for Aviaks, and it seems like it's not that popular of a spot. That being said, I may be heading back to Oasis for 18/19. Nothing beats Deepwater crocs/caimens.
