Poor Cara Omica.. That's what you get for being Tserrina's best friend..

Shoutout to Amontehepna- You a playa...

[DMN]

Has to be. This is the zone I was finally honored with an NPC named after me. Long time past due, Verant bros.

How you gonna go from dating Mayong Mistmoore, to ehhhh Amontehepna's good enough.....

[Naethyn]

I still go with Dalnir.

[Tobius]

It slaps but like most of the rest of the game it's empty so also no.

The devs wont do non classic changes for greater overall classic feel.

For example rotating hotzones, not classic, would actually mean all zones getting used, which was classic.

Having a sub 1000 player player base is also not classic.

TL;DR what I consider constitutes classic is correct, what everyone else thinks is wrong.

[Tunabros]

nah I got to give #1 dungeon to Guk

Though ToFS is an awesome dungeon

still trying to get a Tserrina`s Robe (https://wiki.project1999.com/Tserrina%60s_Robe)

[ScottBerta]

That would be Sebilis.

[imsorryGMs]

Always been a fan of Najena, Sol A, and Lower Guk.

[Arteker]

1- sebilis.
2-mistmoore.
3-dalnir-
4- tofs.
5-com.
8- guk because it was fucking giant.



karnor was always a letdown.

[NPC]

Sebilis is the quintessential zone, not just dungeon, but is basically the way the game is meant to be played. Every class is useful and usually desired to have varied classes, even Evacer's. Name one dungeon other than Sebilis where a group actively seeks Evacer's? Of course that would be LIVE Sebilis, on green is probably terrible, I won't know until I go there, but only after I know for sure keys are soulbound. Tower of frozed shade sux, its actually the absolute worst dungeon, as goes for most of Velious. Trash exp, trash loot, no groups, ya what a great dungeon. (LIVE) Can only assume this is a joke. Fuk sake anyone actually play live but me?

[Toryas]

There’s only one Tower.

[Cecily]

No, but I like Karnor's Castle. Trains make the game fun. W/o chaos this is an awful game

[Snortles Chortles]

Seb is pretty cool
never stepped foot in it until red

[RecondoJoe]

It's weird to see this because on my server the zone was always dead, and I could never get a group that was really capable of going passed the entry area. Similar with the Hole. Like a million years ago when we played this game I don't really remember anyone ever grouping in the Hole for experience the way they do now. IDK if this is solely because of ZEM changes, or because players are just more coordinated now?

[branamil]

No, it's crystal caverns.

[regandna]

No, it's crystal caverns.

GTFOH!

[beargryllz]

Bush did TOFS

[myrddraal]

I love nagafens lair. I wish more people did too :(

[Jibartik]

I want to say yes, but its very hard to enjoy it if there is like 1 or 2 groups there already, which is sad.

[Snortles Chortles]

The hole was always empty on fennin to when I used to hfl sneak shiny robes

[Evia]

No, it's crystal caverns.

[Byrjun]

The design of TOFS is great, but like a lot of things in EQ it feels kinda unfinished. The loot especially is pretty disappointing. For all the effort it takes to get to and kill Tserrina her drops are straight garbage.

[Imago]

Always been a fan of the "be careful how deep down the rabbit hole you go" style of dungeon. Look at Sol A > Sol B or UGuk > LGuk. Even Unrest and MM to a lesser extent.

(Fresh EQLive perspective circa 1999, not sweaty P99 perspective, below) -
Sure, a group of high teens can stomp around the ent of each and act like they have balls of brass. Go straight through the gate in Sol A, rather than hang left, or god forbid zone into Sol B and bumrush the kobolds when you don't know what's coming - that'll check your ego real quick.

Guk was a little harder to fuck with before the prescribed levels, as it took a bit of a trek to get to the extremely dangerous LGuk mobs and typically was out of reach from idiots playing god at ent. Same with MM, til your high 20s dumbass fell into the grave in the GY and ran around looking for a way out. RIP.

Unrest? You let some ghoul root you in the Round Room and run upstairs and you're already running out the door to the zone line, letting everybody know what you did and profusely apologizing for the XP you're about to cost some poor 14 wizard just tryna slay a beetle out front.

That's the kind of shit that made dungeons on Live fun. That's that kind of rush that brought us to P99 in the first place.

[HalflingSpergand]

+1 for tofs being top 5 dungeons in norrath
