I can accept that. Thanks for framing your thoughts succinctly. And without an ad hominenem.

I feel like while I have mastered guk. SolA and RE still get me. Gobbo zones are the most dangerous and trickiest and favor small races, so there is that element of a disadvantage being simultaneously an advantage.

By my standards, both guk and seb have plenty of room and are broken up with larger open spaces. They are both organized into fairly concrete loops.

Were as Sola had many dead ends and maze like qualities with more secret areas. If you don't know how pathiing works in SolA and what mobs can agro or chain agro in tight quarters, it's near impossible to safely fight in there, but once patrols and assists are accounted for the difficulty is still normal to high, but definitely doable.

RE is special because there are three distinct faction groups. A banker, and bakers, vendors accessible to all essentially. As well as multiple discreet levels. Plus those zebra and cheetah print decor and furniture, it's clear Runnyeye Goblins have the best class and taste. Once factioned, no one ever has to leave RE really.

Thats my 2c

I tried to solo obtain all I wanted from SolA with my enchanter, basically tried to do the bar, I think the level I tried was about when you would group at the bar, a little lower. But I found it impossible because of some of the 'features' you describe. I managed to clear 1 room without an add, but the number of adds through walls, and stuff, just made it less fun than guk.

TBH I enjoy the layout of guk because it feels like many different dungeons all butted up against each other, and that makes it yes a loot casino, but it just to me feels like the ideal version of this game, clean and well balanced, difficult to learn but still capable of mastering.

Najina at 18-24 was fun, but in the guk sort of way, I was able to solo najina at 24 and it was an interesting pull/fight, because of the guk like, reliability of the spawns.

Sol A each fight is just un-reliable, because it is different every time, and that just made it feel less like I could master it with skill, and it would be more efficient to just go do something easy outside on a 6 min timer until I was higher, then come back and own the place.

So yeah, that's what I reckon.

Fair enough. Sola, really requires the holy trinity to work. Wizards are awesome in there with a tank and cleric to pull and root, the wizard blasts the most dangerous mob then keeps the rest rooted. Good times.

Najena and Guk can get boring and predictable. Sol A is forever young. Got it.

I mean, I was not able to predict how long a time it would take to get my obsidian flamberge, but I did!

If you fall to the depravity of red again PM me and we'll do some PVP or something.

I like any half decent dungeons in an actual MMO. I get lost in all of them until I've put a lot of hours in, so they're all hard to me. Especially when level appropriate and when you want to push just a little further than you should.

dude I get it, I know its crazy, but there is something that I actually like about the repetability of EQ, I mean, for one thing I am still enjoying it (and doing new things when I play every time) 21(2?) years later. So it's not "overly repetable" so its got that going for it.

I like how it lets me just play at my own pace and master things, it feels more like chess, less like, idk something that is like chess but random (orthello? idk)

I've sat and thought about how weird it is, that I prefer a game that plays the same way every time, over one that would be procedural, but I just cant say other than, I just like it the way EQ plays more.

Idk, I think its a matter of opinion, and also that im in a minority, but hey that's why I play eq heh

Naw you're clearly in the majority. You are right about EQ.

There's the RNG tho. And different classes are really different. That adds a lot of depth. As well as the lore.

Guk is pretty good. I just like to make fun of it. I always make it a point to spend some time there though. Just not my personal favorite.

It totally is a matter of opinion too.

I feel like, end guk, requires some powerful gear. Were as SolA is doable at 40-45+ by everyone regardless of gear. I feel like I could get a lot of enjoyment out of Sola on a 47 war or rogue with fine plate and a bone bladed claymore, nawmean?

I love sol a, I just was disapointed in some of the mob agro issues, because there are some dope ass rooms deep in that goblin part of the cave, that are just full of goblins because people too afraid, its too hard to maintain down there

ALso they could have done better itimisation to bring us into those areas, I mean there are some COOL areas back there, goblin barreks, sleeping quarters, a big cave castle, that you only see if you are 'exploring'

My fave thing about guk, back before velious, it was like a player managed city, no mobs were ever up, everyone was in their best most magical gear in the game, you culd walk around and ask for a pair of shin greeves, it was the most bustling spot in the game, and all the while, it was under the bare feet of diaper wearing trolls hitting frogs with clubs who had no idea what was in store for them once they left the swamp.

No there is a useless castle with goblins everywhere and a bunch of zonelines to sol B as well, wasted area..

Like that back area of the basement of befallen, at least 2 nameds should be back there :( Mobs up perpetually except for launch week :(

U mean where the broken lava pillar is. That is more like a wall, gate, fallen road.

U can get back into the solb bug tunnels ez there.

I know exactly what ur talking about.

It's got a cool double? Door and some static guards and 1 patrol i think. Nice spot.

It's directly above the dungeon.

It could have at one time lead deeper into a goblin city :p

I suggest it was the entrance to the goblin city, long ago.

When the children of Zek were punished for attempting to overthrow the gods tectonic activity destroyed the city, subsuming most of it, leaving the area scattered ruins and underground cities.

Or maybe it was a similar cataclysm caused by the imprisonment of Lord Nagafen.

Whatever the disaster that sank the castle, riddling it with tunnels and lava, the goblins then adapted into lava goblins.

Sebilis is the best dungeon in the game. Period. I get the feels every time I zone in.
