It's perfect. Exp but not much loot in The Hole, or cool loot and less exp in Seb/KC/Chardok. Balance!

No one is forcing anyone to go to The Hole. We are all free to form a solid group and go do one of the many camps that are open in Seb, for example.

The Hole is the greasy chute you sacrifice loot and accept monotony to ride. Speaking as someone who hit 60 before The Hole and has gone 51-59 on a second character in The Hole, the greasy life and associated monotony has felt a *lot* more palatable than doing backflips for 2.5% xp/hr.

Yeah, I did like 86% of 59 in 15 hours straight in the hole at docks chain pulling on my war. The hole is bae.

Does Drop of Mercury not drop in the hole on P99?
Fiery Jewel of the Underfoot?
Smoldering Brands?
Loam Encrusted and Withered Leather pieces?

if you aren't making money in the hole it might be because you're bad.

Agreed.

Hole is Karnor's 2.0 filled with mostly shitty players and a few people (pullers, enchanters, bards) carrying the dead weight.

Venture out to the better zones for a more enjoyable, more profitable experience.

Late Kunark / Early Velious the hole was not only great exp, but also great money. Drop of Mercury is a core ingredient to Dwarven Cultural. I made a ton of plat leveling 50-60 there, when no one else wanted to go, by collecting it and making armor. My duo was warrior + cleric. We'd go in, invite every enchanter who was soloing. The best exp group I've done is warriors + cleric, enchanter, enchanter, enchanter, enchanter in the hole.

Still pretty decent but not mega bucks. You can farm it faster in nejena or SF.

I mean you dont make buucoo bucks in the hole, but you can make good money depending on gem drops and scooping loose coin. The same war I talked about earlier made like 10k in gems from 50-60. But yeah theres no big ticket items unless your group can like, snipe yael.

I remember the day the Hole came out... I got someone to cast levitate on me and floated down inside. Levitate was removed upon zoning in for some reason (can’t remember why, but it did this to everyone). I fell to my death. I was super distraught and uncertain how to get my corpse, so I told a real life friend how awesome the Hole was and tricked him into levitating down inside too so he would lose his corpse also. I don’t remember how I got my body back, but I think a necro friend summoned it for me.

Had so much fun in hole. Whats the problem ? Its huge, challenging, well designed, interesting lore. Well it has a soul. Lots better then karnor in my opinion.

This game is about ONE thing: platinum. Racing your peers to 60 and winning does not "beat" the game. You end up 60, broke, and dependent on help or extreme raid luck.

Platinum is only worth the muffins and bandages it can buy. What kind of pauper has to use their plat to buy gear? LOL.

I only need another 150k to get the rest of my spells.

It's ok though, I have the spells I need for the next couple of levels so I can concentrate on gear.....for which I need another 50k or so.
