It will be, the point of the druid would be to catch the zerker up and attempt raiding in GoD erra.

The Hole is one of the most underrated zones in Everquest history. I applaud the P99 team for making it an attractive zone to level in. The ZEM change was needed in order to attract people to such a place. Alternatives to the Hole for leveling are surprisingly slim for a group of 46+ adventurers.

My other favorite zone besides the Hole is Velketor's. Sadly, monsters have more HP and because there are less people there, you have a lower chance at getting help should your group wipe. That's always been a reality with EQ is asking yourself and your group members, is the reward worth the risk? Does a 1 to 2 hour CR sound like something people are willing to chance when they're limited on time? For the unemployed player base here, I'm sure there is no complaint. For the working players, it takes long enough to get everyone together to even enter a dungeon, they just want to jump in and play ASAP. Thus, the Hole offers the best convenience for the casual players.

Velks, HS, Sebilis, KC (lol I guess basement is alright or if you can pull 3/4 the zone), Sol b efreeti camp or LDC, Kedge Keep, upper levels of CoM, there are tons of places to go in mid high 50s.

Along with "don't eat the yellow snow", grandma also taught me to embrace the grind, and that Leveling was over rated.
I had a great time kicking and punching rats, snakes, skellies and ork pawns in the freeport zones as a new player. There is just something about grinding out the exp and looting the corpses. Every copper was saved up for food or water until I could afford some nice cured silk garments. Those felt so smooth and silky.
The grind is the thing. Embrace it.
