Your Favorite Zone, Classic - Velious
 
The Estate of Unrest has always had a special place in my heart. The name itself is a delightfully terrible pun. There's a random Super Mario Worldly/Minecraftesque (Notch had to have been an elfquester) underground cave giving occupancy to "a gnomish spelunker". There are giant reanimated hands, and fungus men, and werebats, and tentacle terrors - oh my! The zone boss, during classic era, when level 35 was considered "uber", was a thing of legend - I was expecting some monstrous apparition straight out of The Exorcist, so terrifying that one could not refer to it by more than its ominous monosyllable: "ghost". While not that scary, it remained a completely unique mob until the release of Velious, which was pretty cool.

Love unrest also on Live.

On p99 I loved whatever zone got me leveling the fastest.

Stonebrunt Mountains I have very fond nostalgia for it. Especially around the snow/mountain rocky area. Where the fort is.

Why must you limit it to two bad expansions :(.

Kedge Keep definitely best classic zone. Wasn't even discovered for awhile and wasn't itemized for awhile longer. Tons of animals to charm. Underwater so it keeps away bad players. Great EXP and decent loots. Actually had a raid boss in the zone and the best thing about EQ is raid mobs, so the best zone has to have the best activity in the zone!

Reef of Coirnav probably best PoP zone for similar reasons. Underwater zones are incredible. Fantastic group camps/named, useful tradeskilled drops, a few different good mini raid named and Coirnav probably one of the best raid encounters in the expansion.

Need more purely underwater zones in EQ. Thalassius was a cop out.

On Live I spent an absurd amount of time leveling alts in Unrest, Highkeep, Crystal Caverns, and Velks.

Like... a lot...

North Qeynos because of the music and everything about Qeynos is so classic it hurts the eyes.

Blackburrow is my favorite dungeon in EQ.

I love guk the most. Upper and lower. If I had to choose, it would be lower. Guk offers the most diverse options for playstyle and leading a crawl through the dungeon is top notch.
