Re: Kunark.
The order of the Kunark route was a little weird. The quest giver NPC was all the way in FoB and the main point of entry (and the hint about the NPC) was on the other side of Kunark in DL/KC.
This meant that those of us who were among the first to get to the Kunark leg of the quest, got to DL. Went in to KC. figured out that the giver NPC was probably closer to Kaesora/Kurns, evaced to EJ, got the quest, and then ported back to DL for the straight shot.
This wasn't a big deal of course, i don't mind back tracking. But on a quest where the route can be picked up anywhere along the line, it made it so that even though i'd gotten to Kunark 30-45 minutes before some folks, they were effectively in the same place as I was in the quest, because we both had to run to FM--FV--FoB. They were able to do this because they'd gotten spoilers on where Acolytes were and could plot the best route.
Doesn't really matter if only the first person to finish "wins", but it was kinda frustrating to do all of that running to discover I could have just sat in DL for 15 minutes and saved myself a half an hour.
Was still fun though.
