P99 is much easier not just due to length of time between each expansion (resulting in massive gear advantages leading into next expansion), but overall player knowledge, trickle down items to lower level players, and a much smaller server population.

Back in 1999-2000, you were lucky to get 6 mobs per round of spawns for full group in LGuk or SolB. You could walk through the zone and find nothing spawned, as there were 100-120 people during prime time keeping everything on lock down.

The goblins in highkeep were 4-5 separate camps, not a single camp like on P99.

Karnor's on P99 is at capacity with 5 groups killing stuff, on live it was camped by 10+ groups.

Seb held 100+ players nightly. Entrance hallway was a full group spot, upper zone out was a full group camp, disco was 2 distinct camps, hallway to disco was a camp, crypt and emperor were distinct camps, juggs and reets were an actual camp, shrooms were a camp, king was his own camp IN THE ROOM.
