The real shock though was when Kedge had its exp modifier nerfed on Blue. That dungeon always sucked balls to deal with and seemed worth checking out when it had its full ZEM applied.

Again, I've never once heard any one express anything positive/enthusiastic about P99's ZEMs, and I think Kedge is the perfect example of why. It's unclassically low, an incredibly hard dungeon just based on the mobs, the loot is crap, and then there's that whole giant PITA "it's underwater" aspect.
Nobody wins!
Classicists lose because it's not classic. Everyone else loses because no one goes there. And I say this as someone who has 8x Driftwood Treasure Chests (each of which takes about 100 sharks, 22 min apart): I've spent
many days in that zone, and I've pretty much only ever seen people there to get an epic piece and get out.
Now, that particular zone is a little anomalous: I think it used to have a better (and more classic) ZEM, then someone abused something, and the staff's reaction was to nuke the zone. But it's also a perfect representation of how the current ZEM scheme isn't good for anyone.
