Anyone lower than level five can't enter LOIO on this server. Go to Field of Bone and level up, then try again.

Great info. Yeah, no clue why they had that restriction but it is what it is. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Classic I guess. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I don't think it's classic (each zone opens into their own newbie areas from Cabilis, after all), but apparently at some point there was griefing involved either of lower level players or by lower level players, so...yeah.

Field of Bone is the only place newbie Iksars can play. Swamp of No Hope and Lake of Ill Omen are both blocked for them.

its definitely not classic and pretty dumb in my opinion. they already have DLL in place to flag cheaters.. why not just ban instantly instead of flag...

Something about people training zones (i thought it was only dungeons) over and over again. So they made a lvl 5+ restriction on some zones. Have to level up and then head out to LOIO.

It's too bad that some jerks ruin things for everyone. Small price to pay imo, but still annoying.

CB and DL have level restriction too.

i wonder if this is due to Fansy the bard [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

When did this level 5 restriction go into place? I have gone to the noobie area of LoIO at level 1 in the past.

there are mobs you can kill in loio at 1 and are needed for quests so it's pretty silly and not classic to restrict them

Upper guk has the same restriction
