Default What do you think the worst starting zone experience of classic/kunark is?

My first character in '99 (the time, not the server) was an Ogre Shaman.

Feerrot was dank and empty and frankly boring. The little bit of exploration I had just took me to CT where I got owned by lizards I couldn't kill.

Innothule wasn't much better, and the game didn't really open up until going to South Ro and ultimately Neriak.

Having played other starting character experiences I have to say Faydark and Qeynos were the best.

Never experienced Odus or Halas so I can't speak to that.

Definitely odus, no population and bad lighting aside there is this dumb gap from like 6-11 where they just expect you to magically find exp without traveling across the world

Yeah I agree. I have never been a big fan of Everfrost either. I know there are a good amount of mobs there but slow going, and a LONG ways away from the EC Tunnel. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So....I disagree. I started a Erudite Mage.

The starting money and xp kills in Toxx right outside the city was beyond awesome, especially when I got my first pet at level 4.

Level 5 was the drop off though. So I got a pity/free port from Toxx to BB and stayed in Gfay until....12ish. (orc belts and shoulders xp is beyond awesome). I am getting off topic.

Anyway, Toxx was the best from 1 to 5. NO one was there. There were TONS of mobs (Kobolds) who drop decent money and items to sell.

EDIT:

Not to mention the random few quests you can do, THAT NO ONE DOES!

I would say that Toxx was actually really good, because of the plentiful mobs, the Kobold camps were breakable at low level, so you didn't need groups, and Erudin is really cool and unique.

Only problem is that nothing can compete with Orc Hill, and CB for that 8-15 grind

Excluding Odus I'm going with Nektolus forest. Sparse mobs, danger everywhere.

for best I'm going with Field of Bone, Misty Thicket and WFP/EC as a 2nd runner up due to convenience of buffs at the tunnel.
